"I''m sorry, we''ve done everything we could."


    Evelyn felt as if struck by lightning. Her legs weakened, and her body wobbled unsteadily. Brooks supported her, hisrge hand resting on her shoulder, silently offering her support. "Are you Ms. Evelyn?" The doctor spoke again.


    "Yes..."


    Her voice was faint as if all her vitality had been drained from her.


    The truth was right before her eyes, yet the person was gone.


    "He wanted to see you."


    The doctor''s words made Evelyn suddenly lift her head, and after making sure she hadn''t misheard, she stumbled inside.


    The medical staff had already left the room, leaving her alone with John.


    Evelyn rushed to John''s side and spoke urgently, "John, I''ve already transferred the moneyto your ount. Tell me, who is it?"


    John''s gaze was already fading, his lips parting as he struggled to speak. "It''s... it''s your rival... Dahlia..."


    Evelyn heard the name Dahlia, and a shiver ran through her body. Her entire being turned cold.


    John knew he didn''t have much time left. He took several breaths, managing to continue, "Your daughter was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. The hospital called my wife to ask her toe... At that moment, Dahlia stopped her... "She said her daughter was also a match for my wife and asked her to donate her kidney to her daughter, iming her daughter''s life depended on my wife''s kidney... She offered a million, and I agreed...


    "It was only a few days ago that I found out my wife''s kidney wasn''t a match for her daughter at all...


    "Dahlia didn''t want to save her own daughter... She wanted your daughter''s life!"


    John started coughing violently. He grabbed Evelyn''s arm with his other hand, his eyes wide. "This woman is too evil... She not only intentionally took your daughter''s life... but she alse silenced me..."


    He had only ckmailed her for some money, yet she took his life in return.


    "Don''t... let her go..." With hisst word, his hand slipped from her arm. He died with his eyes open.


    Evelyn stood still, her eyes bloodshot, her body feeling as if it was submerged in a cold pond.


    She bit her lip hard, her whole body trembling uncontrobly due to intense emotions.


    John''s words echoed in her mind. Charlie''s little face appeared before Evelyn''s eyes.


    Her daughter was so good and understanding. If it wasn''t for Dahlia maliciously taking the kidney,


    rlie


    could have lived. Her daughter could


    have been alive and well.


    Dahlia!


    A furious hatred erupted from the depths of Evelyn''s eyes. At that moment, she wished she could grind Dahlia to dust.


    Evelyn pulled open the door and rushed out. She ran wildly in the rain.


    Central Hospital was less than two


    miles from Dahlia''s residence in Greenrose, a location Charles had


    specifically chosen for Sandy''s convenience.


    In less than ten minutes, Evelyn stood at the entrance of Greenrose.


    Her entire body was soaked, and her eyes were blood-red. She looked like a vengeful ghost,ing to im Dahlia''s life!


    But just a step away, Evelyn suddenly stopped.
