《Out Of Nowhere: Boss, Let Me Go》 Chapter 1 Sold Chapter 1 Sold At the Lord Seven-star Hotel... Cindy Cheng was feeling inexplicably nervous and uneasy as she sat quietly in the wedding room. She was going to get married with Horald Tao tonight, but her husband didn''t show up yet. They had been in love with each other for three years already. Horald Tao came from a financially stable family, even though they weren''t exactly rich. He was diligent, hardworking and promising. Cindy Cheng was very satisfied with the man she dearly loved. All she wanted was a peaceful and stable life with him. Ding! The door opened, but the lights suddenly went out. The spacious suite had turned really dark. Its atmosphere suddenly felt so depressing. "Horald, is that you?" Cindy Cheng called out. Her tensed breath almost got stuck in her throat. No one responded to her, but the sound of the footsteps was approaching. "Horald, can you turn on the light?" She was starting to get flustered. "Horald... Ah!" A strange and barbaric force suddenly rushed over. "You are not Horald! Who are you? Let go of me!" Cindy screamed form the top of her lungs as she tried to grab on anything around her. But her hands and feet felt too weak to move. What happened to her? "I''m your Brother Qin. Have you already forgotten about me? You fiance sold you to me as goods. Now, let me spend the wedding night with you," the man ordered. ''Brother Qin? Is he ude Qin?'' He was the son of the hospital president who had been desiring her. Cindy Cheng''s face became pale because of desperation. "Get out! Don''te near me!" she shouted. "It took me a lot of time and effort just to get you. Tell me one good reason why I shouldn''t touch you? Why don''t you just give up? How about I let your fiance tell you the truth?" ude Qin suddenly pulled Cindy Cheng''s hair. His face looked so ferocious as he started to lose his patience. Then, he dialed Horald Tao''s number. Cindy Cheng was feeling so humiliated. The phone was quickly connected. Before Cindy Cheng could shout at the phone for help, she was quickly shrouded with despair. Horald spoke as gentle as usual, "Mr. Qin, are you satisfied with my gift? Even though I will be married to Cindy, I have never done anything to her. Just keep your end of the bargain just like you promised, okay?" "What did he promise you? Tell me!" Cindy demanded. She gritted her teeth and wailed in grief. The hatred present in her eyes was cold to the bones. "Cindy..." Horald''s voice suddenly froze. Meanwhile, Cindy was trying so hard to control her emotions. Her heart felt too hurt to breathe. "Horald Tao, I''m your wife," she wailed. "Yes, you are my wife. So you should help me. Mr. Qin said that President Qin would give me a house if I agreed to this. Not only that, but he''ll also assign me as the director of the cardiosurgery department. Cindy, don''t you know how much time and money I have spent on your brother? You owe me that much. If you screw this up for me, I''ll cut off your brother''s medical expenses!" What Horald said stabbed into Cindy''s heart like a sharp knife. Despair overwhelmed her. She bitterly curled her lips and gritted her teeth. "Horald, you''re not human! You''re a sick man! If you dare touch my brother, I will definitely kill you!" "Then don''t let me down!" Horald then hung up the phone. The phone''s beep and the fire in ude Qin''s eyes cut off Cindy''s hopepletely. "Fuck off! If you dare to touch me, I will kill myself," Cindy threatened. Absolutely hatred shed in her eyes. "Don''t touch me!" Cindy screamed. "I already warned you! Get out of my way!" Along with her pierced heart, she felt a hot current running through her body. She tried her best to control herself, but her breath was getting hotter and hotter. The iron chain tied to her wrists collided with each other, badly mutting her hands. The pain was excruciating. Her vision started to get blurry. At this moment, the suite''s door was suddenly kicked open. The door banged loudly and shattered the ss near it. "Let her go." The voice sounded cold and sharp. Numerous well-trained men in ck rushed in to rescue Cindy. At the door, a tall man in a ck windbreaker slowly walked in. He had a murderous look on his face. The light suddenly opened, and everything was bright. But the man''s eyes still looked really dark. "Who dares to spoil my fun?" ude yelled angrily. But before he could see the person''s face, he was quickly knocked over to the ground by the men in ck. "Do you know who I am?! I''m the eldest son of the Qin family! The Qin family," he shouted, trying to instill fear to the men in ck. "The eldest son of the Qin family?" The tall man bowed and squatted down. His voice sounded as cold as ice. "When did the Qin family dared to act wildly in my territory?" The tall man was no other than Ethan Huo. He was believed to be the legendary devil, who took the whole cruise ship industry under his control. He was also the ruler of the Huo family, the most mysterious family in M Country. The cruise ship kingdom of the Huo family dominated three continents. They were a really rich family and no one dared to cross their paths. ude was scared to death as soon as recognized the man. He knelt down as his face turned pale. "Mr. Ethan, please forgive me. I really didn''t know this is the Huo family''s territory. If only I had known, I wouldn''t have the courage to barge in here." "Which hand did you touch her with?" Ethan Huo stood tall in front of ude and stared him down as ude begged him for mercy. ude suddenly seemed like a big coward. He was shaking his head. "No, I didn''t touch her. I didn''t touch her with either of my hands," he cried. "Well then, I guess both your hands should be disabled," Ethan Huo said with an evil look on his face. "Ah!" ude''s wail rang out all throughout the room. "Drag him out and call the Qin family to pick him up," Ethan ordered his men. His dark eyes were too menacing to look at. A gust of cold wind blew past the thick curtain and swept the whole room. The men in ck dragged the disabled ude out of the wedding room. Everything seemed to be quiet at this moment. Cindy tightly closed her eyes. Her forehead was wet with hot sweat. Her hands were still tied on the Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. bedside. She felt as if she was pinned down by a heavy stone, having a hard time breathing. "Hmm... Ahhh..." It was so ufortable. She heard the man''s footsteps approaching her. "Ethan..." Cindy sobbed. "Don''te near me," she said with a frail voice. Chapter 2 Im Married Chapter 2 I''m Married Cindy warned Ethan with a hoarse voice. They hadn''t seen each other for quite a long time already. Ethan, the eldest son of the Huo family, was a really powerful man and the one she once loved deeply. But she wouldn''t let him back in her life. She didn''t want to be involved with him in any way. She had paid too much, even at the cost of her family, when she was with him. They were simply not in the same world. No matter how much they loved each other, they wouldn''t have a good ending to their lives. She didn''t want to cross paths with him again. Cindy really just wanted to marry a good man and have a simply and good life. Ethan''s cold eyes swept over her weak body. His face looked really gloomy as he said, "Cindy, I''m back." "Please go away. Please..." Cindy begged. As her body got wet all over, she clung to the bed sheet under her. Ethan''s handsome eyes were deep and looked very cold. He didn''t listen to her pleads and took her to the bathroom. "Ethan, put me down. No! No!" Cindy screamed. She tried to kick herself out of his grip. However, he pressed her against the bathroom''s marble wall and turned on the faucet. Cold water poured down on her. The water was so cold that it pierced right through her bones. With an indifferent face, Ethan continued to refuse Cindy''s plead to get free. He raised his hand and sped her chin. "Tell me what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that I will eat you?" Being forced to look at him, Cindy trembled and said, "Can you let me go? Please, just me go." "Ungrateful woman! Is this how you treat your savior, the first man you loved?" "Stop it, please. I beg you. I don''t want to visit the past. Our rtionship had ended over five years ago. We can''t go back anymore. We have already broken up!" "Broken up? Cindy, are you kidding me? You started all of this. Do you think you cane and go as you like?" Ethan eximed, looking at her straight in the eye. How he wished he could crush this ungrateful woman. "Let bygones be bygones. What''s the point of pestering me now? I told you I was with you only for the money. Why can''t you understand that?" Cindy tried hard to calm herself down. Even if it wasn''t entirely his fault that her family had been destroyed, the Huo family yed a great part to force the Cheng family into a dead end. He didn''t even care when she broke up with him. He simply disappeared for five years. But now that she finally had a stable life, he suddenly showed up. Cindy didn''t want to go back to the painful past. Ethan pursed his lips. "Do you think I will believe such a ridiculous reason?" Heughed at her sarcastically. Cindy was panicking. Her heart was beating fast and loud. "Then what else do you want?" Ethan paused for a while. "Marry me!" He leaned closer to her and pressed his lips against her ear. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. "That''s impossible. I''m married," Cindy retorted. What she said obviously irritated Ethan. He red at her with his cold eyes. "Married?" Ethan sneered. "Don''t belittle yourself too much, Cindy. You were sold by your husband on your wedding night. You want a marriage like that?" He really wanted to shove that embarrassment to her face. Cindy was feeling furious, but she had to make up her mind quickly. "It''s none of your business. I would rather be like this than be with you again! Let go of me!" Cindy thought that this man must be crazy. He hadn''t seen her in over five years, and suddenly, he wanted to marry her. She was so heartless back then. She couldn''t understand why Ethan would want to marry her instead of hating her to death. Cindy bit her lip as Ethan approached her again. She couldn''t stand the hot current running inside her anymore. She was afraid that she would lose control of herself in any minute. "Don''t you understand that I''m married, you bastard?!" It was a long night... Until... Morning light came through the curtains, brightening the room. Cindy woke up and found that she was the only one on the bed. A sound of running water wasing from the bathroom. It was Ethan, taking a shower. Cindy didn''t want to stay there any longer. She was really afraid to face him again, so she quickly put on her clothes and left. As fast as she could, she hailed a taxi and headed to the Garden of Fragrance. It was a middle-grade neighborhood that was near the hospital. Cindy and Horald bought a wedding house there a year ago. But even though they were the ones who bought the house, it was written in her mother-inw''s name. Cindy and Horald lived there together with her mother-inw and sister-inw, but she hadn''t cared about these things. What she only wanted Horald to offer was an exnation as to what happenedst night. However, as soon as she entered the house, she was pped across the face and was driven out the house. The person who pped her, seemed want to beat her to death. "Bitch, how dare youe back?!" Beatrix Wu shouted. She was Cindy''s mother-inw. Cindy''s forehead hit the door. The pain she was feeling was so excruciating. Her face felt like it was being torn apart. She was struggling to get up, still feeling dizzy with the hard p. She took quick nce with all the strength she could muster and saw her mother-inw''s fierce face. Her sister-inw was also there, standing in front of her. Despite being not married, she was impregnated by someone who took pleasure in her. Cindy''s eyes turned cold. "Mom, why did you hit me?" "Don''t call me Mom! You are not my daughter-inw. You''re a bitch! You made Horald suffer, don''t you know that?! Our family''s really unlucky to be associated with a jinx like you! Get out! Get out of this house!" Beatrix Wu shouted loudly at Cindy. Mindy Wu, her sister-inw, held her head high and threw out Cindy and Horald''s wedding photo. The frame shattered in front of her. There were shards of sses scattered all over. Some of the sses even pierced Cindy''s legs. Mindy Wu was a rural woman with great strength. She could even throw Cindy around like a ragdoll. Cindy''s face darkened as she clenched her fists. "Where is Horald Tao?" she demanded. Chapter 3 Its None Of My Business Chapter 3 It''s None Of My Business "How dare you look for my brother? If only you had taken good care of ude, my brother wouldn''t have been fired. He is a promising cardiologist. And you ruined him!" She didn''t feel ashamed that she was an unmarried mother. She even began to teach Cindy a lesson. Cindy hadn''t expected that even her sister-inw knew that Horald sold her out. "Did you take a part in that?" Cindy asked. "Who on earth was the one ruining lives? How dare you stand in my house and me me?! Get out of my way. This is my house!" Biting her lips, Cindy was trembling in anger. "Why are you mad? Know your ce! You don''t deserve such a good man like my brother. Don''t you know what kind of person you are? You''re just an intern nurse who doesn''t have an education from a poor family. You are even depending on my brother to take care of your sick brother." Her eyes were full of disdain. Joyce looked at Cindy as if she was a beggar. "Don''t talk nonsense with her, Joyce. Drive that jinx out of this house! She''s just annoying everyone here," Beatrix yelled, pointing at Cindy''s nose. "Get out of my house!" Joyce quickly obliged and dragged Cindy out of the house. "Let me go!" Cindy demanded. She gritted her teeth and held back her anger. After all, she didn''t want to fight with a pregnant woman. However, when Joyce was trying to grab Cindy''s hair, she was identally stumbled by the door frame. Feeling that the grip on her loosen, Cindy turned around only to see her sister-inw was about to fall down. "Watch out!" In just a blink of an eye, Joyce fell heavily on the ground. She groaned in pain and blood started to ran down her thighs. "Ah! It hurts, Mom. It hurts so much," she cried out. Cindy rushed over to see what was going on with her. "What''s wrong with you? Don''t scare me." Cindy held her breath as she checked her sister-inw''s physical conditions. "Get away from her, you murderer! If anything happens to my daughter''s baby, you''ll definitely pay for it!" With anger in her eyes, Beatrix rushed to push Cindy away. "Mom, I''m a nurse. Let me have a look at her," Cindy insisted. "Don''t touch her!" At this moment, the elevator door opened. Horald walked out. He seemed to have been drinking and was definitely in a bad mood. He was in a total mess and had grown a beard overnight. Beatrix burst into tears when she saw her son. "Horald,e here. This woman killed your baby!" Horald quickly strode towards Joyce. "Joyce..." Horald called. "Brother, my baby... Save our baby," Joyce pleaded. "Honey, don''t be afraid. I won''t let anything happen to you." Horald then looked at Cindy with disdain. "If anything happens to Joyce''s child, I won''t let you get out of it scott-free!" He pursed his lips, picked Joyce up, and left. Cindy watched them leave as she stood alone in this bloody scene. All her limbs and bones seemed to be eroded by the coldness. Even though Joyce was Horald''s sister, she was an adopted child. They weren''t rted by blood at all. Cindy didn''t expect that the baby in Joyce''s belly would be Horald''s. The man who she believed to be honest and loyal to her turned out to be having an affair with his own sister. Now they even had a child together, and she was thest one to know about it. No wonder Beatrix didn''t get angry that Joyce was impregnated before marriage. Now, Cindy knew about everything. In the No. 2 People''s Hospital... The lights in the emergency room were all on. Beatrix and Horald were both restless. Cindy had never seen him so depressed. The doctor walked into the emergency room while looking through his medical records. "Who is the family of Joyce Tao?" the doctor announced. "I, I am. How is my grandson?" Beatrix hurriedly walked towards the doctor. The doctor didn''t look up, while his voice sounded really sorry. "The baby is gone. The patient had a hemorrhage. Her uterus must be removed. It will be very dangerous for her if her uterus weren''t removed. I need you to sign the operation agreement," the doctor exined. "What? That''s impossible! I can''t believe it. It''s impossible for her to lose her uterus," Beatrix was going crazy. She was crying loudly and her eyes had turned so red. Cindy stared nkly at the scene. Her heart felt like it was being pinned by a big stone. She could see in Horald''s eyes the stress and desperation. But she knew she couldn''t say anything that would offer himfort. All of a sudden, her phone rang. Cindy tried to ignore it, but the person on the other end kept on calling. She walked away from the emergency room and answered the call. "Hello?" But no one answered. Cindy was feeling a little impatient. Her heart stared racing because of rage. "Who are you?" There was still no answer. "Say something, or I''ll hung up!" "Why are you hiding from me?" the person on the other end of the phone said. The man''s voice was cold, low, deep, and maic. "Is this Ethan?" "Cindy, who said that you could run away from me?" His voice was tense. Cindy was annoyed and exhausted. "What do you want?" she irritatingly asked. "Marry me. You owe me this. Cindy, you can''t escape." "Just stop please. We''re not from the same world. I am just amon girl, someone who couldn''t afford the intrigues of your rich and powerful world. I beg you to let me go. Don''t bother me ever again!" Everything aboutst night felt like a crazy mistake for Cindy. She didn''t want to be associated with Ethan anymore. She made that promise five years ago. Meanwhile, Ethan''s car was already parked outside the hospital. Sitting upright in the back seat of his car, Ethan listened to the cold and mechanical sound of the phone being hung up. The cold look on his face was frightening. It was no way for him not to notice the bitterness and hatred in her tone. The light outside his car wasn''t enough to light up his cold and dark eyes. "Mr. Ethan, I don''t think Ms. Cindy is the type of woman who will betray you because of money. She must be facing her own difficulties," Leon, his assistant, turned around and respectfully said. He had witnessed how Ethan had survived the past five years. Of course he knew what Cindy meant to him. A sinister spark burst out from Ethan''s dark and sharp eyes. "Check out what happened to her five years ago." Outside the emergency room of the hospital... Cindy received a storm of curses as soon as she hung up the phone. "Cindy, you murderous bitch! How can you repair the damages you have done to my grandson and my daughter?! I want you to pay with your life!" Beatrix was out of control, pouncing at Cindy. With anger, she pped Cindy across her face hard, which was followed by a series of punches and kicks. Cindy was thrown to the wall, feeling an immense amount of pain. Dizzy and bloody, her vision had started to be blurry. She gritted her teeth and stood up. Cold sweat was dripping down from her. "This has nothing to do with me. The baby''s death wasn''t my fault," she tried to exin. Horald was irritated by what Cindy had just said. He pushed her against the wall and held her chin up. "Cindy, Joyce is going to die because of you. How dare you im it has nothing to do with you! I''m so stupid to marry such a cruel woman like you!" His voice shook in anger. Cindy tried to struggle out of his grip, but she couldn''t. She look at his angry face and refused to admit that it was her fault. "Really? Well, I''m also stupid for marrying a man like you! Get your dirty hands off me. Don''t touch me, you disgusting bastard!" she retorted. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath as she tried to control her emotions. But the pain she was feeling all over her body was too much to bear. Horald was so angry at Cindy that he wanted to kill her with his cold stare. "How dare you think I''m disgusting?! Do you know that I was fired because of you? That I lost my position in the medical circle? You''ve ruined me! You''ve ruined everything that I have worked hard for!" Horald shouted in frustration. He was a well-established man, but he lost everything in just one night. And it was all because of Cindy. Cindy shed a sinister smile, raised her eyebrows, looked straight into his eyes, and said, "So you married me just to use me, didn''t you? Without me, you wouldn''t even be Professor Wang''s disciple. You wouldn''t have even graduated with high credits, right? You are messing around with your sister and selling your wife to another man. Horald, I was so blinded by your fake loyalty and honesty. You''re the one who ruined me. You cost me years of my life!"Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Chapter 4 Give Me Ten Million Chapter 4 Give Me Ten Million Although Cindy was just a nurse and nobody knew her, she had always been the number one in the whole grade from primary school to high school. No one dared topare with her in terms of learning. It was not because she was proud, but because she was born smarter than others and learned everything faster than others. She was a real talented woman with high intelligence, and was known as Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. a talented child. If it weren''t for what had happened five years ago, she should have been someone that everyone envied. Mindy went crazy when she heard Cindy''s belittling her son. "Cindy, how dare youugh at my son? Get out of here! Harold, divorce her! We don''t want such a shameless woman." Cindy''s expression was even colder, with a charming smile on her lips. She straightened her back and said word by word, "divorce? Well, I''m willing to divorce. Horald, let''s divorce." She would rather not have such a distorted and dirty marriage. Horald frowned and said unwillingly, "think it over. Once we divorce, you will lose everything. The house is written with my mother''s name. It has nothing to do with you. You can''t take a penny from the savings. If you want to get out, you should apologize to President Qin and tell him that you seduced Mr. Qin because you are a bitch. It has nothing to do with me." It was not easy for him to be the attending doctor, and he was not willing to be fired like this. Cindy''s face turned pale. She didn''t expect this man to be so shameless. She couldn''t bear it and pped him hard in the face. "Horald, you will give me what I deserve. Otherwise, I will see you in court. " Without giving him any chance to refute, Cindy turned around and left. She couldn''t stay here for even a minute. It was not that she didn''t recall the past, but that Horald had consumed all her love overnight. She didn''t owe him. Even if he had helped her brother to cure his disease, she had spent a lot of money on their family. Out of trust, she even gave her sry card and credit card to him before marriage to let him take charge of the finance of the family. But she didn''t expect that their marriage could onlyst for one day. "Stop. Come back. I want you to apologize to Mr. Qin. Do you hear me?" Horald grabbed [Cindy''s hand from behind and tried to pull her back rudely. "Let me go! Let me go!" Cindy struggled and burst into tears because of the pain. "Let her go!" At this moment, a cold and domineering order pierced the sky. A big hand grabbed Horald''s wrist and broke his hand which was holding Cindy''s hand easily. "Stop! Let go of me." Horald was so painful that he broke out in a cold sweat, and his momentum was instantly half lowered. "Who are you? Why do you meddle in our family affairs?" How could Mindy stand by and watch her son being bullied. "Let go! Let go of my son!" But she was easily overturned to the ground by the men in ck brought by Ethan. Ethan didn''t take the weak Horald seriously at all and easily threw him out. He was tall and powerful, with a cold face. Behind him were several well-trained men in ck. He held Cindy in his arms as if dering his sovereignty, "Cindy, tell them who I am to you." When Horald and Mindy saw their intimacy, their faces turned green. Cindy tried to take Ethan''s hand off her shoulder. "What nonsense are you talking about?" "Cindy, who is he?" Horald''s face darkened, feeling that he was cheated on. Cindy didn''t want to continue, so she tried to exin, "I don''t know him." "You don''t know me? You forgot that you begged me not to stopst night." Ethan relentlessly exposed her lie. "What? You bitch! How dare you cheat on my son? !" "Cheat?" Ethan snorted with disdain, "You were in somewhere unknown when I was with her. Cindy, you have married him. Haven''t you told him that you loved a man deeply five years ago?" Ethan curled his lips. His dangerous eyes narrowed and covered her from top to bottom. Cindy was so angry that her face turned pale. She begged in a low voice, "Please stop, Ethan. I beg you." "What he said is true. Aren''t you an innocent girl? How could you have an affair with this man behind my back? Do you keep in touch with him all the time? Cindy, you take me as a fool!" Horald felt humiliated. Cindy closed her eyes and didn''t want to exin. She wanted to leave these two men who always wanted to torture her. A touch of coldness appeared on Ethan''s lips. "Do you think she is as dirty as you?" "What do you mean?" Horald was itching to have a try. He really wanted to p this man in the face. "I mean, you should me yourself for not cherishing it. If you hadn''t sold her outst night, I wouldn''t have had the chance to save her. If you hadn''t hurt her, I wouldn''t have intervened in her marriage and disturbed her life. Horald Tao, right? Listen carefully. From now on, Cindy has nothing to do with you." "Damn it! How much money do you think you have? What happened between us has nothing to do with you." "Leon, ask him to sign the divorce agreement." Ethan didn''t care about his yelling at all. Leon replied respectfully. He took out the divorce agreement from his briefcase and handed it to Horald. Horald''s face turned green with anger. He had never thought that he would be humiliated like this today. He tore up the divorce agreement as if it was a piece of trash. "You want me to divorce? Dream on! I''ve changed my mind. I won''t divorce you. I won''t let you seed." "Leon, let him sign it." Ethan''s Adam''s apple bobbed, and the air around him was getting colder. Leon pulled out another one expressionlessly, "Mr. Tao, just tear it up. There are still a lot of divorce agreements." Hearing this, Horald got angry. "No, I won''t. Cindy,e here." Cindy smiled bitterly and turned her back to him, refusing silently. It would be better if Ethan appeared and helped her get divorced. Otherwise, when she divorced herself, the Tao family would make a lot of rude requests. Mindy had long thought that this daughter-inw was not easy to deal with. She took the divorce agreement for her son, "son, are you stupid? Why do you not divorce? " "Mom, I''m not reconciled." Mindy was not reconciled at all. She rolled her eyes and nced at the divorce agreement, making a shameless request. "It''s okay if you want a divorce. Give us ten million and we will sign. And I want my son to go back to work in the hospital. Otherwise, there is no need to talk about it." Chapter 5 Divorce Chapter 5 Divorce "Let''s go to court." Cindy turned around arrogantly and didn''t want to see their sarcastic faces anymore. She straightened her back, showing no sign of weakness, but her hands that were hanging beside her tightened inexplicably. that ''s going too far! "Wait!" Ethan grabbed her slender wrist with his broad palm, and the ce where his skin clung to each other was as hot as a fire. He nced at the two indifferently and sneered, "ten million, right? As you wish. Leon, prepare ten million for them." "Ethan, are you crazy?" Cindy red at Ethan, trying to get rid of his control. "Yes, sir." Although Leon didn''t understand why Mr. Ethan would agree to the deal, he still took out the check. "Turn right at the first corner and you can cash it." Said Ethan, looking at Leon with his bleak eyes. Leon hurried downstairs without hesitation. He turn right downstairs and found it was a show selling funeral clothes. Mr. Ethan asked him to cash it, but it turned out to be... Mindy didn''t expect him to be so straightforward. She regretted it at that time. The man gave them ten million without hesitation. "Ten million is just the break-up fee. Besides, you have topensate me for my daughter who has lost her baby and her uterus. You destroy her and don''t want to get away with it. The baby is ten million and the womb is twenty million. If you don''t give me the money, I will tell the whole medical world that Cindy has an affair with another man during her marriage and ruined her husband. She is a cruel and wanton bitch." Mindy was so aggressive that she had a bigger ambition and began to push her luck. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Cindy smiled, "you are dreaming. I won''t give you even a penny, let alone ten million." She turned to look at [Ethan and wanted to take him away. "Ethan, it''s none of your business. Please don''t make trouble for me, okay?" She didn''t want to owe him. Ethan leaned against the window sill, his cold face hiding in the morning light. His long and straight legs were wrapped in his suit pants, looking strong and powerful. He looked up and fixed his eyes on her. "I''m your man. If I don''t care, who will care about you?" "You..." Cindy''s face turned red all of a sudden. This scene stung Horald''s eyes. Horald stood behind his mother, staring at Cindy and the man aside looking tall and great. She and that man looked like a perfect match, making him an outsider. He was her husband. "Cindy, have you already designed this? To be with this man, you make me sick on purpose." Horald felt that his chest was about to explode. Why didn''t he find out that she was such a person? Looking at him, Cindy said disappointedly, "now that you have thought so, do you think you will believe me if I say no?" Horald''s breath became heavier and he gritted his teeth. At this time, Leon had taken back the money. "Sir, here is ten million." Leon handed over the suitcase respectfully. Without blinking his eyes, Ethan pulled Cindy into his arms and said, "Give it to him." "No." Cindy screamed to stop him, but the man was so strong that she could not stop this. Mindy grabbed the suitcase from Leon''s hand before he gave it to her. But when Mindy opened it, her face turned blue and purple. When she looked up, her eyes were full of malice. She threw the money out of the box like a shrew. She began to throw tantrums on the spot. "It''s spirit money. What do you mean? Are you cursing us to die early, Cindy''s paramour? You are bullying us. My grandson is gone, and my daughter''s life is still uncertain. You don''t want our family to live. It''s too bullying. Give me ten million and return me ten million. " Mindy was about to pounce on them, but the bodyguards stopped her halfway. Horald felt more humiliated. "Cindy, you''ve gone too far." Looking at the spirit money floating all over the sky, Cindy was stunned. She couldn''t help looking up at Ethan. This man was so scheming. Pursing his thin lips, Ethan looked down at Horald and sneered, "now that you have got the money, sign the divorce agreement obediently." His serious aura made people shiver. "Leon, help Dr. Tao sign the divorce agreement." Leaving no chance for Horaldand Mindy to argue, he turned around and left with Cindy. Cindy was almost dragged out of the operating room. Behind her, Mindy''s hysterical curse was echoing. In a daze, Cindy left the hospital like in a dream. She didn''te to her senses until she was in Ethan''s car. "Stop the car." Chapter 6 Burn The Bridge After Crossing It Chapter 6 Burn The Bridge After Crossing It The car galloped at full speed. "What? You couldn''t wait to get rid of me right after you used me up. " Ethan turned his head and sneered. The two words "use up" were particrly stressed, and Cindy understood what he meant. The name of Lord Hotel shed through Cindy''s mind quickly. The scene of her being with Ethanst night instantly brought shame to Cindy. "You..." Cindy turned around and stared at him angrily. There was coldness on Ethan''s angr face. His dark and deep cold eyes looked wild and unrestrained, and his features were as three-dimensional as knife carvings. At this moment, there was a yful smile on his face, which looked evil and handsome. Cindy was stunned. The man in front of her exuded a domineering aura. Time was really powerful. In just five years, Ethan, whom she had known in the University, was frank, energetic and energetic. Now it seemed that all of this had disappeared. He smiled mysteriously. Cindy was smart and intelligent since she was a child. She passed all the tests and was admitted to the best university in J City. Because of his eloquence, coupled with his handsome face and figure, he was immediately admired by everyone in the school. Ethan was tall and strong. As the inheritor of the Huo family, he had a good status and great power. He was also a big shot in the school. There were many When they first met, Cindy''s clear and clean eyes moved Ethan for the first time. Before long, the two of them started a rtionship. Handsome men and beautiful women became a scenery in the campus. Unfortunately "What?" The corners of Ethan''s thin lips curled up. His voice was cold and deep. It seemed that there was no unforgettable story between him and Cindy. Cindy''s body trembled, and her memory was frozen in an instant, with tears in her eyes. "Stop the car. I want to get off." Cindy shouted. There was a dead silence in the car. Sitting in the back seat, Ethan looked as cold as a sword. C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org. Leon drove the car and looked back secretly from the rearview mirror. How could the woman who Mr. Ethan had been missing for five years be like this? "Focus on driving." An order was thrown coldly from the back seat. Leon stepped on the gas and the car sped up. "Stop the car!" Clenching her fists, Cindy stared at Ethan with her nails deeply embedded in her flesh. She wanted to get off the car. She had to keep a distance from this man. It took her so long to start over. In the past few years, she had been atoning for what she had done. She felt sorry for the Cheng family. All she did now was for the Cheng family. She didn''t want to pursue something unreachable. She just wanted to find a man to live a stable life. However, she didn''t expect that she would end up with this bad man, Horald Tao. Ethan''s deep and sharp eyes wantonly fell on Cindy''s face, but he was calm. Cindy bit her lips and felt a lump in her throat. She clenched her fists so hard that her body trembled. "Put me down. Stop the car." She raised her head and looked into Ethan''s cold eyes. Cindy didn''t dodge. "Okay, as long as you agree to marry me, I''ll stop the car." Suddenly, Ethan grabbed Cindy''s chin with his finger. "Ethan, I think I''ve told you that I''m married." "You don''t agree?" Ethan tightened his fingers. This woman was so serious and annoying. "Let me go!" The pain from her chin made Cindy''s eyes moist. The scorching breath sprayed out from Ethan''s cor. Cindy was pressed against the door and couldn''t move. She struggled desperately and resisted awkwardly. However, as if Ethan''s fingers were glued to her chin, she couldn''t break free at all. She felt that the temperature on Ethan''s finger seemed to follow this movement and poke into Cindy''s heart. "Ethan Huo!" Her voice was low. Somehow, Ethan''s heart ached. He frowned and his fingers began to loosen up. Cindy, who was curled up, quickly opened the door and said, "Ethan, thank you for what you did just now." She was in a hurry to run away from Ethan, but she forgot that the car was still speeding at the moment. "Creak..." The shrill sound of brake attracted the attention of passers-by. "You, are you asking for death?" Said Ethan in the car. Cindy straightened up. Her face was pale and colorless. A convertible whizzed past and the driver cursed, "Damn it! Can you drive?" Cindy jumped out of the car and shook her body. A trace of blood dripped from her hair to the ground. "I''m sorry, Ethan. It seems that I have to say thank you." A tall and strong figure stood in front of Cindy. "Stop!" "Ethan, I''ve thanked you. Please get out of my way. I think we have nothing to do with each other for a long time. There is no need to see each other in the future." Cindy tried to straighten her back, ignoring his burning eyes, clenched her fists and turned around. Marry him? It was just Ethan''s unwillingness. Five years ago, Cindy left without any reason, which made Ethan, the heir of the Huo''s financial group, feel ashamed. The shame of being dumped was spread as a joke in their circle. ha-ha. The Cheng family went bankrupt. Cindy was just a small intern nurse in the third grade hospital of J City, but it was not the reason why Ethan could control her. "Burn the bridge after crossing it, is it your usual trick?" Behind her, Ethan''s cold voice pierced through the clouds. The next second, he jumped out of the car, grabbed Cindy''s throat and locked it tightly. "It''s not that easy to escape. Cindy, I tell you, you will never escape from me for the rest of your life. " Cindy couldn''t breathe. Ethan''s domineering and cold words were like a rope, tightly wrapped around her neck, almost suffocating her. Struggling madly, Cindy tried hard to break free from Ethan''s grip and said, "E Ethan, Let Let me go." A crystal dropped from the corner of her eyes. The man''s cold and dark face softened in an instant and his hand loosened. Cindy coughed, but the scarlet on her face didn''t decrease. "Ethan, you''ve gone too far. It was my fault to dump you that year. Could you please let go of me, someone of little importance. I swear, from now on, I will stay away from you and never appear in front of you to annoy you." Cindy clenched her fists, and her nails pierced into her palms. Her body trembled slightly. Then she turned around and ran away. Cindy''s words made Ethan''s gloomy face even colder. "Mr. Ethan, shall we?" Leon got close to Ethan and stood in front of him. Out of the corner of his eyes, he gave a hint to the petite figure who was about to disappear. A cold light swept over. Turning around, Ethan said, "investigate that guy surnamed Tao carefully." Chapter 7 Something Happened Chapter 7 Something Happened In a twinkling of an eye, Cindy had fled several streets. The sun was burning. Cindy felt dazzling. She squatted down, crossed her arms and buried her head in it. Tears welled up in her eyes. Why did the god treat her like this? After being together with Ethan, the Cheng family suffered a devastating disaster, even including the loss of her unborn child. In the end, she was forced to stop her studies and run around for a living and the medical fees of her younger brother. An orphan and a mother had a miserable life. An old friend of her father couldn''t stand this and helped her get a position as an intern nurse in the No.2 People''s Hospital in J City. On the one hand, she could earn some living expenses, and on the other hand, her brother could continue to be treated in the hospital. children? Cindy was shocked. The words "Recover Pharmacy" were so conspicuous. "Miss, what do you want to buy?" The shop assistant greeted courteously. Cindy''s red eyes were full of tears, "well, I''ll buy a box of medicine for pregnancy prevention." The shop assistant nced at Cindy with a disdainful look on her face. She quickly took out the medicine box from the counter and handed it to her. "This medicine must be taken in twenty-four hours after the sex. Are you sure, miss?" Cindy took the medicine box, threw down a bill, and ran out of the pharmacy without waiting for the change. She was a nurse. How could she not know what the shop assistant was going to say next? The shop assistant curled her lips. Obviously, she had put Cindy in the group of restless people. Last night, it was her wedding with Horald. Satisfied, she waited for her husband in the wedding room. How could she know that she spent her wedding night with Ethan? Although she was in a daze, Cindy could clearly feel the existence of Ethan. He looked as if he was crazy with hatred. How could she think of anything else? She couldn''t repeat the same mistake! If she was pregnant with Ethan''s child again, it would only make things worse. She just wanted to stay with her mother and brother and live a safe life. Dark clouds gathered and thunder rumbled. In an instant, the God was making people feel breathless. She tore open the medicine box. The pink pill was small and cute, which didn''t match the current weather. Cindy showed a bitter smile. Cindy headed up and swallowed. Tears ran down her cheeks. The phone in the bag suddenly rang. The ID "Mrs. Amanda" kept shing on the screen. Deeply sniffed, Cindy tried hard to suppress her mental breakdown. "Mom." "Cindy, where are you? I''m so worried. I couldn''t get through to you the whole day. I asked Horald, but he said he didn''t know. Are you in conflict with Horald? Cindy you are still newly married. Don''t be childish. Cindy Are you okay?" Cindy''s mother kept talking, but she seemed to sense something wrong from her heavy nasal voice. There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone. Cindy had long eyshes, tears streaming down her cheeks, her fists clenched, and her fingernails pierced into her flesh. A burst of pain pulled her nerves to the top of her head. "Mom, I''m fine." Cindy calm tone implied her strong forbearance. "If nothing happened, at least tell me that you are safe. I can''t contact you for a day. Don''t you know that I will worry about you? Jason is in hospital. I don''t want anything bad to happen to you." "Mom, I''m really fine. Why are you looking for me in such a hurry? Is Jason..?" Her heart sank. It was obvious that her mother was in a hurry through the phone. As expected, something happened to Jason. Amanda asked Cindy to go to the hospital as soon as possible. Before Amanda could finish her words, she hung up the phone in a hurry. It seemed that there was the voice of Jason''s attending doctor on the phone. Cindy became more and more nervous. The medicine box in her hand fell to the ground, but she didn''t notice it. After a while, she stood on the street and waved at the taxi. She had to go to the hospital as soon as possible. The Cheng family''spany was founded by her father from scratch. It was mainly engaged in trade and had arge scale. Outside, his business was doing well, but because he had never read any books, it was a little simple for him to do things. This could be seen from the names of the sister and brother. That was why five years ago, her father trusted others easily and ruined the Cheng family. The rtionship between the sister and brother was so good. However, Jason had been weak and sick since he was a child and often went in and out of the hospital. There were many taxising and going. The words ''passenger in'' were all on the top light as if they Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. had made an agreement. They passed by Cindy. Jason, please be safe. Cindy murmured to herself, and the tip of her nose was soaked with fine beads of sweat. Not far away, a ck Bentley stopped at the roadside. Inside the car, the atmosphere was frozen. Frowning, Ethan stared at Cindy, who was in a hurry to hail a taxi on the street. He pursed his thin lips and his face was dark and gloomy, as cold as ice. "Mr. Ethan, it seems that Miss Cindy has something urgent to deal with. Do you want to send her back?" In the rearview mirror, Ethan was as calm as a deep ancientke, without any ripples. Leon stepped on the gas and the car sped up. He didn''t say anything, which meant he acquiesced. The Bentley stopped quietly in front of Cindy. The door was just opened a crack. A taxi came over quickly and made a detour. "Miss, where are we going?" "No.2 People''s Hospital of J city." Cindy opened the door and got in the taxi. Before she finished her words, she had already left. Cindy''s words slipped into Ethan''s ears. "Follow it." The Bentley followed her quickly. The moment the car started, Ethan caught a glimpse of the medicine box that Cindy had just fallen to the ground. "Wait!" Opening the door, Ethan got off the car and picked it up. The word "Mildeen" came into view. Ethan frowned. There were advertisements of this medicine all over the street, so he knew its function. Damn it. The fight with the Tao family was still deep, and she did not forget to make it up afterwards. How much did this woman dislike him? He was the only heir of the Huo Group. Many girls wished to have a baby with him. It happened that Cindy didn''t like him at all. Five yearster, it was still the same. Ethan held the box tightly. He looked in the direction of No.2 People''s Hospital of J City, and his handsome face was instantly petrified, cold and daunting. Ethan bent over and got into the car. The door was closed again. The two words, hard and cold, popped out from Ethan''s mouth, like an old well that had dried up for many years. He was speechless and bitter. "Go back." Sitting in front of him, Leon had a brainstorm in his mind. Should he report the current situation to Ethan first? The Cheng family had undergone a huge change. In the past five years, the life of an orphan and a lonely