Grace collapsed once again.
Chapter 887
The Salter clan was in an uproar, storming the hospital in a mass of worry and apprehension.
Isaac was the family’s pride and rock, the linchpin that held them together.
Surrounded by his kin, their inquiries came fast and fervent, as if fearing that with Grace’s departure, the entire Salter legacy would fall squarely on Isaac’s shoulders.
Manuel and Marcel were there too.
Gone was their former luster; these past few days had been particularly rough for them.

team, they couldn’t bring her back.
The operating room’s light flickered on and off.
Isaac stood frozen outside, like a statue, unable to move.

pieces.
Brittany clearly heard the doctor say.
“I’m sorry, we did everything we could. Grace’s body was at its limit. Even if she’d been revived, there wouldn’t have been much point.”
Cries erupted from the Salter family behind her
