Chapter 252
At the emergency room of Savrow Hospital, Rosalind had already received a blood transfusion, but she was still in critical condition.
When she was brought in, her entire face was so pale that it was almost transparent. The cuts on her wrists were hideous and deep.
Patrick, Jean, Gregory, and Bethany were waiting in the corridor.
Jean was heartbroken and bawled while calling out her daughter’s name.
“That’s enough! How could you cry like this at your age? You’re embarrassing us!” Patrick admonished her with a gloomy face.
“Are you kidding me? Our daughter’s life is hanging by a thread, but as her father, you only think about how I’m embarrassing you. Do you even have a heart?!”
Jean grabbed and pulled her husband’s collar while crying hysterically. “My son is already in prison.
Rose is the only child I have now! If anything happens to her, I won’t be able to live anymore!”
Patrick’s face was glum. His daughter attempted suicide because of a man, and his wife was making a fuss.
Patrick already had an inferior complex with Gregory. But this time, he felt even more embarrassed in front of his brother-in-law because he could not figure out how to deal with his wife and daughter. In a fit of rage, Patrick shoved Jean, who stumbled to the floor.
“Are you done making a scene?! This is a hospital. Do you think this is a farmer’s market? Look in the mirror! Do you still look like the wife of a chairman?!”
“You… You pushed me…” Jean collapsed on the floor. She was so stunned that she forgot to cry.
“Aunt Jean, Uncle Patrick, please stop arguing! What’s most important is that Rose can survive the critical period.” Bethany hurriedly stepped forward to help Jean. However, she was secretly smiling.
If Shannon had not been assisting with the investigation at the prosecutor’s office and Gregory had not dragged her over to console Jean, Bethany would not have cared about Rosalind’s well-being.
Since Bethany was already at the hospital, she would have to complete the act. Thus, she could not laugh, no matter how secretly happy she was.
“Gregory, my daughter has become like this because of your son. You must give us an explanation!”
Patrick had nowhere to vent his anger, so he could only blame Gregory. “My daughter and your son have been in a relationship for so many years. She gave Justin the most precious years of her youth! Now that their marital news is spreading, everyone in Savrow knows that my daughter is Justin’s fiancée. At first, their wedding was set to be after Old Master Nigel’s birthday. Your son and that woman delayed finalizing their divorce, but we put up with it for Old Master Nigel’s sake. Now that his birthday has passed and they have finalized their divorce, how could your son suddenly back out at this time?
What kind of girl from a good family can bear this kind of betrayal? Your son is just forcing my daughter off a cliff!”
