He Stole Me From My Deadbeat Husband-Chapter 452

With that, Henry lost consciousness while embracing Kate.

Kate’s body stiffened when she felt Henry’s weight on her, "Henry? HENRY!"

Kate panicked. She pushed Henry to sit on the sofa and began crying when she saw all of the stab wounds that completely dyed his shirt red.

"NO, DON’T YOU DARE TO LEAVE ME!" Kate screamed hysterically. She smashed the orange button repeatedly and screamed even harder, "HELP! HELP!!!"

It took a while until the nurses and doctor arrived, and they were shocked seeing the gruesome sight of a dead woman on the ground and Henry Grant, whose shirt died red because of his blood.

"What happened here?!" The doctor asked while rushing to their side.

"Henry! Please save my husband!" Kate yelled. She ignored the awful pain under her belly and grabbed the doctor’s collar. "He got attacked by that crazy bitch! Please save him! I don’t want him to die!"

The doctor was overwhelmed by Kate’s hysteria. He called the nurses to help separate them. Then he told the other nurses to come immediately and send this man to the Emergency Room because the doctor already knew Henry was in a critical condition without checking him further.

"Let me accompany him! I want to be by his side!" Kate said as she struggled to break free from the nurses who tried to hold her down.

One of the nurses carefully picked Baby Theo up and put her in front of Kate. The crying baby finally snapped Kate out of hysteria.

Kate carefully held her baby to calm him down, and baby Theo slowly stopped crying and slept on her arm.

The nurses put Kate on her bed again, and one of them intentionally blocked the sight of the dead woman on the floor while waiting for other nurses to come to help them move Kate to the other room.

There were a lot of questions in their heads, but for now, the nurses needed to calm her down, or else she might hurt herself.

"Take a deep breath, Ma’am. Mr. Henry Grant will be just fine," the nurse pacified, though she was also unsure about Henry’s fate.

Kate was still in a daze. She didn’t say anything when more nurses gathered, pushed her hospital bed out of the VIP ward, and moved her into the next room.

They had already called the police, and the police told them not to touch the corpse because they had to identify it first.

Kate stared blankly while gently patting her son to make him sleep better through this ordeal. Her mind repeated Henry’s words just now.

-

’Don’t listen to that witch. You are never a burden," Henry assured. "Don’t leave me, Katherine, you are my only home.’

-

Kate bit her lower lip, ’How am I supposed to stay by your side when you’re on the verge of death for protecting me? Don’t give me false hope, Henry...’

Kate’s mind began to swirl into a spiral of grief. She began to think about what would happen if Henry died because of her.

Would she be able to keep her head straight and stand firmly while Henry’s casket was buried six feet under?

No, she might as well jump and join him inside that casket!

"Will he be alright?" Kate snapped out of her daze and asked the nurse standing before her. "He got so many stab wounds, and I... I can’t do anything. I’m powerless while my man is fighting for his life..."

The nurses looked at each other anxiously. They were curious about what happened, but none dared to inquire because it might trigger Kate’s hysteria again.

"He is in the ER with our best doctor. He is still breathing, Ma’am. He will be alright," one nurse said, trying to soothe her.

"But what should I do if he dies? What am I supposed to do knowing that I have killed my husband?!" Kate panicked.

"M—Ma’am, please calm down, you’re also hurting yourself," the nurse said. "You have vaginal bleeding. We need to treat you first."

"I don’t give a damn about myself. Please treat my husband first. I’m afraid he will—"Kate lowered her head as she realized she was about to cry. But once she lowered her head and stared at her sleeping baby, the tears began to stream down from her cheek and dropped on Theo’s face. "Forgive me, Son."

The police officers arrived not long after, and they rushed in because they just heard it was a murder, "Where is the crime scene?" The officer asked as they stormed inside the hospital.

"This way, Officer," the security guard guided the officers into the VIP ward. "We have to move Mrs. Katherine Ross out of the ward because she got hysterical, but the corpse is still inside, Sir."

The officers looked at each other, and one of them opened the door slowly.

They thought they’d see the gruesome corpse that the nurse and security guard described on the phone.

But they saw nothing.

"Huh? Where’s the body?" the security guard muttered spontaneously. "I swear the body was here twenty minutes ago, Officer!"

The VIP ward was empty, but the blood pooling on the floor was enough proof that a gruesome corpse had been lying there before.

The window was wide open, and the officer had a faint guess of what was happening.

"Get us to the surveillance room. There is a CCTV in this VIP ward, right?"

"Yes, Officer! This way!" The security guard led them to the surveillance room, which was empty in the morning. The officer told the guard to show them the recent recording of the VIP ward.

They took a deep breath to calm themselves when they saw a female assailant open the window and break into the ward.

She was holding a knife and tried to attack Katherine, in which Kate fought back even with her current weakened body.

Kate pressed the orange button to alert everyone, but the nurses didn’t notice the alert since it was too early in the morning.

It was Henry Grant who stormed in and fought against the female assailant. It was also obvious that Henry and Kate were just defending themselves because that assailant was acting feral.

After the VIP ward was emptied, two men wearing black hoodies and masks entered from the window and carried the corpse out of the ward through the same window.

The officer gritted his teeth and used his transceiver to alert all police officers near the area, "We have a premeditated attack in the hospital. Search around the area and stop any suspicious cars!"
