Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 684: Now, with the revelation that Carol was not the biological daughter of the Lawsons, Linsey felt that everything made sense.

Cruz, who had navigated many challenges as a veteran leader of the Lawson Group, was initially shocked by the revelation but quickly composed himself.

Though stunned and heartbroken by the sudden news, he gathered himself and said politely to the doctor, "Thank you. We will begin searching for a suitable donor right away, and please let us know immediately if there is any promising news."

The doctor nodded in response. "Of course." As the doctors left, a heavy silence immediately filled the corridor.

Myla closed her tear-reddened eyes, her face etched with deep anguish as she looked toward Cruz. She tried to speak, but the words failed her.

Sensing his wife's profound sorrow, Cruz held her close. His embrace conveyed understanding and support, recognizing her desperate desire to find their biological daughter.

They had been certain they had a daughter all those years ago. Now, learning that Carol was not their biological child, they were naturally left questioning where their real daughter might be.

Nevertheless, the urgent task was to find a suitable donor for Jeffery. Trying to regain some composure, Myla managed to say, "Jeffery, let's return to your room. The doctor said your condition is worsening, and you need to rest."

She took Jeffery's hand and guided him back to his room.

Once the Lawson family had exited, Linsey and Gorman saw no reason to remain in the corridor.

"Let's go. I have something for you," Linsey suggested, taking a few steps ahead.

Though she had her doubts, she knew she needed to discuss them further with Gorman.

Gorman, still leaning against the wall, watched Linsey walk away and smiled contentedly.

Suddenly, the sound of rapid, heavy footsteps broke the silence.

Linsey's heart raced, and she instinctively turned around, only to see Carol approaching quickly, her face twisted with fury, wielding a stick.

"Linsey! You orchestrated this! I will make you and your unborn child pay!"

Events unfolded so quickly that Linsey couldn't react in time. As the stick hurtled toward her, her mind went completely blank.

"Linsey!"

In an instant, she found herself wrapped in a warm, broad embrace. The chilling sound of the stick striking bone echoed in Linsey's heart.

Her eyes widened in shock as she looked up to see Gorman standing protectively in front of her. He held her tightly, his arms securely around her.

However, his face quickly turned pale, betraying the intense, throbbing pain in his back. Soon, cold sweat drenched his face.

With a loud clatter, Carol dropped the stick and fled.
