Chapter 349
Bowing slightly, he said to her, “Miss Torres, don’t worry. We are well prepared. If anyone tries to come here to do any mischief, they will never escape!”
By the time it was Late at night, the ward was in total silence. Only the beeping sounds of the machines could be heard.
With her eyes closed, Loraine was lying in the bed and connected to a ventilator, pretending to be in a coma.
After a while, there was a rustling sound outside the door.
Suddenly, with a click, the door was opened Someone crept in and stopped beside Loraine’s bed.
When the person raised their arm, the razor-sharp knife in their hand shone in the dark room.
Strangely, the person didn’t stab Loraine immediately but kept staring at the bed for quite a while.
Just when the person was about to attack, Loraine’s eyes flew open. She jumped up and swiftly grabbed the person’s hand.
“Now, we’ve got you!”
Instantly, all the Lights in the room were turned on.
The bodyguards, who had been lying in wait, all rushed forward and grabbed the attacker.
When Loraine’s eyes finally adapted to the brightness of the light, she looked at the attacker’s face. To her surprise, it was a familiar face.

Loraine looked down at the black-clad woman being pressed onto the floor by the bodyguards.
Many people hated Loraine, but only a few wanted her dead. Loraine had run through multiple possible outcomes in her mind, but she hadn’t expected Marina to come Even more surprising was the fact that Marco had endured his pain and come to check on the situation.
“Marina, it was you?” he said, a mixture of disappointment and disgust in his voice.
“Marco? Why are you here?”
The sound of Marco’s voice sent Marina into a panic, but she was under too much pressure from the bodyguards to raise her head.
“I should ask you the same thing,” Marco spat. “What are you doing here this late at night?”
Marina struggled violently. “Marco, make them release me!”
