Chapter 124
Scarlett, still breathing heavily, mustered all her strength and turned her head to see Sebastian running
at full speed. “Hurry up and go after your fiancée. Don’t worry about me.”
These words were spoken intermittently, threatening to take her life.
She leaned against the passenger seat, struggling to breathe, yet the suffocating sensation remained.
Sebastian furrowed his brows and glanced at her, not uttering a word. His face cold, he quickly drove
the car into the hospital.
Scarlett, weakly stretching out her little hand, saw him holding her and quickly walking towards the
hospital. She grabbed
his white shirt.
“I don’t fancy going to the hospital…”
As she touched his skin, her cold fingers sent a chill through him, as if the temperature had suddenly
dropped in anticipation of death, making his heart tremble.
“Be well, be well. There’s oxygen in the hospital.”
After comforting her, Sebastian held her tightly in his arms and walked directly to the clinic.
The person in charge of the hospital, patrolling the clinic, swiftly greeted Sebastian upon seeing him.
“Mr. Jackman…”
“Lanny, heart disease and oxygen!”
Lanny, clad in a white coat,
She quickly led Sebastian
about to speak when Sebastian interrupted her.
woman in his arms, who was unable to breathe, to the ward next door.
please!”
“Mr. Jackman, accompany me, if you
Lanny pushed open the door of the empty ward and, with Sebastian’s help, swiftly placed her on the
bed. He quickly pulled out the oxygen mask and assisted Scarlett in putting it on.
Scarlett sucked in the fresh oxygen, feeling like a fish out of water that had suddenly returned to the
pond and been given a new life.
She grabbed the oxygen mask and desperately inhaled, filling her suffocating heart with oxygen.
Sebastian saw her face regaining some vitality, and his tense expression slowly returned to its usual
cold and aloofness.
He looked at Lanny, inquiringly asking. “How is Scarlett doing with her examination?”
Lanny, listening for a while, sensed that Scarlett’s heart was not right.
“After taking in oxygen, she regained her strength. As for the specifics of the situation, she needs to
undergo further examination.”
She refrained from speaking recklessly in front of Sebastian before the results of the examination for
heart failure came out. Sebastian tersely commanded. “Conduct a full body examination of her.”
Lanny nodded. “I’ll go ahead and get the arrangements sorted out.”
Scarlett, taking in oxygen, overheard the conversation between the two and ceased her struggles.
No matter how hard she tried, she could not conceal her illness any longer; it was fine if Sebastian
knew it, sooner or later, whatever.
After Lanny left, Sebastian took out his mobile phone and called Leo, “Do away with the hotel
surveillance and gag Dev.”
Leo responded respectfully, “Yes,”
Only then did Sebastian put down the phone and look down at Scarlett. “Why didn’t you let me know
you had a heart condition?”
His expression remained as cold and indifferent as ever, as if he was not concerned about her illness
but instead blamed her for concealing it.
As Scarlett gazed upon his cold and indifferent visage, the faint ripples of emotion that had just been
stirred up gradually dissipated.
She raised her hand to remove her oxygen mask in order to speak, but a firm grip on her wrist stopped
her.

Scarlett’s heart was stirred by the man’s pleasant voice, creating ripples of emotion.
She pressed down on the abnormal heart, attempting to regulate the beating frequency, but was
startled when a man suddenly leaned over, causing the heart to beat even faster.
Scarlett shrank back involuntarily upon seeing Sebastian’s tall and straight figure, which exuded a
suffocating sense of oppression.
However, he did not take note of it. He pushed her onto the bed and bent his head to focus on her
pallid face. He inquired gently, “Is there anything else that is causing you discomfort?”
Sebastian’s rare show of care for her was something that had never occurred before, leaving Scarlett
feeling highly uncomfortable with the sudden gentleness.
She pressed her back against the bed, pulling away from him, and only then did she slowly heave a
sigh of relief.
She lowered her eyelashes and murmured, “Back…”
This obedient and quiet demeanor was just as it had been when she had followed him, as if nothing
had changed.
Sebastian’s face softened slightly from the cold lines.
He undid the coat from her body and gazed at her back.
Three dark red iron marks were almost indented into her flesh.
One could almost see the cracks on the bones, their eye–catching and dazzling appearance standing
out.
