Chapter 20 She Would Not Let Anyone Off


    Margery was very proactive and got down to work immediately.


    After making arrangements for Ethan and Bonnie to go to a kindergarten nearby, Margery spent nearly


    a month renovating the hospital. She asked Z toe back and continue to manage the finances


    for her.


    When Z saw Margery, she was shocked and incredulous. "Margery, you... What happened to you?"


    Margery could not help but clench her fist. She sighed lightly and said slowly, "I was in a car ident


    and burned my face. After stic surgery, I became this way."


    "That must have hurt so much!" Z felt distressed.


    "After going through pain, it doesn''t hurt anymore."


    Grief flickered in Margery''s eyes.


    Raising her hand to touch her face, she felt a touch smoother than before, which made her narrow her


    eyes.


    Five years had passed, and her body and face had recovered and became fairer and more delicate


    than before. But every time she touched her face, she could still feel the scorching feat and the sting of


    the raging fire burning on her skin.


    The despair of being unable to protect Andrew was something that she would never be able to forget in


    her whole life.


    Andrew was such a well-behaved and thoughtful baby. He was innocent yet he died in the fire and


    would never be able to call her mommy again.


    If it were not for Ethan and Bonnie in her belly, then she would have joined Andrew in death the


    moment she learned that Andrew had passed away.


    Looking back made Margery''s face tense and nk.


    Z was taken aback and quickly apologized, "Margery, I''m sorry for bringing up the past! But life will


    be better after hard times. You''ll have good luck in the future."


    "Probably," Margery chuckled lightly, not expressing an opinion.

    She was a person who had died once. She did not care about her luck in the future and only wanted to


    raise Ethan and Bonnie safely.


    As for those who hurt Andrew, she would not let anyone off!


    With Z''s help, the hospital was quickly renovated, and doctors and nurses were recruited and ready


    for work.


    Everything went smoothly for Margery until she needed to apply for a business license.


    At the Health Bureau, Margery was very confused when she was coldly rejected by the staff at the


    counter. "My documents areplete, and my IDs are all here. Why can''t you issue a license for me?"


    "I don''t know. It''s an instruction from the higher-ups."


    An instruction from the higher-ups?


    Margery was slightly depressed and subconsciously thought it was Golden''s fault.


    Then she realized that it was impossible!


    She just returned to H City, and within a month, she changed her face. No matter how powerful Golden


    was, there was no way he would know that she was her.


    Margery thought about it but could not think of anyone who would deliberately make things difficult for


    her, so she walked out of the lobby and called Melvin.


    On the other end of the line, Melvin immediately became furious. "What? They wouldn''t issue a


    business license? No, it''s impossible! I bribed each and every one of them ten days ago, and they all


    agreed to it at the time. Margery, wait for me. I''m going to head over right now and teach them a


    lesson."


    "Not yet. I''ll see if I can get it done."


    Margery frowned slightly and hung up, thinking about what went wrong.


    Since Melvin bribed them already, no one would refuse to issue the license and risk offending the


    Collins family.


    In other words, since they dared not issue it for her, the person in charge was not afraid of offending


    the Collins family at all.


    It was probably someone who did not get along with the Collins family. Two families had a conflict, and


    she was caught in the crossfire.


    Thinking of this, Margery stood in front of the staff''s counter again and asked politely, "If the higher-ups


    don''t agree, I won''t ever obtain my business license, right?"


    "In principle."


    "Then tell me who the person in charge is, and I''ll go find him."


    Margery''s voice was cold. She was confident and frightening. The staff was scared and reflexively


    pointed to the left. "The first office behind the door. Mr. Lau."


    "Okay."


    Margery took a deep breath and walked over quickly with a stack of documents in her hands. She


    knocked on the door politely and watched as the middle-aged man behind the desk spoke. The other


    party only made a few casual remarks asking her to wait without providing any further details.


    "Then... okay. Please process it as soon as possible, Mr. Lau. Thank you."


    Margery walked out of the office and had no choice but to sit on the green armchair in the lobby and


    wait anxiously.


    Feeling irritated, she habitually pulled on her hair, messing up her long ck hair.

    When Golden came out of the director''s office and walked to the lobby, he saw a woman he had met


    once in that warm city in the south half a month ago.


    Just because that woman was so beautiful that she shone.


    Under the crystal light, her facial features were charming and beautiful, but she did not care about


    others'' gazes as they were breath-taken by her looks. She only focused on herself as she pulled on her


    long hair with irritation. She frowned, and her red lips pursed slightly. Her conflicted expression was


    extremely simr and made him feel as if he was looking at Margery from five years ago.


    Obviously that woman was no longer there, and he was indifferent to her in their marriage, but her past


    micro-expressions were imprinted in his memory and still fresh on his mind.


    He nced to the side a little, looking deeply at Mr. Lau, who had just greeted him warmly from the


    office, and asked casually, "What''s wrong with her application?"


    Everyone came here to apply for a business license. Based on her anxious appearance, she must


    have failed.


    Hearing this, Mr. Lau was stunned and immediately smiled. "Mr. Barrett, this is what''s happening.


    There is no problem with her application, but she was introduced by Melvin. There used to be conflicts


    between my old man and the Collins family, so... But don''t worry, Mr. Barrett. We''ll still process her


    application, but it''ll be dyed by ten days to half a month."


    Golden understood and asked more casually, "Do you know her name?"


    "I know, Margery... Margery Byrne! Yes, that''s the name, that''s right."


    "Her application. Do you have it here?" Golden''s expression remained unchanged, but his almond


    ck eyes immediately narrowed.


    No one knew that the word Margery was like a booming thunder that cracked his heart and caused


    stormy seas underneath his icy facade.


    "Yes! Wait a moment, Mr. Barrett. I''ll bring it to you right away."


    Mr. Lau ran into the office and quickly ran out again. Ignoring the cold sweat on his forehead, he


    handed over the information in his hand respectfully. "Mr. Barrett, all the information is here."


    Golden nodded lightly and gracefully took it with two long fingers. He nced down at the applicant''s


    name and the photo, which was a facepletely different from Margery. After a while, he said,


    "Process it for her if there''s no problem with it! I owe you a favour."
