Chapter 2549
The bodyguard released Cecelia, and she dropped to the floor. She began to feel the effect
of the medicine after taking a bottle of it, and she could feel a pain spreading from her
stomach.
She disregarded the image on the ground and stuck her finger into her throat, trying her
best to vomit the medicine, but it did not help at all.
Lucius glared at Nollace and shouted at the top of his lungs, “What did you feed her,
Nollace?!”
Nollace threw the empty bottle to Lucius and said, “I just returned what she fed my wife to
her. There is an old saying in Zlokova that says “an eye for an eye,” but don’t you worry,
this medicine won’t kill her.” After that, Nollace took his men and left.
Lucius hastily came to Cecelia’s side and shouted, “Hang on, Cecelia! Quickly! Call an
ambulance! Hurry up!”

Daisie arrived in front of Mia’s ward and knocked on the door. Mia turned her head around,
and a smile appeared on her face. “Ma’am?”
Daisie entered the ward and sat on the chair. “Are you feeling better now?”
Mia nodded. “I’m fine. The doctor told me that I can be discharged from the hospital today.”
“I’m sorry for putting you through all these, Mia,” Daisie said as she lowered her head.
Mia was slightly stunned and said, “Why are you apologizing to me, ma’am? This is my fault
anyway. I should have noticed it earlier. Besides, I’m fine now, but you’re different, ma’am.
You’re pregnant, and I wouldn’t forgive myself if you took the food that night.”
She was the one who should apologize to Daisie, but the latter did it first, so Mia felt
awkward.
Daisie’s eyelashes trembled. In fact, Mia did not know what she had consumed. She did not
know what would have happened to her if she had eaten the food.
Mia assumed it was her own carelessness or that there was a problem with the food, which
would lead Daisie to be hospitalized with abdominal pain.
Honestly, she was lucky that she could avoid the tragedy this time, but would she still be so
lucky next time?
“Ma’am? Are you alright?” Mia asked when she noticed the worry on Daisie’s face.
Daisie shook her head and smiled. “I’m fine. You should get some rest.”
After that, she rose to her feet and exited the ward.
When she was on her way back to her own ward, she ran into Colton, who happened to
come out of the elevator.
Colton frowned and asked, “Why are you walking around again? I thought you were not
feeling well?”
Daisie pursed her lips and replied, “I’m fine.”
“Alright. Pack your stuff. I’m sending you home.”

Daisie was stunned. “What? You’re sending me home?”
Colton crossed his arms in front of his chest and said, “You’re pregnant. There’s nothing you
can do if you stay here. Besides, your lovely husband is so busy that he can barely take
care of himself, and you still think that he can take care of you? Do you want the same
thing to happen to you again?”
After he finished speaking, he took a deep breath to calm himself down and continued.
“Putting everything aside, he’s the reason for what happened to you this time. If you stay
with him, I don’t know how many times this kind of thing will happen again in the future.”
Daisie pressed her lips and said after a short while, “Colton, I can’t go back.”
Colton was shocked. “What the hell are you thinking? I’m doing this for your own safety!”
“I know you’re worried about me, Colton. I also know that Nolly can’t protect me at all
times. But have you forgotten what Mom told us? When we run into trouble, we don’t run
away from it. We face it.”
Daisie looked at him. “Colton, if I can’t even solve the problem this time, what’s the point of
going back? Go back and hide? When my baby is born, and if I run into the same problem
again, what will I do then? Run away and hide again?”
Was she going to run and hide under the protection of her parents and brothers when she
ran into danger?
