Chapter 424 The Two Anxious People
Ophelia said she would inform the police, and the hospital didn't want any trouble, so they had to comply with Ophelia's request for an autopsy.
Natalie couldn't stop it either. If she acted too strongly, it might arouse suspicion. Ophelia's request for an autopsy was clearly aimed at her.
The autopsy results would come out slowly.
Ophelia and Jude went back first.
Natalie also took Niamh back to the Parks Family.
Not only was Natalie anxious, but Niamh was also panicking. "What if the autopsy results come out? Will my poisoning be discovered?"
She only knew that using incompatible foods could harm the body without being detected, but an autopsy was much more thorough than regular checks. How a person died could be found out.
"Don't panic." Natalie comforted Niamh. "Who would think that incompatible foods could produce toxins? You didn't directly poison her. Even if it's found out, it can only be blamed on Dovie eating the wrong thing and getting food poisoning. What does that have to do with you?"
Incompatible foods must be two or more types that produce toxins in the body, which is hard to prevent.
This kind of poison isn't directly extracted. Part of it attacks and damages the person's health, and part of it is expelled from the body.
Niamh was uneasy. "I don't want anything to happen."
'I won't let anything happen to you.' Natalie vowed in her heart. She would protect her daughter.
Actually, she was more worried about herself. She had sped up the IV drip, and she didn't know if that would be found out from the body.
Waiting for the results was very torturous for them.
And for Ophelia, it was also a torment.
The blow of losing her mother made Ophelia fall ill.
After returning to the old mansion, Ophelia had a fever. Because she was pregnant, she couldn't take medicine, which made Celia and Jude very anxious.
Ophelia fell asleep in a daze, feeling Celia bring her water, take her temperature, and use a towel to cool her down.
In her dream, Ophelia saw her mother. In the dream, she could finally hug her mother.
Her mother's smile was so kind and warm.
She returned to her childhood. She wasn't growing up in an orphanage but was back with her mother, running happily in a field of flowers, with her mother gently reminding her from behind, "Ophelia, slow down. Be careful not to fall."
She fell, bled, and cried in pain. Her mother came over and gently held her in her arms to comfort her.
She was also a child with a mother to comfort her.
Her mother's embrace was very warm. In her sleep, Ophelia instinctively leaned closer to her mother's embrace, not knowing that she was actually holding Finnegan.
Upon hearing about the incident, Finnegan rushed back and came to see Ophelia as soon as he got home. Seeing Ophelia frowning in her sleep, sometimes crying, sometimes calling for her mother, made his heartache.
"Ophelia, I'm back. I'm here." Finnegan said tenderly, holding Ophelia in his arms.
Every so often, Finnegan would use a warm towel to wipe Ophelia's body, performing physical cooling.
Finnegan stayed up all night taking care of Ophelia. It wasn't until noon the next day that Ophelia's fever subsided, and she woke up.
Ophelia was dazed. When she opened her eyes and saw Finnegan, she thought she was still dreaming. She weakly raised her hand, wanting to touch his face.
"Ophelia." Finnegan held her hand against his face, overjoyed to see her awake. "You're awake. Are you hungry? I made breakfast myself. I'll have Mom bring it up."
Ophelia was indeed a bit hungry. Looking at Finnegan, her eyes became moist as the person she could rely on had returned, and she no longer had to hold on alone.
"My mom is gone. We just reunited, and I didn't even have time to be filial to her." Ophelia said sadly, tears falling from her eyes and disappearing into the pillow, which was already soaked with tears.
Finnegan gently wiped her tears. "I believe Mom is in heaven, and she must be comforted because she has no regrets. She saw her biological daughter."
