Luna's eyes widened upon hearing this. She exclaimed in a hoarse voice, "You-"
"Me?” Aura blinked innocently and continued," Actually, you shouldn't worry, my dear sister. It's just the brake cables; it’s not like they'll definitely die. If they’re lucky, they might, but if they aren't...they might live and be in a vegetative state for the rest of their lives, unable to speak or move.
"Worst case scenario, they might become two little cripples without a mother. As soon as my baby arrives, their father will abandon them, and they'll be laughed at and belittled all their lives.”
Luna’s eyes were etched with fury. She knew that she could not die from this, and Dr. Janet had also confirmed with her that the only outcome of this drug would be health deterioration, but even so, she would b e able to recover in a few years.
Despite this, she could not move or step out the door a t all! She could not see anyone from the outside world without a doctor's permission!
If Nigel and Nellie found out about her state and ended up in a terrible accident after driving to the hospital in the broken car...she would not be able to forgive herself!
Aura could not help but let out a cackle when she saw
how furious Luna was.
She sent the photo of Luna to both Nigel and Nellie, then left the room, still cackling. "Let’s see what happens, Luna. Do you think my only target was you all this while?
"Even if those two good-for-nothing rascals don't die alongside you, I’ll still make their lives a living hell!"
As soon as she finished her sentence, Aura slammed the door behind her.
Luna's chest tightened. Fury, worry, and helplessness enveloped her entire being.
She asked the doctor to let Joshua into the room, but the doctor refused to do so because she would soon be transferred into the ICU ward.
As soon as she was transferred, she would have only ten minutes of visiting hours each day.
Luna was soon wheeled into the ICU.
There was a large glass window outside the ward. Despite the distance, Luna could still make out Aura’s figure on the other side of the glass, waving her phone at her.
Then, Aura leaned against Joshua's arms coyly and said something to him that Luna could not make out.
