Mireya’s mouth opened, but her throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton.
After a while, she was overwhelmed with rage and discontent.
This was not the outcome she anticipated either. However, when Charity was in jail, she always used to visit Boris, who was admitted to the hospital because he was exasperated. Due to that, she interacted with Jennifer frequently, even more than Cate did.
She knew full well that Jennifer was gentle and kind.
She still remembered the tearful look on Jennifer’s face, worried about her daughter and husband.
Yet, Jennifer died so miserably.
Sarah had destroyed the Neeson family, as well as Mireya’s irreplaceable youth. She even made Mireya hate Rodney, which was why Mireya could not pull herself together.
However, after being reminded by Ryan and criticized by Cate, Mireya realized that she was too impulsive and irresponsible.
Cate patted her shoulder lightly. “I understand your pain. Charity is my good friend, and I respect Aunty Jennifer as my elder. In fact, I’ve never forgotten how Sarah plotted against Shaun. But Shaun and I are trying to come up with an appropriate solution. Even if we want to take revenge against Sarah, It’s not worth involving ourselves in it.”
“I got it.” Mireya nodded dejectedly.
The two of them took the elevator down. As soon as they walked out, they came across Rodney, who was holding a lab sheet.
Since they were not too far away from each other, it didn’t take long for Rodney to catch sight of them. His handsome face darkened, and his grim eyes settled on Mireya. “Why are you guys here?” Are you guys planning to trouble Sarah again?”
“So Sarah is staying here as well.” Seeing how protective he was of Sarah, Mireya could not help but scoff. “Judging from her minor injuries, it’s a waste of resources for her to be hospitalized.”
Rodney’s eyes flashed with fury. He gazed at Mireya’s face that he used to find beautiful. However, the sight of her hysterical expression yesterday made him feel unfamiliar with her. “Mireya, are you for real? Do you know how badly you burned her yesterday? If she hadn’t blocked her face with her hands, her face would’ve been ruined.”
” I missed her face. What a shame, ” Mireya teased.
“You…” Rodney’s eyes burst with anger. “Are you a human? Where’s your conscience? If you weren’t my wife, I would’ve called the police on you. Also, Sarah keeps telling me not to look into the issue. All she wants is to keep the peace, yet you can’t even let her off.”
“In that case, I have to thank you for not having me arrested.” Mireya laughed. At that moment, her hatred for Rodney intensified.
No matter how protective he was of Sarah back then, Mireya would not hate him because it was his choice to love Sarah. However, he should not use his love for Sarah against her.
Annoyed, Rodney undid the button on his shirt in front of his chest. “You don’t have to tease me. Ask yourself whether it was right to do what you did yesterday. You almost killed Sarah and ruined her entire life. Not only doesn’t she hate you, but she’s not calling the police either. Why can’t you learn to be generous? Come with me and apologize to Sarah to beg for her forgiveness now.”
With that, he reached out to grab Mireya’s hand.
However, Mireya acted faster by slapping him on the face while glaring at him resentfully. “You want me to come with you and apologize to her? Dream on. Even if she’s dead, I’ll trample all over her tomb in the middle of the night.”
With that, she dragged Cate away with him. ” Cate, let’s go.”
She was worried that she would attack Rodney if she looked at him again.
Even so, Rodney refused to let her go. He stretched out his hands to stop the two of them. Then, he lowered his head and looked at Cate. “I just want to know if Shaun’s memory has recovered. “
Needless to say, Cate knew that denying would be the best choice. However, now that Rodney and Mireya had come this far, it would be difficult for them to make peace with each other again. Therefore, she openly admitted it. “His memory has mostly recovered. He remembers most of his past except for some little things.”
Rodney was astonished. “Sure enough, Sarah didn’t lie to me.”
“It’s been almost half a month. Are you going to send Sarah overseas?” Cate asked with her eyes fixed on him.
Rodney said embarrassedly, “At first, I planned to send her overseas two days ago. But since her hand has been burned, it’ll take at least four to five days for her injury to heal. In fact, it’s uncertain whether she can recover. But Mireya, I beg you. After all, you’re my legal wife. I don’t want to investigate the matter to find out who’s right and wrong. All I want from you is to apologize to her. Let’s bring other matters to an end too, okay?”
“Rodney, you just don’t understand how much seeing you standing in front of me is making me hate you. I wish I could divorce you right now.”
Mireya immediately pulled Cate and left. She could not be bothered to look at him anymore.
Rodney clutched her wrist with a grim expression.
Mireya broke free from his clutch and walked away without turning back.
As he stared at her silhouette, Rodney felt disappointed and powerless.
He even began to blame Mireya, wondering why she could never understand him nor put herself into his shoes.
On this day, Rodney was in and out of the hospital.
