Stop Panicking! Miss Jacobs will Not Look Back!-Chapter 292: If This World Won’t Let Her Go, Then Let’s Destroy It Together
Isabelle Sinclair is dead, but in her eyes, she was a happy person, after all, no one has ever been able to care for her to this extent.
"She used a bedsheet, knelt, and hanged herself. By the time she was discovered, she wasn’t breathing anymore. Sent to the hospital, kept going with a cardiopulmonary resuscitation machine, waiting for Mrs. Sinclair to arrive..."
Zachary York paused here.
"Mrs. Sinclair should be here by now."
Elias Langley thought for a moment, then turned to look at Juliana Jacobs, "I need to go and see."
Juliana was about to speak, but Zachary York reported again: "Before Isabelle Sinclair died, she left a letter of indictment, in which she constantly accused Mrs. Sinclair, saying that Mrs. Sinclair had been persecuting her because of personal grievances, using power to force her to despair. In the end, she said she died unwillingly, but there was no choice, she hated Mrs. Sinclair."
Elias Langley frowned deeply upon hearing this.
"Sir," Zachary York didn’t dare to look up at Juliana, "although the entire letter slanders Mrs. Sinclair, if this matter is not handled properly, it will affect your reputation."
"What do you want me to do then?" Juliana’s voice was calm, "Should I go hang myself too, leave a note, and protect your gentleman’s reputation?"
"Juliana!" Elias Langley grasped her hand again, "I will think of a way to handle it, don’t let your imagination run wild."
Juliana was not mad at Zachary York, she was just growing weary of this world.
"Elias Langley, I’m just a big problem, maybe I’m destined to be a jinx; we shouldn’t have been together."
"Don’t say such nonsense!"
As soon as Elias Langley spoke, Raine Kane came running.
"Sir, Juliana, Mrs. Sinclair ordered the doctor to turn off Miss Shaw’s life support system and stop her life-sustaining drugs."
Juliana immediately threw Elias Langley off and rushed to Summer Shaw’s intensive care unit.
Mrs. Sinclair remained, waiting for her.
Even Florence Sinclair was in the room.
Seeing Juliana, a provocative look appeared in her eyes.
But as soon as Elias Langley followed behind, she quickly concealed her triumphant expression.
"Restore her life support system!"
Juliana stared at Mrs. Sinclair, her eyes almost shooting sparks.
Mrs. Sinclair slowly walked in front of her, raising her hand to deliver a slap.
"Who taught you to be so unruly!"
Juliana retaliated with a slap.
Mid-air, Elias Langley caught her wrist, pulling her gently into his embrace.
Juliana struggled a few times but couldn’t break free from his arms.
"Mrs. Sinclair," Elias Langley’s voice devoid of warmth, "venting your anger on the life of an innocent patient is not the way of the Sinclairs."
"Innocent?" Mrs. Sinclair coldly laughed, "Is my Isabelle not innocent? She was forced to relinquish her young life undeservedly, why?"
"Based solely on a letter, do you intend to judge her?" Elias Langley retorted.
"I want her to kneel and confess to my daughter’s corpse, I want the law to punish her. Otherwise, her friend must die!"
"Mom, calm down, be careful of your health." Florence Sinclair hurriedly stepped forward to comfort, then turned to Juliana, pretending to counsel, "Miss Jacobs, if you did something wrong, you should admit it. Do you want to save face and watch your best friend..."
Florence’s words were cut off because Juliana, tightly held in Elias Langley’s arms, suddenly kicked her in the abdomen.
"Ah!"
Florence wasn’t prepared, falling backward to the ground, her face contorted with pain.
"Bullying my daughter again, you dare!"
The rage of Mrs. Sinclair was ignited instantly, stepping forward to slap Juliana once more.
"Just try and touch her again!"
Elias Langley lifted his arm to shield Juliana’s face.
His stance was like a mountain, his gaze cold and sharp.
