...
In the City Hospital.
Just as Emily walked to the corridor, she heard a loud noise in the distance.
Harold glanced and whispered, "Lynn's parents are here."
Emily nodded and then walked ahead, hearing Lynn saying. Lynn said, "Stop arguing. Leave here, or you will disturb other patients."
"Disturb others? What are you doing?" Ruth pointed at her and cursed angrily, "That's Eliot! He's your cousin. What did you do?"
Jim panted heavily, "Go home quickly!"
Lynn was a little aggrieved, "Dad, Mom, I'm just taking care of him. You are thinking too much. What you think is not true."
"Not true?" Ruth pointed at the ward and said, "I saw you clean his body with a towel. Are you his servant or his nanny?"
Jim scolded her angrily, "How shameless you are!"
Lynn clenched her fists and suddenly cried out, "Eliot saved me. Why are you so mean? If it weren't for him, I would have died. I wanted to pay his debts. What's wrong? I didn't do anything harmful. He suffered such serious injuries because of me. I just take care of him. Is there anything wrong? None of you are grateful, but now you even want me to leave. I won't go back. Even if you kill me, I won't leave. "
Many people were in the corridor and watched them. Lynn felt embarrassed. After saying that, she wanted to enter the ward, but Ruth grabbed her arm and said, "You have been here for many days. It's enough."
"I said I would not go home." Lynn struggled.
Jim also came to pull her out, "Go home! The Britt family could take care of him. Not only you. Hurry up!"
Emily had already walked up to them while they were pestering.
They stopped suddenly. Jim looked at Emily and said, "Are you my brother's daughter?"
Emily nodded, "My name is Emily."
Although they were her relatives, since Eliot was injured and Maury passed away, she had had few contacts with them.
"Alright. We're very grateful to your brother, and Lynn has stayed here to take care of him for many days. So we want to take her home now," Ruth said.
Emily didn't even glance at her. She just looked at Lynn and said, "Go to the ward."
Jim became angry and said, "What are you saying? She has to go home."
Emily tilted her head slightly, and Harold had already stepped forward. He had great strength, so he grabbed the hands of Jim and Ruth easily and Lynn was released.
Lynn was sorry and glanced at Emily. Then, she lowered herself into the ward and closed the door.
"Emily, we don't want to bully you. Although something bad has happened to Eliot and you need someone to take care of him, Lynn has done everything she can. She's not your servant. Even a nurse or a servant can earn good money nowadays. Don't you think so?" Ruth implied that Emily should pay Lynn.
Emily found it really funny. Lynn was imprisoned and abused by a violent maniac, but they were indifferent. Besides, Eliot saved Lynn and was threw from the third floor. Lynn came to look after him for a few days, and they thought her shameless. How weird!
Emily could know the answer easily. If Lynn was brought back, she would be forced to marry a wealthy man or was forced to work to support their family. In their family, money was everything.
"No," Emily looked at them and said indifferently, "Absolutely not. Because of Lynn, my brother fell into serious injuries. If she doesn't take care of him, I will sue her. Do you know how much the compensation is? She can't afford it. She is paying debts. She's here to pay off her debts. The compensation for my brother's medical expenses is more than a million. She can't afford..."
Emily finished her words and looked thoughtfully at Jim, "Well, since you want to take her away, you can pay her debts. Not much, only one million. Do you want to swipe your card or give cash?"
Jim's expression changed, "What? One million?"
Ruth was also shocked, "You ... This... He... It wasn't Lynn's fault. It's ... It's..."
"It's the son of the director of Town South," Emily reminded her, "So why did he hurt Eliot? It was because my brother saved your daughter. Do you want to know more?"
"You should ask them for money... Not Lynn. She ... She has little money, and we don't have money, either," Jim said angrily, "Ask them! We are victims, too."
"So are we. Eliot was injured severely for your daughter," Emily glanced at them indifferently and said, "If you don't have money, then I will send you all to jail. After all, it's all because of you. My brother just suffered it, unfortunately."
"No way! You ... You can't sue us!" Ruth was a little scared. Looking at each other, both of them didn't know what to do.
Who said that Maury's little daughter was a fool?
In the farewell ceremony, she still knelt like a fool, but after a short time, she stood in front of them and said those aggressive words normally.
"That's why I said that Lynn stayed here to pay debts, understand?" Emily looked at them and said, "As soon as she pays off the one million, she can leave."
Jim and Ruth looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a moment. It seemed that Emily was not joking.
They wanted to say something else, but Emily had entered the ward.
The watchers were still discussing. Jim and Ruth felt embarrassed, and then hurriedly lowered their heads and ran away.
The moment Emily entered, she saw Lynn standing awkwardly behind the door.
She heard what Emily had said outside just now. Whether it was to expel her parents or her inner thought, Lynn had remembered her words.
She pinched her fingers, her entire face filled with guilt and uneasiness, "Sorry, if it wasn't for me..."
Emily interrupted her, "Yes, if it weren't for you, Eliot wouldn't be injured. But since he's already injured, you just take good care of him from now on. Don't say anything else."
"Alright," Lynn asked again, "Do you hate me?"
Emily turned to look at her. In her memory, she had only met Lynn a few times, and her impression was not deep. However, when she heard that Lynn had died, she was somewhat confused. At that time, she did not understand what death meant.
"I don't hate you, but I don't like you, either," She said.
Lynn had probably known the result before she answered, getting upset. She still smiled and said, "Thank you."
Emily didn't reply and turned to look at Eliot.
He had been sleeping when she came recently.
She looked at his face. The wounds were almost recovered, but his legs were still hanging. He must be in pain because of the steel nails inside. She didn't know how much it would hurt.
Last time, Collin had told her to find a male nurse. Because Eliot was recovering, and his wounds would itch occasionally. He could only endure it if there were no men. Definitely, he wouldn't bother a girl to scratch him.
"I've found a male nurse for him. You can go to the Tea Manor tomorrow and adapt to the job and environment there," Emily turned to tell her, "Everything was not real except the one million."
"What?" Lynn was a little confused.
Harold reminded, "Miss Emily means that you should earn a million for her."
"Well. Okay," Lynn was still amazed. A million? Can she earn so much money?
"Tell Sydnee to take her there tomorrow morning," Emily said.
Harold nodded, "Alright."
Before Emily walked out of the ward, she glanced at Eliot and saw his thin eyelid blink.
Lynn noticed her and guessed that she had already known, but Emily didn't say anything and left the ward.
Shortly after the door was closed, Eliot opened his eyes and asked, "Has she left?"
Lynn nodded and whispered, "She discovered just now."
