?Chapter 716:


    Katelyn’s eyes zed with a cold, deadly intent. Only the pressing urgency stopped her from making Lise pay dearly for every word.


    Neil’s expression stayed grim as hemanded, “Lise, go get Dr. Hades. Bring her here immediately.”


    “On it,” Lise replied, disappearing through the doorway.


    Katelyn balled her fists, tension mounting with each second that passed. Momentster, Lise burst back into the room.


    Lise’s tone carried a subtle, artificial concern. “Dr. Hades has disappeared!”


    Katelyn gritted her teeth. Trapped here, how could she possibly convincingly pose as Hades? She shot a quick, anxious nce toward Carol. The longer they dyed, the more her condition would worsen.


    Blocked from moving forward, Katelyn had no choice but to push her way through.


    Neil’s sharp, menacing gaze locked onto her. “Why has Hades suddenly disappeared? Are you two working together? Did you n to harm Grandma?”


    Lise immediately yed along, her mouth falling open in exaggerated shock. “No wonder everything has fallen into ce so perfectly. It seems this is all part of a plot against Grandma,” she said, turning toward Katelyn. “Katelyn, what exactly are you trying to aplish?”


    Her voice wasced with heavy disappointment, as if Neil’s suspicions were now confirmed.


    Katelyn’s eyes narrowed, her voice turning cold and sharp,ced with undeniable authority. “I know where Hades is, and I’m going to find her right now. No matter what happens, I will make sure nothing happens to Grandma.”


    Katelyn moved toward the door, only to be blocked once again by Neil.


    “Katelyn, I told you. You can’t leave until we resolve this situation. If Hades doesn’t show up soon, I’ll contact the authorities.”


    Katelyn’s patience had reached its breaking point. Withmunication impossible and no other choice, she was determined to push through.


    ???????????????? ??????????: ???????ν?????????????


    Lise seemed to sense her intentions, swiftly closing the distance between them.


    “There’s a problem!” she yelled.


    “Dr. Hades!” someone called out.


    The medical team hadn’t anticipated Katelyn’s sudden copse. In a rush, they carried her into the adjacent room to rest.


    Katelyn, however, felt as though she were drifting through a long, exhausting dream. The dream felt eerily familiar, like a distorted reflection of her real life.


    In this dream, she had divorced Neil and was cast out by the Bailey family. But Carol was always there, her warm, caring eyes offeringfort, helping Katelyn hold herself together.


    Then, without warning, Carol—who had been by her side—suddenly became a cold, lifeless figure lying on the operating table.


    “No! Grandma, please! Just give me a chance—I can save you!” Katelyn cried out desperately in her dream, reliving the devastating moment when Carol passed away, despite every attempt to save her.


    A cold sweat beaded on her forehead as she squeezed her eyes shut, willing the tragedy to stop.
