CEO's Dumb Bride

Chapter 188 Why Are You Here

Chapter 188 Why Are You Here

Lilian pursed her lips, not believing her words. She was lying here, but Paul had never shown up. He was even unwilling to pay the medical expenses. So, she must not be OK.

Fabiana said, "Why are you here? Don't you need to go back? Mr. Landau will be angry, right?"

Lilian did not care. She had already come to the hospital. If she had not visited Fabiana today, she might never see her again.

Lilian shook her head and gave Fabiana a reassuring look, asking her not to worry.

But she was lying. She remembered Francis's words. She didn't know if he had been trying to scare her but would not feel surprised if he did such a thing for real.

She gestured, "I will leave after you finish the infusion. And I will hire a carer for you later.

Fabiana repeatedly shook her head and said, "No! Don't waste money. I am old. And I am happy to see you again. I was wondering whether I would turn over in my grave if I could not see you before I die. Now, I feel relieved and will rest in peace."

Hearing this, Lilian couldn't help shedding tears.

Although they were not blood-related, they were like grandmother and granddaughter. They were like real family because they were both alone. They could feel each other's bitterness and sadness, so they truly empathized.

"Come on, Lily. Don't cry. I am happy to see you. And I want you to be happy too."

Fabiana raised a hand and tried hard to wipe her tears.

Lilian sniffed, raised her hand, casually wiped her face, and smiled at her.

Fabiana also smiled, "What a good kid!"

But their smiles were both bitter.

Lilian shook her head and gestured, "I'm not a good kid. If I were so good, I wouldn't have let you lie here. I'm sorry." Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Don't apologize. You've done enough for me. I am happy to meet you."

Then, Fabiana mumbled to herself and promised, "Lily, you will lead a happy life. I will guard you in heaven."

Lilian cried even worse. She desperately shook her head and gestured in panic, "I don't want your guard me in heaven. I want you to recover!"

Fabiana bitterly smiled because she could not make such a promise.

Lilian tightly held her hands and couldn't stop crying because she had to leave soon. While wiping her tears, she stood up and poured Fabiana a glass of water.

Then, she went out to hire a carer. Employing a carer to take care of Fabiana in the hospital was the only thing she could do now.

The hospital provided carers. The daily wage ranged from 500 to 100 dollars, according to the services included.

Lilian hired a 300-dollar one. After she paid the money and told the carer about Fabiana's condition, the latter said, "Don't worry. I will look after her."

Lilian breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the carer to express her gratitude. But when she turned her head, she saw Francis coming in. He looked travel-stained when he strode over. Although he was still far away, she could feel the chill from him.

Lilian subconsciously clenched her fists and blankly stood there, watching him walk toward her.

When he strode over and condescendingly looked at her in silence, she could feel his rage.
