Talented Heiress: A Rose With Thorns

"Why did Grandma fall down the stairs from the second floor?"

Wilson's piercing eyes fixed on the doorway. His gaze was dark and foreboding, sending a chill down one's spine.

Samuel responded, "Mrs. Quinn Senior was alone on the second floor and didn't allow the household staff up there, so no one knows exactly how she fell down the stairs. They suspect she may have missed a step while coming down, causing her to slip."

Wilson's expression grew even colder, his eyes narrowing slightly. Martha wasn't the type to be careless. Something was definitely suspicious about this fall.

"And why was Victoria at the manor?"

Samuel continued his report, "The staff at the manor said that lately, Mrs. Quinn Senior has only wanted Ms. Olson's company, so she has been by Mrs. Quinn Senior's side frequently."

Martha's attentiveness toward Victoria was likely because of an old debt of gratitude toward the Olson family, but her sudden affection for Victoria was truly odd.

Half of Wilson's face was enshrouded in shadow, and his long, deep-set eyes held a dangerous gleam.

"Investigate."

Was Wilson suspecting Victoria? But considering how gentle and delicate Victoria appeared, she didn't seem like someone capable of such a thing...

Despite his doubts, Samuel respectfully answered, "Yes, Mr. Quinn."

"And one more thing." Wilson's voice was as cold as ice. "Anyone who fails to recognize who the real lady of the Quinn family household is doesn't have a place in the manor."

Although Wilson hadn't mentioned any names, Samuel understood immediately and responded respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Quinn."

"What are we going to do? Mrs. Quinn Senior's condition looks grim..."

A group of doctors stood around Martha's hospital bed inside the room. They were

all renowned cardiac specialists, yet each wore a troubled expression and sighed deeply.

"That's right. Mrs. Quinn Senior is

has

advanced in age, and her health been declining. Surgery is not advisable. I believe conservative treatment would be safer."

As soon as this was said, a few doctors quickly agreed.noveldrama

"I feel the same. If anything goes wrong during surgery, none of us could bear that responsibility."

"Yes, that's true. None of us can afford to offend the Quinn family!"

At the thought of the terrifying man behind the Quinn family-the "Grim Reaper" of Jubilife-the doctors felt their legs go weak.

"Since that's the case, let's proceed with conservative treatment for Mrs. Quinn Senior-"

Before they could finish, a sudden female voice interrupted, "I disagree with conservative treatment. Mrs. Quinn Senior must undergo surgery!"

The doctors instinctively turned toward the door at the sound of the voice, only to see a young woman standing there. They all frowned.

"Who are you? Who allowed you in here? Do you even know what kind of place this is?"

Yvette ignored them completely and quickly approached Martha's bedside. After examining her, she was even more convinced that surgery was necessary.

If they chose conservative

treatment, Martha would have less than a 30% chance of survival. Plus,

even if she did survive, she would be

left in a vegetative state.

"Prepare for surgery. Mrs. Quinn Senior must undergo surgery immediately."

As soon as she finished speaking, objections arose.

"No way! Mrs. Quinn Senior already had surgery not long ago. Considering her

advanced age, her body can't withstand another procedure!"

"Exactly. The risks of surgery are too high. If anything goes wrong during the operation, who could bear the responsibility?"

They knew well enough that while surgery carried high risks, it also had a far better chance of success than

Cative treatment. Yet, none of

them dared to take on the risk.
