Betrayed, But Not Defeated novel Chapter 118

"Huh? You collected the money?" Colin was momentarily stunned when he heard that, but he quickly realized he had lost his composure.

He immediately put on a different expression and added, "That's wonderful! Joshua, you're a great brother. You're admirable!"

Fortunately, he had prepared a second plan for this visit.

Just then, Susan's panicked voice rang out. "Dr. Bennett, please come here!"

Colin rushed in immediately.

Joshua's expression changed drastically as he followed Colin.

Colin turned grim as he turned to Susan. "What happened?" he questioned.

Susan looked as if she was about to cry as she stammered, "I-I don't know. I was just talking to Emma after removing the equipment. She suddenly became like this!"

Emma's lips were turning purple. She was in a state of oxygen deprivation. Her eyes were shut, and her chest had stopped moving.

Colin hurried forward to perform CPR.

But then the heart monitor let out a long, continuous beep.

It was over.

Joshua's eyes instantly became hollow. He couldn't accept this.

On the other hand, Colin let out a quiet breath of relief, glad his second plan worked.

Even though things had gone exactly as he had predicted, he still pretended to make an effort to resuscitate her before turning to Joshua. "I did my best, Joshua."

"No! This can't happen!" Joshua shoved Colin aside.

A flicker of anger and contempt flashed in Colin's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

His vision blurred with tears.

"Emma, you… What am I supposed to do now?" Joshua didn't want this; he had agreed out of respect for Emma's wishes.

But when he thought about what would happen to Emma next, an overwhelming grief consumed him.

"What are you supposed to do? Beat this guy to death, obviously!" Daniel's voice rang out, and his icy gaze locked onto Colin.

Colin furrowed his brows tightly. Everything had been going smoothly. Just as he was about to succeed, someone just had to come and ruin it.

It enraged him.

He immediately raised his hand and pointed at Daniel. "Who are you? This has nothing to do with you! Get lost!"

Daniel sneered. "Joshua, you're blinded by your emotions. Didn't you notice the flaw in his story? Who carries such a specifically targeted body donation agreement with them? I say this was planned!"
