Nina could not help but stagger when she heard what the nurse said. Nina did not give a damn about the medical bills. However, she was worried about the man who was injured by Jean.Jean would be held liable if anything happened to him…Anna would not be able to accept the fact if she found out about it.Nina took a deep breath. All those unfamiliar legal provisions were running through her mind. What kind of sentence would Jean face if he accidentally killed someone?Nina dared not to think about it anymore. As she watched the nurse walk back into the emergency room, she stepped forward and said, “Please, you must save that person.” “Of course, we’ll try our best to save him. Now, you just have to wait for his family to arrive,” the nurse replied. Nina watched the nurse walk back in and pull the curtains. She paced around restlessly. After a while, one of the police officers brought Marie over and said to his colleague, “This is the woman whom the two men were fighting ove
The nurse frowned when the man spoke in a loud voice. “Sir, you’re in the hospital. Please lower your voice.”After the nurse said that to the older man, he lowered his voice and said, “He injured Tyrone, so he’ll have to be responsible for Tyrone's medical bills. Is there anything wrong with that?”The nurse glanced at Nina. The older man looked in the direction where the nurse was looking and saw Nina. “Are you the woman who stirred things up?” “I’m Jean Langdon’s family member. It’s Jean’s fault, so I’ll be responsible for Tyrone's medical bills. Please give me your ID. I’m going to pay now,” Nina said frankly. “So, you’re the one who’s going to cover Tyrone’s medical costs, right? Good. Let’s go and pay!” the man said. He was about to tug at Nina’s sleeve. Nina was so shocked that she took a step backward. She said, “Just pass me the ID. I’ll go and pay.”“Pass it to you? What if you run away with the ID? What should I do if I can’t complete the admission procedure and I
Larry looked at his brother with a disappointed look on his face. Keith was not bothered about it. He walked toward Nina and sat down beside her.Nina did not look up. She moved to another empty seat beside her. Keith noticed it and did not lean in closer to her. He continued to talk to her, “Hey, my brother is seriously injured. Your brother will have to go to prison if we make a big deal out of it.” "Don't worry. We'll take responsibility for this.” Nina lowered her head. Although she was stubborn, she was secretly praying for Tyrone and hoping that he would be fine. "Of course. Your brother will have to pay for the medical bills and compensate Tyrone as he won’t be able to work during this period. But I think we should discuss how to handle this and how much you have to pay. Do you get me? Although the one in the operating room is my cousin, I'm the only educated person in the whole family. Everyone listens to me, so I'll be the one in charge of this matter." Keith hinted a
Three hours later, Johann and another doctor walked out of the operating room. The nurse beside them called out, “Is Tyrone’s family here?”Keith and Larry helped Aunt Jenny up. They brought her to the door of the operating room. Nina stood up too when she heard it, and she came forward. Johann glanced at Percy and Nina. He slightly nodded his head to greet them.Nina looked at Johann’s expression, unable to figure out whether or not the surgery had succeeded. She was so nervous that she squeezed Percy’s hand.“Tyrone’s surgery was a success. We successfully extracted the glass shards out of his brain while removing the blood clots. But the patient’s wounds are complicated. We still need to transfer him to the ICU for another 24 hours of observation. We’ll only transfer him to the general ward if there’s nothing wrong with him,” said Johann. There was no expression on his face when he said that.After becoming a doctor for such a long time, Johann’s face was expressionless even
The two words said by the police scared Jean and diminished his arrogance. The food in his hand fell back onto his plate.He fumbled about and asked Nina, "Tyrone is dead?”“You injured him so badly. Even the glass was smashed into his head. What did you think would happen?” Nina got mad when she saw Jean’s terrified expression. She had never asked for him to be rich. Actually, as long as he took things seriously, he would not have a problem earning enough for his living expenses. However, he had disappointed her. "What's wrong? Are you scared now? Why didn't you think of the consequences when you smashed his head so forcefully back then?"Suddenly, Jean's eyes became red. Tyrone was dead. Even if he was willing to pay the compensation, he would not be able to escape from the law…"It wasn’t my intention to hit him so hard. It was Marie. She kept inciting me.” Jean wanted to push all the blame on Marie.Nina got even angrier when she saw Jean's childish behavior. He even mentioned
Nina's eyes flashed with disappointment.In her eyes, Jean was her son but she was not her daughter…"Whether or not I'm lying to you, you’ll soon know the truth. In the afternoon, ask the nurse to push you to the hospital’s detention ward. That’s when you’ll know whether or not I'm lying to you." Nina spun around and left the ward after speaking.Anna's cursing could be heard from behind. Nina was not willing to listen and was not bothered by it.From childhood all the way to adulthood, she had only ever held a place in Anna’s heart when Jean was still doing alright. When Jean started walking a crooked path, her status in Anna’s eyes starting falling as well. She could not understand. She had given everything she had to Jean, including the chance to further her studies.He ultimately failed to become a good person, yet Anna pushed all the blame on Nina. 'Why is this happening to me? Is it because I'm not a son?'Nina felt her limbs weaken. She sat on the long bench along the
"The girlfriend of Mr. Mallory from Mallory Corporation drives such a shabby car? Don’t try to fool me.” The man raised his finger and pointed at Marie, warning her."Don't worry, I’m not fooling you. That woman is very ordinary, but she lives a very good life. Percy has already announced their relationship during a press conference. Don’t worry about anything else. You’ll definitely get money out of her.” As Marie spoke, she was inwardly feeling jealous. ‘With just Nina’s mediocre looks, she was able to make Percy fall so hard for her.'I wonder if it’s because she learned how to seduce men from Bianca that she has the skills to get her hands on such a wealthy guy.’"Alright. Let me show her the list," the man said and left the office.Nina was still standing outside the entrance.The man came to the entrance and passed the list to her. "This is the list I prepared yesterday. The first three pages list down the property damage after your brother fought with others. The last three
"So, you don't have an appointment. Security, please get this guy out of here. If he still shows up here after this, just continue to chase him out.” Tina was much harsher than Luca."Understood." A security guard at the side had seen how Enoch was pestering Luca and was also prepared to make a move. However, since Luca had not given any orders, he did not dare to take any action as it was possible they could be a couple who was arguing. After all, he did not dare to offend Luca. Enoch took a step back when he saw the security guard walking toward him. He looked at Luca and said, "Luca, don’t you dare take things too far. If it wasn’t for Mr. Norman, I wouldn’t even have my eyes on you!”Luca's face was scarlet as she was mad at what Enoch said. If it were not for the crowd watching them, perhaps she would have stepped forward and taught this shameless man a lesson."You're just frustrated because you can't get her. Dr. Craw won’t ever like you. Even if you get tons of big shots
