Chapter 32 Paisley Wakes Up
Ethan
“What did you just say?” I demand, certain I’ve misheard the man.
“Well, when we got into the operating room, we discovered that Paisley wasn’t actually in cardiac arrest.” Dr Hastings shares. “Her system was shutting down, but there were no signs of severe stress on the organ itself. We ran a few tests, and it appears someone administered a lethal dose of a drug called digitalis to Paisley mere minutes before we went into surgery.”
“What’s that?” Jane asks, her little hand clutching my arm.
“Well it’s actually used to treat heart conditions in small doses,” He explains, “but in the quantity Paisley received it can be deadly, and it’s not one of her prescribed medications. Whoever did this, did it on purpose.”
“You’re sure?” I press.
“Quite.” He nods, “the drug wouldn’t be tested for in a normal autopsy, we only checked because we could see that something was very wrong. Paisley was poisoned, and whoever did it probably assumed it would happen too quickly for us to save her. Luckily they were wrong.”
“I don’t understand.” Jane says, looking very pale, “who would poison a child, why would anyone want to harm that angel?”
“I don’t know.” Dr Hastings admits, “but if I had to guess I’d say their real target wasn’t Paisley, but you, Alpha.”
I have to admit it makes sense. No one could have any reason to harm my daughter, other than to harm me. The thought is enough to make me sick, but right now there’s only one thing on my mind. “Can we see her?”
“She’s in the recovery area right now and won’t wake for a while, but of course.” He replies with a gentle smile. “In the meantime, I presume you’d like me to call law enforcement?”
I pause, thinking over my options for a moment. “Actually, I think I’ll have a private investigation conducted. I want whoever did this to think they got away with it, and a big investigation will make that harder.”
“Yes sir.” He nods, leading me through the heavy swinging doors at his back.
