Chapter 683 What Happened Yesterday

At 10.30AM the next day, a private plane landed at Highside.

Leanna and Aidan immediately rushed to the hospital, where they saw Keaton, Louis, and Joseph

waiting outside the ward.

After quickly approaching them, Leanna asked, "How is she?"

Keaton replied, "She came out of surgery, but… she's still asleep."

"What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor… said… Miss Hart was bleeding heavily when she was sent here… If we were any later,

she might not make it too."

Closing her eyes, Leanna felt her body shivering. Even her hands were shaking uncontrollably.

Without saying anything, she gently pushed the door open and headed inside.

Aidan withdrew his gaze and looked at Keaton. "Have you found Charlotte?"

While shaking his head, Keaton replied, "We've already blocked off every road leaving Highside, so

they can't leave. Also, they don't seem to be planning on leaving, so the direction of our plan is wrong."

At that moment, a voice came from beside them. "It was my fault. This wouldn't have happened if I had

brought Charlotte away sooner."

Hearing that, Aidan looked at Joseph.

Since he had previously carried Zoe in his arms, his shirt had been stained with blood, so he looked

less refined than normal and even looked slightly flustered.

When facing Aidan's unfriendly gaze, he openly accepted it without cowering.

…

Inside the ward, Leanna looked at Zoe, who was on the bed and choked up a few times. Tears were

streaming from her eyes, and she had to bite the back of her hand to keep herself quiet.

She had called Zoe yesterday, and she seemed fine.

Moreover, Zoe had gotten her pregnancy checkup the day before yesterday, and the doctor said the

baby was fine.

Everything changed in one night…

The sunlight gradually shone through the window, illuminating the room.

Following that, the woman on the bed moved slightly.

Leanna quickly wiped away her tears and approached Zoe, whispering, "Zoe, Zoe."

Zoe weakly opened her eyes and looked around her before looking at Leanna. Then, she put on a

smile. "Nana, you're back."

Nodding, Leanna assured her, "Yes, I'm back. How are you? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?

Why don't I get a doctor to come check on you?"

"It hurts…"

"Where?"

Zoe muttered, "I don't know. My whole body is aching."

Leanna softly said, "I'll get the doctor."

Once she said that, she pressed the call button.

At that moment, Zoe grabbed Leanna's hand, and her dry lips trembled slightly. "Nana… Did I… Did

I…"

She repeated her words several times but still couldn't voice the last few words.

On the other hand, Leanna sat beside the bed and held Zoe's hand. Before she could speak, a drop of

tear fell from her eyes.

Looking up, Zoe seemed calm as she muttered, "Actually, I could feel it. I could feel everything from

when I was in the car to the hospital and inside the operating room. I knew my child was slowly losing

his life, and I couldn't pull him back."

While helping Zoe tidy up her hair, Leanna choked up. "Don't think about it anymore. Let's focus on

getting better."

Slowly closing her eyes, Zoe let out silent tears while digging her face into her pillow.

Soon, the doctor came and did a checkup on Zoe.

Her condition was a normal post-surgery reaction, and though she had a miscarriage, she still needed

to recuperate. She needed to avoid getting her wounds wet and watch what she ate.

Since the doctor had gone through such situations before, she tried persuading Zoe, "You're still young

and can still get pregnant after you recuperate."

Zoe replied after a long silence. "No, I won't."

She and Daniel were bound together because of the accidental pregnancy. Now that the child was

gone, they didn't have something binding them together anymore.

When the doctor heard that, she let out an inaudible sigh before exhorting Leanna to a few more things

before leaving.

Once the doctor was gone, Leanna asked, "Zoe, what would you like to eat? I'll buy some for you."

Zoe looked at her and said, "I want to eat something you make."

Nodding, Leanna promised, "Sure. I'll head back to make some and bring it back. Aidan is outside, so

call him if you need anything."

Zoe stayed silent. "I think it'll be more peaceful to be alone here."

Chuckling softly, Leanna informed her, "Louis is also outside. Can I get him to stay here?"

Zoe shook her head. "Ask all of them to leave. I'm fine, and having them waiting outside seems scary."

After considering it, Leanna agreed, "Then I'll get them to leave. Press on the call button if you need

anything."

"Okay."

Before leaving, Leanna tucked Zoe in and left. Outside the room, she let out a long breath.

Louis came forward, asking, "How is she?"

Not knowing how to explain, Leanna said, "Let her have some quiet time alone."

A short pause later, she asked, "Where's Aidan and the others?"

"They went outside."

Leanna informed him, "I need to head home for a bit. Find a female nurse and have her wait outside.

Tell her to only go inside if Zoe needs her."

"I understand."

"You leave too once you find the nurse."

Louis nodded.

As Leanna walked toward the exit, she called Aidan, telling him she was heading home to cook some

food.

Aidan said, "Keaton's outside. Ask him to send you there."

Hearing that, Leanna didn't reject it. "Okay."

Once Leanna came out of the hospital, Keaton approached her. "Miss McKinney."

On their way back, Leanna asked, "Were you with Zoe and the others when it happened?"

Keaton replied, "Yes."

"Can you tell me what happened yesterday?"

"Yesterday afternoon, Joseph went to look for Miss Woodley. I don't know what they discussed, but

Miss Woodley didn't leave the studio after closing. Miss Hart saw that, and she asked Miss Woodley,

but Miss Woodley said she didn't want to implicate you guys, so she decided to leave Highside with

Joseph."

Keaton briefly described the conversation between Zoe and Charlotte and continued, "Not long after

Joseph appeared, a group of men suddenly appeared and stopped them. But they didn't expect that

during the chaos, Joseph brought Miss Woodley and Miss Hart away, and when we caught up to them,

I saw Joseph with Miss Hart in his arms. He was about to send her to the hospital."

Leanna asked, "How is Charlotte? Do you have any news about her?"

"Nothing yet, but we are sure that the group that took her has yet to leave Highside."

With pursed lips, Leanna asked, "About what happened yesterday, what did Joseph say?"

"He told us he brought Miss Woodley and Miss Hart away because of the dangerous situation but didn't

expect he would get cut off halfway. Miss Hart tried to protect Miss Woodley. That's why she…"
