Douglas, who was in the ward, screamed miserably. Shannon's cries for help stopped abruptly, and she slumped to the ground, her legs soft.
The doctors who rushed over looked sternly at the bodyguards blocking the door. "Please get out of the way. This is the hospital. We have to be responsible for every patient!"
The bodyguards refused to step aside. Without Avery's orders, they would continue to guard the door, and they wouldn't let anyone in.
Shannon stood up from the ground with a pale face. Just as she was about to argue, the door was opened from the inside.
The doctors were about to go in immediately, but Gustave stepped forward to stop them, saying, "It's just a family matter. Please give us some time before you go inside."
Shannon looked at Gustave in disbelief. "Gustave, are you still taking Avery's side? He hurt Douglas, your uncle!"
As she spoke, she was in a hurry to enter.
