BXBX NOVEL Chapter 47 - 47: Savior
When Frankie rushed to the second floor, he immediately spotted his sister on the ground, receiving CPR!
Rebecca was pale and weak, and the sight of her made his heart stop.
This was a hospital. Why was such a primitive method of resuscitation being used?
Where were the machines?
Why weren’t the machines being used?
A flurry of questions raced through Frankie’s mind as he saw a middle-aged woman beating the person performing CPR on his sister…
She yanked at the woman’s hair, bellowing, “Go away! My daughter-in-law doesn’t need to be saved! Wouldn’t it be better if she just passed peacefully? We can’t afford her treatment! Are you trying to drive our family to bankruptcy?”
Rebecca’s husband also said, “The cost of treatment is seventy thousand and the monthly medical fee is ten thousand. I’m useless!, Even if you bring my wife back, our family will still have to face this hardship. My brother-in-law’s family isn’t rich either, otherwise, my wife wouldn’t choose to give up…”
Frankie’s face darkened.
He wanted to kill those two people!
He was in control of the Allen family, and he understood what was happening from just those sentences.
His sister was pampered and spoiled since childhood, and any piece of jewelry from her room was worth more than seventy thousand, but now, she was getting killed by her husband and mother-in-law over that little amount of money!
As he had this realization, he made his way to Rebecca without stopping.
Rebecca’s mother-in-law saw that Keira wouldn’t move and noticed that Rebecca’s hand twitched, indicating that she had been revived. The woman flew into a rage and tried to scratch Keira’s face.
She had long nails ready to disfigure Keira’s face!
Keira, detecting that Rebecca’s heart had returned to a normal rhythm, as well as this elderly woman’s intentions, quickly twisted her head and grabbed the woman’s wrist while preparing to retaliate when…
“Bang!”
An unknown man suddenly kicked the elderly woman’s chest!
The woman was kicked so hard that she tumbled backward, fell to the ground, and couldn’t speak as she clutched her chest.
The husband, seeing what happened, pointed at Frankie and yelled, “Who are you? This is too much! Not only did you torture my wife’s corpse, but you even dared to lay hands on my mother! Call the police! I’m calling the police!”
Corpse…
Frankie kicked the husband away and instructed his bodyguards coming up behind him, “Show them a lesson and call the police. Tell them that these two people have attempted to murder my sister for money!!”
Leaving behind those words, he hastily rushed to Rebecca and crouched down. “Rebecca, I’m here. Wake up…”
Keira realized who he was and said in a calm voice, “Although her heartbeat is back, she still needs immediate surgery.”
“Thank you.”
On his way here, Frankie had already made arrangements with a doctor. He left those words and carried Rebecca away.
When the police arrived, they quickly confirmed the mother and husband’s intent to murder for money and immediately arrested the two. The crowd that had gathered was told the truth, and they all gave Keira a thumbs up.
Keira stayed behind to provide a statement to the police.
Once she had signed her statement, she turned to go, only to see Isla still behind her.
Isla was frowning.
She could see that the “brother” who just arrived clearly held a high social position. If she had known that earlier, she would have let that stupid woman make the call.
It was all Keira’s fault! She had stolen the spotlight again!
Nonetheless…
A mocking expression appeared in her eyes. “Keira, I didn’t expect you would be so desperate to climb up the social ladder. Seeing that the infatuated woman was from an excellent background, you must have put so much effort into saving her. What a shame. After everything, that ’brother1 didn’t even give you a grateful glance!”
After making her mockery, she left for Mrs. Olsen’s ward.
Keira watched her from behind, thinking back to how Isla had twisted the story around and how she was thinking only of personal gain now, she couldn’t help but find Isla spiteful.
For one, Rebecca was in critical condition, and her brother would definitely have brought her for surgery immediately. Secondly, Keira saved a life, but she didn’t expect anything in return.
She touched her scalp and gasped in pain.
She had been pulled so hard by that elderly woman that it still hurt.
She smoothed out her messy hair, sighed, pulled out her phone, and sent a message to Lewis before heading home.
In the VIP ward on the third floor.
Lewis thought back to what had happened in the car, and his heart beat faster.
He frowned, suppressing his emergent feelings.
He looked toward the door, but Keira still didn’t appear…
Was she also feeling shy?
He frowned slightly at the thought.
Also?
It took over half an hour for him to receive a message from Keira on WhatsApp. “Mr. Horton, something came up last minute. I’ll be going home for the night.”
Upon receiving this message, Lewis strangely felt relieved.
But he frowned involuntarily.
What could be so important?
Keira hailed a taxi home, took a bath, used a lot of conditioner on her hair, and finally managed to untangle it.
Looking at the hair that had fallen, she felt a pang.
Wasn’t hair also iron-rich?
She ate a portion of liver for dinner, replenishing some of the iron she had lost, before taking out her laptop to continue with the unfinished work from the office.
Nothing else happened that night.
The next day, Keira arrived a the office early.
She ran into Jalen at the office door. He’d gotten some sleep at home, and his dark circles had faded a lot. He was also less irritable. Seeing her come out of a taxi, he breathed a sigh of relief.
“I went home last night and kept thinking that something was off. My cousin drove you home, so did that mean that you guys are now living together? Thankfully, you didn’t come to work with him this morning.”
Keira was speechless.
She usually did come to work with Lewis.
But she didn’t bother explaining.
Jalen walked to her side, glanced at her, and said proudly, “I know why my cousin had a bad mood yesterday. I heard that he wanted to sign a contract with the Allen family, but the head of the Allen family, Frankie Allen, seems to have a bad relationship with my cousin. He’s coming to the company to talk about business today, so my cousin must be feeling quite frustrated!”
Keira paused.
Frankie Allen? What was the name of Rebecca’s brother from the day before?
She had missed Frankie when he came into the Horton Group building accompanied by a secretary.
Rebecca’s surgery was very successful. She woke up this morning. Upon seeing her parents who had rushed overnight, the three cried together for a long time.
Afterward, Rebecca asked about her savior…
However, that young lady left the night before.
Seeing his sister’s anxiety, Frankie promised that he would find her savior and express their gratitude properly!
He had personally witnessed the efforts this woman went through to save his sister, hence deemed that the Allen family owed this woman a life.
He only wondered what that young woman did for a living. Where did she work?
As these thoughts were running in his head, he unexpectedly saw Keira, who was waiting for the elevator!
