At first, she didn’t know how best to explain the situation.

Fortunately, she decided to be honest about it now.

If this man had treated her better at the beginning, she wouldn’t be feeling this much guilt now.

It’s true that this man treated her poorly in the past; it was only after he became disabled that he started treating her somewhat decently.

From the moment they found out about all this, she didn’t speak the whole truth.

Now that everything has been said, she feels a great sense of relief.

After hearing all this, Yigol Novak and Suri Drew finally understood the whole situation.

They never expected such things to happen.

After a long silence, Suri Drew finally spoke.

“So that’s what happened. I had no idea.”

Yigol on the side immediately nodded in agreement. “Considering all this, I feel like the money I’ve spent wasn’t worth it.”

He genuinely despises men who act superior.

Even though he is a man, he doesn’t like such men.

Even worse are the men who mistreat their wives.

What kind of man is that?

They are no better than beasts.

That’s why he got so angry about all this.

Suri Drew on the side probably feels the same.

She immediately nodded without hesitation and said.

“Don’t speak anymore. This has made me reconsider helping him financially.” After these words, the old lady on the side sighed in resignation.

“It’s my moral conscience that compels me to look after him, I couldn’t just abandon him, so I have to have him by my side, always.”

Mrs. Walker nodded immediately and chimed in.

“Yes, we did advise her back then to let it go, but she felt that it would be impossible to live with herself, so she persevered.”

To be honest, they can understand the old lady’s current feelings.

If they were from that generation, their decisions would have probably been similar to hers.

After all, morality was highly valued back then.

Even if you were a couple and the husband abused the wife, she had to endure it.

If the wife had done something wrong, it might be understandable, but sometimes men would vent their emotions on women for no reason.

In the mentality of the older generation, once you’re married, there’s no divorce.

Divorce is seen as a very unfortunate event.

So even if it meant suffering alone, they wouldn’t choose to get a divorce.

Even if the situation is this terrible now, they still choose to have him by their side and take care of him with great hardship.

Yigol Novak and Suri Drew looked at each other, feeling very conflicted.

They were sure they felt the same. They didn’t want to spend any more money on this man.

If the man had treated the woman better, it would’ve been fine. But he was so cruel to her, any money spent on his treatment now would be wasted.

But they had already come this far, giving up halfway would feel improper to some extent.

Furthermore, even if they didn’t help the old man, he would still be under the old lady’s care, which was a burden for her.

All these reasons left them in a state of uncertainty, unsure of what to do.

They exchanged looks, but after a long time, they still couldn’t come to a good conclusion.

Seeing their state, the old ladies probably guessed what they were thinking.

If this were Mrs. Walker’s own situation, she might have made a decision a long time ago.

But this matter doesn’t personally concern her, so she hesitated.

Should the words she suppressed be spoken, and how to make their choices, would it be up to these old ladies?

After a long while, the old lady finally sighed gently, raised her head, and said to them.

“I can take care of him by myself. There is no need for you to spend time and money.”

She thought she would acknowledge this and move on, but the words she spoke were different.

This put them in a difficult position.

They didn’t want to put all the burdens on the old lady. It was hard enough for her already, and now she had to take care of a man who had treated her poorly.

How could this not be considered a heavy blow to her?

After a lifetime of hardship, she finally had the chance to enjoy some peace, yet she still had to carry the burden of this sick man. It’s as if they’ve been suffering for a lifetime.

This left them speechless.

For a while, they were really conflicted and didn’t know what to do.

After a long pause, Yigol Novak finally took Suri Drew’s hand, gently shook his

head, and said,

“Let’s discuss it later, let’s discuss it later.’

Hearing this, Suri Drew immediately nodded and agreed.

“Yes, our mood just improved a little. Let’s not let these unpleasant things affect us.”

The two old ladies were very supportive of this and nodded immediately.

After a while, they finally arrived at their destination.

They all got out of the car together and, under the assistant’s leadership, arrived at a VIP ward.

You could tell that Yigol put a lot of effort into selecting the best for the patient.

Besides, he had also hired several nurses.

He did this because he didn’t want the old lady to continue struggling.

So he made this choice.

But after he learned about all these things, he began to question whether all these efforts were worth it.

When the assistant led them into the ward, they found that no one was inside.

This puzzled them, and they were totally at a loss.

“What happened? Where’s the old man?”

Suri Drew raised an eyebrow and asked.

The assistant was also surprised. Scratching the back of his head, he said in a puzzled tone,

“When I came down, he was asking for you. I have no idea what happened..”
