At Resilient Care Hospital, the vice director of the emergency department examined Mrs. Jenkins and then asked Olivia Jenkins to speak with him privately.
âOlivia, you know that your grandmother has severe underlying conditions.
Right now, her status is not looking good.â
Oliviaâs almond-shaped eyes show a hint of worry, âMy fatherâs death hit her hard, her health has been deteriorating. I sent her to a nursing home for a peaceful recuperation. She was recovering pretty well until some more trouble arose. I guess sheâs disheartened.â
âYou need to be prepared. If she remains stable and is taken care of well, perhaps she could live another one or two years. If she gets hit with another blow, her heart might not be able to handle it, and the danger could be imminent at any time. Try to keep her comfortable, help her view things from a lighter perspective, avoid letting her dwell on stress, and accompany her often. â
Olivia nodded, âI got it, thank you, vice director.â
âNo problem! Mrs. Jenkins will continue being observed in the emergency department for the moment, by this afternoon, Iâll run some more tests on her before letting her return home.â
âAlright!â
Seeing Olivia return, Hannah Jenkins asked coolly, âWhat did the doctor say?â
âShe canât take any more stress.â
Although infuriated, Hannah suppressed her anger, âSince last night, I havenât been able to contact my mother or George Jenkins. Does this have anything to do with you?â
Olivia gave Hannah a disdainful look, âAs long as they donât return the Jenkins Groupâs money, I wonât let it go. Hannah, behave yourself, or else Iâll make sure you, your mother, and sister are despised by everyone. You understand what I mean, the DNA test report that I showed you is absolutely true. If you donât
believe It, you can check It yourself.â
Suddenly, Oliviaâs words pierced Hannahâs heart like a sharp knife.
Hannahâs face turned pale as she avoided Oliviaâs gaze, unconsciously wringing her fingers.
Oliviaâs beautiful face glazed with a cold arrogance, sternly warning, âIf you know how to behave, I might leave you with a way out, and food to eat. If you start spouting nonsense in front of Grandma, you will never see the light of day again.â
âWhat do you want to do to my mom? Are you going to send her to prison?â Oliviaâs voice was chillingly cold, âThatâs not for you to ask. Everyone has to be responsible for their actions. Even if I decided to let your mom and Henry Charles off, the Daily Finance Debt Company would not necessarily do the same. Whatever leverage your mother has in the group, she has stopped just as deep a hole for herself.â
âThe more she takes, the deeper the pit she has dug for herself.â
After a long pause, Hannah finally blurted out an inane comment, âYouâre trying to scare me!â
Olivia sneered, scornfully saying, âDo you think youâre worth my efforts to intimidate? Let me tell you this, I donât have to do anything myself, the first person that wonât let your mother off is Henry Charlesâ wife. Make sure to keep your eyes open and watch your mother pay for her adulterous deeds. If youâre planning to follow in her footsteps, I would be glad to help that happen. Henry Charlesâ wife wonât spare you or your brother either.â
In that moment, Hannah fearfully collapsed onto the floor, staring blankly at Olivia.
For a long time, she couldnât utter a word, she was engulfed by fear.
She didnât want to become an object of ridicule.
She didnât want to become universally despised.
After Hannah went to the restroom, she saw some nurses looking at her with disdain, leaving her feeling stunned.
On her way back, passing through the infusion hall, she overheard a news broadcast that made her realize that the scandal involving her mother and Henry Charles was now public knowledge, and Olivia would certainly not let them off.
Feeling extremely humiliated, Hannah found a secluded spot and burst into tears.
âI heard you wanted to see me.â
Instantly Hannah looked up to find Benjamin Johnson..
