The outcome was just as Yuna expected.

In less than two minutes after Milo's car drove away from the hospital, Brian's car stopped at the basement of the hospital.

At the same time, Iris woke up in the ward.

In the past few days, Iris had been brutally tortured and she even had difficulty breathing.

She felt that she had slept for a long time. When she was half-awake, she recalled that Yuna had returned to Rowdy.

Yuna was pregnant with Wesley's child. How could she return to the Kent family?

After she went back, would Rowdy let Wesley's child live?

If anything happened to Yuna and the child, how would Iris face Wesley, who was her scion, in the future?

In a flustered state, Iris woke up and found herself in the hospital. She quickly looked around, but she saw neither Yuna nor Emily.

The nurse immediately noticed that Iris had woken up. She adjusted the infusion rate and asked, "Madam, how are you feeling? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"Where's Emily?" Iris did not care about herself and added, "He's the child who sent me here."

When Iris was on the way to the hospital, she had not been very lucid.

However, she remembered very clearly that Emily had always been by her side.

"That child was taken back by a man," the nurse said, "but he asked me to contact Doctor Xiao. So, your family should be arriving soon."

Before Iris could say anything else, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, followed by the voices of Brian and Joanne.

"Mom!"

"Mom!"

Joanne rushed over like a child who missed her mother badly. The moment she saw the frail and skinny Iris, who was on the hospital bed, her eyes turned red.

In her impression, Iris was a graceful and adorable older lady. She had been never that aged and weak like what she was now.

The culprit for this older lady's change was Rowdy!

Joanne half squatted by the bed and held Iris's hand tightly. "Mom, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling bad?"

Iris smiled and motioned for Joanne not to worry. "The doctor has treated my wounds. I'm okay."

"Mom," Brian walked over, looked at Iris and said, "I'm sorry."

Iris knew why Brian apologized. He felt that he failed to protect her.

She shook her head and said, "Brian, it's not your fault. It's my fault for being careless and trusting the Zhongs so easily."

Zhong Lue was sent to prison by Brian, so it was conceivable that the Zhong family hated the Lu family.

However, Iris still had a trace of trust in their sincerity. She went to see Zhong Lue's aunt unsuspectingly and set herself up as Rowdy's hostage.

Thinking of this, Iris continued, "Brian, in fact, I'm sorry to have troubled you."

"Mom, don't say that." Joanne directly disagreed with her. "If you insist on saying that, you should also blame us for not protecting you."

Joanne looked extremely serious.

Iris could not help smiling. She compromised and said, "Well, anyway, I'm back. Let's not blame ourselves. It's all Rowdy's fault. We're all only victims."

Not only Joanne but even the nurse next to them was amused by Iris's words.

It was rare to see such an optimistic elderly lady.

Seeing that Iris's mental state was pretty bad, Brian looked at the nurse and said, "Please take me to the attending doctor."

The nurse could not resist such an incomparably handsome man's request, and she nodded and gazed at Brian with an infatuated look. "Okay, please come with me."

Before leaving the ward, Brian glanced at Joanne.

Joanne understood and nodded. "Go ahead. I'll take care of Mom."

Brian and the nurse left, leaving Joanne and Iris in the ward.

Iris patted the bedside. "Joanne, have a seat. Don't squat."

Joanne pulled a chair over and sat down. She asked softly, "Mom, these days, what did Rowdy..."

Iris already guessed what Joanne wanted to ask, and she interrupted her with a smile. "Rowdy hates me so much, so it is inevitable that he abused me. However, I've gone through the ordeal and I'm fine now." The elderly lady then changed the topic. "How are Aiden and Romy doing? I haven't seen them for many days. I miss them."

Joanne said, "They are very obedient. I will bring them to the hospital to see you some time."

Iris waved her hand and said, "It's winter now. Don't bring them here. Besides, the hospital is not a good place to visit. It's good that they are obedient. I can still see them after I leave the hospital."

Joanne did not insist and suddenly thought of Yuna.

Before today, Joanne had always thought that Yuna would give birth to her child and stay with Wesley forever.

However, two hours ago, Kai suddenly contacted her and Brian, saying that Yuna left after being taken to the hospital by Wesley.

Kai did not know what had happened.

So Brian contacted Wesley, but the latter refused to disclose the truth. He just asked Brian to pay attention to the movements of Rowdy's men, for the whereabouts of Iris would probably be revealed today.

Not long after that, Dui Fang called them excitedly to say that Rowdy's men were sending Iris to the hospital.

At that moment, Brian and Joanne did not care about anything else and drove to the hospital immediately.

Indeed, Iris had been sent to the hospital, but Yuna was nowhere to be seen.

"Mom, I have something to ask you." Joanne then asked her. "Have you seen Yuna today?"