mother had not been easy. The most important thing was that after Cindy broke up with Ethan, the baby in her belly died. However, he hadn''t figured out the reason yet. After thinking for a while, Leon decided to wait until everything was clear. He knew Mr. Ethan''s temper very well. He couldn''t jump to a conclusion without solid evidence. Leon turned around and the ck Bentley drove away quickly towards the opposite direction of the hospital. Chapter 8 A Lucky Day Chapter 8 A Lucky Day The ambnce shuttled back and forth at the gate of No.2 People''s Hospital of J City. The air was full of tension, which made Cindy full of worry. "Driver, no change." Cindy opened the car door, took out the money from her bag, handed it to the driver, turned around and trotted all the way. Worried about Jason, Cindy walked in a hurry and only felt a sprain in her ankle. Cindy cried out in pain. "Ah..." She turned around. Her shoes were stuck in the gap of the road, and Cindy tried her best to pull them out, but failed. On their wedding night, Ethan suddenly appeared. Her sister had her husband''s child, and Jason was still lying in the hospital. The situation was unknown. What the hell was this big day? Didn''t Mrs. Amanda say that it would be a lucky day for her to get married? Now even her shoes would oppose her. Her silver high-heeled shoes were covered with water diamonds, shining in the light. These were the wedding shoes she and Horald had chosen together. She lowered her head in frustration, her fingertips cold, and the mist instantly filled her eyes. Cindy took off the other shoe, threw it into the trash can and walked into the hospital barefoot. Her feet were cold on the ground, but not as cold as Cindy''s heart. Both she and Horald worked in this hospital. Yesterday, they happily sent wedding candies to everyone. It was only one day, but everything had changed. With tears in her eyes, Cindy could not help but grin in pain every step she took. "Isn''t that Cindy? How dare shee back after such a thing?" "It''s not a big deal. She was with Mr. Qin on their wedding night yesterday. That kind of woman is a bitch who clings to the power. It''s not a big deal." "Look at her. You have to learn her skills. Maybe you can find a rich husband in the future." "Let''s go! Let''s go! Mind your own business!" Several nurses passed by her and gossiped in Cindy''s ears. These people were not in the same department with her, and Cindy didn''t know them. It seemed that the fact that she was sold to ude Qin had made her a "celebrity" in the hospital. Having no time to think about it, Cindy went straight to the stairs. Jason''s illness was what she was most concerned about now. In the corner of the six floor of the inpatient building was Jason''s room. The Cheng family''s livelihood was a problem after it went broke. Without the help of her father''s friends, Jason wouldn''t have a ward in No.2 People''s Hospital of J City. Although there were three rooms and the supporting facilities were notplete, Cindy was satisfied. When the Cheng family couldn''t afford the medical fees, Cindy went to the hospital''s financial department and said that she could still be in arrears for a few days, which was the most important reason. Nowadays, the Cheng family lived on Cindy''s sry alone, which was barely enough. In the past two years, with the help of Horald, Jason was able to continue his treatment. Horald Tao. His name was piercing through her throat, and she could not bear it. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Taking a deep breath, Cindy pushed the door open and shouted, "Jason." "Sister." leaning against the sickbed, Jason watched TV and ate the apple happily. Having been sick for a long time, he had already been used to the life in the hospital. "Cindy, here you are. Where have you been today? I couldn''t get through you. I was so worried." "Sister, I''ve been missing you for a whole day." Jason took a bite of the apple and smiled at Cindy. Amanda stood up and pulled Cindy out of the ward. "Cindy, the hospital is pressing for medical fees. Jason''s medicine had been stopped this morning, and Nurse Ming said it was an order from the hospital. I just asked Dr. Bai to help me, but he said he couldn''t make a decision. Cindy, please think of a way to fix this. They cannot cut off Jason''s medicine. You know his illness." An order from the hospital? Cindy sneered. Obviously, it must be ude, the dirty viin, who failedst night. He pretended to be the son of the president and yed tricks behind his back. Dr. Bai was the attending doctor of Jason. Cindy used to ask him to negotiate the medical fees before. "Cindy, hurry up. Jason can''t wait." Amanda held Cindy''s hand more and more tightly. As a nurse, Cindy knew better than her mother of the consequences of cutting off the medicine. "Mom, don''t worry. I''ll figure it out right now." Cindy shook her head and rushed forward. A nurse walked out of the ward nearby, pushing an infusion bottle. Hearing the conversation between the mother and the daughter, she stopped. "Don''t worry, Amanda. As long as Cindy shows up, you don''t have to stop your son''s medicine. Maybe you don''t have to pay the medical fees in the future." Then the nurse snorted and left. Confused, Amanda stood still. Coincidentally, Nurse Ming came from the ward after checking the room. "Nurse Ming, what did she mean by that?" Amanda grabbed her arm. She used too much strength and the folder in Nurse Ming''s hand fell to the ground with a snap. Immediately, Nurse Ming''s face turned gloomy. "Don''t you know about Cindy? She cheated on Dr. Tao on their wedding night and hooked up with the son of President Qin. She was caught cheating on Mr. Qin in bed by Dr. Tao and hit Mr. Qin on the spot. It was said that Mr. Qin was seriously injured. Just wait. Your son will go home tomorrow. " Normally, the Cheng family often owed medical fees, and Nurse Ming had long disliked it. She was not polite at all. Her sarcastic words resounded through the corridor. Not only the nurses passing by looked sideways, but also many people stuck their heads out of the ward door and whispered after hearing it. Everyone looked at Amanda. Amanda was so anxious that she felt dizzy. She shook her body and quickly held the door frame of the ward. "Nurse Ming, are you kidding me?" How could Cindy do such a shameless thing as she said? Nurse Ming picked up the folder on the ground and curled her lips, gloating. "Ha ha, is it true? Go ask your good daughter." "Is it true? Doesn''t Cheng family''s daughter look like a cheap woman?" "Nurse Ming had said so. It must be true. How could she be so ungrateful? She was giving out wedding candies yesterday. s." "Look at her poor family. She often owes her medical fees. It''s normal for her to with to have a rich boyfriend. " Whispers filled the room. Although the voice was not loud, the words were prating. Holding against the door frame, Amanda couldn''t move a step. Although the Cheng family had gone bankrupt, it was still a clean family. Since childhood, Amanda had taught her children how to behave themselves. She hoped that they could stand upright. She didn''t expect to be gossiped around today. In the distance, Cindy had reached the end of the corridor, with her back straight. The only thing she could do now was to protest against these rumors in this way. Chapter 9 Who Dares To Die Chapter 9 Who Dares To Die In the office of the hospital''s CFO. "Louisa, please help me out. Ask Nurse Ming to do a favor. You know, my brother can''t stop taking medicine. I will pay the fee on time after I get my sry in a few days. " Cindy bowed and said something nice. The smile on her face disgusted even herself. The person who was called Louisa by Cindy was busy with her own business without raising her eyelids. "Louisa..." Cindy clenched her fists, but her face was still smiling. For the sake of Jason, she had to endure being looked down upon by others. Over the years, she had suffered greater grievances than this. "As I said, I can''t make a decision on this. The superior said that unless you make up for the medical fees, your brother''s medicine has to be stopped. Why don''t you go to see President Qin and have a try?" Louisa stopped what she was doing and said coldly from her Scarlet mouth, full of yfulness. "President Qin?" Cindy was stunned, but soon understood. ude Qin, you are such a mean man. Louisa''s words made Cindy more convinced of her guess. "Louisa, can you help me? Only you can help me with this. I swear, I will make up for it after I get my sry. I swear, really." Cindy still wanted to try. There were two clear knocks on the door. Standing at the door, with a stack of documents in her hands, Tina, the ountant, reminded in a low voice, "Director Ye, the financial quarter summary meeting will begin soon. Everyone is waiting for you in the meeting room." "I see. You go first. I''ll be there soon." After giving a simple order, Director Ye cleaned up the documents on the table, stood up and was about to leave. Cindy hurried forward, held her tightly and pleaded. "Louisa, please..." Director Ye shook Cindy''s hands off her arms and said coldly. "It''s useless to beg me for this matter. How dare we disobey the order of President Qin? If you have the ability to hook up with Mr. Qin, it will be no problem for you to pay for the medical expenses. I''m sorry. I''m too busy to entertain you. Enjoy yourself." Her red lips were tempting, but her words were extremely unpleasant to hear. "I..." Cindy wanted to defend herself, but she didn''t know what to say. ude was taught a lesson by Ethan. No matter what happened, it was indeed because of her. ude was the only child of the president of the hospital. Cindy didn''t know what else was waiting for her after such a thing happened. She didn''t dare to say anything, so she could only watch Director Ye leave. She couldn''t make it by Director Ye. So how should she deal with the medical fees? Cindy calcted all her property quickly in her mind. There were hundreds in the wallet and more than 1000 in the card. This amount of money was at most enough for Jason''s medicine for a day. It''s far from what she owned the hospital. She had nned to take some cash from the wedding to make up for her medical expenses. But, s She sighed. Frowning, Cindy couldn''t think of a way. "Cindy, shame on you! Get out!" A beautiful and graceful figure rushed into the room from the outside with roars. Seeing Cindy standing in the middle of the room, the woman pped her hard across the face. N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content. "Bitch! How dare you seduce other''s fiance? If I don''t teach you a lesson today, you think I''m easy to bully." She cursed. Suddenly, a burning pain came out. Cindy covered her face and burst into tears. She looked up. Cynthia Song, ude''s fiancee. Cynthia had an exquisite appearance and a well cut blue dress, outlining her curvaceous figure. However, at this moment, her face was full of anger, almost twisting her features. Cynthia was even angrier when she saw the tears on Cindy''s long eyshes. "Bitch, what are you pretending for? How dare you seduce ude?" "Cynthia, be reasonable." Cindy''s words irritated Cynthia even more. She pped her hands randomly. "Reason? Let me tell you, this is reason!" Jason. These two words shed through Cindy''s mind, and she had to bow down her straight back. Perhaps, when the Qin family gave vent to their anger, the problem of medical fees would be easily solved. Finally, Cindy chose to put up with it. Cynthia''s fists began to fall on Cindy. What happened in Director Ye''s office instantly became the headlines of the hospital, Soon, arge group of people gathered at the door of the office. "How dare she offend the young master of the Qin family? How dare she?" "Yes, everyone knows how powerful Miss Cynthia is." Cynthia red at the door. All the discussions stopped abruptly. Everyone in the No.2 People''s Hospital of J City knew how powerful Miss Cynthia was. There was a moment of silence in the room. Hearing that something happened in her office, Director Ye trotted all the way from the meeting room. She separated the crowd, walked in and persuaded carefully. "Miss Cynthia, forget it. It''s still in the hospital. It''s not good to get the news out." Ignoring Director Ye, Cynthia pped Cindy again. Cindy moved her body and dodged. The p didn''t hit her face, but hit Director Ye in the face. A crisp sound was heard. There was a red palm print on Director Ye''s face. "Whoosh!" the incident changed so fast that everyone eximed. "Director...Ye..." Cynthia was stunned to see that she pped Director Ye. Although she was only ude''s fiancee, she knew Director Ye''s position in the hospital. The CFO controlled the financial lifeline of the whole hospital. If she really wanted to marry into the Qin family, she would need to use Director Ye in the future. The God of wealth was hurt by mistake, which made Cynthia very upset. It was all Cindy''s fault. She turned around and red at Cindy with a vicious and cold light in her eyes. "Bitch, why are you dodging? This is what you deserve. How dare you hide from me after doing such a thing?" She gave a hard kick at Cindy who was squatting on the ground. In order to match this sexy dress, Cynthia wore a pair of high-heeled shoes today. It was thin and high, and its destructive power was unpredictable. If she kicked on Cindy''s head, her head would be bleeding. Seeing this, Director Ye hurried forward. This was her office. Blood sttering on the spot was not a good sign. In the end, she was still a step slower. Cynthia''s feet were only one finger away from Cindy''s head. "Stop!" A loud shout came from the office. Then, a tall figure shed in from outside and quickly pinched Cynthia''s ankle with his big hand. Cynthia''s ankle was pinched and she almost fell down. How dare someone in the hospital stop her? "Who? " Cynthia was burning with anger. She shook her head and red at the man. When she was about to shout abuse, she stopped when she saw the man. Steven Shen? Chapter 10 Too Tired Chapter 10 Too Tired Cynthia was right. The man was Steven Shen. Not only in J City, but also in the whole country, as long as in the medicine industry, the name of Steven Shen was like thunder. As the future hostess of No.2 People''s Hospital of J City, Cynthia must know something. Steven put down Cynthia''s feet, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his hands gently. "Miss, I don''t care your problem with this miss...dy. It was not good to beat people like this in public. If there is anything that can''t be solved between you two, I can call the police on behalf of you." Cindy squatted down, and Steven couldn''t see her face clearly. He didn''t know whether he called her right or not, so he quickly changed his address. This man had a handsome face, a strong figure, and slender and fair fingers. His voice was soft and warm, which made the nurses at the door open their mouths and stare at their dream lover, "No, no..." "Forget it, Miss Cynthia. You have taught Cindy a lesson anyway. Forget it today." Director Ye didn''t know Steven. However, seeing the strange expression on Cynthia''s face, she guessed that this person must not a simple person. So she juste out to mediate the dispute. "Well, for your sake, I''ll let this bitch go." Now that someone had given her a step, Cynthia hurried down the stairs. She didn''t dare to offend Steven. What''s more, Steven came to the hospital today. It was a big event. She had to inform the Qin family. Thinking of this, Cynthia moved out quickly. "Director Ye, I have something else to do. I have to go now. This bitch, and the things here, please deal with them." Before she finished speaking, she had already walked out of the door. However, when they arrived at the door, Cynthia still didn''t forget to turn around and re at Cindy. A murderous look shed in her eyes. Seeing that the brutal woman had left, Steven felt that it was useless to stay here. He nodded slightly and smiled. The warm sun in winter rose immediately. "Excuse me, please." The deep and maic voice sounded again in the office. People made a way for him at once. Under the gaze of the nurses, Steven quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor. "Cindy, get up. Miss Cynthia has left." She turned around and saw Cindy still holding her head and curling up in the corner of the desk. Director Ye curled her lips and said. Cindy let go of her hands and looked up. There were only two people in the room, she and Director Ye. "Director Ye, I''m sorry. It''s all my fault. I''ll get you some medicer." Cindy apologized repeatedly. The red palm print was so conspicuous on Director Ye''s fair face. Director Ye smiled bitterly. "Well, let''s go. I don''t dare to make a decision on your brother''s medical fee. You have seen what happened just now. I can''t afford to offend these powerful person." Cindy felt a little sorry for her being beaten because of her. And now she was asked to leave so she had no face to continue to entangle with Director Ye. At the door, there were still people looking inside. Cindy stood up, straightened her back, pressed her lips and walked out firmly. Outside the ss window of the corridor, the lights were already on. In a twinkling of an eye, it was dark. At the end of the corridor, a big ss window reflected the shadow of Cindy. Cindy was still wearing the wedding dress of yesterday. Last night, she was taken away by Ethan directly, so she had no time to change her clothes. Her hair was a little messy, and a long strand of hair fell at her temples. She stepped on the ground with bare feet. Cindy could not see her face clearly through the ss window. But she has already been clear of her statement. No wonder people passing by her couldn''t help but look at Cindy. She smiled bitterly. Without no improvement on Jason''s medical fee, Cindy didn''t dare to go back to the ward because she was afraid that she would meet her mother''s hopeful eyes. She wandered around in the hospital without any purpose. On thewn of the hospital, there was a bench under the streetmp. Cindy walked over and sat down dejectedly. Today, it seemed that all her bad luck in her life hade. She didn''t wear shoes, and the cold ground through the soles of her feet upied every nerve of her. Cindy couldn''t help shivering. She picked up her feet and put them on the chair. She bent her legs and pulled the hemline of the dress to cover the coldness. Cindy lowered her head on her knees and closed her eyes. She really wanted this bench to be a warm bed. She could sleep on it soundly. C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org. She was too tired. It was dark when Steven came out of the operating room. He stretched herself and pinched the back of his neck. It took him more than two hours to perform the heart bridge operation for the wife of the mayor of J City. The operation was a sess. If it weren''t for the medical rescue n of the poor mountain vige in J City, he wouldn''t havee all the way from the Li City by a few hours'' flight to do such a simple surgery to please the mayor. The president tried to persuade him to stay and wanted to have dinner with him, but was refused by Steven. Now for him, it should be a veryfortable thing to go back and take a hot shower and lie on the sofa to watch a movie. Steven sneaked out of the surgery building and walked briskly towards the parking lot. The night was as cold as ice. Peace, tranquility, and the situation in the ward were twopletely different worlds. In the cold night, under the streetmp, there was a person sitting on a bench. It was a woman. She buried her head without making any sound. Maybe her family was in hospital and she came out to breathe some fresh air. Steven had seen a lot of this kind of situation in the hospital, so he was not surprised at all. When he passed by, he saw the woman''s bare feet. Her skin was white and tender. Under the light of the streetmps, it emitted a slightly warm luster. However, there seemed to be a nail sized red mark on the back of her feet. Not far away, two men in ck were holding their breath and watching the scene behind a big tree. Seeing that Steven walked past Cindy without any hesitation, the two of them seemed to be relieved. "I''ll stay here. You go back and tell the boss." One of them ordered in a low voice. Exhausted, Cindy sat on the bench and slept soundly. She didn''t notice it at all. After a long time, a tall man in ck came to Cindy. This woman seemed to have gone through a lot of hardship. The man in ck slightly bent down, put his right hand behind Cindy''s neck, and stretched his left hand under her legs. Then he gently lifted Cindy horizontally. Perhaps something interesting happened in her sleep, Cindy smiled, her lips and cheeks quietly blooming the flower of poppy. The man in ck was stunned and left quickly with Cindy in his arms. Chapter 11 Hook Up With A Rich Man Chapter 11 Hook Up With A Rich Man The second morning. The sunlight nted into the room through the curtains. The stimtion of the light made Cindy open her sleepy eyes. Cindy frowned as she felt headache. Everything in the room was strange, but she seemed to have seen them somewhere. Ethan Huo. Suddenly, the name shed into her mind. Startled, Cindy sat up from the bed. She quietly lifted the quilt and took a look inside. Fortunately, she was not as naked as that day. A set of clothes and a pair of shoes were neatly folded on the bedside cupboard. Cindy jumped out of bed, putting on her clothes and shoes. The size was just right. When she came out of the room, she didn''t see anyone. Upstairs, Ethan stood in front of the window with a gloomy face and pursed lips, watching Cindy walking in the yard and looking around. He clenched his fists. "Mr. Ethan, do you just let Miss Cindy go like this?" With a wave of Ethan''s hand, Leon stopped talking. Last night, after listening to his subordinate reporting what had happened to Cindy in the hospital, Ethan immediately drove to the hospital. He took the sleeping Cindy back to his room, and slept alone in the guest room. What''s more, he specially ordered that no one was allowed toe out before Cindy left this morning. Leon was confused by Ethan''s decision, but he didn''t dare to say anything. After getting out of the gate, Cindy hailed a taxi and rushed to the hospital. Jason''s medicine was stopped. She had to find a way. It was obvious that she had fallen asleep on the chair in the hospitalst night. Howe he couldn''t remember anything here? "Head Nurse, I want to cancel the wedding leave ande back to work." This was the way Cindy had thought of on the way. The Head Nurse was counting the remaining drugs left on the night shiftst night. Hearing Cindy''s words, she didn''t raise her head and said lightly, "I have approved the marriage leave for you. Have you thought it over?" "Lena, the amount of this medicine is not right. Count them again." The Head