When Eliza was ready to head back home to rest after having an IV infusion in the afternoon, she happened to see Rodney leaving.
Skyler turned her gaze to where Eliza was looking, only to find a bunch of people walking in and out the door. “Lizzie, what are you looking at?”
” I’m looking at how well this hospital is doing. ” Eliza averted her eyes.
Skyler said with a smile, “All the hospitals are doing well. What’s more, the Jewell family hospital has the best medical skills in Australia.”
“I’ll come over tomorrow for IV infusion, ” Eliza said, “The doctor said I should have an infusion for three days straight, right?”
Skyler was taken aback as Eliza was known for going against the doctor’s instructions. This time, she was probably rather obedient because she was in poor health. “Actually, you can get a family doctor over to your house to perform an IV infusion. After all, you’re a public figure…”
” It doesn’t matter. I feel more at ease having it in the hospital. ” As Eliza was speaking, she made her way to the door. “You must be exhausted from the past two days. I’ll ask my bodyguard to accompany me to deal with other matters. You can carry on with your work, and there’s no need for you to accompany me home later.”
Once Eliza got home, she took her coat off and lay on the couch.
The chauffeur came in and closed the door. Then, he carefully put the fruit baskets on the overhead table.
Eliza took out a box of cigarettes below the table in front of him. The minute she held the cigarette between two of her fingers, she exuded a sense of coldness. Then, she lit the cigarette and took a deep drag like a junkie.
Only those who knew her well would understand that this was her only way of venting her feelings when she felt most miserable.
After two solid minutes of silence, she said, ” Sarah will probably be in the burn unit for the next two days. Now that Shaun’s memory has mostly recovered, Rodney trusts Sarah even more. I guess Rodney will consider sending Sarah abroad once her wound gets better.”
The chauffeur said, ” Sarah will probably try finding a way of staying here.”
“Perhaps she has already found a way.” Eliza’s lower lip suddenly twitched.
A puzzled look washed over the chauffeur’s face.
Eliza softly exhaled some smoke from his mouth, making her appear hazy. “Didn’t someone spot Rodney sleeping at Sarah’s place when he was drunk? To Sarah, the fastest way of gaining a foothold here is to get pregnant. I’m sure she has plotted something. Furthermore, her hypnotic skills are very powerful. Hypnotizing a man to sleep with her is an easy task for her.”
The chauffeur was so shocked that his jaw dropped. On second thought, it was difficult to prevent anything from happening when a man and a woman were together in a room the entire night.
“That’s why Sarah doesn’t mind being sent abroad. Once she’s pregnant, Rodney will eventually ask her to return.”
Eliza laughed. She was the one who grew up with Sarah, so she knew her well enough. “But I can’t make a move only after she’s back. After all, she’ll be pregnant with Rodney’s child. By then, the Snowden members will keep a closer watch of me, and I won’t have the chance to do it.”
The chauffeur furrowed his brows nervously. ” These are just your assumptions. Moreover, Miss Cox and Young Master Lyons will probably do something about it…”
“Yeah. Sarah has too many enemies, but what to do? I want to kill her myself.” Eliza said grimly, ” Plus, I won’t kill her in one go. I’ll torture her little by little. I want her to experience the worst feeling in the world and suffer a living hell.”
The chauffeur fixed his eyes on her amid the smoke. Seemingly, the exquisite, perfect celebrity he used to see on TV had transformed into a different person.
This look of hers was quite familiar to him. It was similar to when she caught Thomas and tortured him every day— no, it was much crazier than that.
After a long time, the chauffeur said, “You were the one who granted me life. If it hadn’t been for you, I wouldn’t have come this far. I’m ready to sacrifice for you anytime. However, the hospital is filled with people. I’m worried they’ll find out that it’s your doing…”
“It’s fine. If they do, I’ll take full responsibility for it. You can leave.” Eliza’s tone was dull, yet it conveyed a sense of hellish madness.
No one knew that Eliza had stepped into hell the moment Mireya told her the truth yesterday.
Eliza had already turned into a devil. All she wanted to do was take revenge, and nobody could stop her.
The next day, when Eliza headed to the hospital, she only brought her chauffeur and bodyguard along.
She was wearing a pair of shades and a cap. While she was having an IV infusion quietly in the emergency room, Chester entered in a white coat and a stethoscope around his neck.
“Are you feeling better?” Chester naturally extended his hand to touch her forehead.
Eliza subconsciously dodged his hand, leaving it stiffening in the air. Even so, he did not get angry but smiled. “I’m just checking your temperature as a doctor. You don’t have to be nervous.”
“Dr. Jewell, if I’m not mistaken, you’ re a leading doctor from the department of internal medicine.” Eliza looked up and reminded him. However, her shades prevented the emotions in her eyes from being seen.
