Lily Hernandez watched quietly as the sky outside gradually darkened, and her face was slowly reflected in the glass window. She smirked self-deprecatingly.
Olivia, who came out of the elevator, saw her figure and rushed towards her.
"Lily Hernandez, you insane bitch! Just because your two old folks died, you think you don't have to pay us back the money you owe us?" She pointed her finger at Lily Hernandez's nose and cursed loudly.
For a moment, everyone in the hallway stopped to look at them.
Thinking of her brother and little Chen Chen in the hospital room, Lily Hernandez tried hard to suppress her anger and said in a low voice, "This is a hospital. Let's talk outside."
"Oh!" Olivia intentionally raised her voice. "Now you're ashamed? You better take out the money now! Otherwise, you and that sickly little brat won't have a good life!"
Then, as if thinking of something, she began to lean against the door of the hospital room, asking about the situation of the room one by one. "Where's the sickly little brat and that bastard? They should be here, too, right?"
Lily Hernandez couldn't take it anymore and grabbed Olivia, staring at her fiercely.
This aunt of hers had been pampered and spoiled since childhood, and was arrogant and willful. Her father had previously cleaned up many messes for their family.
Later, when the Hernandez Group announced bankruptcy, her family had been clinging onto her father. Now that only she and her brother were left in the family, they still wanted to continue sucking blood...
Lily Hernandez sneered, "I'm not as soft-hearted as my father. If you continue to cause trouble, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Hmph!" Olivia continued to pester and make a scene in the hallway as if she had gone mad. "Don't you have the courtesy to take a look? Your father asked you to take good care of me before he died."
She broke down and continued to make a fuss in the hallway.
"If it weren't for your father offending someone, would my son have been framed and sent to prison? Your whole family is ungrateful!"
"Brother, look at how your daughter is treating me!"
"I risked my life to pull you out of the ruins back then, but now your daughter doesn't care about my life or death!"
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have saved you..."
More and more people gathered in the hallway, and many in the ward were also awakened by the commotion, standing at the door watching this farce.
The on-duty nurse also rushed over to try to persuade her, but to no avail.
Lily Hernandez looked at Olivia sitting on the ground, with a cold sneer in her heart.
The next second, she pouted, and two clear tears slid from the corner of her eyes.
Lily Hernandez covered her mouth, trying not to cry out loud, and stuttered as she defended herself.
"Auntie, how could you say that about Dad?"
"Cousin once misappropriated company funds, but thankfully, Dad discovered it and covered the hole."
This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.
"At the time, Uncle brought his mistress home, but my mother resolved it..."
"If my dad were still alive..." Lily Hernandez couldn't help but cry out, "He would be so heartbroken."
Olivia had never seen Lily Hernandez "throw a tantrum" in public before and was momentarily stunned, forgetting to speak.
The people around them were not foolish, and they all stood on Lily Hernandez's side.
"Auntie, you're injured, don't make it difficult for the young girl."
"Yeah, yeah, this young girl has it tough too."
"We're all family, don't force each other, let's go home quickly..."
Lily Hernandez proudly glanced at Olivia and empathetically said, "I've had a tough time recently, please forgive me, Auntie."
At this point, the hospital security guards also rushed over.
"Hello, the hospital prohibits noise, please leave immediately."
Olivia glared fiercely and broke free from the security guard's grip, lunging at Lily Hernandez.
Lily Hernandez didn't expect her strength to be so great, and when she tried to dodge, it was too late.
At this point, a burly man in a black suit appeared in front of her, grabbed Olivia's arm, and threw her to the ground.
Olivia was scared by the sudden appearance of this person and didn't dare to act out again. When she was dragged away by the security guard, she was still cursing.
After she left, Lily Hernandez began to apologize to the others, "Sorry for the disturbance."
The people around them gradually dispersed, and Lily Hernandez only then noticed Michael Lee looking at her with a smile.
"What are you doing here?" she asked in confusion.
Michael Lee pointed to the wristwatch on his wrist and said in a calm tone, "Time."
Lily Hernandez's heart sank when she saw that the hour hand on the watch was already pointing to eight o'clock.
"It wasn't intentional," Lily Hernandez explained meekly. "You saw it yourself, that woman is crazy and I couldn't get away from her."
Michael Lee remained silent with a serious expression.
"Is he angry?" Lily Hernandez didn't know much about this man and didn't dare to speak out of turn.
"Let's go, let's get the marriage certificate," the man said coldly.
After obtaining the marriage certificate, Lily Hernandez clenched the red booklet in her hand. She never thought she would actually get married and become someone else's wife.
Michael Lee stared at her and asked, "Wife, why didn't you smile in the photo just now?"
Seeing that the man was unhappy, she turned her eyes and leaned in to kiss his lips.
Upon seeing this, John tactfully leaned back, quickly turned around, and closed the hallway door, while he stood guard outside.
It was also the first time Lily Hernandez took the initiative to kiss him, and she slowly explored, following Michael Lee's lead, as their lips met.
After a brief surprise, Michael Lee was satisfied and slowly enjoyed her initiative.
Although the girl's technique was quite unfamiliar, it was enough to be heartwarming.
He stopped teasing Lily Hernandez and reached out to pull her into his arms, launching his own attack.
After Michael Lee left, Lily Hernandez looked at her swollen lips in the bathroom mirror, annoyed that this man didn't understand how to treat a lady.
How would she explain this to her brother when he saw her later...
...
Lily Hernandez returned to the hospital room where David Hernandez, who had been sleeping, had already woken up. Seeing Lily Hernandez's rosy complexion, he immediately understood what had happened.
"Did you get a boyfriend?" he asked.
Lily Hernandez was stunned and didn't know how to answer. She had skipped the boyfriend part and gotten married to the man who helped them out.
"Is it the man who helped us just now?" David Hernandez asked.
Lily Hernandez remained silent.
Thinking she was just embarrassed, David Hernandez said gently, "I'm not that old-fashioned. The engagement with the Huo family has been lifted, as long as that person treats you well, I will support you!"
Lily Hernandez nodded and smiled, "He treats me very well."
If she denied it, David Hernandez would definitely keep asking.
"So, you have to listen to the doctor, or else who will walk you down the aisle!" David Hernandez rubbed her head and said, "I'm sorry, I should have protected you..."
When he was a child, he once talked back to a teacher and was called in by his parents. His mother had a miscarriage on her way there.
After Lily Hernandez was born prematurely and was weak, he made a firm decision to protect his little sister.
But he never thought that now he would have to let his little sister experience all these storms and hardships...
"I'm a heroine, of course, I have to be chivalrous and righteous..." Lily Hernandez's nose felt sore, and she choked, "Besides, I'm not taking care of you for nothing, there's interest to be paid!"
"Okay, okay~" David Hernandez smiled and said, "Lil sis is the best!"
"I just don't know when Lil sis learned to throw a tantrum?" He teased her on purpose.
Lily Hernandez rolled her eyes at him and said, "Shut up!"
Even when they were both so sick, he still had the heart to make fun of her.
David Hernandez raised his hands in surrender, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."
