Chapter 451 Murder to Silence Witnesses
Just as Elodie was on the brink of death, she saw a tall figure rushing towards her.
With one kick, Cameron was knocked to the ground, and then a cold voice ordered, "Beat him up hard."
Following that, the tall figure approached her step by step.
She saw that face, saw the tension and worry on it.
She seemed to see some childhood scenes as well.
A little boy who looked exactly like this face, holding her cold body, kept calling her name.
She also heard the little boy say to her, "Daisy, hold on, I won't let you die."
Was that girl named Daisy her?
Why did that boy look so much like Alexander?
At this moment, she heard a call again in her ear, "Elodie, hold on, I won't let you die."
The same words, the same voice, made Elodie a bit confused.
She slowly opened her eyes, her lips slightly parted, and weakly said, "Alex."
Hearing this call, Alexander's eyes instantly welled up with tears.
He bent down to pick up Elodie, comforting her softly as he walked, "I'm here, with me here, nothing will happen to you."
Elodie seemed to enter a dream.
Why would Mr. Cross cry when he saw she was about to die, and why did he call himself her brother?
She really wished she had such a brother.
She really didn't want this dream to end.
Elodie clutched Alexander's shirt and slowly closed her eyes.
Alexander quickly got her into the ambulance, immediately ordering, "Oxygen, cardiac stimulant, blood pressure."
He began emergency measures on Elodie.
If not timely, Elodie might not be saved.
The ambulance roared away.
At the hospital, Elodie was sent into the emergency room.
The heart transplant surgery had to be started ahead of schedule.
Remy sat on a chair in the hallway, crying uncontrollably.
Sophia handed her a pack of tissues and asked in a deep voice, "Remy, Elodie will be fine. Can you tell me why Cameron captured you?"
Remy wiped her tears and said, "She said someone wanted Elodie dead so that heart could be given to her. That person also promised Cameron a sum of money to take him away from here. Who is so despicable to want Elodie dead?"
Hearing these words, Sophia understood everything.
She gently patted Remy's shoulder and comforted, "Don't worry, Cameron has already broken the law. I will make sure he stays in prison for life. We will also find the person who wants Elodie's heart."
Remy nodded with tears in her eyes, "Ms. Sinclair, if it weren't for meeting you and Mr. Cross, Elodie might have been gone long ago."
"Don't say that. It's fate that we met. Elodie will be fine."
A few hours later.
The door of the operating room opened, and Alexander came out.
Remy and Sophia immediately ran over.
In unison, they asked, "How was the surgery?"
Alexander took off his mask, his face full of fatigue, but a beautiful curve appeared at the corner of his lips.
His voice was hoarse, "The surgery was very successful. Now we just have to see if Elodie rejects the new heart. If not, then everything will be fine."
"It will be fine."
Sophia's eyes were a bit red as she looked at Alexander.
Seeing her like this, Alexander gently stroked her head and asked, "What did you find out?"
"I'll tell you later."
Elodie was pushed into the ICU by medical staff, with Remy by her side.
Looking at Elodie's pale little face, Alexander's heart ached.
He bent down, his deep eyes looking at Elodie, "Elodie, you have to be strong. I'm waiting for you to wake up."
He then gave some instructions to the nurse and walked into the office holding Sophia's hand.
Alexander took off his white coat, his exhaustion fully showing.
He held Sophia tightly in his arms, his chin resting on her shoulder.
His voice was hoarse with fatigue, "Sophie, I'm so tired."
Alexander hadn't had a good rest for several days, and he had just performed such a long surgery. He couldn't take it anymore.
Sophia felt a bit distressed, gently stroking his back, "I'll get you a glass of water. You sit down and rest for a bit."
"No need, just let me hold you for a while. You are my energy recharge station. If I can kiss you, I can revive immediately and even fight a few more rounds with you."
Sophia angrily pinched his waist, "Your mouth doesn't deserve any sympathy."
Alexander chuckled lowly, "So you do feel sorry for me, right? Sophie, you still have me in your heart, don't you?"
Sophia didn't answer this question. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "I asked Remy. She said Cameron was instructed by someone. Someone wants Elodie dead so that heart can be given to someone else."
Hearing this, Alexander, who had been immersed in tenderness, immediately straightened up.
His slightly red eyes stared tightly at Sophia, "Daisy?"
Sophia nodded, "Besides Daisy, no one else knows about this heart, but I think she has another purpose."
"To kill and silence, so we can never find out she's a fake."
"Yes, I checked. Daisy privately matched with this heart, and the report showed a successful match.
So, as long as Elodie dies, you will give this heart to Daisy, and we will never find out Daisy is a fake."
Alexander's face became colder and colder, "When will the paternity test report be out?"
"I expedited it. The result will be out at six in the afternoon."
"I want to see how long Daisy can be arrogant."
Sophia raised an eyebrow at him, "The kidnapping of Elodie, if not surprisingly, should have been done by Aaron. All the blame will fall on him, and you can't do anything to Daisy."
Hearing these words, Alexander's deep eyes darkened, "Aaron protects Daisy so much, so you suspect there's something between them?"
"When Daisy was found back then, Gilbert was seriously ill in bed, and your parents were busy with work. Aaron did everything on their behalf, including the paternity test.
It was too easy for Aaron to swap blood samples.
Maybe this is a conspiracy to monopolize the Cross Family's assets."
Sophia, having spent a lot of time with Joyce, was somewhat influenced.
Her analysis was clear and to the point.
Hearing this, Alexander couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
In his mind, he instantly recalled what Aaron had said to him. He said if he didn't behave, he would give all the family assets to Daisy.
Daisy also, after becoming an adult, actively requested to work in the company.
At that time, the family praised Daisy, saying she could take on the responsibility at critical moments.
She was much better than him.
Daisy, however, smiled and said that Alexander liked medicine, and she would always support him, even if she had to work harder.
Now it seems, it might not be that simple.
Daisy wanted to control the entire Cross Family as soon as possible.
Thinking that his family might have been deceived, Alexander's eyes turned red with anger.
He immediately took out his phone and dialed a number, "Take samples from Aaron and Daisy and do a DNA test."
