Chapter 801: Chapter 804: Terrifying Truth (2)
They soon arrived at the medical center, and Sadie took her to visit Lena Hammond.
Lily walked into the ward, her mind in turmoil.
Lena was lying on the hospital bed, her eyes tightly closed, looking so thin and gaunt that she was barely recognizable.
“Lena…” Standing by the bed, she didn’t dare to confirm that the person before her was Lena Hammond.
The older sister who had always been with her, protecting her on their journey.
Lily had never seen Lena in such a disheveled, weak state before.
...
As if sensing someone approaching, Lena suddenly opened her eyes.
Fear flashed through her eyes as she desperately tried to prop herself up and retreat, her fragile body trembling uncontrollably.
“Don’t be scared, Lena, it’s me… it’s me, I’m Lily…” Lily steadied Lena to help her see clearly.
Lena’s confused and helpless eyes flickered several times before finally resting on Lily’s face.
“Lily?”
“Lily, is it really you who’s come back? It’s really you! Oh, Lily, that’s great, that’s so great… you’re finally back! Ugh… Lily, I never thought I’d live to see you again… ugh… Lily, Lily…”
Lena embraced Lily, crying as if her heart would break.

Lena was suffering so much.
Seeing her cry like that, Lily’s heart was wrung with pain as well.
She hugged Lena tightly, feeling as if she were holding nothing but a bundle of dry bones.
Lily, who had not cried for a long time, felt her eyes moisten with Lena’s sobs.
“It’s okay now, Lena… it’s all over… I’m back. I’m here for you. Tell me everything you’ve been through… I’ll make sure justice is served for you!”
Lily could never have imagined Ian Moore could do such a thing.
“Lily, uhh… Lily…” Lena clung to Lily, sobbing with unbearable grievance.
She was an orphan who had grown up in an orphanage and supported by Mrs. Gray, working diligently to earn her way through life.
Logically, she was very strong-willed.
She had always been there for Lily, taking on the role of the older sister. She had faced every adversity with calm and wisdom.
But now, she seemed like a helpless child, leaning on Lily and crying without end.
Lily could feel how frail her body was; Lena had become emaciated, and her spirit extremely fragile. @@novelbin@@
She clung to Lily and cried for a long time until she ran out of energy, lying on her shoulder, finally stopping her sobs.
Lily, seeing her in such an unstable state, didn’t want to agitate her and only patted her back, gently comforting her.
“Don’t worry, Lena, I’m here now. I’ve come back, and from now on I won’t let anyone bully you again. Just rest and get better. We can talk about everything once you’re well…”
“No!” Lena suddenly screamed in a hoarse, exhausted voice.
Not only did she startle Lily, but she also alarmed Sadie, who was standing guard outside.
“Miss, what’s the matter?”
“It’s nothing; it was my fault, I frightened Lena unexpectedly. Don’t worry, she’ll be fine after resting a bit,” Lily replied emotionlessly to Sadie.
In fact, Lena’s sudden outburst of emotion had just occurred.
When she had grabbed at Lily’s forearm, her overgrown fingernails dug into the flesh of Lily’s arm.
Sadie frowned, wanting to say something, but Lena suddenly grabbed Lily’s arm again and shook it fiercely.
“Lily, we can’t wait, can’t wait… we’re running out of time! Tell me, what is the date today, what is the date? You have to listen to me, you must listen to me… if we’re any later, I absolutely cannot let Aunt Candice’s efforts be wasted by that woman!”
What do you think?
