Chapter 287 The One Who Sabotages in the Shadows
Everyone in the operating room was shocked as they watched the black blood continuously flow from Bradley's wrist, exchanging worried glances.
"Miss Scott, don't do anything rash! If something happens to Bradley, don't drag us down with you!" a nearby doctor couldn't help but say.
Margaret glanced at him calmly. "Black blood doesn't necessarily mean poisoning. Don't interfere with my treatment of Bradley."
Ignoring the objections, Margaret continued with the acupuncture.
She swiftly inserted a needle directly at the top of Bradley's head.
"Ah, Ms. Scott, are you crazy? Are you trying to kill Bradley?" the doctor beside her was terrified and reached out to stop Margaret.
However, Patterson stopped him. "Dr. Marshall, please do not disturb Ms. Scott!"
"Dr. Hawthorne, if something happens to Bradley, will you take responsibility?" He demanded.
"Yes, I will!" Patterson answered firmly.
Seeing Patterson's trust in her, Margaret felt a warm sensation in her heart.
She held her breath and focused intently on treating Bradley.
Ten minutes later, the heart monitor started to show activity.
Bradley's weak breathing and fading heartbeat gradually returned to normal.
Everyone in the operating room breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Margaret removed all the needles and skillfully sutured the wound on Bradley's wrist.
"What's the principle behind this?" Patterson asked Margaret curiously.
Everyone else was equally curious.
This young woman in her early twenties had such miraculous medical skills, even better than the renowned doctors.
"Family secrets, can't be shared," Margaret said, "Modern hospitals can't solve all medical mysteries, which is why medicine man still exists."
Everyone nodded, their attitude towards Margaret changing from disdain to admiration.
"Ms. Scott, I didn't expect someone so young to have such exceptional medical skills. It's truly impressive!" The one, who had looked down on Margaret earlier, couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
Margaret smiled faintly. "It's nothing."
She instructed the nurse to take Bradley back to his ward for further observation.
Margaret left the group of astonished doctors and exited the operating room.
As soon as Margaret came out and removed her mask, she saw Abigail and Daisy rushing over, surrounding the bed and looking at the unconscious Bradley with feigned concern.
"Grandpa, seeing you like this really breaks our hearts. When will you wake up?" Abigail wiped away the tears she had forced out.
Daisy echoed her sentiments.
They were actually shocked that Margaret had stabilized Bradley's condition when even the renowned doctors couldn't.
Standing by the bed, Abigail clenched the handle tightly, her fingertips turning white with jealousy.
If Bradley woke up and knew how much Margaret had done for him, he would definitely like her!
Margaret frowned. 'The doctors have said he was temporarily out of danger, so why are they still crying?'
Margaret's eyes darkened. "If you keep wailing and disturb Bradley's rest, believe me, I'll throw both of you out!"
"Margaret, who do you think you are? You have no right to speak here!" Abigail retorted, unwilling to back down.
Margaret's gaze was sharp.
Margaret's aura was so strong that Abigail suddenly remembered how Margaret had pinned her under the shower like a madwoman yesterday, and she involuntarily took a step back.
"Let's take Bradley back to his ward. If there's any problem, we'll notify you immediately, Ms. Scott," Patterson said from the side.
Margaret nodded. "Thank you, Dr. Hawthorne."
After seeing Bradley safely back in his ward, Margaret gave James some instructions.
"Okay, Ms. Scott, don't worry. I'll take good care of Bradley." James nodded repeatedly, carefully noting everything down.
Only then did Margaret feel at ease and leave.
As Margaret reached the hospital entrance, the sky had darkened, and it seemed like a storm was brewing.
It felt as if something bad was about to happen.
Margaret had a bad feeling and took out her phone to call Pryce, intending to ask about Bradley's condition.
She felt that Bradley's sudden illness was unusual.
But she couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.
Just then, a black Bentley slowly stopped in front of her.
The window rolled down, revealing Abigail's arrogant and harsh face, with Daisy sitting beside her.
The two looked completely relaxed, not at all worried about Bradley's condition.
"Margaret, I didn't want to argue with you in the hospital, but we advise you to know your place. Don't think that just because you successfully treated my grandpa this time, you'll be able to marry into the Fisher Family when he wakes up!" Abigail glared at Margaret.
After speaking, Abigail laughed arrogantly and quickly had the driver drive away.
Watching the car disappear, Margaret was speechless.
She continued to call Pryce, and soon the call connected.
"Hello, Pryce, it's me," Margaret said.
"Margaret, what's wrong?" Pryce's voice came through the phone.
"I'm at the hospital. Bradley's condition suddenly worsened and became critical. I've stabilized him now, but I felt something strange during the treatment. It was different from before," Margaret explained Bradley's situation in detail.
After listening, Pryce was silent for a while, then said thoughtfully, "Your suspicion is correct. When a chronically ill person suddenly has a drastic change in their condition, it's either the end or someone is meddling. Bradley has been in a deep coma, unable to undergo the final treatment to wake up, but his condition has been stable. Suddenly something happens, I suspect someone did something to Bradley, deliberately trying to prevent him from waking up."
Pryce's thoughts aligned with Margaret's.
His words only confirmed her suspicions, and Margaret felt much clearer.
"Pryce, I understand. Thank you!" After hanging up, Margaret felt a bit heavy-hearted.
Her suspicion was indeed correct; someone was sabotaging in the shadows.
'There aren't many people who could get close to Bradley, so the saboteur is among those few. But why do this? What hidden agenda is behind it?' Margaret couldn't figure it out.
