When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 303
Colin glanced at the chair. âAre you just going to let me sit here?
Noah did not understand what was going on. After trembling in fear for a while, he tentatively wiped the chair with his sleeve. âMr. Barnes, please sit down.â
ç³
Colin sat down and continued teasing Noah. âMr. Miller, youâre too polite. Iâm sitting down, so where are you going to sit? Iâm here to discuss something. Itâs impolite to let you stand.â
This was a hospital ward, and the smell of disinfectant filled their noses. This was not a place to talk. Noah knew that Colin was temperamental, so he did not dare to refute. He could only follow Colinâs words and continue. âItâs fine, Mr. Barnes. Iâll just stand.â
âStand? Did I tell you to stand?â Colinâs tone suddenly changed.
Noah immediately had a bad feeling. As expected, in the next second. Colin kicked his injured knee. Noah instantly knelt down.
Colin looked down at Noah and said teasingly, âYou look much better now.â
Noah lowered his head and did not dare to speak. He was worried that if he said too much, he would make more mistakes and get beaten up badly.
Ella and Olivia were both terrified.
âIs he a f*cking lunatic? Heâs so fickle: Olivia swallowed and thought to herself.
Ella came back to her senses and begged, âMr. Barnes! Please donât hit my son. Letâs talk things out, okay? Weâll definitely think of a way to get the money you want.â
Colin looked up at Ella and suddenly put on a smile. He patted his head and looked like he was blaming himself. âIâm sorry. was so angry just now that I forgot that there were two of you in the ward. I must have frightened you. Iâm so sorry.â
Oliviaâs nerves were tense the entire time. She was afraid that Colin meant he had forgotten to beat them up together. She did not want to get hit, but she could not run now.
However, when she saw Noah being beaten up, she felt a sense of satisfaction. Noah, this b*stard, deserved it.
Colin continued, âMrs. Miller, you said that you would find a way to get the money. Donât you already have a way? Iâve already pointed out a clear path for Mr. Miller, right? Isnât your biological daughter, Gina, very rich? She can fork out a mere 200 million dollars anytime.â
Ella tried to explain carefully. âItâs true that Gina is my biological daughter, but she cut ties with us a long time ago.â
âItâs none of my business. Do you think I should consider whether your family relationship has broken down? I want it to be very simple. Compensate me with 200 million dollars. I have to see it on my account tonight.
âOr, what should I do?â Colin thought about it calmly. âTll break Mr. Millerâs legs first. I remember that Mr. Millerâs brother is also a cripple. When the time comes, he will have a company. Thatâs quite good. Moreover, if you delay for another day, Iâll break your legs. Anyway, donât you have a lot of brothers?
âWhen your
legs are done, Iâll cripple your hands. Wait, let me think. Should I leave someone to take care of the rest of you?â As Colin spoke, he made himself laugh and joked maliciously.
Cold sweat broke out on Ellaâs back. She felt that Colin was like a demon.
Ella took a deep breath. âYes, of course. Mr. Barnes, but could you please contact Gina? If we contact her, she will ignore us,

soâ¦.
Colin was impatient. She still needed him to contact her? So useless.
Ella saw Colinâs dissatisfaction and hurriedly apologized âIâm sony, Mr. Barnes. Weâre useless. Please, we need your help.â
Colin said calmly. âItâs good that you know. Alright, Iâll contact her.â Colin took out his phone.
However, Ella stopped him. âMr. Barnes, wait. L⦠I still need to prepare something.â
Gina, who had already returned home, received a call from âGabriel.â
She did not answer the call immediately as usual. Instead, she realized that although the caller ID showed the name Gabriel, the number was not.
However, she still answered the call.
âMiss Miller.â Colinâs voice came from the other end of the phone. âI was afraid you wouldnât pick up the phone. Looks like that worked.
âBy the way, itâs not that I want to call you. Your family wants to contact you. Unfortunately, you wonât answer their calls, so I have to make this call. Iâm just helpful and kind,â Colin said with a smile.
With that, Colin handed the phone to Ella.
Ella took it with trepidation. She tried her best to remain calm, but her voice sounded like she was crying. âGina, donât hang up. I beg you. I know you hate and never forgive us. But please help us this time!
Just this once. From now on, we will disappear from your worldâ
âWhat is it about you that is worth my help?â Gina askel coldly.
But if she hadnât offended Mr. Barnes, why would Mr. Barnes take revenge on them? Ella wanted to say so, but she could not. If she irritated Gina now, they would also die.
The Miller family had never enjoyed the glory brought by Ginaâs status, but they had to bear Ginaâs sins. Why? That was not fair. Ellaâs heart changed drastically again. She did not want Ging anymore. No matter how outstanding Cina was, no matter how capable she was, she could not be on the same side as their family. She would even bring disasters to them. What was the point of having such a daughter?
Ella gritted her teeth and went along with Ginaâs words. âYes, we donât have anything worthy of your help, but⦠but what about your grandmother? Although your grandmother only saw you when you were born and itâs impossible for you to remember her, before she died, all she cared about wasâ¦.
âActually, your Grandma left a letter for you. I never told you. Now, letâs meet. Iâll give you the letter. After you read it, you can decide if you want to help Miller Jewels or not. Is that okay?â
âGrandmotherâs letter. Gina thought of her grandmotherâs will, which was to give her all the shares to her. She felt that this deceased woman might be the only person in the Miller family who treated her as family
She was curious about the contents of the letter.
After a moment of silence, Gina agreed. âOkay.â
Ella finally felt relieved. Her back was covered in cold sweat and her clothes were almost wet. She was so scared that she almost burst into tears. She did not expect that that dead old woman would still help her at a critical moment.
