Is There Still Hope?
After Eugene Jr. finished speaking, he dashed out of the room.
Eugene Jr. looked up at him, and in his eyes—despite the despair—there was still a glimmer of hope.
Beside them, Belle's mother-in-law clutched Eugene Jr.'s sleeve, pleading, "Son, Dr. Rowan Lin's medical skills are so brilliant—he'll surely be able to cure the child, right!?"
Eugene Jr. fought back tears and nodded, "He definitely can!"
Margaret Evans helped Su Li sit down. Su Li, clutching her belly and looking pale, anxiously said to Simon Yu, "Go call Sean Hayes."
Simon Yu nodded and went out to call Sean Hayes, who was waiting at the courtyard gate.
Sean Hayes entered, completely confused by the tense faces all around.
Su Li looked at Sean Hayes and said weakly, "Sean, there's something I need to tell you. Please, don't get upset when you hear it."
Sean Hayes immediately said, "Princess, you—you look so pale. What happened?"
Su Li glanced at the intellectually disabled child in the crib and told Sean Hayes, "Belle was poisoned, causing her child to be born intellectually disabled... We still don't know who the culprit is, when the poison was administered, or how they infiltrated the Prince of Qin's Manor. This poison specifically targets unborn children. Belle was poisoned, and both Mrs. Penny and I are pregnant, so our children may also be at risk..."
Sean Hayes's face turned instantly pale with fright. If it were his own life at stake, he could joke and remain fearless.
But when it concerned his wife and child, Sean Hayes, this grown man, was immediately afraid, terrified that his wife and child might truly be poisoned.
"Princess, w-what do you want me to do?" Sean Hayes asked.
Su Li gritted her teeth and said, "First, you must keep this from Mrs. Penny so she won't worry needlessly; second, Dr. Rowan Lin will be here soon—if he finds a cure, that's best. If not, both our families must prepare for the worst; third, once Dr. Rowan Lin confirms the diagnosis, you must immediately inform Prince Alexander and ensure a thorough investigation. Capture the culprit—I want them torn to pieces!"
