Stop Panicking! Miss Jacobs will Not Look Back!-Chapter 279: Is Mrs. Sinclair Dying?

In order to ensure her eyes recover quickly, Elias Langley not only hired a professional team but also personally accompanied the treatment each time.

But today, he really couldn’t get away.

Juliana Jacobs understood the weight on his shoulders and comforted him, saying it was just routine rehabilitation treatment and that having Raine Kane accompany her would suffice.

The rehabilitation had just finished when Isabelle Sinclair came running, crying.

Upon seeing her, she started cursing Juliana Jacobs.

"You bitch, because of your selfishness, you’ve harmed me. Now my mother is so angry at you that she’s about to suffer heart failure and die. Are you happy now?"

Juliana frowned, "About to die?"

From her impression, Mrs. Sinclair’s health was not so poor.

At this moment, a nurse rushed over.

"Are you Miss Jacobs?"

Juliana nodded.

"Mrs. Sinclair in room V1707 knows you’re here for rehabilitation. She wants to see you."

Raine stepped forward and asked, "Are you a nurse or just a messenger?"

Before the nurse could reply, Isabelle became even angrier and said, "Mother became like this because of you. I won’t allow you to see her!"

"What’s the patient’s condition?" Juliana asked.

The nurse hurriedly replied, "It’s coronary artery spasm caused by emotional issues, and she hasn’t passed the danger period yet."

Juliana remembered her father saying that he never argued with her mother nor allowed her to anger her, claiming that during her birth, her mother had heart issues and needed careful nurture.

"Sis Juliana, should we go?" Raine asked.

Juliana paused for two seconds, "Let’s go take a look."

On the 17th floor, there were barely any patients.

At the door of the ward, Raine peeked inside.

"Do you want to check inside?"

Just as Raine finished speaking, Isabelle raised an eyebrow and said, "What are you? Dare you disturb my mother’s recuperation?"

Juliana glanced at Isabelle and said to Raine, "It’s okay. Yesterday, I got an amulet, specifically to ward off evil. If there’s any unclean thing thinking it can succeed, if it runs into me, it won’t even have a chance at rebirth."

Isabelle didn’t believe in ghosts or gods, so she naturally didn’t catch the deeper meaning of her words.

The nurse pushed the door open and said to Juliana, "Miss Jacobs, the equipment inside cannot be disturbed, so you can’t bring your phone in."

Juliana cooperatively handed her phone to Raine.

Isabelle accompanied her into the ward.

As soon as the door closed, the person on the bed suddenly sat up.

He was not Mrs. Sinclair, but a strange man.

Meanwhile, the "nurse," who had been looking down all along, suddenly raised her head, eyes flashing fiercely.

Before Juliana could react, a handkerchief with a pungent odor was already covering her mouth and nose.

"Who are you people? This isn’t my mother’s room!"

Isabelle screamed in shock, her voice perfectly filled with "fear" and "bewilderment."

The volume was enough for Raine outside to hear.

Juliana felt a strange smell invade her brain, her consciousness swiftly slipping away.

Just before she completely fell into darkness, she heard Raine banging the door outside...

Seconds later, Raine kicked the door down.

However, the room was filled with thick white fog and a pungent smell, making it impossible to enter.

Once the fog dissipated slightly, Raine rushed into the ward, only to find it deserted.

She felt a tightness in her chest and immediately took out her phone to make a call.

Elias Langley was in a meeting.

The call came through the emergency channel.

The man frowned and raised his hand to interrupt the ongoing report.

"We’ll end the meeting here. Adjourned." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

As the words were spoken, he was already walking out.

He pressed the answer button, and Raine’s urgent voice came through.

"Sir, Sis Juliana has been kidnapped."

Elias Langley’s face darkened...a storm was brewing.

At the hospital, Raine stood at the door of room V1707 and lowered her head at him.

Elias Langley, with a tense face, said, "Even getting the floor wrong for Mrs. Sinclair’s ward — how could such a basic mistake happen?"

Raine quickly replied, "Mrs. Sinclair does live in V1707. After entering the elevator, I also checked. The nurse pressed the button for the 17th floor, and the elevator showed we stopped on the 17th floor, but we actually ended up on the unused 21st floor."

So, it was clear the elevator had been tampered with.

"Furthermore, the nurse leading the way was impersonating a nurse who took a leave of absence this morning, hence her identity didn’t flag any alerts."

Hearing this, Elias Langley frowned.

Such professionalism isn’t something ordinary kidnappers could achieve.

They haven’t given up on what she has, nor on her identity.

Raine led Elias Langley into the ward.

"The hospital has been cleaning the exterior walls these past two days, and they used the cleaning company’s lift to take Sis Juliana away. When I came in, it was filled with tear gas, so Sis Juliana was probably unconscious when she was taken away."

As Raine finished speaking, Zachary York stood at the door and reported, "Sir, Mrs. Sinclair found out Isabelle was kidnapped too, her emotions are out of control, her condition is unstable, and Second Miss Sinclair hopes you could go see her."

Elias Langley arrived at the real V1707 ward.

Mrs. Sinclair had just been administered medication, leaning against the headboard to calm down.

Florence Sinclair was sitting worriedly by the bed, keeping her company.

Seeing Elias Langley, she quickly stood up.

"Elias, Grandpa is on his way back, and Dad... I’m at sixes and sevens here, so I had to find you."

As soon as Mrs. Sinclair heard Elias Langley was there, she opened her eyes and reached out for him.

"Elias, save Isabelle. Isabelle never offended anyone but had conflicts with Juliana Jacobs. Now that they’ve been kidnapped together, her danger is even greater."

From the moment Elias Langley entered the ward, he hadn’t looked at Florence Sinclair, and after reaching the bedside, his eyes remained on Mrs. Sinclair.

"Florence, you go out." He said.

Florence hesitated, seeing him wearing a wireless earbud in his right ear, finally nodded and exited the room obediently.

"What makes you think Isabelle is in greater danger?"

With his calm tone, Elias Langley helped soothe Mrs. Sinclair’s agitated emotions significantly.

She put down her hand, but a trace of resentment appeared on her face.

"Do you even need to ask? Who set Isabelle up time and again, eventually ruining her reputation! Even seeing this, I wouldn’t give up on Isabelle, hiring the best lawyer in Kingsford to acquit her. Naturally, she was unwilling, and another setup is not impossible, right? Elias, you really are bewitched by her, if you can’t see this."

"Mrs. Sinclair," Elias Langley’s eyes grew darker, "I always thought you were the most sensible elder in the family. But in this matter, might you be overly emotional, even...losing perspective of right and wrong?"

"You think I’ve lost perspective of right and wrong?"

Mrs. Sinclair was very displeased.

"Elias, choosing a wife entails choosing wisely. Marrying such a scheming woman won’t help your career, she might even hold you back. No matter how talented she is, it’s all in vain if her morality is flawed!"
