Chapter 254
Starting with A Divorce novel (Ainsley and Cason)
Chapter 254 The Day Before She Dies Ainsley looked at Mary with a questioning gaze. She didnât think that a mother who loved her child would be uncertain about it when this matter was mentioned. From the beginning to the end, Ainsley did not find any guilt or sadness in Maryâs eyes except for numbness and happiness.
What was Mary happy about?
Suddenly, Ainsley thought of a possibility. She narrowed her eyes slightly. âBefore Nancy committed suicide, did you find out that she got AIDS?â
Mary trembled, her face full of fear, denying quickly, âNo! I didnât. I knew it in Mr. Fordâs office.â
Her face was pale, and she wouldnât admit it.
But Ainsley was clear that Maryâs reaction in Mr. Fordâs office that day was abnormal. A mother would be either angry or sad when she found out that her daughter got AIDS, but Mary did not react at all.
âTo be honest, it seems that there is no point in hiding it now.â
Why didnât Mary realize it?
If Mary cooperated, perhaps Ainsley would give them some compensation because of her sympathy, but Maryâs actions made Ainsley disgusted.
Maryâs face was pale. She was hesitant for a while and finally said, âYes, I knew it the day before she died.â
The day before Nancy died...
It was sunny. When Mary was tidying up the room, she found a diagnosis. She looked at it suspiciously for a long time but failed to get anything from it.
However, she only needed to check the medicine on the table to know what it was.
In the afternoon, Nancy returned home from school and had no idea what was waiting for her at home.
As soon as Nancy opened the door, Mary went straight to her and slapped her, shouting, âBitch!â
âMom? What do you mean?â
âHow dare you? Do you know what you are doing? I spent so much money and made so much effort to support you to go to university, not for you to mess around there!â Mary was furious.
Nancy realized something. She looked at her desk. âYou rummaged through my private things?â
âDonât be so harsh. You are my daughter. I helped you tidy up your things and accidentally saw the medicine. Now you must answer me. What exactly is going on?â
Mary couldnât bear her talented daughter being infected with this kind of dirty disease.
In Maryâs opinion, the people who got AIDS were all promiscuous.
Nancy felt desperate. âMom, I got AIDS because of my exâboyfriend.â
Nancy suddenly thought of what Ainsley had told her. âYour mom will only care more about you.
After all, itâs not your fault...â
Nancy seemed to hear the cry from the bottom of her heart.
She looked at Mary expectantly, looking forward to her concern and comfort. Nancy just hoped she would say that it was okay and that she would be protected.
However, nothing happened. Nancy could only see Mary dodge as if she was avoiding a dreadful monster. âDonât get close to me! Get away!â
Nancyâs outstretched hand suddenly stopped. She saw her mother looking at her as if she was a dirty thing.
âMom, I...â
âDonât call me that! I worked so hard and supported you to go to college so as not to let you mess around. And you even got this kind of dirty disease.
When did you get it? Donât try to infect your brother!â
As Mary spoke, she asked her son to return to his room quickly and locked the door.
Nancyâs eyes darkened at that moment. The strangers in the consulting room could say to her gently that she didnât need to be afraid. Mary claimed to love her the most, but Nancy didnât know why Mary tried her like this.
âI am not dirty. The teacher said that there was hope for me.â She looked at Mary with a glimmer of hope.
But Mary just said worriedly, âShut up! Stop talking nonsense. You canât be cured. One who got the disease canât be cured. Besides, you have no money to pay for the treatment. And you canât get a cent from our family!â
At that moment, Mary looked at Nancy without a trace of pity, only anger and fear.
Nancy was originally filled with despair, and the hope that was gradually recovered by Ainsleyâs words was gone.
Nancy fell into despair at that moment. Her face was pale, and she looked at Mary, saying with a trembling voice, âMom, I didnât want to ask you for money to treat my illness. I just...â
She added the rest of the words in her heart, I just want to get a few concerns. Can you share some of them that are given to my brother to me?
What Mary said about painstakingly supporting her to go to college was fake. The tuition fees and living expenses were all earned by Nancy through her partâtime job during the winter and summer holidays. And Mary would ask her for money from time to time.
Nancyâs eyes were red, and Mary was searching for information about AIDS hurriedly. âYou canât live with us after getting AIDS. Where is that jerk?
You got AIDS because of him, so you must ask him for compensation! Go and ask him for 160 thousand dollars! Where is he? Take me to him!â
âHeâs gone.â
âWhat? What nonsense are you talking about?â Maryâs eyes were full of disgust.
After a long time, Mary said, âYouâd better keep it a secret forever. If you dare to let our neighbors know about it, I will beat you to death!â

ï¤Chapter 253 Loveâs Change of Heart ï¤Chapter 872 Nancy had been keeping silent since just now, looking at Mary with selfâmockery.
âI wondered if you have learned anything in school. The tuition fees are so expensive, and you still become like this. It would be better if you gave me your expensive tuition. In that case, I can buy a house for your brother.
âI think you shouldnât go to school from today on. The previous tuition fees are gone, and the rest of the tuition fees will be saved for me. Maybe they will return the tuition fees when you drop out of school.
âForget it. Itâs all over. Your life will be helpless since you got such a dirty disease!
âYou take good care of your brother at home. I will go out to buy some food. Remember, donât touch him. If you dare to infect him, we will all die!â
What Mary did not notice was that Nancy looked out of the twentyâstory window as she scolded.
Of course, Mary did not tell Ainsley everything, and she didnât mention the cursing words to Nancy.
âMrs. Conway, although patients who got AIDS cannot be cured, they will give free medicine for treatment, I believe that there will be a way to cure them. On the contrary, what they have to conquer are those harsh words. The virus cannot make her sad, but you can,â Ainsley said calmly.
