“We’ll hire a caretaker, but there’s no need to inform the Lynches. If Mireya’s parents find out that Rodney kicked and broke one of her ribs, they’ll definitely be worried.”
After Cate saw Shaun off and returned to the ward, Ryan was already back. He was feeding Mireya soup by the side of the bed. He blew on every spoonful to cool it down before feeding her.
At the scene, a hint of strangeness crossed Cate’s mind.
She knocked on the door and asked with a smile, “Do you need me to feed you?”
“You’re still here, eh?” Ryan was surprised.
Mireya swallowed the soup weakly before she quickly said, “Cate, why don’t you go home first? Ryan said that he had found a caretaker for me. After all, you need to look after your kids…”
“It’s fine. Shaun will look after them. I’ll stay here so that you won’t be bored.” Cate walked up to her with a grin.
After some thought, Ryan passed the soup to Cate. “Alright, then. After all, I’m a man. It can be inconvenient at times.”
Cate touched the bowl that was filled with boiling soup and glanced at Ryan in admiration.
Regardless of his intentions, it would be bad for Mireya’s reputation if she got too close with a man before she got a divorce. In this regard, Ryan was quite educated.
“Mireya, rest well in the hospital. I’ll take care of Dani for you.” Ryan turned around and said softly, ” I’ve also arranged for someone to guard the door so that nobody will barge in.”
“Thank you…”
Mireya was at ease knowing that he had done all she could think of.
” I haven’t told my parents about this issue, so I’m going to the Lodge to discuss it with them. You don’t have to worry. ” Ryan reminded her before leaving.
Cate replaced Ryan by sitting in his seat. She learned to blow on the soup as he did. However, when the food entered Mireya’s mouth, Mireya grumbled softly, “Cate, it’s hot. Are you trying to burn my tongue?”
Cate was speechless. “But it wasn’t hot when Ryan fed you just now, huh?”
“He cooled it down first.”
Fine. Did that mean Cate was not attentive as a man?
Outside the emergency room.
Rodney wrapped his hands around his head and waited outside for two hours before the doctor finally came out.
He promptly dashed toward the doctor. “Doctor, how’s the patient?”
“She’s in a bad condition. Her face… is disfigured.
Her muscles and tendons are broken due to excessive blood loss, the delay in sending her here, and her infected wounds. Although we’ve fixed her tendons through the surgery, her nerves have certainly been injured. It’s uncertain whether she can walk in the future. As for her hands… After a few months of treatment, it’ll be good enough if she can eat with her hands.”
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Rodney tottered and struggled to keep his footing. By the time he came to his senses, he grabbed the doctor’s collar and roared, “What do you mean? Are you saying that she’ll be paralyzed even up to her arms? In that case, won’t she be a disabled person?”
“Mr. Snow, we’ve really tried our best. It’s good enough that we managed to save her life.” Rodney’s roar made the doctor’s heart palpitate. Even so, the doctor continued reluctantly, “Also…”
Rodney widened his eyes and looked at the doctor anxiously.
“The patient… had a miscarriage, ” the doctor stammered.
“Miscarriage?” Rodney froze. “What nonsense are you talking about? How could she have gotten pregnant?”
“It’s true. She got pregnant about half a month ago. However, her miscarriage was probably caused by being in the dirty water for too long. On top of excessive blood loss, getting traumatized, and not sending her to the hospital in time, it has taken a huge toll on her body. I’m afraid she might have trouble getting pregnant in the future.”
“Half… Half a month?” Rodney was in a daze.
Sarah had been in the apartment the entire time. With his men keeping an eye on her, she had not gone anywhere. How could she have been pregnant?
Could one of the Snowden bodyguards have gotten her pregnant?
No. Half a month ago, there was one night when Rodney got drunk and stayed in the apartment overnight.
Could it have been that night… That was impossible.
Rodney’s head almost exploded.
He had never thought of cheating. Moreover, why did Sarah not tell him?
Did she hide it from him because she did not want to spoil his marriage?
At that instant, Rodney felt extremely guilty toward Sarah.
If this was the reason, he would have to bear a huge responsibility to her if she got pregnant in the future. What was more, she would most probably be paralyzed from now on. With the condition of her hands, she might be able to eat, but it would be impossible for her to go to work.
