When he confirmed the floor was clean, he returned to bed. No blood on the floor was a relief.
River would worry if she found out.
Axel didn’t want to add more trouble or concern for his mother.
The following morning, Scott arrived with a female doctor to examine Jamie.
Jamie woke up emotionally steady but had no recollection of the recent events. She couldn’t even remember who River was.
Despite this, she cooperated when the female doctor asked her questions. Then she rushed over to play with the three children.
River took the chance to talk to Dr. Freya Bailey.
“Dr. Bailey, what’s going on with Jamie?” River inquired.
Freya answered, “I believe that she has experienced severe acts of violence that led her to have a significant fear of men. The fear triggered her self–protection mechanism, which turned into anger that led her to attack males. The preliminary diagnosis is a severe mental disorder caused by excessive stress. I recommend you send her to the hospital
River felt troubled. “I’m not her family, so I don’t have the right to make medical decisions for her. Is there any other way to treat her condition?
Freya kept quiet for a while. “I can stay here and manage her condition with medicine for some time However, locating her family as soon as possible will still be more appropriate”
River said gratefully. “Thank you, Dr. Bailey. Just name the price. I will do my best.”
Freya smiled. “It’s fine. Dr. Wilson has already paid me.”
River was stunned, thinking. ‘Did he help her sort everything out again?”
Freya looked at River. “You have a good relationship with Dr. Wilson, huh?”
River blushed and nodded
In the afternoon, River took the three children to the Grand East Hospital to visit Lily
They walked to the hospital ward after getting out of the car without noticing a white car parked behind them.
Daniella sat in the car and watched River and the children with a ferocious gaze.
Soon afterward, she looked up at the hospital and wondered who they were visiting
A thought crossed Daniella’s mind She put on her shades hastily and followed them.
At the top floor of the hospital, Liora looked at the room before her. It’s very beautiful here,
-Mommy. I would like to live here, too.”
River was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. “Lia, this is a hospital. You shouldn’t try to live here. Here, knock on wood for good luck.”
Liora stuck out her tongue and knocked on wood
River led the three children to walk to Lily’s room.
Tears filled Liora’s eyes upon seeing Lily wearing an oxygen mask. She rushed to the bed and
Tyler’s eyes were also teary. “Mommy, when will Ms. Smith wake up?” he asked.
River was in low spirits. “I don’t know, but I hope that she wakes up soon.”
Axel was not close to Lily, so he did not appear very emotional. However, he said softly, “Don’t be sad, Mommy. Ms. Smith is a good person. She’s going to be well.”
River sniffed and looked at Axel, saying, “I’ll take your kind words as a blessing, dear. Ms. Smith is in her sick bed, so the three of you are all 1 have left. You must stay healthy.”
Axel’s gaze dimmed when he remembered his nosebleed. He said gloomily, “Hmm, we will.”
Daniella noticed Lily lying on the nearby sickbed. Apart from River and the kids, Lily’s family wasn’t around
Daniella smirked, thinking, River thinks she can keep Lily’s condition a secret? What a joke.
It’s unbelievable that I stumbled upon this opportunity! I won’t miss the chance to make things difficult for River.”
Daniella turned away and took the elevator downstairs.
Once back in her car, she dialed a number to inquire about Lily’s health. After that, she instructed her bodyguards to find Lily’s family’s contact details.
It didn’t take long for Daniella to obtain Lily’s son’s phone number.
After making the call, someone answered after a short wait. In a tearful voice, Daniella asked,
Hello, is this Mr. Hunter7”
Lily’s son, Wayne Hunter, asked, “Who is this?”
“Don’t mind who I am, Mr. Hunter. Ms. Smith is involved in an accident and is receiving treatment on the top floor of the Grand East Hospital’s ward.” Daniella sobbed softly
“What? Are you sure that it’s my mother?” Wayne raised his voice in disbelief.
“You may come and see for yourself at the Grand East Hospital if you don’t believe me.”
“I’ll report you to the police if you’re deceiving me” Wayne warned.
Daniella said, “Ms. Smith is a good person, Mr. Hunter. She helped me in the past, so I’m telling you out of kindness. Please don’t speak in this manner. You should be angry at the knew but didn’t tell you earlier, right?”
person who
Daniella fully disclosed Lily’s condition to Wayne, then ended the call after inciting him She casually wiped away the false tears she had shed as part of her act. Now, she just needed to wait for the drama to unfold
River walked out of the ward to receive a stranger’s call.
“Hello…”
“Are you River Healy?”
River was puzzled. “Who is this?”
Tm Wayne Hunter, Lily Smith’s son!” Wayne growled.
– River was stunned by Wayne’s call.
Lily had told her that Wayne lost touch shortly after she paid for his studies abroad.
Whenever she tried to contact him, he would abruptly end the conversation, telling Lily to leave him alone.
Afterward, Wayne actively distanced himself from Lily, leading to a decade of no communication.
So, what was the reason for his sudden return to her life?
River asked, “This is River. Is there something you need?”
“What’s going on with my mother?” Wayne asked loudly.
River realized that someone had informed Wayne about Lily’s situation.
“Isn’t it strange for you to call now, Mr. Hunter?” River asked.
Tm
Wayne said, “I’m the one asking the questions. What nonsense are you talking about?”
River replied coldly. “How do you even dare to ask me? You left Ms. Smith before, so what gives you the right to step in now?”
Wayne retorted, “And what about you? Who do you think you are to meddle in my family matters?”
River stated firmly. “You’ve cut ties with your mother. You forfeited any right to inquire about Ms. Smith. I’ll take care of her, you can return wherever you came from!”
“Wait and see! I’m going to make things difficult for you, you bitch!” +
River hung up her phone once Wayne finished his angry rant.
She sensed that the ungrateful Wayne would cause more problems soon!
Just when one issue seemed resolved, a new one cropped up.
Feeling mentally drained, River walked back to her room.
After having dinner outside, River and the children returned to Bayview Villa
Freya informed her that Juliet had fallen asleep due to the medication.
River expressed her gratitude and escorted the children upstairs for their bedtime routine. After spending some time playing and tucking them in, she went downstairs
She sat on the sofa, pondering how to deal with Wayne.
Kenny returned slightly intoxicated and joined River, noticing her distracted expression.
“G, what’s bothering you? Kenny asked teasingly.
River wrinkled her nose and pushed him back due to the strong alcohol smell on him.
“Stay away,” River said with disgust
Kenny grumbled, “I came to care for you, and you’re heartless!”
River sighed, exasperated. “I’m really upset, Kenny. Just be quiet, please.”
“What’s wrong?” Kenny asked innocently. “Tell me, and I’ll help you figure it out!” River stayed silent briefly before recounting the incident with Wayne.
Kenny couldn’t help but cuss after hearing that. “How can anyone do such a thing?”
River lifted her head. “So, please, let’s not create a scene-”
Before she could finish, a bodyguard entered the house abruptly. “Ms. Healy, we stopped someone who was trying to force their w way into the house.”
River felt fear and wondered if it were Wayne.
“Bitch! Come outside right now!”
Angry shouts echoed from outside, just as River thought about Wayne,
Kenny got up quickly. Tll go teach him a lesson“”
River grabbed Kenny’s shirt and urgently restrained him “Stop it!”
Kenny was furious “GI That ungrateful jerk is here! I can’t stand him insulting you like this!”
River stood as well. Tll handle it, don’t get involved.”
“No!” Kenny refused. Im going with you!”