Nurse shouted at the medicine room. "I aming." Lena Li, a short girl, quickly stood in front of the Head Nurse after a clear response. The Head Nurse took the record book and told Lena "Lena, these are prescribed medicines. Don''t make any mistake. I just saw a kind of quantity that seems a little strange. Check again and report it to meter." After saying that, the Head Nurse used a pen to draw a red line under the names of the drugs on the notebook. "Yes, Head Nurse. I''ll keep it in mind." Lena took the notebook, turned around and smiled at Cindy, "Sister Cindy, you are so silly that you don''t even want the wedding leave. If I were you, I would go to Europe to have fun and see the Eiffel Tower." Cindy smiled. She knew that Lena''s biggest wish was to go to Paris. However, the sharp sword of life had already eliminated those aesthetic and romantic fantasies. Cindy''s biggest wish now was to make more money. "What do you think, Head Nurse?" Seeing that the Head Nurse was not busy for the time being, Cindy quickly followed her. "You know my situation. I just want to make more money to cure my brother. Besides, Horald and I..." "Well, Cindy, I see. You cane back if you want to go to work. There are a lot of patients these days and we need help." The head nurse seemed to see through Cindy''s dilemma and interrupted her. The affair between her and Horald had already provoked much discussion. "Thank you, Head Nurse." After making several bows in session, Cindy left and went to change her clothes and get ready for work. Since she came to this hospital, the Head Nurse had been taking care of her secretly. It was the rush hour. Many people in the dressing room were busy preparing for work. Cindy took out the nurse''s uniform from her cab and put it on. She took off her coat, folded it, put it in the cab and locked it. Five years had passed, Ethan still remembered the size of her clothes and shoes. Cindy''s heart skipped a beat. What are you thinking about? Ethan and you are not the same person. Don''t be daydreaming. As soon as she thought of it, Cindy poured herself a basin of cold water. "Ah!" Thinking of something, Cindy stepped on the back of a nurse''s foot. The person screamed. "What are you doing? Are you blind?" Then there was a roar of abuse. Cindy apologized immediately, "I''m sorry." "I''m sorry. It''s not worth much. These are the new shoes I bought yesterday. What do you think I should Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. do with it now since you have stepped on it?" She stretched out her foot in front of Cindy. There was a dirty footprint on her new white shoes. "I''m sorry. I''ll deal with it." Cindy took out a piece of tissue from her pocket and tried to wipe off the stain. At this moment, a voice full of teleportation token rang out in the dressing room. "Why do you wipe? Cindy, Mr. Qin is in your pocket now. Be generous and buy a new pair of shoes for Shelly." "Yes, you are right. You are going to be Mrs. Qin. Why are you so stingy?" "Hahaha!" Instantly, the sound of mockery resounded through the dressing room. People''s sarcasm and sarcasm made Cindy feel cold and her eyes wet. It was said that Cindy hooked up with a rich man, but they didn''t know that her newly married husband, Horald, sold her wedding night to ude in exchange for the position of the chief of the psychological surgery department and a house. "Oh, I''m so sad. Look at her beautiful face. If I were a man, I would definitely be fascinated by her." "Hahaha..." Cindy''s sadness was still something they were discussing for fun. Tears were falling. Cindy didn''t want to be seen, so she ran away. "Cindy, put the liquid in bed twenty-three on the drip. The family has been here several times." Seeing Cindying over, the Head Nurse gave an order and began to sort out the documents in her hands. Cindy replied and walked towards the medicine room. "Head Nurse, I''d better go. She''s Mr. Qin''s woman now." Hearing the Head Nurse''s words, Shelly came over from the dressing room and twisted her buttocks to block the door of the medicine room. She curled her lips. The more she looked at the dirty shoes stepped on by Cindy, the more distressed she was. "Shelly, you work so hard today." Hearing the voice, the Head Nurse raised her head and saw the disdain and sarcasm on Shelly''s lips. "Okay, go ahead. Cindy, here is the blood sample of bed six just taken. Send it to theboratory." She saw the tears in Cindy''s eyes. However, everyone in the hospital knew what had happened this time. Even if she wanted to help Cindy, she didn''t dare to be too obvious in front of everyone. "Shelly, haven''t you gone too far?" "What too far? She is just a viin who wants to marry a rich man and be a Phoenix." Cindy lowered her head, picked up the blood sample and trotted as fast as she could. Behind her, there was a burst of mockery. Chapter 12 I Want A Divorce Chapter 12 I Want A Divorce Cindy walked heavily and felt dizzy. Cindy hurriedly held the wall with her hands. After several consecutive days and one more night shift, she couldn''t bear it any more. She had no choice but to earn medical fees. She had to work overtime to maintain the basic expenses of Jason in the hospital. She took a deep breath and walked into the ward with a rxed expression on her face. "Jason, how are you feeling today?" Jason was lying on the bed, pale and pitiful. "Sister, you You are here?" His low voice was totally different from his energetic look a few days ago. Jason struggled to sit up with his thin arms and tried several times, but failed. Seeing this, Cindy hurried to hold him. Jason raised his head and smiled. "Sister, I really I am really useless." Perhaps it was because he had exerted all his strength just now that a simple sentence made Jason gasp for breath. Cindy pretended to be rxed at the door and now she copsed in an instant. "I''m sorry, Jason. It''s all my fault. I''m useless. I can''t make money, so you don''t have medicine. I''m sorry. I''m so sorry." Tears welled up in Cindy''s eyes. She held Jason''s shoulder and apologized repeatedly. What Cindy felt in her hand was bones. Jason had been tortured like this by the disease. "I''m sorry..." Feeling guilty, Cindy choked with sobs. "Sister." The siblings looked at each other with tears in their eyes. Other patients in the ward sighed when they saw this scene. At this time, Amanda walked into the ward with a lunch box in her hand. "Jason,e here. You can eat steamed buns with soup." She smiled kindly and put the lunch box in front of Jason. She turned around and saw Cindy in front of the bed. Ayer of frost quickly covered Amanda''s face. "Cindy,e out." She said in a cold tone, allowing no one to refuse. Amanda''s mother had always called her nickname, but now she spoke in a cold voice, which made Cindy nervous. "Mom." Cindy followed her quickly. Several nurses passed by in the corridor and sneered at Cindy. The more Amanda thought about it, the colder her face became. "Cindy, when are you going to apologize to Horald? " It was at noon. Few people passed by on the openwn. Amanda stopped and turned around. She threw the cold words at Cindy. Cindy was stunned. Apologize? How could her mother ask her to apologize to Horald?. "Mom..." "Don''t call me that. I don''t care about the rtionship between you and Mr. Qin. On your wedding night, you betrayed Horald and stayed with others. Now, Horald is also fired from the hospital. It''s all your fault. You must apologize to Horald. The Cheng family is innocent. I''ll blush for you." With a livid face, Amanda interrupted. "Cindy, you must go. Only when Horald forgives you can we pay for Jason''s medical fees. If you don''t want to go, it''s okay. As long as you can pay the hospital to continue to apply medicine to Jason." What family innocence? What purity? In the end, it was all for money. Well, after all, she was not her biological daughter. Cindy sneered in her heart and gnawed at every cell in her body with resentment. "I won''t go. I... I didn''t... I was wrong." Cindy said word by word firmly. With a darkened face, Amanda grabbed Cindy''s arm. "Jason is the descendant of the Cheng family, and you are his sister. It''s your obligation to save him. You have to apologize and ask for Horald''s forgiveness, so that Jason can be cured." The rumor about Cindy spread everywhere in the hospital these days. Amanda didn''t dare to go out of the ward for fear of being pointed at behind. She had been holding back her anger for a long time. An ident made Cindy, who was still in her infancy, be a child without a mother. In fact, she and Jason were half siblings. Since she took Cindy back from the orphanage, the Cheng family had many bad luck. In her heart, Amanda had already marked Cindy as a jinx. If it weren''t for the fact that Cindy had tried her best to support her family and Jason''s medical fee after her father''s death, Cindy would have been driven out of the Cheng family. How could Cindy not know what was on Amanda''s mind? Cindy still insisted. "I will go to find Horald. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. But it''s not an apology. I want to divorce him." Amanda''s eyes widened. Cindy''s words were full of information, which made her a little confused. "What? Divorce?! Cindy, are you okay? It''s your fault to be with Mr. Qin. Now you have to give up all your property if you divorce. You can''t get a penny from Horald. You can''t divorce him." A momentter, Amanda was furious. Since the medical fees were gone, Jason had no choice but to wait for death. Someone passed by and heard the quarrel. He turned his head and looked over. Furious, Amanda tried to hold back her anger. "Cindy, I don''t need to tell you about Jason''s situation. If it goes on like this, you know better than me what the consequences will be. You learned the major of medicine." Cindy''s weakness was grasped by Amanda. "I will figure out a way to pay the medical fees. I''m Jason''s sister. I will never leave him alone. But... " Cindy stopped. "But what?" "It''s none of your business between me and Horald." Then she turned around. She raised her head and tried to hold back the tears that were rushing out. Cindy felt dizzy again and shook her body. Her back was straight, but her heart was bleeding. If her biological mother was still alive, would it be different? Horald, that bad man, could do such a disgusting thing. She must divorce him. Standing still and looking at Cindy''s cold back, Amanda was in a daze. It was the first time that she had seen Cindy like this. After leaving the hospital, Cindy called Horald out. She didn''t want to go back to her home in Garden of Fragrance. The ce Cindy met him was in the Center Garden. As soon as they met, Cindy spoke out her purpose. "Horald, I want to divorce you." Hearing this, Horald was surprised, but he didn''t show any signs of surprise on his face. Ethan''s men had already forced him to sign the divorce agreement. Isn''t that man Cindy''s boyfriend? She didn''t know such a big thing. "Okay, let''s talk about the conditions." Horald sat down on the bench beside him. The divorce agreement was signed, but there was no property division term on it. "I want one million." Cindy exposed her trump card without hesitation. The current market price of the wedding house was close to three million. There were also two people''s savings and their own wage cards in the past few years. What Cindy wanted was only half of what she deserved. She just wanted to get the money as soon as possible to make up for the medical fees of Jason and apply medicine for him. Jason was waiting for help, but she didn''t dare to waste any more time. Chapter 13 The Damned Woman Chapter 13 The Damned Woman "One million? !" "Yes, one million." "Cindy, are you crazy? I don''t have so much money. Now you have only two choices. Either we divorce and you give up all your property, or we just keep wasting our time like this. Anyway, I''m a jobless vagabond now. I''m not afraid." Cindy didn''t expect that Horald would be a scoundrel. C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org. Cindy didn''t expect that. "Horald, you can''t do this. My brother is waiting for the money to save him in the hospital. You know that." "Your brother is in the hospital. It''s none of my business. Anyway, whatever you say, I don''t have money now." Horald stood up and was about to leave. Cindy thought of the skinny body of Jason and her heart ached, "Horald, you can''t leave. After all, Jason has called you brother-inw for several years. Are you so cruel? Besides, what I want is my money, my money." Cindy grabbed Horald''s arm and shook it hard. Cindy''s face turned red because of anxiety. She had soft hair, delicate facial features, pink lips and ayer of mist in her eyes. All this was vivid because of her red face. No wonder ude couldn''t forget her. Cynthia was such a beauty, but he would rather exchange a wonderful night with Cindy on such generous terms. Horald smiled and came up with an idea. "Okay, I won''t leave. Let go of me first. How can we talk in this way?" Horald said slowly and sat down on the bench again. His tone softened, and Cindy had hope. She thought what she said just now touched Horald''s heart. The words "brother-inw" were called by Jason for a long time. "Have a seat." Horald patted the chair. Cindy frowned. She didn''t want to sit with this scumbag. After thinking for a while, she sat down. She chose to put up with it for the sake of Jason. A trace of coldness shed across Horald''s face. "Cindy, I apologize for what happened that night. I did that for our future. If I be the director of the cardio-surgery department, I will find an expert to treat Jason''s disease. Of course, I used a wrong way." Cindy was surprised. Horald seemed to have changed into another person. ncing sideways at Cindy''s expression, Horald couldn''t help but feelcent. "I really think so. Cindy, we have been together for years. How could I really do that? It''s just a trap." Horald looked around and lowered his voice. "I have drugged ude. How can he make it if he doesn''t have erection at the critical moment? ." An obscene smile instantly spread on Horald''s face. He evenughed out loud. This face was so strange. It was disgusting. Cindy tried hard to hold back the nausea in her stomach. Drugged? How could Cindy believe such ame excuse? ude was so obvious excited that night. Horald, do you think I''m stupid? Without saying a word, Cindy frowned and looked at Horald coldly. "Cindy." Horald whispered affectionately. At that moment, Cindy was in a trance. "Go to find ude and apologize to him. In that case, even if I can''t be the director, I can still keep the position of the attending doctor. Let''s live a good life in the future. I promise I will be good to you. Okay?" Horald reached out and held Cindy in his arms. Getting rid of his arms, Cindy pped heavily on Horald''s face. "Horald, you are so shameless. How could you say that? Don''t forget who helped youplete your university thesis. Don''t insult my intelligence. Do you believe your dirty excuses?" A string of usation came out in an instant. Cindy had nned to put up with it for the sake of Jason, but she didn''t expect Horald to be such a despicable person. Cindy couldn''t stand it anymore. "Cindy, you''ve made up your mind. If you do as I say, I''ll go to the hospital to pay for Jason''s medical treatment tomorrow. Otherwise, I won''t talk to you." The trick was exposed on the spot, and Horald was ashamed into anger. Then he left after throwing a few hard words. "Horald, give me back my sry card and credit card. That''s my money." Cindy shouted behind him. Her tone was full of tears. People passing by couldn''t help but look sideways. Horald ignored her and disappeared in the crowd without looking back. Tears welled up in Cindy''s eyes. What should I do? Her mind was in a mess. Cindy arrived at the hospital with heavy steps. It was time to go to work. At the gate of the hospital, Amanda stood there and looked around. "Cindy. How is it?" When she saw Cindy, she immediately ran up to her. When she saw Cindy''s tired face, she knew that she was doomed. "Cindy, haven''t you found Horald?" "Yes." Feeling dizzy, Cindy didn''t want to talk and went straight to her department. But Amanda was not reconciled. She walked around and stopped in the way. "What''s the result? Did Horald forgive you? Where is the money?" After throwing away a series of questions, Amanda stared at Cindy''s face. At this moment, Cindy''s face was as pale as a piece of paper. "Mom, I have divorced with Horald. I haven''t got the money." "What?. Cindy, didn''t I ask you to apologize? Have you ever considered about Jason? How can you be so selfish?" Amanda shouted. Cindy smiled bitterly. Selfish? Well, for this family, she endured from now on. But now, he had made such a contribution. "That''s it. Mom, I''m going to work." "Okay, okay. It was good to divorce. Didn''t you hook up with a rich man? Go find him and ask him to save your brother with money." For her son''s sake, Amanda began to speak without thinking. Cindy clenched her fists and forced herself to calm down. "Mom, those are rumors. How can you believe them?" "Don''t call me mom. I''m not your mom. Your mom has already died. From now on, you have nothing to do with me. I don''t care how many rich people you hook up with." Cindy''s forbearance didn''t win her mother''s tenderness. Her words were getting worse and worse. People wereing and going at the gate of the hospital. The quarrel between the mother and daughter attracted everyone''s attention. Lowering her head, Cindy didn''t say anything, allowing her mother to shout. The words just now were like a sharp de, piercing into her soft ground. Yes, she was just a child without a mother. Seeing this, the family of the patient in the same ward with Jason felt sorry for Cindy and persuaded Amanda to leave. The familiar ck Bentley stopped at the roadside. Wearing a ck suit, Ethan looked sullen as he watched what happened not far away. He frowned. Amanda''s words also flew into the car. Was that woman a fool? She didn''t know how to fight back. Damn. Finally, with a livid face, Ethan got out of the car. Chapter 14 Find The Truth For Me Chapter 14 Find The Truth For Me Cindy stood still and her heart was crumpled into pieces. That sentence stabbed her heart like a sharp sword. "Mom, why didn''t you take me with you and leave me alone to suffer so much?" Clenching her fists tightly, Cindy looked up at the sky and sighed, tears streaming down her face. The passers-by at the gate of the hospital couldn''t help but look at her with sympathy. Why did God do this to me? Amanda didn''t know if it was because she had been working overtime or because her mother''s words made her too sad. Cindy was so dizzy that she almost couldn''t raise her head. Then she felt dizzy and fell straight to the ground. "Cindy." A deep and maic voice of the man rang in her ears. Vaguely, Cindy heard someone calling her. The pleasant voice was so familiar. The sky and earth were spinning and about to fall to the ground. Cindy couldn''t control herself and could only watch the grey ground getting closer and closer to her. Just then. A pair of big hands caught her. The person''s fingers were a little cold, but Cindy could feel the heartbeat from his chest, which made her feel so safe and warm. This feeling was a little familiar. Ethan, is that you? Tears streamed down Cindy''s face. She gradually lost her consciousness and soon fell into endless darkness. Until "She is just a jinx. She will only bring bad luck. Send her away." "Here is five million. As long as you leave Ethan, I promise that your Cheng family will live a peaceful life. I heard that you have a brother, right? If anything happens, don''t me me for being rude to him." "Cindy, why? Give me a reason." "No, don''t leave me, Cindy." "Cindy, how could my brother like you? If you hadn''t helped them so much and made some money, I would have dumped you already. Now it''s good. We can be together openly." Cindy was like a lonely boat, galloping in the dark sea. She couldn''t even breathe under the pressure of storms. She was so dizzy that many ferocious faces shed by one by one. Was she dead? Otherwise, why did she even see Old Mrs. Cheng who had been dead for many years? "Cindy, you finally wake up." Cindy recognized the voice of the Head Nurse. She tried to open her eyes, but the light seemed to be a little dazzling, and she immediately closed them. A pair of warm hands covered Cindy''s forehead. "Cindy, Cindy." Standing by the window, Ethan pressed his thin lips tightly and frowned. When he heard the Head Nurse''s shout, his cold eyes instantly turned around, full of cold stars. A momentter, Cindy opened her eyes again. Cindy frowned at her headache. She remembered that she was talking about the medical fees with her mother at the gate of the hospital just now. But the room was clean and bright, with many medical devices ced, and the smell of disinfectant slowly filled her nostrils. This was the emergency room of the Department of Neurosurgery, where she worked every day. Why "Head Nurse, why am I lying here?" Cindy was startled by her hoarse voice. "It''s good that you woke up. Cindy, have a good rest." Hearing the Head Nurse''s words, Cindy closed her eyes obediently and fell asleep again. "Sir, I thank you on behalf of Cindy. She must have been too tired these days that she fainted. Now it seemed that everything was fine. Don''t worry. I will take good care of her." The Head Nurse walked to Ethan with a smile. "HMM." Ethan replied in a low voice. Without saying anything else, he took a look at Cindy, but his face was still gloomy. He took a step but towards the door. He said in a deep voice, "let''s go." Leon followed him immediately. "Head Nurse, please take care of Miss Cindy." When they arrived at the door, Leon turned around and said to the Head Nurse with a smile. "Mind your own business." A cold voice came from Ethan. Leon shut up immediately. Seeing Ethan approaching, the nurses at the door stepped aside automatically. This man was too powerful. He was 1.85 meter tall and handsome. He was tall and strong, with deep between his eyebrows and eyes, a tall nose, and a sexy thin lips. He exuded a strong masculine aura. All the nurses were stunned by the scene that Cindy was held tightly by such an excellent man. They followed her all the way to the Department of cerebral surgery. Without saying a word, Ethan walked over from the middle with a cold face. As Ethan walked past, the crowd gathered together behind him again. It was these people who embarrassed Cindy. One day, I will make you regret. Ethan snorted in his heart and walked away. "Mr. Ethan, Miss Cindy doesn''t seem to live well in the past five years." After leaving the gate of the hospital, Leon quickly caught up with Ethan. Ethan stopped. He could see clearly how much Mr. Ethan missed Cindy in the past five years. Leon