Chapter 1661: Who is the Real Target?

Mufron.

Luther and Joyce rushed all the way and arrived at the Manderson Hospital where Joyce had given birth.

Upon arriving at the hospital, they discovered that the doctors and nurses who had been responsible for treating Joyce had been transferred to another hospital.

After inquiring about their current location, Luther and Joyce immediately headed to the hospital where they were now working. Fortunately, both of them were on duty today.

The doctor clearly remembered Joyce and recognized her immediately. After repeated questioning, the doctor finally revealed the truth to Joyce.

"When you gave birth to the twins, the boy was very healthy, but the girl had a weak breath and had to rely on instruments and various nutrient supplies to sustain her life. We determined that the chances of the girl surviving were not more than 5%, and she wouldn't live past two years. So Mr. Ballard, after much consideration, chose to tell you that the girl was stillborn,” the doctor explained.

The nurse added, "Mr. Ballard's intention was to spare you further distress, as you were in poor condition at the time. He didn't want you to suffer even more. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. If he had given you hope and then shattered it, it would have been cruel. Especially for you."

The doctor continued, “In fact, Mr. Ballard's judgment was correct. The girl held on for over three years but eventually passed away. Mr. Ballard personally came to bury the child.”

Joyce took a step back heavily, but luckily Luther held her firmly, trembling as she asked, "So, Iris is really dead?"

The doctor nodded.

Joyce felt her vision darken, and everything became blurred.

She hadn't held much hope to begin with, but seeing the empty grave, a glimmer of hope had risen within her. Now, it had been mercilessly shattered.

She felt her steps falter, leaning on Luther's embrace, unable to move. She could understand Christian's actions.

To abruptly let her know the truth, when she couldn't bear the shock. If after three years of waiting, she still couldn't save Iris, she would truly collapse. She would hate even more.

At this moment, Luther remained somewhat calm.
