Chapter 315
“What’s wrong, Ms. White?!” Liv cried even as she tried to help Kim to her feet, just as the White family’s men arrived.
The bodyguard in the lead saw that Kim was unconscious and quickly asked, “What happened to Ms. White?”
“She was hit when some hitmen attacked,” Liv quickly said.
“Quick, get her to the hospital.” The bodyguard quickly carried Kim into the car, which sped straight to Riverton City Hospital.
After a surgery that lasted an entire night, Kim was finally kept out of danger.
Eron White, the head of the White family, arrived just as dawn arrived and asked the bodyguards, “How is she?”
They kept their heads down in silence as one answered, “A gang of hitmen attacked her, and she sustained internal injuries. But she’s safe now.”
“What do I pay you for?!” Eron snapped furiously. “There are so many of you, and she still got hurt?!”
Liv explained, “I take full responsibility, Mr. White. Ms. White wanted to take a stroll, and I couldn’t stop her.”
Eron turned toward Liv
She was Kim’s bodyguard, best friend, and an heiress herself, so he would not throw a fit at her.
“Do you know who they were?” he asked instead.
Liv thought about it. “They’re from Skyhawk Sect… That’s what they said.”
“Skyhawk Sect?!”
Eron gasped and quickly said, “Well, as long as Kim’s safe.”
Hali King, the chief of Riverton City Hospital stepped out in a lab coat just then.
The White family quickly surrounded him, with Eron asking, “How’s my daughter?”
Hali scowled. “She’s safe, but things don’t look too good. Her organs were hit, and her veins. and muscles ruptured.”
“T–Then do something!” Eron quickly said. “I can pay you however much you want, as long as you save her!”
Hali was still scowling. “I don’t think I can help here.”
Even though he had a double specialty in cardiology and neurology, Kim’s internal injury was not in his domain.
“You can’t? Aren’t you the chief of this hospital? What do they pay you for?!” Eron bellowed in agitation, his face contorting in rage as his words grew hostile.
Concerned that this would lead to more drama, Hali quickly said, “Calm down, sir. I said I

couldn’t help, but there is no lack of talents here in Riverton. In fact, I know a friend who can definitely help.”
“Then what are you waiting for? Bring him here!” Eron quickly said.
“Just wait a moment,” Hali said, and hurried to his office to call Frank.
Not only was Frank adept at treating internal injuries, but his Ichor Pill was something else entirely—he was the best man for the job.
Meanwhile, Eron hurried to Kim’s ward.
He found her daughter lying in bed, completely drained and her face pale.
“Dad…” Kim tried to sit up, but Eron quickly stopped her.