Iris motioned for Joanne to help her raise the bed and said, "I was just about to tell you this. Yuna... has returned to the Kent family."

Joanne was stunned and quickly asked, "Mom, did you ask Yuna why she went back? Wesley only told us that Yuna had left. He refused to say anything else."

"Yuna was also acting weird." Iris sighed. "I asked her why she went back and told her that it was too dangerous to stay with Rowdy. But she said that she didn't love Wesley and didn't want his child. She also said that if Wesley hadn't trapped her, she would have returned to the Kent family a long time ago."

Joanne blurted out, "Impossible! No one will abandon their own children. Also, it's impossible that Yuna doesn't love Wesley!"

"I can also see that Yuna must have feelings for Wesley." Iris looked like a guilty and restless child. "Joanne, do you think that Yuna back to the Kent family just to save me? If so, it's not worth it to sacrifice the lives of Yuna and the child."

"Cousin, Aunt Iris!"

Wendy suddenly pushed open the door of the ward and rushed in.

Joanne immediately noticed that something was wrong.

If Wendy came here just to see the elder lady, she would not be in such a hurry or be so panicky.

"Wendy, what's wrong?" Joanne asked.

Wendy took a deep breath and immediately continued, "I came from the private hospital. A gynecologist there told me that Boss Hayes had taken Yuna to the department of obstetrics and gynecology in the private hospital this morning."

"The department of obstetrics and gynecology? It must have something to do with the child in Yuna's belly."

Joanne suddenly had a bad feeling. "Wendy, what else did the doctor tell you?"

Wendy suddenly hesitated. She looked at Joanne and then at Iris, not knowing if she should say it out.

After hesitating for a long time, Wendy finally told the truth. "The doctor also told me that the child in Yuna's belly has no vital signs..."

"How is that possible?" Joanne suddenly stood up and looked surprised. "Why?"

Wendy sounded even more hesitant. "...The doctor said that it could be due to Yuna having taken some medicine."

"Impossible!" Joanne said firmly, "I can tell that Yuna wants the child. Besides, the child is her only relative. It's impossible that she doesn't want her child!"

"I... I don't know," Wendy said anxiously and innocently. She suddenly thought of Iris and ran over, asking, "Aunt Iris, how are you feeling?"

"Yuna asked Rowdy to send me to the hospital. I'm fine now." Iris patted Wendy's hand. "Don't worry."

"That's good." Wendy breathed a sigh of relief. "Yuna... Yuna... Damn it, how could Yuna ask that bastard? Did she go back to the Kent family?!"

Iris closed her eyes, which meant that her answer was yes.

"Dam..." Wendy was about to swear again, but in the end, she just asked in confusion, "How could this be? Isn't Boss Hayes obsessed with Yuna? How could he be willing to let Yuna go?"

When Wendy was still confused, Joanne had almost put the whole picture together.

Wesley found Yuna took medicine to induce an abortion, so he took her to the hospital for a checkup. After the doctor confirmed his guess, he was very disappointed with Yuna, but he was reluctant to kill her, so he could only let her go.

It made sense.

However, Joanne found it highly unlikely.

First of all, the biggest doubt was that it was impossible for Yuna to kill her child with her own hands.

What happened at the very beginning? What did Wesley see before completely losing his mind?

"Cousin," Wendy said faintly and ethereally, "I think that something is wrong."

"I think so." Joanne put down her bag and told Wendy, "Stay here with Aunt Iris. I'll go find your cousin-in-law."

"Go ahead." Wendy knew that Joanne went to Brian definitely because of Yuna and Boss Hayes. She added, "I hope Boss Hayes and Yuna can be together. Otherwise, who else can control Boss Hayes?"

Joanne left the ward in a hurry and ran into Brian and Wesley.

Wesley should be here to visit Iris.

Joanne went straight to Wesley and asked, "Wesley, why did you suddenly take Yuna to have a checkup? If I remember correctly, there is still some time before her next pregnancy checkup."

She had to first figure out the reason for Yuna's return to the Kent family.

Because the whole thing was probably triggered by a misunderstanding.

But Wesley did not want to talk about that again.

Unfortunately, even he had no way to refuse Joanne.

Wesley replied lightly, "She took Mifepristone & Misoprostol pills."

After all, Joanne used to be a medical examiner. She knew the medicinal purposes of Mifepristone & Misoprostol.

She was surprised and quickly grasped the point. "Wesley, did you see Yuna taking the medicine with your own eyes?"

She deliberately emphasized the words "with your own eyes" to force Wesley to recall if he did.

Wesley did not answer. He looked intently at Joanne and said with displeasure, "Joanne, why are you asking that?"

"Well, I'm not questioning your reply," Joanne said in a hurry, "I just suspect that there is a misunderstanding between you and Yuna..."
