Allie froze as Anna hit her, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. When she looked up, everyone saw a clear red

fingerprint on the left side of her face.

She trembled and covered her face, staring at Anna as if she couldn’t believe that she would do that. She said, “How dare you hit me,

Anna!”

“1 slapped you for Dad! Dad is still in the operating room, for God’s sake! When Dad wakes up, I hope you’ll apologize to him.”

Allie’s heart thudded, and she bit her lower lip. She remembered that she had just gotten so angry that she had accidentally said that Dad was going to die.

She didn’t expect Anna to remember that and won’t let it go.

“We‘re in a hospital now, and the operating room is right here! If you want to cry and make a scene, get out and fool yourself wherever you want. But, if you want to stay, just shut the fakup!” Anna said. Her voice was low, but her every word was very firm and

assertive.

Allie looked furious. She tried to break free of Shirley’s grip and argue with Anna.

At that moment, Peace, who had been silent, said indifferently, ‘Allie, didn’t Anna’s slap wake you up? You’d better shut the hell up

before security comes. If you keep shouting and disturbing the operation, I might hit you. But even if that happens, the police won’t

blame me.”

“You…”

“Allie, it’s okay, stop it.”

Shirley immediately shielded her daughter behind her. Although she looked embarrassed, she apologized, “I’m sorry, Allie was so

upset just now. So, she said what she shouldn’t have said. Well, we certainly hope that Frank will wake up soon. We’re going to take a seat

over there, and we won’t say anything anymore.”

Shirley was aware that this was a critical moment in determining her and her daughter’s fate later. So, they couldn’t leave there no

matter what. She had to stay here with her daughter even if Anna would humiliate them.

Anna glanced at them indifferently. She just sat down again without saying anything.

A while later, the doctors and nurses had dispersed the onlookers.

And the hallway was quiet again.

Everyone in the hallway could hear the clock ticking, as if it slowed their heartbeat.
