Chapter 950 Was She Hearing Things? Finnley pulled out his phone, dialed Ivan's number, and put the phone on hand-free mode.
Hearing the beeps, Mya was taken aback.
"Hello, Finnley?" Ivan's mellow voice sounded on the other end of the phone shortly after, "What's up?" "Mr. Marsh, have you submitted the file?" Finnley looked up at Mya. "Mya is worried, so I'm calling to check with you." Mya was all her ears, her heart in her mouth.
Ivan answered calmly, "I have. The investigation team is going through the file. Mr. Saunders' case is troublesome as he was the mayor. Leslie Eastwood's case is hearing today. I'm 100% sure he'll be sentenced to death." Mya's heart sank. She wondered if her father would also be sentenced to death.
Ivan added, "Just now, | let the PR department upload Mr. Saunders' contributions online. | hope the netizens could be more rational about this incident." Right then, all the netizens hated Clarence and wished him to be sentenced to death.
"OK. Thank you, Mr. Marsh," Finnley said gratefully. "I won't occupy you for so long." "How's Mrs. Saunders?" "Still in a coma, but the respirator has been removed this morning. It's good news." "Ehn. Call Rowan to take a look. He's been idle recently." "| called him earlier," Finnley replied, "He'll arrive soon." Shortly after the phone call ended, Rowan arrived.

Mya and Finnley stood up and warmly greeted him.
Mya told him excitedly, "Dr. Watson, my mother doesn't need the respirator anymore. Does it mean she's getting better? Is it possible she can wake up soon?" "Let me give her a checkup first." Rowan opened his medical box and fetched some unique equipment that wasn't seen in the hospital. Mya guessed it was made by himself.
Then he attached the equipment to Shirley.
Mya and Finnley knew nothing about it, so they could only wait expectantly aside.
"Did you feed her with the medicine on time?" Rowan asked without looking up.
"Yes, we did," Mya answered hurriedly, "We let her take the medicine at the precise time. | always used the alarms to remind me." Upon hearing her tense voice, Rowan looked at her and said gently, "She'll probably wake up today. Mrs.
Saunders is lucky." Mya gaped at him in excitement, wondering if she was hearing things. She couldn't utter a word at all.
"Thank you so much, Dr. Watson!" Mya bowed at Rowan gratefully.
Finnley also thanked Rowan and walked him out of the ward.
In the lobby of the inpatient building, Finnley accidentally looked at the LED screen, seeing many reporters waiting outside the courthouse.
Lawyers, law enforcement officers, and staff walked out, surrounded by reporters.
Many questions were asked.
Finnley only heard and remembered a line clearly.

"Leslie Eastwood has been sentenced to death and deprived of political rights for the rest of his life. The death penalty will be executed immediately." Back to the elevator, Finnley heaved a sigh, afraid something would happen in the next hearing.
Mya also saw the news in the ward and realized Leslie would die definitely.
She wondered about her father, who had sheltered such an evil criminal, and if he could escape from death.
Meanwhile, her father's contributions were spread online. Many netizens reposted it to make it go viral.
Suddenly, Shirley's hands outside the quilt slightly moved.
When Mya put down her phone, she saw it.
She called excitedly, her eyes glimmering with brightness, "Mom!" Mya hurriedly stood up and checked on her pale face. "Mom?"
