"We only follow orders from above and carry them out." Seeing that she could get no real information, Thora said nothing more and pushed the hospital room door open and walked inside. The entire floor had only this one room, guarded heavily outside, which showed how special the care for Marlon truly was. As soon as she entered, Thora saw Marlon lying on the bed with an oxygen tube in his nose. She walked to the bedside and softly called, "Grandpa." But the person on the bed gave no response at all. Marlon's face was pale and lifeless, and he lay there like a corpse. Thora's eyes darkened as she sat down beside the bed. She recalled what Felix had told her earlier. "I asked the nurse at the military hospital, and Laurel had just happened to visit Grandpa Marlon before he became critical. I wanted to check the security cameras, but the footage from Grandpa's room had been deleted." Cold light flashed in Thora's eyes. She didn't need more to know that Marlon's collapse was no accident. As for the so-called succession decree, as long as Marlon didn't wake up, it was easy for someone like Norman to fake one. She clenched her fists, cold fury burning in her eyes. I wanted to wait and let the people behind Laurel reveal themselves, but instead, I gave them the chance to strike at Grandpa. Maybe I shouldn't have spared Laurel back then, and that shot shouldn't have missed. Wolf power stirred faintly around Thora, and Amie comforted her through the mind link, "Thora, this isn't your fault. Once we find proof, we will avenge your grandpa!"Only then did Thora slowly loosen her clenched fists, and the restless wolf power gradually calmed. "Yeah, I know." She reached out and held Marlon's wrist, using her mental energy to check his condition. His soulstone was dim, and his wolf spirit had completely fallen asleep. His body, already weakened by old injuries, had lost almost all vitality, leaving only faint breathing to prove he was still alive. But that was all it was, just alive. She tried sending her wolf power into his soulstone, hoping to wake his sleeping wolf, but the moment it touched the crystal, it was pushed back unchanged. Thora opened her eyes in disappointment. As expected, her wolf power was useless on Marlon. If only I could find someone with healing and regeneration abilities. Then maybe Grandpa's soulstone can shine again. Even if his old injuries can't be fully healed, at least he might wake up. "Grandpa, I will bring you back. There are things you still owe me answers to." After saying that, Thora stood up without lingering and turned to leave the room. The moment she walked out, the guards outside immediately saluted in unison, serious and respectful. Thora nodded, glanced at them, and said, "Thank you." Those two words made the guards' eyes flicker slightly. After leaving the sanatorium, Thora called Luke directly. Luke had just gotten home. He hadn't even fully settled down when he answered her call. "Luke, can you recover deleted security footage?"Luke answered without hesitation, "That depends on whether a shred program was used, but in theory, yes." "The military hospital," Thora said simply. "Got it." Luke nodded.