didn''t want Ethan to regret, so he told him everything he had known earlier. After breaking up with Ethan, Cheng family went bankrupt. Cindy''s fathermitted suicide, and Cindy was forced to drop out of school. She carried all the things of Cheng family on her thin shoulders alone, including the huge medical expenses of Jason. Hearing Leon''s words, Ethan frowned more tightly. "But we haven''t found out the reason yet." Finally, Leon lowered his head and took a stealthy nce at Ethan. At this moment, Ethan''s face was cold and fierce. "You have two days to find out the truth. If you can''t find it out, you will know the consequence." Ethan said in a cold tone, allowing no one to refuse. Ethan''s intuition told him that the matter of the Cheng family was not that simple. With his long legs stretched out, Ethan strode forward with a cold face. The woman lying in the emergency room made his heart ache. N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content. At the door of the emergency room, a group of nurses were still staring at the end of the corridor. "Wow, this man is so handsome. I''m satisfied that he can look at me, let alone hold me in his arms. I really envy Cindy." Lena said first with arge stack of folders in her arms. Hearing that, Shelly curled her lips. "Lena, are you daydreaming? Look at your figure and appearance. People will feel sick at the sight of you." "Shelly, you..." Being teased, Lena was angry and anxious, tears rolling in her eyes. "Lena, did you learn this from Cindy? But you haven''t learned the essence yet. Look at how awesome Cindy''s move is. She is held by men one after another. Ha ha... " The mocking voice echoed in the corridor of the ward. "You. I ." Lena couldn''t deal with the taunt of Shelly. "What are you doing, Shelly? This is the ward." The Head Nurse came out and closed the door of the emergency room. She lightly scolded Shelly. Chapter 15 Im Not Your Mother Chapter 15 I''m Not Your Mother At dawn, Cindy got up. After a quick wash, she rushed out of the door. She quickened her pace to the subway station. She fainted in the hospital. The Head Nurse was afraid that something bad would happen to her again, so she asked her to go home and rest for a few days. However, Cindy couldn''t have a good rest due to the expenses of her family and the medical expenses of Jason. She checked the time just now, and it was still a few minutes before the departure. If she missed this taxi, she would bete for the hospital next time. ording to the rules of the Department, the bonus would be deducted if one waste. Although there was not much money, it was a big sum for Cindy, who was going to stingy about every penny. At least, she could buy some delicious food to satisfy Jason''s craving for food. Jason. Thinking of this name, Cindy suddenly became motivated. When she trotted all the way to the hospital, Cindy found that the breakfast she bought on the roadside had been crowded into no shape in the subway. Her shirt was crumpled. She smiled bitterly. There were too many people in the rush hour, and Cindy didn''t want to waste money on taxi. After work today, she had to talk to Horald about the divorce. She had to settle it as soon as possible. When she got the money, Jason couldn''t wait any longer. He had been relying on only Chinese medicine these days, and his face seemed to be getting worse and worse. As soon as Cindy entered the Department, she saw Shelly walking towards the dressing room with several people. Cindy stopped. After what happenedst time, Cindy didn''t want to have a direct conflict with them. "Sister Cindy, do you have this for breakfast?" A cheerful and innocent voice came from behind Cindy. She smiled. "Lena are you on duty today?" Cindy turned around and smiled at her. And Lena smiled back at her. "I was on night dutyst night. I will go home after I finish my work. I''m so tired." Lena rubbed her temples. "Sister Cindy, I am just saying. You can''t save money like this. Health is the most important thing." Lena''s serious look made Cindy burst intoughter. Unexpectedly, Cindy choked on the bread. "Lena, you are so cute." "Lena is right. You should take good care of yourself. What about your brother if you get sick?" The Head Nurse came over from the dressing room and couldn''t help interrupting. She turned to Lena and smiled, "go back and have a rest. You have stayed up all night. I heard that two patients were transferred from the emergency departmentst night. That''s enough." "You are so kind, Head Nurse." Lena pounced on the Head Nurse, put her arm around her shoulder and wanted to kiss her. "Go ahead." The Head Nurse stepped back. Standing aside, Cindy couldn''t help smiling. These days, she could only be so rxed in front of them. "Ding!" The elevator opened. Then someone roared, "Cindy, you bitch! Get out!" The smile on Cindy''s face froze. Mindy Wu. Cindy''s mother-inw came out of the elevator and didn''t see Cindy leaning against the table. She raised her throat and shouted. "Mom." Cindy walked over and whispered. Mindy didn''t appreciate her kindness. She curled her lips and squinted at Cindy. "Ha ha, I don''t deserve this title. We can''t afford a daughter-inw like you." "Mom, can we go out and have a talk? This is the ward. It''s not good to affect everyone." Seeing that many people were looking at them, Cindy was a little anxious. Rumors about her clinging to the power were still flying in the air. If Mindy made a fuss, her days in the Department in the future would be... But Mindy came here today to teach Cindy a lesson. "Everyone,e and have a look at her. She is such a seductive woman. In order to hook up with the rich, she even cuckolded her husband on their wedding night. How could such a woman deserve the title of "angel in white"?. Bah!" She roared, regardless of Cindy''s dignity. Horald was fired from the hospital, and Joyce lost her child. Mindy was furious. She was just amon woman, and the most important thing for her was children. It was all Cindy''s fault. Seeing that more and more people gathered, Mindy became morecent. If that was the reason why she came here today. "This woman gave you injection and medicine every day. I feel dirty at the thought of it. Horald graduated from the medical school and was a top student. The hospital fired him indiscriminately. This woman should be fired." Mindy was uneducated. If she continued, the following words would be harsh. Cindy stepped forward and pulled her arm. "Mom." "Don''t call me that. You have divorced my son. I''m not your mother." Mindy shook off Cindy''s hand. The bread in Cindy''s hand fell to the ground. When Shelly and the others came out of the dressing room, they heard the noise. They approached, raised their eyebrows and sneered. "Hey, what''s going on, Cindy?" "What''s going on? It''s just that she cheated on her husband and her mother-inw came to reason with her. Hee hee." A mockingughter sounded. Rumors hurt people. Cindy''s heart sad and she kept clenching her fists and didn''t notice that her nails were embedded in her flesh. Standing there, she trembled slightly. "No, I didn''t." Tears gushed out of Cindy''s scarlet eyes. The Head Nurse didn''t want the situation to be out of control. She walked forward, pulled a long face and said coldly, "this is the hospital, not the ce where you make trouble. Please go out." "Why? If you don''t fire this woman today, I won''t leave. Anyway, my son has lost his job and my grandson. She is a murderer." Pointing at Cindy''s nose, Mindy cursed. Then she ran to the nurse station and sat down. Well, that was her purpose. Cindy sneered. Horald, you are so despicable. "Get out." "I won''t leave." The Head Nurse said sternly. Mindy didn''t buy it. Instead, she raised her head and looked arrogant. Everyone looked at this scene. "Mom." A loud shout broke the ice. Horald hurried over. Seeing Horald show up, Mindy was cheered up. "Horald, youe just in time. Tell everyone how aggrieved you are. Tell them what this woman did to you today. Why can she still stay here when you are fired from the hospital?" "Well, Horald, if you want to be a man, you need to tell everything out today." Cindy said in a trembling voice. "Of course, and the grandson." Then she turned to Mindy. Horald''s face changed. "Mom, let''s go home. This is hospital. It''s not good for you to stay here." Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. "Not good? How is this not good?" Mindy was not satisfied with Horald''s cowardice and retorted. Because of anger, her face was full of ferocity. It looked a little scary. The man''s words were still in Horald''s ears, and he dared not disobey. After thinking for a while, Horald made up an excuse. "Mom, something happened to Joyce." "What happened to her?" Sure enough, Mindy rushed out of the nursing station nervously. Horald got hold on Mindy and dragged her out of the room. At the corner of the stairs, a man curled his lips. Chapter 16 I Dont Know You Chapter 16 I Don''t Know You "Get separated." Seeing that the mother and son went away, the Head Nurse waved her hand and asked everyone to leave. "Let''s go to work. There''s no fun." Shelly said in a voice dripping with sarcasm. She picked up the tray in her hand, swayed and led the way to the ward. The rest nced at Cindy and followed her, doing their own work. It was time for the doctors to make the rounds of the wards. The nurses had to hurry up and clean up the ward. It was clean, tidy and well disciplined. In addition to leading the medical level, No.2 People''s Hospital of J City was the best hospital in the city. Cindy stood still in a daze. Tears fell down. She couldn''t figure out why the annoying things always surrounded her. Seeing this, Lena walked over and pulled her arm, "Sister Cindy." "It doesn''t matter. Lena, you can go home now." Cindy wiped her tears quietly, raised her head and smiled at Lena. However, anyone could tell that she was upset from her heavy nasal voice. "It seems that it''s true. I can''t believe that Cindy is that kind of person." "Humph! Do you really think she is pure and lofty? Well, she pretended to be pure. Maybe she is coquettish behind our back." "Really?" Cindy just walked to the door of the medicine room and heard the mocking voice from inside. Her eyes were wet with tears again. "Stop it." When a nurse turned around and saw Cindy standing at the door, she immediately stopped the one talking. Shelly turned his head and sneered. She put the medicine on the shopping cart one by one and then pushed them away. Regardless of Cindy''s standing at the door, Shelly pushed the cart out hard. The cart hit Cindy hard. Cindy let out a cry of pain, "ah!" You deserves it. ude was the person she wanted to cling to, but Cynthia was a ruthless character. She was no match for Cynthia, so she had to give up. Unexpectedly, Cindy, who was unknown, got hands on him. Without stopping, Shelly snorted and walked away. "Cindy, are you okay?" Seeing Cindy''s face crumpled in pain, the people who came out behind her felt a little sorry. She shook her head and held back her anger. She looked down and saw a big red mark on her fair skinned calf. Tears fell on Cindy''s face, making her feel cold. "Cindy." She turned around and smiled. "It''s okay. Head Nurse." Then Cindy limped away. All of this has been seen clearly by the man just now. Seeing that the whole department of Cardiology had returned to peace, he quietly left. After a whole day''s work, Cindy thought of her decision in the morning and handed over her work in a hurry. Yes, she was going to talk about the divorce with Horald. Walking out of the hospital, Cindy turned back again. She hadn''t seen Jason for a whole day. Somehow, she felt a little flustered. "Jason..." Pushing the door open, Cindy didn''t see Jason on the bed. She stopped crying. Jason''s bed was terribly clean and there was no sign of anyone lying on it. Did? As a nurse, she was used to this kind of situation in the hospital. Frightened, Cindy ran out of the room like a madman and shouted, "Dr. Bai, Dr. Bai" Cindy''s trembling voice resounded through the whole ward. "What''s wrong?" Dr. Bai was checking on the patient when he heard the terrible cry of Cindy. He walked out of the ward in a hurry. "Dr. Bai, my brother, my brother..." Afraid of hearing that terrible fact, Cindy didn''t dare to ask again. Dr. Bai pursed his lips and smiled. "What? Are you afraid of your brother? Don''t worry. Jason is fine. I just told him to go home and have a rest." He then turned around and lowered his voice. "I have introduced the traditional Chinese medicine doctor to Jason. Now there are already rumors in the Department, so I have to avoid suspicion. You know, my whole family lives on my own sry. If the board of directors knows this, I''m afraid I can''t keep my job. Don''t worry. With the support of traditional Chinese medicine, Jason can still hold on for a period of time." "Dr. Bai, I''m sorry to trouble you." Cindy bowed again and again. There were tears in the corner of her eyes, but she was happy in her heart. As long as Jason was fine, everything would be fine. "But I have checked on him before he left today. He is not in a good condition either. You''d better raise the medical fees as soon as possible and let Jason stay in hospital for treatment." Dr. Bai''s words were like a basin of cold water, and the joy was instantly extinguished. "Thank you, Dr. Bai. I''ll figure it out right now." Cindy ran away just after she finished her words. It was gettingte. In the evening, the street lights on both sides of the street were lit up. Cindy quickened her pace. She had searched every ce Horald used to go, but he was nowhere to be found. Finally, for the sake of Jason, Cindy decided to try her luck. Moon Bar was the bar that Horald had taken her there once. The barmaids were dressed like bunnies. They had a pair of long rabbit ears on their heads and a big tail on their buttocks. They always teased with the guests. Those men were itching to have sex with them that they dared to order no matter how much wine. Cindy was disgusted and ran out with Horald as soon as she entered. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Would Horald go there now? At the gate of Moon Bar Colorful neon lights were shing, giving people a sense of intoxication. Cindy stood at the door, unable to move. It was hard to see the girls inside. Cindy was still hesitated to go inside. "Miss, why don''t youe in since you have already walked to the door?" The strong smell of alcohol sprayed on [ ]''s face. Cindy turned her head and saw a strong man standing next to her. He stretched out his head, with the smell of alcohol in his mouth. The man was wearing a tight ck vest, and his exposed skin was covered with dense tattoos. There were two minions standing next to him. They seemed to be his subordinates. Cindy stepped back. "Sir, I don''t know you. Please go away." "We would be familiar with each other soon enough. As long as you let me kiss you a few times, I''m sure Well, I''m sure you''ll know me." The smell of alcohol came out of his throat. Frowning, Cindy covered her nose and stepped back. Although the smell of alcohol was strong, what Cindy couldn''t stand was his hideous breath. Her dodge aroused the man''s sexual desire. "Hey, what are you hiding from? Let''s go. I''ll buy you a drink." The man rushed over and held Cindy in his arms, keeping his mouth close to her face. The two minions also came up with obscene smiles on their faces. "It''s your fortune that our brother likes you. Beauty, just ept it. Hahaha... " "Let me go." Cindy tried to get rid of him, but he was too strong to move at all. "Little beauty, don''t move. The more you move, the more excited I will be." The man tightened his arm. Unable to break free, a trace of despair shed across Cindy''s face. Chapter 17 Your Man Chapter 17 Your Man "Stop!" A loud shout was heard, cold and sharp. The man was dressed in a ck suit, and his tall figure was wrapped in it. Under the neon light, his cold features were less tough and softer than usual. He frowned and pursed her lips. And his whole body was shrouded in cold mist. It was Ethan Huo. Cindy turned around and felt safe. "Help me, Ethan." Cindy thought to herself. "Who? Get out of here. How dare you spoil my good n. Fuck off!" The tattooed man tried to open his eyes wide and only saw a tall figure. He shouted impatiently and dragged Cindy into the bar. "Mr. Ethan, do you need me ?" Leon stepped forward and asked for his opinion. Ethan waved his hand. "I haven''t exercised for a long time anyway. Let''s have a try today." With a hint of mockery on his face, Leon stepped aside. "I said, let her go." Ethan red at the tattoo man. His tone was cold, and every word seemed to be as cold as ice. The two minions slowly approached. "Are you tired of living? How dare you yell without asking who my brother is? My brother asked you to get out of here. Just stay away from him. Otherwise..." Before he finished his words, the two of them screamed at the same time. Ethan did it without hesitation, turning left and right, and pinched the hands of the two on their backs. He had spent a few years in the army these years. It only needed one trump card to capture and defeat the enemy. The whole action was neat and efficient. In the blink of an eye, only the two people could be heard shouting. The tattooed man was furious when he saw his subordinate suffer losses. He threw Cindy to the side. "Fuck! How dare you touch my man? ." With the smell of alcohol, the tattoo man pounced on Ethan. Ethan curled his lips and shook off the two men. The tattoo man pounced on Ethan. Before he could get close to Ethan, he was hit on the back by him. "Brother!" The two minions shouted and were about to step forward. They thought for a while and stopped. They were no match for Ethan. Cindy was stunned by what she saw. When did Ethan be so agile? "Let''s go." The surprise in her eyes was so obvious, and Ethan certainly knew what Cindy was thinking. He walked over, grabbed her hand and growled coldly. "Ethan." Cindy trembled slightly. Apparently, she was frightened. Without giving her a chance to continue, Ethan held Cindy''s hand tightly and pulled her away. "Stop!" The tattoo man sat on the ground, drunk, squinting and roaring. With a cold face, Ethan waved his hand. Dozens of men in ck quickly shed out of the ck shadow like ghosts. They were about the same height and height, with ck shirts, ck trousers and leather shoes shining under the light. It was obvious that they were well-trained and not ordinary bodyguards. "Ethan, put me down." On the back seat, Cindy, who huddled up, lowered her head and stared at her hand held tightly by Ethan. This time, I won''t let you go. Thinking to himself, Ethan looked at the neon lights outside the car, which turned into a long tail in the flying. His palms were warm, but the fingers were a little cold. "Ethan." Cold sweat dripped from Cindy''s palms. She looked at Ethan carefully. His thin lips were tightly closed, and the coldness was obvious on Ethan''s face. There''s nothing you can tell from his face expression. "Ethan, did you hear me? I want to get off the car." Cindy didn''t dare to use force likest time. After all, it was Ethan who saved her just now. Besides, Cindy couldn''t see through Ethan''s cold face. Looking from the side, Ethan''s features were more three-dimensional in the night, and his figure wrapped in the ck suit was even stronger, but he was still cold, with a strange mystery at the corners of his mouth. They hadn''t seen each other for five years, and Ethan seemed to have changed a lot. Yes, a little more resolute. This made him look more manly. What had Ethan experienced in the past five years? "Have you seen enough?" Ethan''s cold voice came from above Cindy''s head. "I, Ethan, I want to get off the car. I''m going to Moon Bar to find someone." Cindy said softly. In order to hide the blush on her face, Cindy turned her head to the outside of the car. "Find someone? I can''t think of anyone there that you should look for." A sneer appeared on Ethan''s face. The scene in the bar shed through Cindy''s mind at once. What did Ethan think of her?. Anger rose to the top of her head. As soon as she was about to say something, she thought of the encirclement that Ethan had just saved for her, so Cindy suppressed it again. "I I''m looking for Horald." Cindy said cautiously. She really didn''t want to mention that name. Frowning, Ethan suddenly turned his head, stared at Cindy and sneered. "Looking for him? Come to this kind of ce? It seems that you really care about your husband." "What''s wrong? At least he is still my nominal husband now." Miss Cindy, you have nothing to do with Horald. Mr. Ethan asked him to sign the divorce agreement. And you don''t have to show up. The divorce certificate has been handled." Hearing Cindy''s words, Leon, who was driving ahead, chuckled and turned to her. "Mind your own business." Ethan said coldly. Leon immediately stopped talking and focused on driving. "What?! Are you telling the truth?" Cindy eximed. "Of course it''s true. I''ve already done it. The divorce certificate is in Mr. Ethan''s hands." Leon couldn''t help but add something. However, when he raised her head, he saw Ethan''s cold eyes from the rearview mirror. He didn''t dare to say anything. He shut up and looked ahead carefully. Ethan had handled such a big matter. Besides, he didn''t ask for her opinion at all. "Ethan." "You don''t have to thank me. Just take me as a phnthropist." Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Before Cindy could finish her words, Ethan interrupted her with a smile. "Thank? Why should I thank you? How can you do this? It''s my own business. It has nothing to do with you. How can you do this for me? Who gave you the right? Why do you rich people like to make decisions for others?" The extreme anger made Cindy blush. Ethan didn''t expect Cindy to react like this. "What? You mean you don''t want a divorce yet?" "I chose the man myself. It''s my business whether I divorce him or not." She had nned to negotiate with Horald about the divorce. Cindy was sure that if something happened to Tao family, Mindy would definitely urge Horald to divorce her as soon as possible. But now, Ethan divorced them secretly. Cindy was really angry. Ethan turned his head and said in a lonely voice. "Your man? !" Chapter 18 Enemies Are Destined To Meet Chapter 18 Enemies Are Destined To Meet "Yes, my man. What''s wrong?" Cindy raised her head and directed up to him. As soon as she finished his words, Ethan''s face darkened. Was it too much for her to say that? ncing at Ethan, Cindy felt a little regretful. "Cindy, are you sure?" His low and hoarse voice sounded a little strange in the car. "Yes, I''m sure." Cindy was so angry that she spoke without thinking. The problem of medical fees made the regret in Cindy''s heart disappear in an instant. Ethan straightened up and said coldly with a livid face, "stop the car." "Creak!" The car stopped and Leon looked back from the rearview mirror. There was no sound in the quiet car, filled with the danger before the storm. "Get off the car." A cold voice came out from Ethan''s throat, as if it came from an ice cer made of ice. Cindy was stunned. "Get off the car!" He raised his voice. Then, Ethan stretched out his hand over Cindy''s body. The door opened. Not knowing what had happened, Cindy stared nkly at Ethan. "Didn''t you say that you wanted to get out of the car? I''ll help you. Now you can go to find your "man" His cold voice sounded a little angry. Why not? Raising her head, Cindy stretched out her foot and identally hung the heel of her shoe on the door. She stumbled and fell to the ground. Her shin hurt. The door mmed shut. Through the car door, Cindy still heard the deste order of Ethan in the car. "Drive." Then, with a loud bang, the ck Bentley drove away. Ethan Huo. Ethan Huo. Sitting on the ground, Cindy clenched her fists and stared at the car driving away. Her eyes were quickly filled with tears and she cursed the name in her heart. She couldn''t feel the pain on her leg. What about the medical fees? Ethan, you are such a self-righteous man. Thinking of this, Cindy couldn''t help cursing Ethan. "Miss, do you need any help?" A taxi stopped in front of Cindy. "Oh, no, thanks." Cindy didn''t want others to see her embarrassment, so she tried to get up from the ground. Cindy felt a sharp pain in her shin. She lowered her head and saw a long wound. She must have been cut by somewhere pony of the car door. The taxi driver also saw the wound on Cindy''s leg. "Miss, shall I drive you home?" "No, thanks. You can leave now. Thank you." Home? Cindy smiled bitterly in her heart. Her house in Garden of Fragrance was lived by them, and Cindy didn''t want to go back to see Mindy''s annoying face. There seemed to be no ce for her to stay in Cheng family. Dr. Bai said that Jason hade back. She was afraid to see his hopeful eyes because she was depressed. It was getting dark. Cindy sat on a bench on the roadside and looked at the city with neon lights. She couldn''t find her home. After a long time, a car slid over silently. "Miss Cindy." The driver poked his head out and greeted Cindy. Cindy recognized that it was Ethan''s subordinate. She turned her head aside. "Miss Cindy, please. Mr. Mr. Ethan has helped you apply for a single apartment in the hospital." Leon got out of the car and handed a key to Cindy. No. 2006 There was a number sticker on the key. Cindy recognized that it was the key to the hospital''s single apartment. She had seen it in Shelly''s hand "No, thanks." Without reaching out her hand, Cindy stood up and left. "Ah!" after sitting for a long time, Cindy couldn''t help but cry out of pain as soon as she stood up. "Miss Cindy, I''ll put the key here for you. It''s up to you whether you want to live or not. I have to obey Mr. Ethan''s orders." Leon threw the key on the chair, turned around and drove away. Humph! Like master, like servant. Cindy snorted in her heart, frowned and turned away. There was a wound on her leg, and it was inevitable to be affected when she walked. Cindy grinned, but her back was straight. She didn''t want Ethan to see her embarrassment. Cindy walked slower and slower. Finally, she stopped. Why not move in? It was said that the single apartment in the hospital was very popr. It was well equipped with everything. To be honest, it was morefortable than living in her own house. Anyway, she had nowhere to go now, so she decided to spend the night there and make up her mind tomorrow. What''s more, there was such arge amount of medical fees ced there. Cindy was reluctant to give up that money. Besides, even if Cindy took out all her bags, she couldn''t afford the hotel fee. Thinking of this, Cindy shook her head, turned around, picked up the key and left. Soon, Cindy arrived at the single apartment of No.2 People''s Hospital of J City. She took out the key and swiped the door card. The door opened automatically. Ethan, you finally did something reliable. "Ding!" The elevator stopped at floor twenty. Cindy walked out of the elevator and looked up. It was said that the single apartment was proposed by the chairman of the hospital. In order to solve the problem of those students who just graduated from medical school and had no ce to live. In order to show the kindness and moral of the hospital, this apartment cost a lot of money. Any single hospital employee was qualified to apply for it. Of course, not everyone could live here. The apartment was popr, and the quota was very limited. Only outstanding employees could get the key. The corridor was clean and spacious, and the marble floor was shining, which looked even more high- end than the house in "Garden of Fragrance" bought by Cindy. No wonder so many people tried their best to get this. How could Ethan be so capable? Cindy muttered to herself and finally found her room. "2006, wee to check in. I''m your neighbor, Shelly Zhang. Hope we get well on with each other." A N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content. cheerful voice sounded. Cindy, who was opening the door with the key, turned around. Shelly? What a small world. The woman, who was ipatible with her like fire and water, stood in the corridor and looked at her with a smile. Seeing it was Cindy, Shelly''s face froze. "Cindy, you are really something. You even got the key to single apartment which is hard to do. You pretend really well at usual. How could it be possible without the help of ude? Humph!" With a snort of contempt, Shelly Zhang raised her head in an instant. Room 2006 was the best room on this floor, and it was the only single room. She thought she could get close to the new neighbor, but it turned out to be the annoying Cindy. "No, I didn''t." Cindy said in a low voice, but with certainty. "Ha ha, no? It was not easy to get into a single apartment. You are just an intern nurse. If you don''t have an affair with ude, how can you live in? If it weren''t for me..." Feeling that she had made a slip of the tongue, Shelly stopped talking immediately. Her uncle was the deputy director of the hospital''s internal affairs department. It took him a lot of effort to get the apartment for her. If others knew this, they would use her uncle of favoritism. "I said I didn''t." After saying that coldly, Cindy walked into the room. The door mmed shut behind her. Chapter 19 Can You Afford It Chapter 19 Can You Afford It A few rays of sunshine came in through the gap of the thick curtain. Cindy woke up. The sound sleep of the night made her full of spirit. Those annoying things seemed to be far away. She got up and opened the curtain. The warm light poured in. The room was really well equipped. And it seemed that the furniture had a good taste. Although the kitchen was not big, it had everything in it, and there were milk and bread in the fridge. Now she thought the chairman was a good man. She made up her mind to work hard in the future. It was the first time for Cindy to meet such a boss who was willing to work for him. Sitting in front of the window, Cindy was about to enjoy her breakfast. "Ah!" With a scream, Cindy jumped up. The clock showed that she waste for work. Grabbing the milk and bread, Cindy rushed out. "Bang!" "Ah!" As soon as she ran to the outpatient building, Cindy bumped into a person. The two people screamed at the same time. "What are you hurrying for?" Shelly shouted. There was a footprint on her high-heeled shoes, and her hair was messy. The most important thing was that her sapphire blue low cut dress was sshed with milk, which made Shelly very angry. What a bad luck. Yesterday, she heard from her uncle that the son of the chairman woulde to the hospital for an inspection today and asked him to dress up. It would be the best if she could attract his attention. Because ording to reliable information, the heir in charge of arge family business seemed not to have any interest in women, and so far he did not even have a nominal fiancee. Shelly had spent a lot of money on the dress, which cost her several months'' sry. "Sorry, I''m sorry." Cindy apologized and took out a tissue to wipe the milk stains off Shelly''s clothes. Raising his head, Shelly Zhang was even more furious. "Cindy, why are you everywhere? Look at this dress." While cursing, she shook off Cindy''s hand. "Crack!" the milk and bread in Cindy''s hands flew out. At this time, it was the peak time of the outpatient department. Milk and bread hit many people. Suddenly, there was a series of exmations in the outpatient hall. "Sorry, sorry..." Seeing that she had made a mistake, Cindy bowed and apologized again and again. Shelly lowered her head and looked at the white stains on her clothes. Her heart was burning. She rushed over and pped Cindy. "Cindy, it''s you again. Do you know how much I bought this dress? Compensate me." "Shelly, I..." Covering her hot face, Cindy looked at the crowd and didn''t know what to say. "How much is it? I''ll pay for it." A man said coldly. "Can you afford it?" Shelly shouted without turning his head. "Well, tell me." His cold voice sounded quite casual. At this moment, every pore of Shelly seemed to be burning. She suddenly turned her head and wanted to see who was uninteresting and came here to meddle in other people''s business. A man stood at the door. With his back to the light, Shelly couldn''t see the man''s face clearly, but he saw more than ten tall men in ck standing behind him, all wearing sunsses. He was a big shot. The man seemed to be dressed in a high-end customized ck suit. He walked slowly to Cindy and wiped the bread crumbs from her mouth carefully. "Look at you. Your mouth would always be covered with bread crumbs, just like before." His tone was gentle and full of affection. Hearing the familiar voice, Cindy couldn''t help looking up and was stunned. Ethan Huo. He stared at herself with a faint smile in his eyes. He turned around and cast a cold nce at Shelly. Instantly, a chill rose from the soles of Shelly''s feet. He had dashing eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose, and his features were as hard as knife carvings. His deep and sharp eyes were radiating a terrifying light. His thin lips were tightly pursed, making him even more unapproachable and indifferent. He was dressed in a high-end customized ck suit, which wrapped his tall figure, but couldn''t hide the strong hormones. There was such a handsome man in the world. Shelly''s eyes widened in an instant, and the anger just disappeared. "Miss, how much is your dress? Let''s see if I can afford it." The man sneered. Oh my God! Her voice was so pleasant to hear. Like an anthomaniac, Shelly stood there in a daze. President Qin came down the stairs and took a few steps forward. His fat body quickly came to him, and his face was full of ttery. Behind him were several senior leaders of the hospital. "Oh, Mr. Ethan, what brings you here today? Why didn''t you tell me in advance?" Beads of sweat began to form on his forehead as he spoke. Obviously, President Qin got the news just now and ran down the stairs in a hurry without waiting for the elevator. Mr. Ethan? Ethan Huo?! Cindy felt so surprised as if a bomb had been thrown away. Not only Cindy, but also Shelly was frightened by what President Qin said. Her eyes almost fell to the ground, and her scarlet mouth opened wide. He stuttered, "Mr., Mr. Ethan..." ncing at Cindy, Ethan walked straight to President Qin and said calmly, "nice to meet you, President Qin. I''m here to talk to you about the matter of Steven." "Mr. Ethan, if you areing, please inform us and we can go to wee you." President Qin nodded and bowed with a big smile on his face. The other senior executives of the hospital followed President Qin''s words and tried their best to curry favor with Ethan. "Yes, President Qin is right. Mr. Ethan is here to inspect the work. You should have informed us." "Mr. Ethan, please." President Qin bowed and made way for him. Without any hesitation, Ethan winked at Leon and strode over. While walking, Ethan stared at Cindy. A caring shed through his eyes. Cindy didn''t notice the affection in his eyes. His face was as cold as ice. Leon handed the check to Shelly. "Miss, this is the money we paid for your clothes." It was one hundred thousand. The number on it surprised her. No wonder he was the young master of No.2 People''s Hospital of J City However, Shelly didn''t dare to ept the money. "No, No. I was just kidding with Mr. Ethan." Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Shelly waved her hand, her face full of embarrassment. When Leon was taking the check back, a key to the door was handed to him. "Please return this key to Mr. Ethan. I don''t need it." Although her voice was low, her words were firm. Mr. Ethan? Cindy finally figured out why Ethan had the key to those popr single apartments from President Qin''s words. It was a piece of cake for Mr. Ethan to do. "Well ?" Leon didn''t dare to take it over. He knew what was on Mr. Ethan''s mind best. Cindy put the key in Leon''s hand, turned around and left. She straightened her back, raised her head and held back the tears in her eyes. The Cheng family had been forced into such a situation by the Huo family. She didn''t want to be connected with Ethan anymore. Chapter 20 I Have A Name Chapter 20 I Have A Name The mountain road was winding. At the end of the road, there were trees and arge independent vi. The wall was paved with uneven stones, looking ordinary. However, on the ck que hanging on the door, there were two words, "Huo''s Mansion", which were made of golden, immediately showing the extraordinary owner. In the study on the two floor. Sitting at arge desk, Ethan''s face darkened. There was a key on the table in front of her. The words "2006" on it was very eye-catching. How could this woman be so stubborn? "Ethan, I don''t think we will be happy together, so let''s break up." Cindy had said this to break up. And the she said nothing no matter how Ethan asked. She just pressed her lips and didn''t say a word. Finally, she made up her mind and left Ethan a back. She was thin, but her head was high. Stubbornness came out of her bones, and she gave off cold air, making people not allowed to approach her. Now, Ethan finally knew why Cindy behaved like that. She must have been heartbroken at that time. Thinking of this, Ethan frowned more tightly as if his heart was stabbed by a needle. We agreed to be together at that time, and that was a lifelong promise. I will not easily give up. My woman can''t be set up like this. With a livid face and a cold expression, Ethan stared at the key of "2006" with his cold eyes. "Mr. Ethan, do you want me to send the key back to Miss Cindy?" Standing at the door and looking at Ethan''s cold face, Leon felt his palms sweating. He knew that this expression. It meant that Mr. Ethan had made an important decision. "No, since she doesn''t need it, forget it." After a long while, Ethan said in a low voice, raising the corners of his mouth slightly. The atmosphere suddenly changed, and Leon couldn''t follow it. "Mr. Ethan..." Ethan stood up, walked to the window, stared at the dark clouds outside and pressed over. All of a sudden "Do you mean there is something hidden behind the bankruptcy of Cheng family?" After a quite long time, Ethan turned his head and looked coldly. His ck eyes were full of murderous will. "Yes, Mr. Ethan. ording to the investigation, the Cheng family went bankrupt and was likely to be framed. Charles Cheng''spany had always been doing domestic trade, and the scale of it was not big. But after so many years, everything went smoothly. Jason had congenital heart disease since he was a child. It was said that Charles had spent a lot of money on it, but the profit of thepany was enough to cover the expenses of the Cheng family. Logically speaking, Charles has no reason to take over an unknown foreign enterprise with all his wealth." Hearing Leon''s words, Ethan got more serious and his face darkened. "Mr. Ethan, we have found several friends of Charles when he was alive. They all said that he was born with a mild nature and could live a good life in business. He didn''t offend anyone at all. He is a good man in everyone''s eyes..." Bang! Ethan''s fist hit the window. The window ss was broken and then fell down. Ethan''s face turned livid with rage. "There is no enemy or motive. So who is behind all this? Go and investigate it carefully. Find the person out and make him or her responsible for the Cheng family." "Yes, sir." It was the first time that he had seen Ethan so angry. Evenst time, in order to make Ethan marry as soon as possible, Old Mrs. Huo sent the eldest daughter of the Wei family to Ethan to break him with Cindy. Even at that time Mr. Ethan was not as angry as today. Leon didn''t dare to say anything more. He answered respectfully and was about to leave when he saw the back of Ethan''s hand bleeding. "Mr. Ethan. Your hand is bleeding. " "I see. You can do what I tell you. Remember, this must be done secretly and not in public." Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Ethan raised his eyebrows and answered indifferently. Then he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wrapped it around his hand. It was the id handkerchief. In the past five years, Ethan could change his clothes every day, but the handkerchief never left him. Leon bowed his head and left. Cindy, I must give the justice back to you. It had been five years, and he really didn''t know how heavy the burden was on her delicate shoulder. Standing in front of the window, Ethan didn''t feel anything except pain in his heart. He had to do something next. Wait for me, Cindy. I came back alive for you. "Rat-a-tat!" There was a knock on the door. Before Ethan replied, the person outside couldn''t wait to open the door, and a grey haired head came in. "Ethan." Hearing the scream, Ethan quickly turned around and put his hand behind his back. "Grandma." It was Old Mrs. Huo. Although she had silver hair and was almost old, Old Mrs. Huo had a straight waist and looked several times better than Ethan at the moment. "Ethan, Leo just said that your hand was scratched. I''ve asked him to bring Dr. Lin here. Come here and let Grandma have a look. When I got up in the morning, my eyelids kept twitching. Look, something just happened." Old Mrs. Huo yelled at the door. Leon was really troublesome. Ethanined in his heart and walked over obediently. Old Mrs. Huo had been loving Ethan since childhood. In front of her, Ethan seemed to be more like a normal person. Looking up at the broken window ss smashed by Ethan, Old Mrs. Huo raised her voice obviously. "How could you say that you are fine? Look at the ss. ''Who installed this ss in the past? Why don''t you choose those of better quality? Now it just fall down. How dangerous is that? It was you hand that was hurt today. If it was on you head, it would be so dangerous. No, I have to ask someone to rece all these sses as soon as possible." Her nagging echoed in the room. Ethan smiled and reached out his hand. "Look, it''s not as exaggerated as you said. It''s just a small cut. I''ll deal with it myself. I don''t need to call Dr. Lin here. Leon is troublesome." The handkerchief that Ethan had just wrapped around his hand was soaked in blood. When he reached out his hand, it dripped on the floor. "Ah, Ethan, look at your hand. It''s bleeding. Are you okay?" Old Mrs. Huo was shocked. With a self-mockery smile, Ethan withdrew his hand and pulled Old Mrs. Huo out. "Let''s go downstairs and wait for Dr. Lin." "Dad." A childish voice rang at the door. Then a little boy ran towards Ethan. "Pumpkin, why are you upstairs? Where is Lina? Why is she not around you?" Old Mrs. Huo "Great grandma, I''ve told you that I''m not Pumpkin. I have a name, Will Huo. I''ve told you many times. Why do you always forget? Am I right, dad?" The little boy raised his head high and looked at Ethan with his bright ck eyes and a big smile on his face. His curly hair made him more adorable. Seeing this, Old Mrs. Huo couldn''t help but feel happy. "Hahaha!" Chapter 21 I Dont Want To Live Anymore Chapter 21 I Don''t Want To Live Anymore Unconsciously, it was getting dark. Cindy stood at the gate of the hospital and didn''t know where to go. Her mother called early in the morning to ask about the medical fees of Jason. When she knew that there was no money, she changed her attitude on the phone and fiercely told Cindy not to go home before she got the money. So Cindy had nowhere to go. Today was the day shift, and it was already past the off-duty time. Cindy was busy in the Department. She had nned to shift with someone, so she could make do with it in the hospital''s duty room in the evening. Unexpectedly, the three people on night shift today were Shelly and others. Cindy''s n couldn''t work. Since Ethan appeared in the hospital as Mr. Ethan, he even interacted with Cindy in front of others. In the past two days, the news of the hospital were steadily around Cindy. There was another version of the rumor. On their wedding night, Cindy cheated on ude and was caught in bed by Horald. During the melee between the two, ude was identally injured by Horald. When Cindy left, she found Ethan in the lobby of the hotel. Seeing that he had an extraordinary temperament and many followers, she believed that Ethan must have a rich family background, so she shamelessly stuck to him. Therefore, the whole hospital reckoned Cindy as the representative of skittish. Cindy saw the obvious contempt on the cleaner''s face when she walked through the hall of the in- patient department. If she had known this earlier, she wouldn''t have returned the key to Ethan. He was the future shareholder of the hospital. It was his duty to care about the employees. Why should I mind? In that case, at least she had a ce to stay tonight. A trace of regret appeared on Cindy''s face. After thinking for a while, Cindy turned around and stepped on the familiar road. She hadn''t seen Jason for two days and didn''t know how he was doing. Cindy was worried about him. No matter how Amanda treated her, she would definitely take care of Jason. Under the streetmp, the house of the Cheng family looked a little old, and the paint on the door was mottled. One could see that it was built a long time ago. This was the real estate owned by the ancestors of the Cheng family. Charles was a traditional man. After he got married, he took his family and lived with his parents. Although his business was not big, it was enough to cover the family expenses and Jason''s medical expenses, and he also saved a sum of money. Later, his business failed, and he couldn''t keep anything except the house left by his ancestors. In order to treat Jason, Amanda had thought of selling this house. Before Charlesmitted suicide, he left a letter of resignation and forbade Cindy to sell the house, asking her to keep the family property. For this, Cindy gritted her teeth and insisted for five years. It was already bright outside. It was dark in the Cheng family''s house. Feeling flustered, Cindy quickly took out the key from her bag. The more anxious she was, the more chaotic she became. In a panic, Cindy dropped the key into the grass. Cindy hurried to look for her phone again, trying to turn it on and light up the grass to look for the key. Unexpectedly, she took out her phone and pressed the button, but it was out of power. s, bad luck never came alone. There is nothing we can do to stop it. Under the dim streetmp, Cindy''s face was full of undisguised anxiety. She had no choice but to raise her hand and knock on the door. For a long time, there was no response from the inside. Did something happen? Cindy''s heart sank and turned her target at the next door. "Bang, bang, Bang..." Regardless of anything else, Cindy began to m the door of the Yun family next door. The voice was so loud that it suddenly rang out in the night. "Who is it? It''s so loud!" A sharp voice came from behind Cindy. Cindy turned around and rushed over. "Mrs. Yun, do you know where my mother and others are? Why is there no one in my house?" "Oh, how could you not know such a big thing?" Obviously, she was annoyed by Cindy''s knock on the door. Mrs. Yun curled her lips and said in a long voice. The darkness instantly shrouded her. Something really happened. Tears welled up in Cindy''s eyes. She held Mrs. Yun''s arm and said in a trembling voice. "Mrs. Yun, my family... What What happened?" "All right, all right. I don''t know. I just saw an emergency car parking at the gate of your house and carrying your brother away." "What? !" Cindy cried in panic, "Mrs. Yun, you know where they sent my brother and where is my mother?" "I don''t know. I just saw the words ''J City ''written on the ambnce. How about you go there and have a look?" After saying that, she hurriedly closed the door. Of course, she knew what had happened to the Cheng family. However, living next door and having such a family, she always felt that she was unlucky. Jason was carried away by the ambnce. Cindy was in a daze and didn''t know what to do. As a nurse, she knew what the ambnce meant. Jason. Cindy couldn''t help calling out her brother''s name. