Chapter 353

That afternoon, Patrick sent people to look around several times, but they still didn't see Christina.

Even Chandler was surprised. "Why did she slip away after coming here?"

Patrick was silent. Feeling a little scary to be glanced at by Patrick, Chandler cleverly shut up and

turned around to continue working as if nothing had happened.

At the hospital, Donald woke up and was diagnosed with left-side paralysis. There was nothing he

could do about the company, but his mood was calm as if he had seen through many old things.

"Person lives just for daily diet. We only have one stomach and one mouth. How much can we use

or eat? We have enjoyed enough of what we should enjoy. Wealth is not required. Don't worry

about the company now."

Mrs Dickens often sat by the bed and muttered, as if she was comforting her very ill son or

reminding herself at all times.

Betty stayed to take care of them. Mrs Dickens was now open-minded and figured something out.

Donald didn’t give up on himself because of his paralyzing. All of these moved Betty.

She brought over the porridge cooked at home and carefully poured half a bowl.

"Drink some porridge to fill your stomach first. Later, we will go to the rehabilitation department for

massage and acupuncture. The doctor said you'll get better after doing rehabilitation actively.”

Although Donald was still very weak, he recovered his spirits well and can think clearly. He did not

go to pick up the porridge that Betty brought over. He suddenly looked at the door of the ward for

a while.

Betty followed his gaze and saw that there seemed to be someone standing outside the door, but

the person did not come in and only opened a small crack in the door.

Feeling a little strange, Betty put the bowl on the cupboard and walked over.

"That's strange...” When Betty walked forward, the person turned around and left in a hurry.

She wanted to chase after her, but her eyes were attracted by the small ornaments left at the door

of the ward. She looked at the silver necklace on the ground and then looked up at the figure who

had left in a panic.

Connie?

Betty squatted down and picked up the familiar silver necklace, which was thrown away by Connie

in the Dickens family that day...

Betty returned the necklace to Donald without hesitation. "I think she came here to apologize to

you. What happened before is not her original intention.”

Betty was such a mildest woman. She was different from Connie and Mary, who pursued what they

wanted by fair means or foul in strong feelings of love or hatred. So she chose different life from

them.

There were no completely right or wrong in the world. All the things that happened just depended

on everyone's choices.

Donald feebly took the cold silver necklace. This time, he did not grab it strongly. Instead, he let the

"heavy" necklace slip his palm and fall to the floor.

Betty looked at him in surprise, but Donald didn't say anything. He lowered his head and drank the

half bowl of hot porridge.

In the doctor's office, Christina asked the attending doctor in charge of rehabilitation about

something.

Crystal walked quickly from the elevator and said anxiously, "Christina, I seemed to see Connie just

now."

Christina turned around and looked at Crystal, frowning slightly as if she was thinking of something.

She did not ask further.

Crystal walked to her and raised her voice with a more sincere face. "Really, I really saw her just now.

She ran down the stairs...”

"Um." Christina said casually.

Crystal felt that she had been out of her mind recently. But she didn't know what she was worried

about.

"I heard from Chandler that Connie was detained by the judiciary and had to cooperate with the

investigation.”

Crystal said to herself, "By the way, do you know that Cecilia is wanted now? She seems to have

absconded abroad. It was because Cecilia was found for giving Carrie some illegal drugs, which

leaded Carrie drove into us in a daze last time. I didn't expect such a big tea. The police investigated

that Cecilia had something to do with an underground group..."

"Cecilia?"

Christina repeated the name, which had been very unfamiliar for her.

Seeing that there was no emotion on her face, Crystal scolded angrily, "Cecilia deserve what she

faces now. She was never willing to live in peace. She thinks she is smart and did so many tricks

behind everyone backs."

But anyway, it's really tragic to hate someone who doesn't even know your name.

Thinking of this, Crystal felt that Cecilia was a waste of time.

"What's more, I heard that Carrie came out of the mental hospital. She agreed to divorce Cory." The

more Crystal spoke, the more excited she became. "Do you think she has any conspiracy? Next time

you see her, you must be careful.”

Compared to the strong condemnation in Crystal's heart, Christina was much calmer.

"Crystal, why are you so excited?"

The two figures slowly walked towards them. Chandler, who was walking in front of them, stared at

the excited little woman and deliberately teased her.

Seeing that it was Chandler, Crystal immediately looked as if she had seen a natural enemy. A trace

of fear flashed through her eyes, and then she shrank behind Christina, pretending to be very

honest and obedient.

Chandler was very dissatisfied with her cowardice.

Charles, who was standing behind Chandler, smiled slyly. "Miss Zhu, Chandler means that you are

overly enthusiastic. The emperor is not in a hurry while the eunuch is in a hurry. Look, how calm our

Miss Dickens is."

"Who's the eunuch? You're the eunuch." Crystal popped her head and roared at Charles.

Charles's handsome face darkened.

He was thinking about how to refute her handsomely, but before he finished organizing his words,

his good friend beside him said in an enigmatical tone, "Charles, you are the same as her.”

How did Charles have the nerve to mock Crystal when mentioning overly enthusiasm!

"You look more and more like a sissy eunuch.” Christina took the rehabilitation agreement signed by

the doctor, turned around and patted Charles on the head. He was the most gossipy one.

"Do you have any humanity? I'm trying to carry forward the spirit of friendship. I've helped you so

much. I've been running errands all day. You even begrudged any gratitude to me. All your

conscience has nowhere to be seen.” Charles said with a feeling of chill.

"You have nothing else to do.”

Christina summed it up for him handsomely and walked towards her father's ward. Chandler and

Crystal smiled at each other and followed her to the ward.

Charles stood still and looked at their backs helplessly.

These guys were indeed heartless.
