Chapter 2223

Alyssa’s fingers clutched her cellphone so tightly that her knuckles turned white with the

strain.

“What on earth has happened?” Dean felt a lump in his throat; observing the pallor on his

wife’s face, he braced himself for bad news.

Yet, she kept him in the dark, which only added to his unease.

“Come on! Let’s pack our bags and head to Central Hospital.”

Alyssa was all hustle and bustle, getting their things together in no time.

Dean trailed behind, his questions flying fast and furious, “Why the hospital? Who’s in

trouble?”

“Our darling, Ivy. She was just doing her scene on set when something went wrong. Poor

Ivy!”

After hearing this, Dean didn’t linger either. They both hurried, urging the driver to rush

them to the hospital where Ivy was being treated.

Upon arriving outside the emergency room, they saw two people from the production crew

waiting anxiously.

“Why are you all lined up outside the room like some sort of honor guard?” Alyssa’s worry

for Ivy came out as fiery irritation.

Colton stepped forward and explained apologetically, “I’m terribly sorry. Ivy had an

accident while filming in the water. It’s my fault. I didn’t notice she had been under water

for over thirty seconds.”

“Underwater? Didn’t anyone check for hazards before filming? How could you let her go in

the water, knowing how afraid she is?”

Alyssa’s simple question silenced him.

“It was the actress’s own request. Ivy insisted on doing the scene without a stunt double,”

the producer stated sternly, conveying these words with a sense of reluctance.

It was not the desire outcome for them either. However, given that Ivy herself requested

to shoot the scene without a stunt double, solely blaming the director seemed unfair in

this

context.

Upon hearing this, Alyssa didn’t say a word. She dismissed everyone and stayed at the

hospital with Dean.

“You shouldn’t have spoken up for me just now. Alyssa and Dean are clearly furious. Their

granddaughter-in-law goes out for a day’s shoot, and now she’s lying in the hospital room,

hooked up to an oxygen tank. I’d be beside myself too

Colton remarked to the producer.

The producer sighed deeply, his face etched with concern. “Do you think I want to defend

you? Someone’s trying to make us the scapegoat. Can you withstand that?”

Alyssa was fuming with nowhere to vent her anger!

Her granddaughter-in-law was in there breathing through an oxygen mask, and they dared

to question her?

She took a deep breath and stepped into the stairwell corner with her phone, clearly about

to call Balfour.

Dean shook his head, his gaze returning to Ivy, peacefully resting.

“Hello?” The voice on the other end was robust and healthy.

“You rascal, what are you up to?” Alyssa’s anger bubbled under a deceptively calm tone.

“I’m in the middle of closing a deal. What’s up, Grandma?”

‘Deal, deal, deal, that’s all you think about. Did you know your wife is in the hospital on

oxygen right now?”

What!

Balfour bolted upright!

“What happened to Ivy?”

Alyssa let out a cold laugh, “Worried now, are you? I’ll only tell you this – your wife’s in a

critical condition in the emergency room! Whether you come back or not is up to you!”

Balfour’s head throbbed as he grasped the gravity of the situation. He couldn’t believe

that in just a few days of his absence, Ivy had been admitted to the ER.

“I’m on my way back!”

The thought of Ivy lying in a hospital bed was enough to send Balfour racing home.
