Alexander quickly joined in and said, “Yes, Mrs. Landor saved Yana, and for that, she is Alexander’s benefactor. Mr. Landor, please don’t be reckless. Let Mrs. Landor receive treatment first. As for the blood transfusion, I am willing to compensate. Rest assured, the compensation will surely satisfy you, Mr. Landor.”
As he spoke, Alexander couldn’t help but glance at Susan, whose face was obscured by Ben.
He couldn’t help but guess.
What kind of woman could make a man like Ben so anxious?
Unfortunately, Ben shielded her so well that Alexander couldn’t see anything.
Seeing everyone speaking on his behalf, Carl Miller breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, “Yes, let Susan receive treatment. I’m her biological father and how could I harm her?”
Carl resorted to his usual justification.
Ben chuckled coldly. “You just reminded me of something I hadn’t thought of.”
He called his bodyguard over. “Take this vial of medicine and get it tested.”
“Yes,” the bodyguard replied and moved to take the medicine.
The test.
The nurse panicked.
She clutched the vial tightly, refusing to let go.
Ben eyed her narrowly.
In a fluster, the nurse said, “Mr. Landor, there’s nothing to test. It’s just a nutrient solution. If you’re worried, we don’t have to use it on Mrs. Landor.”
Carl’s heart raced as well. He quickly said, “Ben, I know you’re worried about Susan, but don’t go too far!”

Ben snorted, “What are you waiting for? Take it.”
The nurse, in a panic, clutched the vial even tighter. The bodyguard, no longer hesitating, took the vial from her.
“Ben! What exactly are you trying to do?” Carl raised his voice, turning to Alexander, “Mr. Nicholas, Yana is still being resuscitated, and Ben just barged in, making such a scene. Even though he’s concerned for Susan, I won’t condone his behavior! His actions are completely unreasonable. Whatever punishment you decide for him, I won’t say a word.”
Alexander was speechless.
He couldn’t help glancing at Carl.
He wasn’t one to use his power to oppress others.
Previously, Carl had prematurely revealed his identity to the authorities.
This directly caused his identity to be exposed.
Now, Carl was even suggesting punishment as if Alexander were an ancient emperor.
Even if he were an emperor, this wasn’t his kingdom.
And from another perspective.
What kind of society was it now?
It was a business society.
It was an international society.
In a world where numerous countries are mere puppets of financial powerhouses.
Ben’s influence was undeniable. How could he be punished by someone like Alexander? Such a suggestion wouldn’t sit well even with Uriah.
After all, Ben was a citizen of Coraland, and it wasn’t for a Tonican to punish him.
Mishandling this situation could lead to a diplomatic incident!

As Carl finished speaking. Ben glanced over coldly. “Punish?”
Alexander quickly said, “Punishment? I’m just a guest in Coraland, I have no authority to say such things! And testing the medication isn’t an unreasonable request. Mr. Landor, please proceed as you see fit.”
Judith, understanding the gravity of the situation, looked from afar at the frail figure in Ben’s arms, feeling an unexplainable pang of pity. She softly said, “We understand your need to test the medication, Mr. Landor. But Mrs. Landor also needs proper rest.”
“There’s no need for your concern.” Ben retorted with a cold laugh, carefully picking Susan up in his arms.
Judith, on her tiptoes, tried to get a better look at Susan’s face.
But Ben carefully shielded Susan, revealing only her long, flowing hair of Susan.
Everyone watched helplessly as Ben left with his team.
A sense of loss flickered through Judith’s heart.
Ben left with Susan.
He even took away the medicinal liquid!
The nurse, meanwhile, started trembling all over.
As Ben reached the door, she collapsed to the ground.
Her reaction was so strange that everyone looked at her in surprise.
Ben paused, turned back, and coldly said, “Take her into custody.”
“It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me!” the nurse shrieked in panic.
Everyone realized then that she was implicated.
Alexander and Uriah, feeling a chill, didn’t wait for Ben’s men to act. They immediately took control of the situation.
Carl, watching the nurse, felt his heart pounding wildly.

He’s ruined.
Would the nurse reveal his involvement?
Biting his lip, Carl made up an excuse and hurriedly left.
He had to cover his tracks immediately.
It would be best if the nurse could shut up forever.
At Appolis Hospital.
In a special care ward.
Susan lay quietly.-
Ben, having commandeered a ward, brought in an entire medical team.
Now, Susan was injected with medicinal liquid again.
Ben sat by her bedside, watching her intently.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Susan had her eyes closed the entire time.
It was as if she was asleep.
Ben gently held her hand.
Don’t worry, Susan.
This time, I would make all those who hurt you pay the price.
As the nutrient solution flowed, Susan’s complexion visibly improved.
The effect of the anesthetic also began to wear off. me.
Susan struggled to open her eyes.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt an overwhelming weakness.

A sensation she was all too familiar with.
This was the feeling after blood transfusion.
As the blood was drawn more and more frequently, the more blood Susan had donated over time, the weaker
she became.
Before she married Ben.
At that time, when Yana was seeking death, she had given Yana 800 cc of blood. At that time, she had already felt very weak, and even had a feeling that she would never wake up again.
Fortunately, she had survived.
After marrying into the Landor family, Ben had helped her recover, and her health had been slowly improving.
But this time.
Susan felt that her physical condition had not only returned to before and it seemed to be even worse than
before.
“Susan,” Ben said, gripping her hand tightly, “How are you?”
Seeing Ben, Susan managed a gentle smile and softly replied, “I’m fine.”
Ben’s lips tightened. “I’m sorry.”
Susan, despite her difficulty, held his hand and comfortingly said, “You have nothing to be sorry for. You didn’t
cause this.”
Ben didn’t say anything, but the light in his eyes grew deeper.
“See, I’m okay,” Susan said, trying to ease the mood. “I’m strong. I’ll recover soon. Don’t worry too much.”
Ben stroked Susan’s hair without a word.
On the contrary, Ben made Susan a little flustered.
She glanced at Ben. “How did you find me? Did you have a conflict with them?”

Susan slightly moved her hand. “Ben, I know you’re worried about me. But what’s done is done, there’s no need
to dwell on it.”
Susan still somewhat listened to Carl’s words.
Now, Yana’s identity was completely different from before.
Since the blood had already been donated, she thought it was best to let it be.
If they had to target her, even Ben would be in trouble if the king and queen of the Tonico were to fight her.
“Susan Ben said, each word deliberate, “No matter who it is, anyone who hurts you will pay the price.”
