Chapter 4

The shielded door opened. A strong smell of blood mixed with an indescribable burnt odor hit me in the face.

Leilah was curled up on the examination table.

Her hands desperately covered her lower body. The hospital gown pants were soaked with large patches of fresh blood.

Blood dripped from the edge of the examination table, "drip, drip, drip," onto the floor—a horrifying sight.

"Save... save me... it hurts so much..."

Her face was deathly pale, cold sweat plastering her hair to her forehead. Her once-delicate makeup was now smeared into a mess, making her look like a ghost.

Seeing me enter, she reached out her trembling hand toward me like grabbing a lifeline.

"Doctor... stop it... take it out... it's so hot..."

Looking at her, I felt not a trace of sympathy.

"Ms. Leilah, didn't you just say you only had a titanium alloy bone pin inside?"

"Titanium alloy doesn't react in a magnetic field. What exactly did you hide in your body?!"

I demanded loudly, my voice loud enough for people in the hallway outside to hear.

Leilah was in so much pain her eyes rolled back, her whole body convulsing.

"It's a toy... with a battery... please save me... I'm begging you..."

She finally admitted it, but it was all too late.

Just then, chaotic footsteps echoed from the hallway outside.

A tall, designer-clad man burst in.

It was Leilah's fiancé, Ricardo.

The murderer who killed me with a fire extinguisher in my past life.

"Leilah! What happened?! I heard you screaming!"

Ricardo rushed into the examination room. When he saw the blood-soaked bed and his fiancée writhing in pain, he was completely stunned.

"What the hell! What the hell is going on?!"

He spun around, glaring at me with bloodshot eyes, and grabbed me by the collar of my white coat.

"What the fuck did you do to my wife?! How does a simple scan cause massive bleeding?!"

The fear from my past life made me instinctively want to shrink back.

But then I knocked his hand away.

"See clearly where you are! This is an MRI room!"

"Your fiancée concealed her medical history from the doctor and had a battery-powered sex toy stuffed inside her!"

"You ask what I did? You should ask her what she was doing coming for an examination in broad daylight with that thing inside her?!"

My voice rang out clearly. Not only was Ricardo stunned, but the onlookers and nurses who came to help were all shocked.

The entire hallway fell into instant silence.

Everyone's eyes fell on Leilah's blood-soaked lower body.

Ricardo's face turned from blue to white. He looked at Leilah on the bed in disbelief.

"Leilah... is... is what he said true? You had... something inside you?"

Leilah was already in so much pain she was about to pass out.

She had no strength left to refute. She just desperately shook her head, tears mixing with cold sweat streaming down.

"Ricardo... save me... it hurts so much... my intestines are breaking..."

Ricardo might be a brute, but he wasn't stupid.

He'd never made her wear any battery-powered toys.

And she was here for a medical exam today!

He felt publicly cuckolded. The humiliation made him explode with rage.

"You slut! What the hell have you been doing behind my back?"

Ricardo rushed forward. Instead of comforting her, he viciously slapped Leilah across the face.

"Smack!" The crisp slap echoed through the examination room.

"Enough! This is a hospital! If you want to fight, go outside!"

I shouted coldly, then turned and yelled, "Get her to the operating room now! Notify the ER and general surgery! Immediate surgery needed!"

"Patient has a foreign object in her pelvic cavity, possible intestinal perforation and uterine rupture, massive hemorrhaging!"
