Chapter 1046

Irene’s heart skipped a beat even as she stood outside the ward, and she could not hide the quiver in her voice. "It's

that serious?"

She was afraid to imagine how bad things were for Lulu that the officer would say something like that.

Nonetheless, he said, "Go inside. You'll see.”

With that, Irene opened the door into the single-person ward.

There was a person laying in the bed placed next to the window, and Irene strode over when she saw that person.

However, Irene's pace was somber and she was afraid that something terrible had really happened to Lulu... until

she stopped in her tracks suddenly.

She could not recognize if the person was Lulu, since the person's face was bandaged.

Irene turned, and the officer at the door nodded. "It's her."

Irene gasped, her legs suddenly feeling like they were made of lead and weighing a ton.

She was so close... yet the distance between her and Lulu felt so far!

In truth, she was just afraid of moving closer.

Nonetheless, she worked hard to control her breathing and slowly walked to the bed.

If the officer did not tell Irene that the person on the bed was Lulu, Irene would never have recognized Lulu.

Irene pursed her lips in disbelief, her heart aching so much it hurt to breathe.

How did this happen? What did Lulu go through?

Irene could not calm down for a long time as she felt like a storm was hitting her chest repeatedly!

The officer entered then and said, "I called you here to talk to her, to convince her to stay alive."

"Why did this happen to her?" Irene asked.

"Lulu wanted to avenge Captain York's death and volunteered to work undercover-"

Irene cut him short before he could finish. "How could you agree to it?! If Martin's dead, shouldn't you be protecting

his family?!"

Her voice choked with tears-a good man like Martin was lost, just like that.

And now, this happened to Lulu? How could anyone not feel pain and heartbreak?!

"We didn't agree to it, but she insisted. We had no choice..."

Silence ensued, until Irene asked, "Then? What happened after that?"

"Something unexpected happened. Everything went smoothly when she started out, risking everything including

sleeping around to find evidence against the perps, but we were caught by surprise when we tried to make the

arrest. They somehow caught on that Lulu was undercover and were bent on killing her—we did our best to save

her, but she still got hurt... She sustained too many injuries, and I think her face is permanently disfigured."

It was not easy to save Lulu either.

"I'll take her away," Irene said.

She would get Lulu the best doctors and bring Lulu to the best environment where she could take care of Lulu.

Having resigned from her work now, Irene also had Sheryl, who would take care of her two children in Franconia.

She was also acquainted with many doctors, and there might still be a chance to save Lulu.

"But..."

"Ask your superiors, but I'm taking her away one way or another."

Irene was determined.

Lulu would only suffer more here now that Martin was gone, and no one would take care of her.

She might even die if she stayed.

"I'll ask them," the officer said, but Irene ignored him.

She would take Lulu away whether anyone agreed to it, and she sat down at the chair beside Lulu's bed.

Her chest felt stuffy, and she had trouble breathing seeing Lulu like that- Lulu had really suffered too much and now

ended up like this...

"W-What are you doing here?"
