Chapter 53 - It’s All Clarence’s Fault!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Clarence understood that Miranda was simply worried about her mother, so he did not blame her.

“Miranda, I can leave, but I must tell you that Mom has a clot due to the hemorrhage. If she’s not treated immediately, she’ll be in a lot of danger,” Clarence sighed.

​ 

“Hehe.”

Greyson looked at Clarence with a wry smile, “Are you the doctor here, or am I?

“If you’re not getting out of here, then I will!”

“Get out!” Miranda roared.

“Miranda…”

“Get out!!!”

Miranda glared at Clarence like he was her worst enemy. They had just repaired their relationship, but their work was for nothing.

Clarence turned around silently and left the room.

It was only after that Greyson was satisfied. He went to check on Peony’s condition.

After a short while, the expression on his face changed. “How can this be!”

“What’s wrong, Dr. White?”

The Murphy family was anxious.

Greyson said as he held his stethoscope, “There’s accumulation of blood in the patient’s lungs, and it’s still bleeding at this very moment!

Her lungs were filled with blood.

She had no wounds on the outside, but she had suffered serious internal injuries!

“I was careless.”

No one had realized that Peony was in such great danger.

“Oh no! Thankfully we managed to find this out early. Five minutes later, and the patient would be in critical danger.

“Dammit, how can it be this bad!” Greyson immediately ordered his subordinates to the room to give Peony a full check-up.

Peony did not look too roughed up on the outside, but her organs were bleeding, so their functions were compromised.

She might end up paralyzed if nothing was done to save her soon.

“What?”

“Doctor, you have to save my mom!”

The children begged.

“That means that if Clarence hadn’t rushed to the meeting room and you didn’t manage to get here in time, then Mom would be…” Miranda shuddered as she realized that she had wrongly blamed Clarence.

“Shut your mouth!”

Belle roared, “It’s all Clarence’s fault. If not for him, Mom wouldn’t be in this state right now!

“It’s all because of his dirty mouth, saying that Mom’s organs are bleeding!

“Now it’s come true!”

“That dirty mouth! Miranda, I think the both of you should just get divorced already!

“Clarence wants Mom to die so badly!” Melody’s body shook angrily as her eyes grew bloodshot.

It seemed like everyone was putting the blame entirely on Clarence.

They were blind to their own faults!

If it were not for Clarence causing a fuss at the meeting and forcing Greyson to attend to Peony…

Then Peony might have missed the opportunity to receive the treatment she needed.

How was Clarence at fault?

Kaysen had a weird expression on his face as he remained silent.

“How is it Clarence’s fault?”

Miranda frowned, regretting screaming at Clarence like that. She had misunderstood his intentions.

Armstrong roared, “If it’s not Clarence’s fault, then whose is it? Miranda, aren’t you protecting Clarence a little too much?”

“That’s right, he’s just a piece of trash. It’s his big mouth that did this to Mom!” Belle laughed coldly.

“Be quiet now, the patient is in a very dangerous state.

“Hurry up and send the patient to the operating room! I’ll go and get ready.”

Greyson rushed out of the room.

Despite being angry, he still held his ethics as a doctor. If his patient was in danger, he would do his best to try his best to save them.

The Murphy family was a hot mess.

After Clarence left the hospital, he drove his Ferrari over to the Hayes residence.

With the position and power that the Hayes family had in Mediterranean City, even Clarence knew where the house was, even though he had not been there before himself.

Second Ring Road, Bustling District… and their antique courtyard. There was only one area that fit the bill.

The residence had been designed based on the gardens of Venice.

That courtyard alone must have cost at least hundreds of millions of dollars in Mediterranean City, where even an inch of land was expensive.

A pair of fierce-looking stone lions looked magnificent guarding the front gates, a throwback to when royal palaces still existed.

Clarence got out of the car but was stopped at the gates.

“Who are you?”

A man clad in a black suit coldly glared at Clarence.

“Tell Jeremy that Clarence Howard is here to see him.” Clarence got straight to the point.

“Clarence Howard?”

Everyone was stunned.

“So you’re Master Howard, the man who saved our Old Master!”

Jeremy had told them that if Clarence came to visit, they did not have to tell Jeremy in advance and they could just let him walk right in.

“Please, enter.”

Clarence did not say another word as he strolled past the gates. After walking through a moon gate, massive blocks of stone blocked his view.

Behind the blocks of stone was a courtyard, and the Hayes residence’s hall behind it.

The structure of the Murphy residence was similar to this one, but the scale was way smaller.

When Clarence reached the entrance of the hall, he heard an elderly voice laughing coldly inside. “Joshua, I didn’t think that even after your retirement from Beth City, you still held so much power over Mediterranean City!”

Joshua Hayes’ voice echoed from the hall, “You’re joking, Zander. I’m just an old decrepit man on the brink of death. I was this close to shaking hands with my maker yesterday, so how could I still be holding this power you speak of?”

“Oh? You’re not holding any more power?

“Then tell me, why was your grandson crippling another man in full view of the public in broad daylight?

“He was proudly announcing himself as a member of the Hayes family!

“If news of this ever happened to spread back to Beth City… Hehe!” Zander Goldman scoffed.
