CHAPTER 403: CHAPTER 403: LENIENCY THROUGH CONFESSION? OR SEVERITY THROUGH RESISTANCE?

"Daisy, you’re the only one who can help me now, sob..." Kiki wept, but these tears weren’t shed for her deceased mother, but for herself.

Daisy Taylor watched Kiki curl up on the bed, trembling and crying as if she had gone through a horrific nightmare. This nightmare had completely changed her.

It made her timid, cowardly, and afraid of the murderer.

Daisy Taylor could no longer utter words of blame towards Kiki.

"So cruel, that Ivana... she’s simply scum of society; such people should die on the spot," Larry didn’t doubt Kiki’s words at all. He felt deeply for Kiki, wishing he could cradle the trembling Kiki in his arms and comfort her well.

Daisy left eventually, and as she left, Kiki repeatedly pleaded with her to find a way to deal with Ivana, to let Ivana die in the hospital.

Because if Ivana didn’t die, she would.

The Jennings family only had her left. If Daisy didn’t help her, the Jennings family would be completely extinct.

Daisy’s mind was dizzy, and at this moment, she didn’t know what to do.

Daisy sat in the car, crying loudly, her heart also began to hate Ivana. How could there be such a vicious woman in this world?

Doesn’t such a person fear retribution?

Half an hour later.

Daisy realized that she had driven to the hospital.

Her colleague was a bit surprised to see Daisy: "Daisy, weren’t you on leave today? Why are you at work? What happened to your eyes? They’re all red and swollen."

Daisy hung her head low: "It’s nothing."

She said this and just left.

The colleague found it strange.

Daisy changed into her nurse uniform, took a vial from her bag, and drew it into a syringe, staring at the syringe for a long while, her hand holding it trembling non-stop.

Finally, she took a deep breath and made her decision.

Aunt, uncle were already gone.

The Jennings family only had Kiki left; she couldn’t let anything happen to Kiki. If, as Kiki claimed, her aunt was killed by someone Ivana sent.

Then... Ivana really deserved to die.

Daisy had thought about avenging her aunt, but she hadn’t lost her reason, as she still had parents to care for. This drug wouldn’t be lethal to Ivana; it would damage Ivana’s brain cells, causing her to forget some things, making her a bit "dull" in the future.

Even if it was found out later that she did it, at most she would lose her current job and be imprisoned for a few years, which she would consider as repaying the Jennings family for the kindness they had shown her family in the past.

Daisy pushed a medical cart to Ivana’s ward.

Confronting the two bodyguards at the door.

Daisy was a little scared, but pretended to be calm and said, "I’m here to help Ms. Ivana with a physical check-up."

The bodyguard said, "Mr. Guo already came by yesterday."

Daisy immediately said, "Yes, today Mr. Guo sent me here. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Mr. Guo."

The two bodyguards exchanged a glance.

Daisy’s palms were sweaty from the cold, scared that the bodyguards would actually go and ask Mr. Guo.

Then she would be done for before even getting in.

"Go in."

The bodyguard’s words let Daisy breathe a big sigh of relief.

"Thank you."

Daisy pushed the medical cart in, and on the sofa in the ward sat a tall, handsome man who looked like a god. He raised his head, looking at Daisy.

Daisy was extremely nervous under his gaze, her cheeks gradually turning red.

This man was too handsome.

Daisy was single and liked to admire attractive male celebrities on the screen; seeing Leon Keane’s looks, she suddenly felt that male celebrities’ looks were completely inferior.

The absurd thought quickly vanished.

Daisy lowered her head, her heart racing with anxiety. With someone keeping guard in the ward, how would she administer the drug to Ivana?

Daisy turned and saw Ivana on the hospital bed.

She was somewhat surprised; Ivana was so beautiful. Such a beautiful woman didn’t look like someone with a wicked heart, yet she had done such heinous things to Kiki’s family.

Daisy suddenly grew to hate Ivana, mostly for her aunt’s sake.

Ivana raised her head, meeting Daisy’s gaze.

A strong hatred surged in Daisy’s eyes, unable to retract in time.

Discovered by Ivana.

Ivana frowned, "Do we have a grudge?"

Yes.

A grudge for killing my aunt.

Daisy feigned ignorance, "Huh? What? Ms. Ivana, I don’t understand what you’re saying!"

Ivana looked at the naturally recovering Daisy, wondering if her eyes had played tricks on her earlier?

Ivana shook her head, "I must have seen wrongly."

Daisy dared not show any signs of hatred, trying her best to treat Ivana as an ordinary patient, she said, "I need to check your injured foot to see if you need a calcium injection?"

"Calcium injection?" Ivana asked puzzledly.

"Yes." Daisy showed a professional smile, "Mr. Guo hasn’t mentioned it to you? The calcium agent developed by our hospital team can help bone fracture and osteoporosis patients supplement calcium. Everyone knows, 99% of the body’s calcium is in the bones. Appropriately supplementing calcium can help fracture patients recover faster and help elderly patients with osteoporosis absorb calcium better and become healthier."

"I’ve never heard Mr. Guo mention any calcium injection." Ivana said.

"Really? I thought Mr. Guo had already discussed it with you. Should I go and ask him to come over and explain it in detail to you?" Daisy smiled as she spoke.

She was betting, betting that Ivana would say no.

"Yes, you should go and ask him!" Ivana said decisively.

Daisy was dumbfounded.

She thought Ivana would say no, as Ivana hadn’t seemed to notice when she pretended to be ignorant initially.

Ivana shouldn’t be suspicious of her; where did it go wrong?

Daisy racked her brain, trying to think of ways to make amends.

"What’s the matter? Weren’t you going to get Mr. Guo? Why are you just standing there? Could it be that your calcium injection is poisonous?" Ivana said airily.

"How could it be?"

Daisy denied it, her heart nearly leaping into her throat.

"Is that so? Since you say it’s not poisonous, then..." Ivana deliberately paused.

Daisy stared at Ivana, both nervous and anxious.

So then what?

Ivana deliberately didn’t say it, intentionally dragging it out, waiting for Daisy’s face to show an uncomfortable expression, she then smiled and said, "Then take out the calcium agent, leave it here with me, and you can go find Mr. Guo."

Daisy: "..."

Daisy was panic-stricken inside. Take out the calcium agent? Leave it here with Ivana? Once Mr. Guo came, wouldn’t the contents of the vial be exposed immediately?

She would be absolutely finished.

Daisy suddenly realized Ivana was really too shrewd; she stood no chance against her.

This petty trick was seen through by Ivana immediately.

Daisy was still making a last-ditch effort, "Heh... Ms. Ivana really likes to joke, you almost scared me!"

Ivana restrained her smile, speaking seriously, "I would not joke with someone trying to harm me. Are you going to bring out the substance yourself and confess for leniency? Or resist for harsher punishment? Should I call someone in to extract a confession under duress?"
