I Hope You Will Never Regret

A few minutes later, Valeria was wheeled to the private ward. Mr Moore looked at his wife and asked, “Valery, where did you get the money from? Do we have secrets between us?”

Valery decided to lie and replied, “Valencia used to give me a monthly allowance when she was still alive. I hid this money for a rainy day.” Her husband looked at her for a long time, but he decided not to pursue the matter.

When Valeria woke up, she was surprised to see her parents sleeping beside her bed. She screamed when she saw that her legs and her arm were in a cast. Her parents woke up, and her mother asked, “How are you feeling, Sweetheart?”

The nurse rushed to Valeria’s private ward when she heard the scream. Valeria looked at her mother and asked, “How did I arrive here?” The nurse looked at her and replied, “The paramedics brought you here.”

Her mother asked, “We were told that you were involved in a car accident. Were you drunk?” Valeria shook her head and replied, “I wasn’t drunk, Mom. After I received your call, I became sober, but I was absent-minded when I was driving.

I didn’t see the car in front of me and I bumped into the Bentley. The owner asked me if I had the insurance to pay for the repairs, then she beat me up until I fainted.” It was clear to her parents that it was road rage.

Valeria looked at her mother and said, “Mom, I hope my brother-in-law will forgive me for assaulting his precious daughter. I thought he would choose Sage over his wife. Unfortunately, it was my wishful thinking.”

Her mother nodded her head and replied, “The Taylor family forced us to take Sage with us. They indicated that Sage was no longer a member of the Taylor family, and they refused to change her last name to Taylor.”

Valeria was dumbfounded. She looked at her mother and said, “Mom, your granddaughter is evil-hearted. One day she will turn her back against us.

How are you going to explain to her that you gave her mother the medication that caused her to have a brain tumour? Sage is like a ticking time bomb.”

Mr Moore looked at his daughter and asked, “What are you talking about Valeria?” Mrs Moore shook her head and replied, “Valeria is spouting nonsense. I didn’t know the side effects of the medicine I gave my eldest daughter.”

Valeria shook her head and said, “Dad, the doctor told my mother that the medicine would make the pain go away, but it would accelerate my sister’s death. Also, it would cause brain damage to the fetus.

Even though I was in love with Xavier, I didn’t want to kill my sister and her baby. I begged my mother not to give my sister the medicine, but she didn’t listen to me.”

Mr Moore slapped his wife hard across the face and asked, “Valery, were you planning to kill our granddaughter? How could you be so heartless?”

Mrs Moore rubbed her burning face and replied, “I told her to take a contraceptive, but she went ahead and got pregnant. I didn’t want Valeria to be a stepmother.”

Mr Moore was fuming with anger. He wanted to slap his wife again, but he decided against it. He then stormed out of the ward. He was disappointed in his wife. He decided to go home to check on his granddaughter.

It was 5 am when he arrived home. Then he quickened his pace and walked to the guest room. He switched on the lights, then he walked towards the bed.

Mr Moore heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his granddaughter sleeping peacefully. The swelling had gone down, but there were tears on her face.

Mr Moore reached his hand to wipe his granddaughter’s tears. He was shocked when he discovered that Sage’s body was burning. She had a fever. He took her in his arms and ran to the driveway. He then got into his car and rushed to the hospital.

In the hospital parking lot, Mr Moore spotted Dr Chase Forbes. He was aware that Dr Forbes was Xavier’s best friend and Sage’s Pediatrician.

He walked to him with Sage in his arms and said, “Dr Forbes, please help me, my granddaughter is sick.” Dr Forbes took Sage from Mr Moore and ran to the emergency room.

Dr Forbes placed Sage on the bed, then he took the thermometer and placed it on Sage’s forehead. Sage’s temperature was 40℃. Dr Forbes quickly gave Sage Acetaminophen to reduce her fever.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

When Sage’s temperature was below 39℃, Dr Forbes asked the nurse to move Sage to her private ward. However, the nurse didn’t have access to the Taylor family’s private wards.

Dr Forbes took his phone and dialed his best friend, Xavier. When it was connected, he said, “Hello Xavier, when I was leaving this morning, I met Mr Moore carrying Sage in his arms. Her body temperature was 40℃.

I managed to bring it down to 38℃. I want to move Sage to the Taylor family’s private ward, but I don’t have access. Do you want me to move her to the normal ward for now?”

Xavier sighed and replied, “Chase, Sage is no longer a member of the Taylor family. The Moore family is using her to harm my wife and to destroy our marriage.

Yesterday, Sage allowed Valeria to beat her up to frame my wife. She indicated that she hated the Taylor family for using their wealth to stop her maternal grandparents from visiting her. Then she told us that she wanted to stay at the Moore mansion.”

Chase was dumbfounded. The Moore family was twisting the truth. It was clear to him that the Moore family was sowing discord between Avery and Sage. He asked, “Should I ask the Moore family to pay Sage’s medical bills?”

Xavier indicated that Sage would no longer benefit from the Taylor family anymore. The Moore family should pay the medical bills. Then they hung up. Chase told the nurse to move Sage to the normal private ward.

Dr Forbes walked to the waiting room and approached Mr Moore. He looked at him and said, “Please settle the medical bills before we move Sage to the private ward.”

Mr Moore looked at Dr Forbes smiling and replied, “Dr Forbes, if I am not mistaken, the Taylor family owned this hospital and Sage is the Taylor family princess.”

Dr Forbes shook his head and asked, “Didn’t the Taylor family sever ties with your granddaughter? She is no longer a member of the Taylor family. Please settle the medical bills. I will keep her for observation until tomorrow morning.”

Mr Moore was dumbfounded when he heard Dr Forbes’ words and said, “Last night my youngest daughter was involved in a car accident, and we just paid two hundred thousand rand. I will take her back home and monitor her.”

Dr Forbes looked at him with fury in his eyes and said, “Sage has not recovered from her surgery, but you allowed your daughter to beat her up. The Moore family is shameless and heartless. Where have you been for the past five years?”
