Hannah drove her knee hard into Kate’s stomach . As Kate recoiled in pain , Hannah shoved her away and exploded , “ If it weren’t for us , your damn village would’ve been wiped out ! Instead of showing any gratitude , you bite the hand that feeds you . Have you no shame ? ”
Kate shouted , “ It was you ! You’re the one who hurt Violet ! ”
Kate shrieked and lunged at Hannah again , her nails slashing toward Hannah’s face . “ You bitch ! It was you who badmouthed Madelyn ! You said she didn’t have a medical license ! You misled me ! This is all your fault ! ”
Before Hannah could react , Kate viciously tore off her mask , leaving several deep , bleeding scratches across her cheeks .
Amid the renewed commotion , Kate was pinned to the ground .
Hannah was about to lash out when a colleague stopped her . “ Ms. Gibson , are you trying to repeat the Giana incident ? ”
Hannah froze abruptly , her eyes blazing with resentment and unwillingness . She clenched her teeth , forcing herself to endure jt .

Hannah sneered inwardly . ‘ Teaching fish to swim . What a joke ! ‘
Hannah said with fake confusion , “ Aria is a medical professional . She should know better . Yet she actually wanted to take Violet’s body away ! ”
At those words , Liam’s expression shifted slightly as he followed Hannah’s gaze .
Aria , clad in a white lab coat , turned away with a grave expression , cradling the child in her arms .
A medical worker chased after her and called out , “ Ms. Saxon , Violet is already dead . Where are you taking her ? ”
Aria shot back , “ She’s not dead ! ”
With that , Aria strode away , carrying Violet firmly in her arms .
Hearing this , Kate scrambled after her , nearly tripping over herself in her desperation .
The medical staff exchanged bewildered glances , stunned and perplexed .
One of the medics gasped , “ An

“ But she’s showing no vital signs ! The virus infiltrated all her major organs . How could anyone possibly revive her ? ”

The oppressive atmosphere hung heavy when Hannah abruptly cut in , “ If Aria wants to show off , she shouldn’t mess around with corpses – especially one carrying a virus .
“ If the whole Jamelan gets wiped out because of her reckless actions … ”
A nurse cut her off impatiently . “ Just shut it , will you ? All you ever do is badmouth Aria . If it weren’t for her , would Giana’s baby have made it ? Would you even be standing here blabbering ? ”
Hannah instantly retorted , “ Dr. Webster already declared that Giana would miscarry . Aria didn’t save her at all ! ”
The nurse scoffed , “ Yeah , right ! Just wait and see how Mr. Harmon deals with