Since he had never used such an aura against the Sinclairs, Mrs. Sinclair was taken aback, her raised hand frozen in mid-air.
"Elias, how dare you..."
"Isabelle Sinclair’s death will be investigated by the prison, and an explanation will be given to the family. But until the truth is uncovered, your actions will only cause irreversible mistakes."
At this moment, Zachary York led Summer Shaw’s attending doctor and several nurses rushing over.
"Rescue her immediately! Regarding this matter, I will propose a motion of accountability to your superiors. If the patient suffers any mishap, the whole hospital will not escape accountability!" Zachary York sharply commanded.
The attending doctor first glanced at Mrs. Sinclair, then at Elias Langley.
Seeing his grim expression, he dared not hesitate, and immediately ran to the equipment to operate it.
Meanwhile, the nurses also hurriedly reestablished the intravenous line for Summer Shaw.
"Elias Langley, I watched you grow up. You know how the Sinclairs have treated you! Do you really want to be an ungrateful person because of her?"
Elias Langley’s gaze was terrifyingly cold, "If she really forced Isabelle Sinclair to death, I would not condone it. But if someone framed her, I will ensure they meet the same fate as Isabelle Sinclair!"
Florence Sinclair held her breath, climbing back up.
Mrs. Sinclair closed her eyes momentarily due to Elias Langley’s words.
"Well, very well. If you want to protect her, then bear the consequences for her. Elias Langley, your life started from my father, and you grew under my and my husband’s watchful eyes. This great grace isn’t something you can brush off with a trivial act."
"From today, any Sinclair affair requiring your coordination, needing your resources, you shall not refuse for any reason. Especially Florence’s matters, if she seeks you, you must comply. This is the price you pay for playing hero today!"
Upon hearing this, Juliana pushed Elias Langley aside and retreated from his embrace.
"Why is Mrs. Sinclair in such a hurry to shove her adopted daughter into someone else’s husband’s arms? Is it because Florence is soon to be abandoned by the Hughes Family, and you’re eager to find her a match? Or could it be, the daughter you raised is only fit to be ’clearance sale’ in this manner?"
Juliana’s venomous words pierced through the facade of Mrs. Sinclair.
The color drained from Mrs. Sinclair’s face instantly; she stared at Juliana incredulously, lips trembling violently, wanting to speak but her vision darkened, and her body fell backward.
Florence Sinclair caught her.
"Mom, what’s wrong? Mom..."
Elias Langley decisively shouted to the stunned doctor nearby: "What are you standing there for? Get Mrs. Sinclair to emergency immediately!"
Only then did the doctors and nurses snap out of their daze, having just tended to Summer Shaw, they frantically took Mrs. Sinclair from Florence Sinclair’s hands and rushed her to the emergency room.
Afraid of being targeted, Florence Sinclair quickly followed them out.
"Juliana, you shouldn’t have spoken to Mrs. Sinclair like that."
Although Elias Langley spoke more gently to Juliana, she didn’t appreciate it.
She sneered, meeting his anxious gaze.
"So you want her to throw women your way, huh?"
Elias Langley furrowed his brow, "You’re being unreasonable again."
"Elias Langley, listen carefully." Juliana’s eyes were icy cold, "Today, if as your wife I don’t have the ability to keep such scheming people out of my friend’s hospital room, then I can only think that I married the wrong person."
With that said, she ignored his now moody face, turned on her heels, and left.
Zachary York cautiously approached, "Sir, the conflict between Mrs. Sinclair and your wife cannot be resolved. The situation forces you, you may have to make a choice."
Elias Langley’s face revealed no emotions, but deep in his eyes, dark currents surged beneath the surface...
Juliana led Raine Kane into the car but didn’t leave immediately.
She was tired of these manipulative schemes. Since the world wouldn’t let her go, then let’s burn together!
"Raine Kane," her voice was terrifyingly calm, "go and bring Florence Sinclair to me."
