Chapter 212

Chapter 212 You’re Ruthless

Leon and Tina noticed the two guys approaching Simone and followed suit. When Zac saw them, he

raised an eyebrow at them. “Do you guys need something?” It couldn’t be that they wanted to hang out

together.

“We need to talk to Simone about something,” Aaron explained. Simone was a bit puzzled. “What do

you want with me?” she asked. Aaron’s handsome face displayed a gentle and kind. smile towards her.

“My mom fainted last night and was hospitalized,” he uttered. He knew that Simone probably wouldn’t

entertain him if he asked to speak with her privately. So, he said it in front of everyone.

Simone was a bit surprised to hear that Salma had actually fainted. She figured that it was most likely

because of Andrew and Jodie. “So?” Simone didn’t know what to say. “If she fainted, she just needs to

stay in the hospital. What does that have to do with me?” Judging from the looks of the Gray Family

brothers, Salma was definitely fine.

Furthermore, even if Salma was seriously ill, Simone still wouldn’t visit her. Aaron hadn’t. expected

Simone to respond in that way. He cleared his throat. “We’re going to the hospital later and wanted to

ask if you want to come along.”

Simone shook her head. “I’m not going.” Luca looked at Simone with a perplexed gaze. “She’s your

mom! Are you really that heartless?” The old Simone had a lot of empathy. If she heard. that her mom

fainted and was hospitalized, she would definitely get anxious. The old Simone would’ve offered to go

to the hospital to take care of Salma. However, this time, she directly refused them with a cold look on

her face. Luca found it hard to accept the new, heartless version of Simone.

Simone smiled at them. “Didn’t we cut ties a long time ago? You guys shouldn’t place any hopes on

me. We don’t have a relationship anymore. If anyone in the Gray Family has an issue, I won’t be

involved in it at all. It’s none of my business. Please remember what I just. said. Don’t bother me again

next time, okay?” she uttered in a clear tone. Luca gritted his teeth. “You’re really ruthless,” he hissed.

Simone showed him a bright smile. “Thank you for the compliment!”

Luca was speechless. His sister was still as infuriating as ever. Simone no longer paid attention to them

after that. Instead, she turned to Zac and the others. “I think venturing out into the ocean, as you guys

mentioned earlier, sounds good.”

Zac took a few steps to block Luca’s view of Simone. He found these two brothers really annoying as

they always bothered Simone. He smiled and responded to Simone. “So, is that the plan? My brother

has a yacht in Slovance, and I can take us out in it.”

Simone and the others nodded in agreement. “Okay, let’s do that.”

Tina looked at the two groups of people with envy. She found herself really unlucky to be stuck with

these three awful men. Otherwise, she’d also be able to head out for some fun. Simone could sense

Tina’s envy. After hesitating for a moment, she turned to question Tina. “Do you want to come with us?”

Tina’s eyes brightened. “Can I?” Simone nodded and smiled. “Of course. you can.”

“Yay! I want to go!” Tina cheered.

“Then let’s go together,” Simone replied with a smile.

“Great!” Tina immediately grabbed her suitcase and stood next to Simone. She waved to the other

three with a smug look on her face. “Our group is disbanding. You guys can go play on your own.” She

was going out to have fun with Simone, and she knew that she would make these three losers jealous.

Leon and the other two were speechless. They couldn’t believe how this traitor was showing off. But

they had to admit, they felt a bit jealous and wanted to go too. Unfortunately, neither group wanted

them. Back in their home country, as top celebrities, they were treated like royalty wherever they went.

Only here were they despised and abandoned. Ugh! This is so agonizing!

The guests retrieved their own phones, but they hadn’t returned the ones provided by the production

team yet. Everyone could spend the money they had earned before, along with their own money. This

time, it seemed like the production team had made a more decent. decision. The two groups and Tina

took a cab to the beach. Zac also called his brother to ask for permission to use the yacht.

On the other side, Leon was questioning the Gray Family brothers. “What are you guys going to do

next?”

“We’re going to the hospital to care for our mom, Aaron replied. Leon nodded. “Go ahead, then. I’ll find

a hotel to stay on my own.” The three of them went their separate ways. Leon checked into a five-star

hotel, but he still felt very down. After a while, he sent a message in their group chat.

Leon: Let’s have a drink!”

Titus: Are you back already? Didn’t you say you were coming back the day after tomorrow?”

Leon: ‘Come to Slovance and have a drink with me!

Titus was speechless for a while. ‘You better go wash up and go to sleep. You can dream during the

day, too.

Harold: ‘Leon, you seem so devastated from the breakup. Leon chuckled when he saw their responses.

Leon: ‘Didn’t we agree before that we should be there for each other when something happens?”

Titus: ‘Didn’t we agree to end our friendship before?’

Harold: ‘Is it too late to end it now?”

Leon: ‘Get lost… The three of them continued chatting in the group for a while. Leon mentioned Salma

fainting and being hospitalized. Titus didn’t know about this. So, he called Aaron and asked about his

mother’s condition. Aaron assured him that she was doing fine.

Titus then asked about the reason for his mother’s fainting. Aaron didn’t explain much-he told his

brother to see it with his own eyes. After hanging up the phone, Aaron sent the video he recorded the

night before. Titus played the video and was speechless after watching it.

I didn’t realize that Andrew is even more impressive than me! Titus watched as his brother got beat up

by their mother with a broom in the video. He couldn’t help but laugh with a hint of menace. Previously,

when he was seen hugging Jodie, he got kicked by Simone. Seeing that Andrew got beaten by their

mother this time gave Titus some comfort.

So, Titus decided to head to the company to share the video with his eldest brother. After watching the

video, Reuben had a complicated expression on his face. “Dad is coming back. I guess Andrew will

suffer even more then,” he commented.

Titus laughed. “He deserves it.” The two boys exchanged glances. They both looked forward to

watching their younger brother’s downfall.

Meanwhile, Luca and Aaron returned to Salma’s ward at the hospital. Salma seemed disappointed

when she saw that Simone wasn’t with them. “Didn’t you inform Simone about me?” she asked. Aaron

felt a tinge of sadness witnessing his mother in this state.

“I did, but she refused to come,” Aaron said. He recounted his conversation with Simone truthfully. He

also wanted his mother to understand that Simone was genuinely serious this time and that she no

longer desired any connection with them. Luca sighed. “She’s heartless now. She simply won’t come to

see you,” he added.

Salma’s expression changed, and she felt extremely uneasy. Tears welled up in her eyes involuntarily.

She hadn’t expected her daughter to refuse to visit her after hearing that she had fainted and was

hospitalized. When Salma noticed her three sons staring at her, her face darkened. “What are you

gawking at? It’s all because of your mischief that drove your sister away, she snapped.

As she said this, she felt even more displeased with her three sons. At this point, Andrew felt like he

finally had some company. All three of the brothers had to endure their mother’s torment together. They

felt like crying as they were all trapped in that position.

In the evening, the four of them were enjoying Chinese food that Andrew had specially

glanced at them for a while. Soon, their appetites vanished.
