When Nurse Nannie walked in, I could feel the tension spike in the room.

"Lily, what brings you here for injections? Did you check in first?"

"Um, Nannie, I, I just..."

Lily was stumbling over her words, clearly flustered, while Vinson had a firm grip on her wrist.

"I saw you injecting something from your pocket into the vial. Hand it over!"

His tone was icy, not caring whether Lily struggled or not, he reached straight into her pocket.

To everyone's surprise, there was indeed a vial in there. Nannie's face turned pale as she handed it over.

"Lily, the patient is allergic to this medication. Didn't you know?"

All eyes turned to Jenny as she just collapsed onto the floor, bursting into tears.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I..."

Seeing her like this, I guessed she was manipulated.

I softened my voice, "Lily, right? We don't know each other; you wouldn't harm me. But someone paid you to do this, right?"

She nodded then shook her head in desperation.

"Ms. Crawford, I swear I didn't know anything."

I continued to reassure her, "Since the needle hasn't been injected, it's considered an attempted crime. Just tell us who's behind this, and you'll be fine."

"I can also testify that you were coerced. This wasn't your intention."