Rodney could never be able to fully compensate Sarah in this life.
He was so guilty that his eyes reddened.
He had never thought Mireya would be so cruel. She used to be quite a nice person, but to think she was cruel enough to kidnap Sarah and even break her limbs.
How wicked of her.
Why did he marry such a wicked woman as his wife? She even gave birth to his child.
If Rodney had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it.
What tormented him more was that he had no idea how to face Sarah.
After the doctor left, Landon from Snowden walked up to Rodney and reported, “I’m sorry, Young Master Snow. We wanted to send Young Madam to the police station as per your instruction, but after you left, Little Young Master Snow came to take her away.”
Rodney pulled Landon over. From his eyes, he looked as though he was going to eat Landon up. ” Even with so many of you, Ryan managed to take her away. What’s the point of paying you guys?”
Landon’s thin lips twitched. In the end, he said powerlessly, “Little Young Master Snow is also a member of the Snow family. What’s more, he’s the prime minister’s son. We…”
“But Snowden is under my care. He’s in no position to have a hand in it.” Rodney yelled angrily, “If you’re not clear about who your superior is, you can leave Snowden. Do you understand?”
At the thought of Ryan’s words, Landon became frustrated. “Young Master Snow, we didn’t have a choice. Little Young Master Snow warned us that Snowden doesn’t only belong to you, or there’s no point in its existence. When we were on our way back, Old Master Snow also gave us a call and told us not to act against Young Madam…”
“Do you think I want to act against Mireya? If possible, I wouldn’t want to do it either, but she tortured Sarah so badly. I need to do something about it. ” Rodney yelled in rage, ” Since you guys are stopping me, I’ll call the police and let them settle everything. Whoever committed a crime will be punished according to the laws.”
“How dare you think of sending your wife to jail.”
All of a sudden, Wendy’s reproaching voice came from behind all of a sudden.
Rodney turned his head around, only to see Wendy and Jessica walking toward him.
“Mom…” Rodney’s eyes instantly reddened. “I don’t want to do so, but did you see how badly Sarah was tortured? Not only is she paralyzed and disfigured, but she also has a miscarriage. She can never get pregnant again. It’s all Mireya’s fault. You guys shouldn’t defend her anymore.”
“Pregnant?” Wendy was appalled. “Was she pregnant with your child?”
“I think so…” At this moment, Rodney was still in a daze. “I drank too much the other day…”
Slap.
Wendy slapped his face violently. She was really mad. “Why did I give birth to a son like you? You swore to us that you’d send her overseas and that both of you weren’t romantically involved. Yet, it turned out that she was pregnant with your child. I can finally understand why Mireya did that to Sarah, and you can’t blame her. Sarah deserves it.”
“Mom, how could you say such a thing?” Extremely disappointed, Rodney covered his face. “I only got to know of Sarah’s pregnancy today. She didn’t even plan to tell me, nor did she plan to spoil my marriage. If this incident hadn’t happened, I would be sending her overseas next week.”
Jessica’s mouth twitched slightly, her beautiful face full of sarcasm. “You’re too naive. She didn’t tell you because she was worried that you’d make her use contraceptives. By the time she’s overseas, her baby bump will become bigger. Or perhaps after she gives birth to the baby, there would be nothing you can do about it anymore. You would have no choice but to be responsible to her. Once Mireya learns about it, your marriage would be a lost cause.”
“Your sister is right. Can you wake up? Sarah isn’t even a good woman.” Wendy was so close to begging him.
“Drop it. You guys are just biased against Sarah. ” Rodney was in total disbelief. “All you guys do is defend Mireya, and you can’t tell right from wrong. I think Mireya dares to become so wild and wicked only because you always rush to her defense.”
Wendy was so furious that she started to suffer from blackouts.
The most furious moment in Wendy’s life was caused by her son.
Jessica held Wendy’s shoulder. Then, she turned around and said to Rodney frostily, “Rodney, no matter how stubborn you are, don’t think of turning against the whole Snow family. You should be clear about the consequences. Don’t end up losing everything for the sake of Sarah. You might not care about it, but Shaun is targeting Sarah too. If you hadn’t been keeping a close watch on Sarah, he would’ve done away with her. If you offend the Snow family behind you, how are you going to protect Sarah?”
