The Daughter in the Shadows
Chapter 225 Yunice Is Dead
Finished
Owen knew there was no way Yunice would answer the phone. She was still unconscious.
But to his surprise, the beeping stopped. The call went through, and a stranger’s voice came from the other end.
Before Freya could say anything, the man spoke first. “Hello, are you Yunice Saunders‘ family?”
Freya frowned. “I am.”
“Finally. This is Central General Hospital. Yunice was brought to the ER yesterday at noon due to a car ident. She suffered a sudden massive hemorrhagest night, and despite emergency treatment, we were unable to save her. We’ve been trying to reach her family, but haven’t. received any response…”
“What did he say?” Owen stepped forward, almost doubting his own ears,
Ihat does he mean they couldn’t save her? In a hospital that big and with Wyatt there, how could Yunice not make it? There has to be some kind of mistake.
Owen rushed up and snatched the phone from Freya’s hand, furious. “What kind of hospital are you running? How can you get the patient information wrong? My sister’s perfectly fine. You’d better check again!”
The voice on the other end replied, “We didn’t get it wrong. Was she wearing a white princess. dress?”
Carl stood up, his voice cold. “Where is she now?”
Lily stood frozen in ce, like she hadn’t processed any of it.
Everyone was caught off guard. No one could understand how Yunice could’ve died so suddenly.
Then, the man continued. The body is in the morgue at Central General Hospital. Her family maye to im her.”
Carl turned and walked straight out.
Owen, dazed and panicked, rushed after him.
As he ran, his thoughts were in chaos. No, this <i>can’t </i><i>be </i>happening. <i>It’s </i>impossible!
He had seen Yunice go into the emergency room. Elsie was even behind her in line.
Elsie didn’t die. Yunice couldn’t be the one in danger.
She had to be pretending. Yunice was mad that he hadn’t saved her first. She was putting on this whole act just to make him feel the pain of losing her.

Chapter 225 Yunice Is Dead
Wyatt had just stepped out of the hallway when Owen blocked his path.
Owen red and demanded, “Wyatt, where is my sister? Where are you hiding her?”
Wyatt looked at him like he was crazy.
When he didn’t respond, Owen stepped forward, reaching for Wyatt’s cor.

Gordon suddenly rushed in from the side and grabbed Owen, lifting him off the ground with one
arm.
Owen’s toes barely touched the floor, but he still shouted emotionally at Wyatt, “Is my sister dead or not? Say something!”
Wyatt stayed silent. Owen felt a chill rise in his chest.
<i>If </i>Yunice isn’t dead, then why won’t he say something?
Rage and grief surged up all at once, turning Owen’s face red. His scream made the veins in his neck pop. “Why didn’t you save her? She was your fiancée! Did you let the doctors give up on her? Did you hate her that much? Did you kill her on purpose? Answer me, Wyatt! Yunice only had external injuries, how could she possibly die?”
“Only external injuries?” Wyatt looked at him coldly. He walked up to Owen, eyes dark and dangerous. “She was thrown out of a rolling car. You think that’s just an external injury?”
Owen choked on his words, his throat tight. He still insisted, “When I saw her, she wasn’t dead. You must not have tried hard enough!”
Wyatt said in a low voice, “She’s your sister. Why should I be the one to save her? Shouldn’t it have been you?”
Owen’s lips trembled. He tried to defend himself. “I… I had limited ability. I could only save one
person…
Wyatt snapped, “So you gave up on Yunice, and this is the result.”
Owen protested, “I didn’t give up. We divided responsibilities, didn’t we? I saved Elsie, you saved. Yunice!”
Wyattughed bitterly. “You knew I wouldn’t care enough about her, and you still handed her to me. Don’t act like you really wanted her to live.”
Owen shouted, “She’s my sister! Why wouldn’t I want her to live?!”
“Oh? Really?” Wyatt sneered. “Weren’t you the one who hit her and then didn’t save her?”
Owen froze, his eyes wide in shock. A flicker of guilt shed across his face.
“I don’t believe it… I don’t believe Yunice is dead…” Owen stumbled back two steps, then suddenly

The cold air in the morgue made him stop in his tracks.
When he saw Lily copsed on her knees, his heart plummeted to the bottom.
Is that really Yunice?
Finished
He looked at the body lying under the white sheet. His knees buckled, and he dropped to the floor.
Yunice is dead?
