Pampered By The Ruthless Underground Boss

Chapter 319:

The realization that Henrik’s defense was aimed at Khloe made her tighten her grip on the syringe. With a deep breath, she proceeded to inject the medicine into Izabella. She had full confidence in the medicine. It was the result of a collaboration with her mentor overseas, incorporating the latest advancements in blood disorder treatments from the Dayton family’s laboratory. The medicine had already been prepared; the current act of preparation was simply for show.

This was nothing more than an opportunity for her to showcase her skills, though it came at the steep price of putting Izabella’s life in jeopardy.

As Sheri injected the medicine, a peculiar scent filled the air. Khloe caught it, her pupils dilating in alarm, and she shouted, “Stop! Don’t inject it, or her organs will shut down!”

Her urgent warning caught everyone off guard. Sheri hesitated for a split second but quickly steadied herself and finished the injection.

For a moment, Khloe’s words left the crowd in stunned silence, but soon, laughter erupted around the room.

“What absurdity are you talking about now? Sheri’s medicine must have been carefully crafted. There’s no way it would make Izabella’s organs fail.”

“I’ve heard that the Dayton family shares a close bond with Henrik. Sheri and Henrik are quite familiar with each other. Could Khloe be jealous and targeting Sheri because of it?”

“Absolutely! Khloe is so petty; she can’t stand Sheri getting more attention than her.”

Once the injection was done, Sheri rose gracefully, her expression calm and composed. “Miss, I’m not sure what your intentions are with Izabella, but your constant interference in my efforts to help her is disrespectful to the patient and disruptive to me.”

With a sigh, Sheri continued, “I don’t wish to be rude, but Ashton, would you mind asking this lady to step away for a while? Once Izabella has recovered, she can come back.”

Ashton hesitated. Though he was irritated with Khloe, her potential ties to Magician and her position as Henrik’s fiancée made Ashton more inclined to tolerate her.

Just then, Izabella, who had been unconscious, shivered and abruptly opened her eyes.noveldrama

“Look, she’s awake!” exclaimed an attentive guest.

Everyone turned their gaze to her, and Ashton, overcome with joy, rushed to kneel beside Izabella. “Izabella, you’re awake. How do you feel?”

Izabella gave a faint nod. “I’m okay.”

Witnessing this, the crowd showered Sheri with praise. “Sheri is incredible. With just one injection, she brought Izabella back to life.”

“No wonder she’s a famous doctor from Ouiswell University Hospital. Her medical skills are nothing short of miraculous.”

“Sheri is truly an angel. Without her, Izabella would have been in grave danger.”

Sheri smiled humbly, her demeanor calm and composed. “Thank you, but this is simply my job. There’s no need for praise.”

Her composed and graceful manner earned her even more admiration from those watching.

The mood was upbeat, and everyone felt a sense of relief. Khloe, however, looked at Izabella with a serious expression and said, “Mr. Douglas, it’s time to say your final goodbyes to your wife. She only has a few minutes left.”

Khloe’s words landed like a bombshell, instantly silencing the room. The joy that had filled the air vanished, and everyone turned to her, their eyes wide with disbelief, filled with both doubt and anger.

“What are you talking about? Sheri just brought Izabella back to consciousness. How could she possibly be on the brink of death?”

“Stop causing panic. Just because you’re jealous of Sheri doesn’t mean you have to be so cruel.”