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. She really wanted to p herself. If she came homest night, maybe she could notice some signs in advance and send Jason to the hospital as soon as possible. In that case... In the hospital. In No.2 People''s Hospital of J City Realizing what had happened, Cindy ran away. "Taxi." She cried. Cindy ran along the road. No car stopped. Looking at the endless traffic in the north, Cindy''s eyes were full of despair. Jason, I couldn''t let anything happen to you. I''ming to you. Striding forward, Cindy ran wildly along the dark street, with tears flowing freely on her face. The Cheng family was located in a remote ce, far from the hospital. She didn''t know when she would arrive. Determined, Cindy rushed into the traffic, stood in the middle, closed her eyes and opened her hands to the speeding taxi. "Creak!" The screeching sound of brake was so sharp that people wanted to cover their ears. The car stopped and stopped one foot away from Cindy. "Are you seeking death? " The taxi driver poked his head out and roared at Cindy. Cindy hurried to the door of the driver''s car, crying and apologizing. "I''m sorry, master. Can you give me a ride? My brother was sent to the No.2 People''s Hospital of J City. I have to go. I''m afraid it''s toote. Please, master, please... " Seeing Cindy''s anxiety, the driver felt sorry for her and said politely. "Well, miss, you can call another car. I have a guest in my car." "It''s okay, master. Let her go." Noticing the driver''s embarrassment, the passenger in the back seat got out of the car voluntarily. Cindy shed tears of gratitude and got in the car before she could say anything of thanks. "Please, master, No.2 People''s Hospital of J City." The car rushed out. Chapter 22 She Is A Principled Woman Chapter 22 She Is A Principled Woman Emergency Department. This was always the busiest ce in the hospital. They were colleagues of the same hospital, so it didn''t take much effort for Cindy to find out that there was no patient named Jason in the emergency nursing station today. Hearing the result, Cindy was stunned. What did it mean? Mrs. Yun said it was the ambnce of No.2 People''s Hospital of J City. The nurse in the emergency room saw her red eyes and looked at the record carefully. "No, Cindy. I have checked the register two times. Besides, we know your brother. Everyone knows whether hees to the hospital or not." Other nurses nodded. "How about you go to another hospital and have a try?" Reminded by her colleague, Cindy rushed out again. She turned around so fast that she bumped into a doctor. The two put their hands on their foreheads at the same time. "Cindy?" "Dr. Bai?" The two looked up and recognized each other at the same time. "I''m here to get the report of the patient who has just been transferred from the emergency room to our extracardiac patient. Hurry up. His condition is so critical that we can''t dy him." Dr. Bai didn''t have time to talk to Cindy. He walked to the nurse desk and gave an order quickly. With the report in his hand, Dr. Bai turned around and left in a hurry. "Cindy, Jason was just talking about you. Why didn''t you go to see him?" What Dr. Bai said made Cindy stunned for a while, and then she understood what he meant. A flower like smile bloomed on her face. "Sheughed and cried sometimes, just like a lunatic. How could Mr. Ethan fall in love with her?" Cindy ran to the door and heard the nurse whispering. She was not angry and the smile on her face seemed to be higher. "Jason, Jason." Cindy trotted all the way to the door of Jason''s former ward and shouted. There was no one she wanted to see in the ward. The three beds were clean and it was obvious that no one had lived there before. Where was he? "Jason lives on the five floor, ward 515." Dr. Bai passed by and saw the puzzled look on Cindy''s face. He reminded her and left in a hurry. The patient who had just been transferred from the emergency room needed to be operated on immediately, so he had no time to waste. 515? That was the VIP room of the surgery department. The patient enjoyed the best treatment and special nurse''s care. Not to mention Cindy, even when Charles was alive, he didn''t have the money to let Jason live in such a good room. Cindy had to drag her heavy body to the fifth floor. When she reached the stairway, she missed a step and Cindy almost fell down. She took off her shoes with a bitter smile and held them in her hand. Today was really a tough day. She hadn''t had a good rest since she went to work. She had been fighting against the high heels for a whole day. Not sure whether Jason was inside or not, Cindy raised her hand and knocked on the ward 515''s door. With a crisp knock on the door, the door opened and Amanda stood at the door. "Hey, how could a busy person like you still have time toe here?" There was no smile on her face. It was Amanda''s cold words greeting Cindy coldly. "Jason." "Sister." The siblings said at the same time. Jason Leaning against the headboard of the bed, Cindy saw an empty bag hanging on the infusion rack. It seemed that he had just finished infusion. Perhaps it was because of the medicine that Jason''s face and lips were no longer bluish and ruddy. Cindy felt much relieved, but after a while, tears began to well up in her eyes and fell down from her eyshes. "Jason, you scared me to death. Mrs. Yun said you were taken away by the ambnce." "Sister, don''t you know that I am in hospital? The doctor who came to our house today said that he came here because of your order." "What did you say?" Cindy was even more confused by Jason''s words. Amanda closed the door, walked to the bed, stared at Cindy and said, "Cindy, I don''t care what you are doing outside. You saved your brother this time. Anyway, I should thank you. But you are his sister. It was what you should do." Cindy was confused. For the medical fees of Jason, she was so exhausted that she didn''t even dare to go back home. How could she afford the money? Moreover, this was a VIP room, so Cindy knew clearly what it cost for a day. Seeing this, Jason felt dejected and dejected. "Sister, thank you. For me, you have worked so hard all day long. It''s all because of this damn disease." "Don''t say this. Didn''t mom just say that I''m your sister? Silly boy." With a smile on her lips, Cindy touched his forehead with her finger. "Sister, it must be very expensive to live in such a room. I just live in the previous ward. It''s good." Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Staying in hospital for many years, Jason looked very mature, which was inconsistent with his age. He had witnessed what Cindy had done these years. Jason''s thoughtfulness made her heart ache. "It doesn''t matter. The room was bright and quiet, which was especially suitable for recuperating from illness. Just stay here. I''ll take care of the rest." At this time, Cindy already knew who sent Jason to the hospital. "Cindy, it''s not the way to spend money. We can''t afford to live in this VIP ward. With this money, we''d better save it. There will be a lot of money to spend in the future." Amanda''s attitude immediately changed. It seemed true that Cindy was in a rtionship with Mr. Ethan since Jason could live in such a room after paying for the medical fees they owed before. She had to be nice to Cindy. Cindy would be the only one who could help her and her son. Cindy thought to herself. Amanda was good at changing the attitude. Jason was fine. And her hanging heart was relieved, and tiredness came along. Cindy felt dizzy and shook her body. "Sister, what''s wrong with you?" "It''s okay. I have a lot of work to do today. I''m just tired." Cindy calmed down and tried to squeeze out a bright face. "Cindy, go home and have a rest. You have to go to work tomorrow. I''ll keep Jason apany in the hospital." Amanda stood up and put her hand on Cindy''s shoulder. Although she was just a nurse, the hospital was a life-threatening ce and she couldn''t be careless. If she didn''t have a good rest, she would be dizzy at work and inevitably get into trouble. "Then Okay. Jason, have a good rest. I wille to see you tomorrow." After saying that, Cindy waved her hand to Jason. Taking the key from Amanda, Cindy turned around and went home. Cindy frowned as she felt pain in her foot. Then she straightened her back and pretended to be rxed. When she walked to the door, she even turned around and made a face at Jason, which made himugh. It was too hard for her brother to deal with hospitals all day long. Cindy didn''t want to make him unhappy again. In the nurse station, Cindy pressed her lips tightly and stared at the nurse on duty. "Please help me check who paid for my brother''s medical fee." "Really? Cindy, don''t you know that? " "Who?" The nurse''s mocking voice made Cindy firmer her guess. But Cindy had to figure it out. She is a principled woman. Chapter 23 No Compromise Chapter 23 No Compromise The nurse raised her head and curled her lips. "Your brother''s medical fees are not paid at all. However, someone ordered that all the expenses of Jason in the hospital were free. Cindy, you are so great. It''s the first time I have met such a situation in the hospital for so many years." She cast a scornful nce at Cindy. "All?" Surprise was written all over Cindy''s face. Suddenly, the phone rang. A patient was about to be transferred from the emergency department, and the nurse was busy. Free of charge? ''Someone ordered?'' Yes, it must be him. Back to the Cheng family, lying on the bed, Cindy''s mind was in a mess. Rich people always like to be self-righteous and make decisions for others. But, Ethan, what are you doing? Was he tired of ying with rich girls and wanted to find a nurse to try the uniform temptation? In the darkness, Cindy''s bright eyes were burning and hot. Every detail of her rtionship with Ethan began to appear in front of her. Theughter on the road of the campus was still ringing in her ears. Tired and sleepy, Cindy couldn''t open her eyes and fell asleep. In the spacious cloakroom, Ethan stood in front of the mirror. After buttoning up the specially customized cuff link, he picked up a sapphire blue tie from the tall mahogany wardrobe and tied it. Looking at himself in the mirror, Ethan was very satisfied. The white shirt was ironed smoothly. Six strong abdominal muscles were faintly visible under the shirt. On the golden cuff link, there was a capital English letter "H", shining like a diamond. The whole person exuded a noble quality. However, all of these couldn''t cover up Ethan''s inherent heroic spirit. However, he was still as cold as before. He took the suit jacket and put it on. Ethan smiled at himself in the mirror. Yesterday, he finally did something for Cindy. Today, he seemed to be in a good mood unexpectedly. "Ethan,e and eat." At the table, Old Mrs. Huo saw Ethan walking downstairs. Ethan smiled and said gently, "no, grandma. I have something urgent to deal with. Take your time." Then he walked out of the gate briskly. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Old Mrs. Huo was stunned. She had never seen Ethan like this since he came back. Early in the morning, Ethan received a call from hispany, saying that he had to confirm an important contract face to face. He had to go there as soon as possible. Now, he was the only heir of the Huo Group. At the stairway, Pumpkin stood there, rubbing his eyes with his two little hands. He was still sleepy and muttering, "Dad." Ethan turned around and smiled. His tenderness was never stingy to Pumpkin. Outside the gate, the ck Bentley was already waiting. Ethan took a step forward and said, "Drive." The cold frost covered him in an instant. "Mr. Ethan, this is the breakfast prepared for you. Enjoy yourself." Leon handed it over respectfully from the front row. Then he stepped on the gas and the car drove away with a domineering roar. This man was smart and steady. Ethan was very satisfied with him. The Huo Group was the most famous enterprise in J City. Tall and bright French windows, clean and tidy office, and busy employees seemed to be showing the extraordinary of the Huo Group. "Mr. Huo." Walking in thepany, all the people who saw Ethan bowed respectfully to him. Emily, the Secretary, had already been waiting at the door of the president''s office. Seeing Ethaning over from a distance, Micheal Li quickly took out a small mirror, smoothed a few strands of hair that fell at her temples, and quickly took out a lipstick from her pocket and quickly applied it two times. Then she smiled at the mirror with satisfaction and put it away. A professional smile appeared on her face. Ethan''s face was always as cold as an iceberg. However, what Micheal liked was his cold and handsome appearance. Otherwise, she wouldn''t give up the high sry offered by the headhuntingpany and be willing to be a small secretary for Ethan. "Mr. Huo, this is the contract with Lawrence Company. Last night, they suddenly informed us that they wanted to terminate the agency agreement with us in advance. This matter is not trivial, so we contacted you early in the morning." After opening the door for Ethan, Micheal briefly reported the whole thing to him. "Got it." Ethan sat down at the table and picked up the freshly brewed coffee made by Micheal, raising his eyebrows slightly. The temperature was just right. He raised the ss to Micheal. "Thank you, Secretary Li." "Thank you, Mr. Huo." ncing around, Micheal felt that her face seemed to be more flushed. She quickly put the contract on the table in front of Ethan. Today, the boss seemed to be different from usual. His tone was no longer hard, but a little gentle. On the cover of the contract, there were words: TERMINATION AGREMENT. Frowning, Ethan picked up the contract with his slender fingers. He looked at it roughly and closed it. After taking a sip of coffee and half pay, Ethan opened his mouth. "Secretary Li, who was in charge of the agency contract with Lawrence Company and who followed up it? Why didn''t anyone take precautions in advance when such a big thing happened?" "Mr. Huo, Mr. Lin has been in charge of the contact with Lawrence. He has been waiting in the meeting room. It seems that someone is behind this." While speaking, Michael unconsciously looked at Ethan''s face. His sculptural features were cold and grim, and his thin lips were pursed tightly. His eyes were dark and deep. Michael knew that the boss was a little angry. "What do you mean ''seem''?. I, Ethan Huo, never allowed this word. If you don''t have any solid evidence in the future, don''t say it. Besides, you''d better know your own job." Ethan put the cup heavily on the table and stood up. His cold voice echoed in the room. Several drops of coffee spilled out of the cup fell on the contract. Michael quickly picked up the contract and followed behind Ethan. "I''ll print another copy right away and send it to the meeting room." The two walked out one after the other. There was a loud quarrel outside the door. "You can''te in. Miss, this is the Huo Group. If you want to see the president, you must make an appointment. " "Why can''t Ie in? I want to see Ethan." "Miss, if you insist, I have to inform the security department and let them handle it." "I don''t care who you inform. Anyway, I have to see Ethan today. If I can''t see him, I won''t leave." The two young women''s voices came from outside. Suddenly, the door was mmed open. A woman rushed in, staggered and fell in. Ethan held the woman tightly in his arms. Chapter 24 Dont Mess Around Chapter 24 Don''t Mess Around "Ethan Huo." Cindy, who was held in his arms, looked at the erged face above her head as well as the faint smile on his lips. This scene shocked everyone. It was Shell Xiao, Michael''s assistant, who quarreled with Cindy outside the door just now. "Mr. Huo, I''m sorry. Thisdy didn''t make an appointment and insisted on seeing you. I tried to stop her, but I failed. I''m sorry." She bowed and apologized, with tears in her eyes. She graduated from a third-ss university. Shell cherished being able to work in the Huo Group. She was afraid that she would be fired because of her dereliction of duty. "Ethan, it has nothing to do with her. I broke in by myself." Cindy knew the struggle at the bottom. She stood up from Ethan''s arms. She always thought for others. Five years had passed, but she still hadn''t changed. Ethan''s heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm. "You go out first. I have something to talk with thisdy." With these words, Ethan turned around and walked back. "Mr. Huo, Mr. Lin is waiting for you for the matter of Lawrence." Michael was a little anxious. The products of acting for Lawrence could reach 10% of the annual profit of the Huo Group. This number was already quite considerable. If Lawrence cancelled the agency unterally, the loss the Huo Group would suffer would be unpredictable. How could Ethan let such a big thing go for this seemingly ordinary woman? "Got it. Tell Mr. Lin that I''ll be there soon. Close the door when you go out." His cold voice was as dignified as usual. Not daring to say anything more, Michael had to go out and close the door gently. "Why are you here?" "Why can''t Ie here?" Cindy sneered. "If you are here to quarrel, I''m sorry. I won''t be with you. I have something else to do." Ethan sensed her unfriendly tone and frowned. "I don''t need you to remind me, Ethan. I know you still have a big business to talk about, but you have to deal with my ''trifles'' first." Trifles? What is it?" Cindy stressed the word, and Ethan''s eyes were full of doubts. Then he smiled. "I see. You don''t have to thank me for that. After all, Jason has called me brother-inw for so long." "Ethan, do you think that all of us should be grateful to you for sparing my brother''s medical expenses. Let me tell you, you are wrong. It''s none of your business." Cindy''s cool eyes were now spurting out a burning me. Ethan raised his eyebrows. He didn''t expect Cindy to be so aggressive. "You mean I was wrong?" A low and hoarse voice came out of his throat. Anger was mixed in. "Of course. Don''t think you can be self-righteous to make decisions for others just because you have a few stinky money." As soon as Cindy finished her words, Ethan''s face darkened in an instant. His eyes were as cold as ice, making people dare not look straight at him. Don''t you think you''ve gone too far? Looking at Ethan''s injured eyes, Cindy''s heart ached inexplicably. Cindy, have you forgotten what happened five years ago? How could she feel sorry for him again? "Did I do anything wrong? Self-righteous? Well, Cindy, I didn''t expect that my kindness would be rewarded with these words." ording to the news sent by Leon, he knew what had happened to Cindy in the past few years. In order to support the whole family and raise the medical fees of Jason, she was willing to stop her study and look for a job everywhere. When she had no choice, she even worked as a dishwasher in a hotel. After being introduced, she became an intern nurse of No.2 People''s Hospital of J City. It was known to all that Cindy majored in clinical clinic. After graduation, it was secure for her to work as an attending doctor in a third grade hospital like No.2 People''s Hospital. All of these made Ethan pitied Cindy more. However, in Cindy''s eyes, what he had done was self-righteous. "I''ll pay for the medical expenses of Jason by myself. You don''t have to pay. Leave your money to your woman. I don''t care." All of a sudden, the coquettish woman held tightly in Ethan''s arms popped up in Cindy''s mind. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Celina Wei. Without showing weakness, Cindy stabbed Ethan deeply with her words. Ethan couldn''t hear what she said. His deep dark eyes erupted clusters of sparks. In the office, there were dangers lurking before a storm. "Cindy, try again." Ethan moved forward and said in a low and angry voice. Obviously, Cindy was frightened and stepped back. "Ethan, what do you want to do?" Trembling slightly, Cindy said in a much lower voice. The arrogance just now disappearedpletely. Ethan moved forward step by step firmly, frowning. "What am I doing? What do you think I want to do?" Ethan looked like an irritated leopard. Cindy had to be careful and didn''t dare to say anything. The smell of danger in the air became more and more intense. Leaving was the best strategy. These words shed through Cindy''s mind. She took a step back, turned sideways quickly and ran to the door. "Ethan, I have said what I want to say clearly just now. Jason is none of your business. I have to go to work." She couldn''t stay here any longer. It was too dangerous for an angry Ethan. How could Cindy escape? The next second, she fell into Ethan''s arms again. "Ethan, let go of me." Cindy''s body trembled. His thin lips were slightly open, and his eagle eyes were like a warm ck pool, which made Cindy flustered. "Let you go? Why should I let go of you? Didn''t you say that I was self-righteous? Today I''ll let you see what a real self-righteous person is." Looking down at Cindy, Ethan fixed his burning eyes on Cindy. He wanted to teach her a lesson. Ethan suddenly tightened his grip on Cindy''s elbow. He drew the distance between the two of them closer, and when he uttered thest few words, his broad palm descended. "Ethan, this is the office. Don''t mess around." Her body was tightly mped by Ethan''s arms, and Cindy couldn''t move at all. She could only hope that the fanatic Ethan could hear her at this time. But it didn''t work. There was something dangerous in Ethan''s eyes that Cindy was familiar with. The fists on both sides of her body were clenched more and more tightly, and the sharp nails pierced into her palms, but Cindy seemed not to feel any pain at all. She thought quickly. Raising his eyebrows, Ethan lowered his head without warning. Chapter 25 You Think Too Much Chapter 25 You Think Too Much She tried hard to get rid of Ethan''s control, but Cindy used a lot of strength and her face turned red. Because of the surge of blood vitality, she was more charming and lovely. Without hesitation, Ethan kissed her. The sudden kiss made Cindy unprepared. Her lips were soft and her face was burning. "Ethan Huo..." Cindy struggled hard in the encirclement of Ethan and murmured. Celina Wei. The name shed through Cindy''s mind again, and she became sober in an instant. Cindy felt humiliated. ''Ethan, I will never let you seed again.'' All of a sudden, she closed her eyes and took a hard bite. "Ah!" Ethan snorted and frowned. He covered his mouth with one hand and red at Cindy with his cold eyes. "What are you doing?" This woman bit him. Cindy didn''t say anything. She took a step aside and took the chance to run out. Unexpectedly, in panic, the phone slipped out of the bag and fell to the ground. Standing at the door, Cindy stared at the phone on the ground and didn''t know whether she should go to get it or not. Obviously, [ ] was infuriated to the extreme. It was too risky to pick up the phone. While Cindy was hesitating, Ethan came over quickly. He picked up the phone, walked to the window and reached out his hand. "Ethan, what do you want to do? That''s my phone." Cindy shouted. "I know. This is your phone. But if you want it,e over. Otherwise, I won''t be able to keep your phone if I let it go." Ethan said coldly. As he spoke, a pain came from his lips, which made him frown. When Cindy came up just now, she saw clearly that this floor was 26. If the phone was really thrown down byEthan, there must be only pieces left. However, the phone was a legacy left by her father, which was the only thing she could recall her father. But if she walked over to get her phone, she were just like amb in a tiger''s mouth. N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content. Cindy hesitated and didn''t move. "Well, it seems that. You don''t want this phone at all. Let me help you get rid of it. " As he spoke, Ethan loosened his grip. "No." Cindy shouted and rushed at him with all her strength. The next second, she was held tightly by Ethan. Ethan shook Cindy''s phone in his hand two times and gave it back to her. Cindy wanted to leave, but was stopped by Ethan again. Two steps forward, Ethan pressed Cindy against the wall. She tried to get rid of him in panic, but there was no way. Ethan''s arms were very powerful, and Cindy was no match for him. "Ethan, you are such a despicable man." Anger was burning in Cindy''s clear and ck eyes. Staring at the prey under his body, Ethan raised the corners of his mouth, shing a faint evil spirit. Was this woman challenging his bottom line today? He was Ethan Huo, the only inheritor of the Huo Group, and the mysterious ''Moon Shadow'' was in his charge. But this woman in front of him didn''t seem to take him seriously. With the fanatic eyes and her hands constantly stroking, Cindy had sensed the approaching danger in the air. "Ethan, you will regret it." Cindy stopped struggling. Desperation could be seen in her clear ck eyes. She clenched her fists tightly, with her nails deeply embedded in her flesh, and her body trembled more and more violently. The coldness in her tone was like an iceberg that had been frozen for thousands of years, straight to the bottom of one''s heart. Ethan had never seen Cindy like this before. He was stunned. Cindy leaned against the wall and looked at Ethan coldly. Frustrated, Ethan lowered his head and punched the wall. The gauze wrapped around his hand instantly soaked out blood. "You just go." Like a defeated soldier, Ethan''s words revealed a strong sense of frustration. Cindy picked up the phone and walked away in silence. When she turned around, she caught a glimpse of the gauze wrapped around Ethan''s hand, which was stained with blood. Her heart ached. "Wait!" Leaning his forehead against the wall, Ethan suddenly shouted. "Don''t worry. I won''t bother you anymore. I''ve told the hospital that you don''t need to worry about the medical expenses of Charles. With his health and self-esteem, you should know which one is the most important. The doctor said that if he didn''t receive treatment, his condition would be very worried. He is your brother. You can''t leave him alone. If you think the VIP ward is eye-catching, you can transfer him to the general ward. I''m done. You can leave now. " Without raising his head, he turned around, walked to the window and looked out. [ ] was moved by his words. She turned around and saw the back of [ ], who was still tall and slender. However, [ ] read a trace of loneliness and disappointment from it. Are you thinking too much? [ ] shook her head and opened the door. All of a sudden, several people who were eavesdropping at the door swarmed in the direction of the door. [ ] almost fell down and couldn''t help eximing. Since [ ] took over the Huo group, the chairman''s office, which had been as quiet as an ancient well, became a hot topic today. They were all curious. The noise at the door made Ethan turn around. "Mr Mr. Huo, I''m here to Please, please go to the meeting room. Mr. Lin just urged me again." In order to cover up the embarrassment, Michael had to mention Mr. Lin. After all, Michael was a sophisticated person. She quickly calmed down and made up a reasonable lie. "Okay." Replied Ethan. Dark clouds gathered. The most important thing for a secretary was to observe her boss''s words and expressions. She nced back and forth between Cindy and Ethan Huo. The atmosphere in the room was too weird and it seemed that something was wrong. Michael immediately winked at the others. They walked out one by one. "Mr. Huo, I''ll inform Mr. Lin." After saying that, Michael left the room in a hurry. Cindy followed him. Just then, a coquettish voice rose from the corridor. "Hey, why is here so busy today? Don''t you need to work?" Chapter 26 He Has Changed Back Chapter 26 He Has Changed Back Hearing the voice, all the people of the Huo family lowered their heads, walked away from the door and started their work. What a familiar voice. Looking at the direction of the voice, Cindy felt a chill in her heart. It was Celina Wei. All of a sudden, what appeared in Cindy''s mind was that she was lying next to Ethan, raising her head and looking at her triumphantly. Ethan Huo. Cindy bit her lips tightly and clenched her fists. She straightened her back and pretended to be calm. Then she walked past Celina. Celina was a beauty. The red tight dress was obviously made by a famous designer. The fabric was very texture and well cut, showing the designer''s extraordinary taste. It was wrapped around Celina''s curvy figure, and the design of the t cor just showed her beautiful corbone. The ne around her neck also showed the owner''s taste. She wore a pair of ck stilettos, walking unsteadily. Celina didn''t recognize Cindy until they passed by each other. "Hey, isn''t this Cindy? Why do you have time toe to Ethan today?" Of course, Ethan heard the exchange of words at the door. He didn''t turn around but frowned slightly. Ethan? How affectionate she was. Cindy sneered in her heart and didn''t stop. Tears welled up in her eyes. She didn''t want anyone to see them. All the people in the Huo Group looked up at the scene. Since Ethan took over the Huo Group, the eldest daughter of the Wei family had be a regr customer, and everyone in thepany knew her. Now that the two women met in thepany, the show was about to begin. They had a general idea of what had happened to Cindy and Ethan in the room just now. "Cindy, we haven''t seen each other for five years. Why are you in such a hurry? Can''t you let go of Ethan?" Celina walked near. Her makeup was delicate and impable. But her words were extremely vicious. Cindy stopped and turned around. "Celina Wei." Tears welled up in Cindy''s bright eyes. She bit her lips with all her strength. "Cindy, I advise you to take good care of your family. Don''t think about the wrong things. How could Ethan fall in love with someone like you?" Her sneer instantly resounded through the office. Celina''s sarcasm and sarcasm were like needles piercing Cindy''s heart. Her body trembled slightly, and her sharp nails pierced into her thighs. The pain drilled into every pore of her, and crystal tears hung on the tip of her eyshes. Seeing this, Celina curled her lips and sneered coldly. "Oh, you look so tearful. Who do you want to seduce?" "Celina." Ethan strode over and put his arm around Celina''s shoulder, His voice was low and hoarse. However, the corners of his mouth were raised high, and a smile was hung on his face. Celina was stunned. Ethan had never called her so gently, let alone be so intimate with her in front of others. After a while, the smart Celina understood and instantly leaned over. "Ethan, I want to eat Japanese cuisine today. Can you go with me?" Holding Ethan''s arm, she leaned her head against him and raised her head, pouting. Celina''s red dress and Ethan''s ck suit looked like a couple at the wedding. "Okay." He lowered his head and pecked on Celina''s forehead. A limp and numb feeling, like a current flowing on Celina''s body. Celina whined and put her white and tender arm on Ethan''s. "Ethan, you are so bad." Knowing that Ethan was just acting, Celina didn''t want to miss this opportunity. Ethan frowned slightly, but immediately unfolded his brows. "Let''s go." Holding Celina tightly in his arms, Ethan turned around and left. At the door of the office, Ethan turned his head and gave a charming smile to Michael. "Secretary Li, go and inform Mr. Lin to wait. I have something else to do." The door of the office was kicked heavily by Ethan. Everyone in the Huo Group was stunned. Ethan, who was as cold as an iceberg, smiled as if he had changed into another person today. The crystal on Cindy''s eyshes fell with the sound of the door closing. The scene in Ethan''s room five years ago shed out again. Cindy felt heartbroken again. She couldn''t breathe, as if she was strangled and almost suffocated. Tears welled up and wetted her clothes. No, she didn''t want to stay any longer. She didn''t want them to see her embarrassment again. Cindy turned around and ran out quickly. N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content. Screw Ethan. Screw Celina. Screw all this. Cindy ran on the road, tears streaming down her face. In fact, Cindy didn''t notice the affection in Ethan''s eyes when he turned around just now. As soon as the door was closed behind him, Ethan opened it for Celina. Celina didn''t agree. She put her arms around Ethan]''s neck and kissed him. "Ethan, HMM..." Ethan''s cold thin lips almost belonged to her. "Celina, get out of the way." His deep ck eyes were still cold. He had changed back. "Ethan." He hated it to the core. "Celina, if you don''t get out of the way, don''t me me for being rude." The expression on his face was cold, and the disgust was obvious. If he went on, he would get nothing. After thinking it over, Celina had to stop. "Ethan, you can''t burn the bridge after crossing it. I know you just used me to get rid of Cindy. But you promised me to have Japanese cuisine with me in front of so many people. Keep your words." Standing aside, Celina straightened her clothes and smiled. All these years, she had been used to the cold Ethan. ''Ethan, it''s not easy for you to escape from me.'' At least, I have Old Mrs. Huo, my trump card. Without saying a word, Ethan opened the door and went out. He had to deal with Lawrence''s matter as soon as possible. Chapter 27 Give Birth To The Baby Chapter 27 Give Birth To The Baby Lying on the bed, a thick needle as put into Jason''s thin left arm. He was too thin. The nurse almost couldn''t find his blood vessel because of the infusion every day. Only by putting this kind of needle into his arm could he avoid the pain of looking for blood vessels every day. "Sister, why are you here? Aren''t you going to work today?" He felt a little strange when he saw Cindye in. "Does it hurt?" Cindy walked over and touched the arm beside the needle. Tears fell down from her eyes. "Sister, it doesn''t hurt. I''m used to it." Jason stood up andforted her in a soft voice. However, his understatement made Cindy unable to control her emotions. The grievance because of Ethan suddenly gushed out. Tears fell down. Family was the greatest warmth for Cindy. "Are you okay?" Amanda stood up and asked casually. Jason had been staying in this superior ward for a whole day. His ck and purple lips had turned red. For this, she was very grateful to Cindy. "It''s okay, mom. You''ve stayed up all night. Go back and have a rest. I''ll have a rest today and I''ll apany Jason." "Okay. You two talk." Amanda stood up, tidied up and was about to go home, She was indeed a little tired after spending the whole night in the hospital. "I''ll buy some meat and make some dumplings. I''ll bring them to you tonight." Walking to the door, Amanda suddenly turned around and said with a smile. With a heavy nasal sound and red eyes, Amanda knew that Cindy''s tears were not simple. In fact, she had witnessed Cindy''s efforts for the family in the past five years. "Yeah, I haven''t eaten the dumplings made by mom for a long time." Jason''s cheerful voice rang out in the ward. Then he turned to look at Cindy and shouted, "Sister, aren''t you happy to have dumplings?" "Yes, I am." Cindy forced a smile at Jason. "Mom, let''s go. I can''t wait to eat your dumplings." "You look so happy." Jason''s smile infected her. The unhappiness she got from Ethan disappeared without a trace. Cindy wiped her tears and joked with Jason. Since Ethan had asked the hospital to cut off the medical fees of Jason, then it was fine. Anyway, he owed her. Those bad things were nothingpared to Jason''s health. Cindy raised her head and smiled happily. Dr. Bai walked in withughter. "How''s it going today, Jason?" "Dr. Bai." The siblings cried out at the same time. Dr. Bai nodded and began to make the rounds of the wards as a routine. He asked about Jason''s condition, put the stethoscope on his chest and listened carefully. "Yes, the situation has changed. Keep it." Rolling up the stethoscope and putting it into the clothes bag, Dr. Bai smiled. Cindy answered seriously and made up her mind. At the worst, she could return the money to Ethan when she made money. However, she''d better quit the VIP ward. Cindy had her own bottom line. The nurse changed the medicine for Jason and walked out with Dr. Bai. The big ward quieted down. "Jason, why don''t you sleep for a while? When you wake up, the medicine will be finished." Jason nodded. She shook the head of the bed and saw that Jason closed his eyes. After tidying up the infusion tube, Cindy walked to the sofa in front of the window and sat down. Looking out from here, there was argewn, surrounded by all kinds of flowers, delicate and attractive. Everything quieted down. Jason''s slight breath and the sound of liquid dripping from the medicine bottle were clearly seen in the room. The reason why Ethan and Celina made out in public was to tell her that she and Celina were two different people and that they would never be together. In the past, being together was just a boring joke of the master of a rich family. Cindy, you idiot, why do you take it seriously? The needle like pain spread in an instant, and the tide that had just stopped came again. Ethan Huo. She put her hands on her legs and put her fingers into the flesh. Cindy murmured the name, but found that she could not hate it at all. At that time, Ethan''s eyes were full of passion. If it was really a joke, he was really the best actor in the world. Why did she offend the second master of the Huo Group? If she could make another choice, Cindy would definitely choose the opposite way. The five million check had brought her humiliation, and she had long forgotten it. However, whenever it waste at night, Cindy felt heartbroken when she thought of that child, who had never seen the sun. "Miss Cindy, the examination result is not very good. The inner wall of your uterus is very thin. If you have to do this operation, I''m not sure whether I can protect your uterus. Because during the operation, it was inevitable to hurt the membrane on the uterine wall. In other words, this operation may cause damage to your uterus. It''s difficult to have a baby again in the future. Think it over. Do you still want to C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org. have this operation?" In the Renai Gynecology Hospital, Cindy was sitting on the steps at the gate. The doctor''s words had been lingering in her mind. What did she do wrong? Why did god treat her like this? Old Mrs. Huo had made it clear that she would never allow a woman with no family background to marry Ethan. Besides, she had already found a candidate for Mrs. Huo. She threw out a check of five million coldly, just treating her as a material girl who wanted to cling to power. Cindy didn''tpromise for love. However, fate seemed to be joking with her. Cindy made up her mind to confess her love to Ethan. However, the moment the door was opened, Cindy froze. Ethany prone on Celina. The room was filled with a wonderful atmosphere. It was self-evident what had happened between the two. Cindy felt sick. She didn''t want this child, because it was her and Ethan''s. But what the doctor said The passers-by looked at them curiously. Caressing her belly, Cindy made a decision. She was going to give birth to this baby. Things went contrary to her wishes. No matter how hard she tried, in the end, the child she wanted to keep could not escape the fate of miscarriage. In the blue sky, there were a few white clouds floating, quiet and serene. Baby, how are you doing in the sky? In the next life, you must find a good family when you are reborn. Tears were about to fall, and Cindy''s eyes seemed to pierce through the clouds. The phone suddenly rang, which startled Cindy. Chapter 28 Only Three Days Chapter 28 Only Three Days The weather seemed to be very good today. The sky was blue and the clouds were white. The warm sun shone on her body, making her feel rxed and happy. Cindy hadn''t been in such a good mood for a long time. A breeze blew, and long hair flew behind her ears, and her dress was raised in the wind. Closing her eyes, the breeze, the warm sun and the smile of Cindy''s lips just spread on her face. The call she received in the ward yesterday was really good news for her. Cindy didn''t know the person on the phone. He called himself awyer and said that Horald had agreed to give up all the property and asked her to take back the house in the Garden of Fragrance as soon as possible. Needless to ask, Cindy knew who sent thewyer. Whatever. The house in the Garden of Fragrance was originally paid by Cindy alone. Shouldn''t it be returned to her after divorce? She had been so exhausted these days that she had forgotten the most important thing. The house was bought before. Fromst year to now, the price of houses in the whole J City rose sharply. The one hundred square meter house was now at least two times the price. The house could be sold at a high price. In that case, the medical fees of Jason would be paid. Thinking of this, Cindy smiled even more happily, with a small dimple on the corner of her mouth. In that case, she wouldn''t have to ept Ethan''s pity. That was why Cindy was happy today. He had hired awyer, which could be regarded as the crime of Ethan''s atonement for the aborted child. s. Thinking of the child, Cindy sighed. Her face darkened. She turned a corner and arrived at Garden of Fragrance. No. 2406. Seeing the door number, Cindy took out the key from her bag, opened the door and walked in, This was the wedding room bought by Cindy. All the furniture and decoration were made by her hard work at one point one. Seeing the familiar scene in front of her, Cindy hadplex feelings. She had nned to live an ordinary life with Horald in this family. But now it seemed so ridiculous. Everything was just her wishful thinking. It was so with Ethan back them and the same with Horald now. "Who?" Mindy''s coarse voice came from the dining room. Cindy knew that Joyce had a miscarriage and Horald lost his job. Everyone should be at home at dinner time. She specially chose this time to reach an agreement. She had to pay the medical fees of Jason with her own money as soon as possible. "Mom, it''s me." It was not until Cindy shouted that she realized something was wrong. She and Horald had divorced. As expected, Mindy blurted out. "Fuck off! Who is your mother?" "Who is it?" Sensing the anger in Mindy''s tone, Horald walked out with a lit cigarette in his hand. Horald was surprised to see Cindy. "Cin Cindy? It''s sote. What are you doing here?" "I''m here to talk to you about us." "Get out of here. You have divorced. What else do you want to talk about?" Before Cindy could finish her words, Mindy roared like firecrackers. Mindy still looked like a shrew in the countryside. She put her hands on her hips, and the flesh on her face shook violently as she moved her mouth. She had eaten vegetables and leaf residue at night, which were filled with her teeth. Ignoring Mindy, Cindy turned to Horald and said, "Horald, I''m not here to quarrel with you. Can we have a talk and settle this matter peacefully. Besides, it was you who agreed. Thewyer asked me to talk to you." "Whatwyer? Don''t scare me. Cindy, since you have divorced, why do youe back to this family? How dare youe back after what you have done behind Horald''s back? " Mindy didn''t give Horald a chance to speak at all. She kept jumping up and down, and her saliva almost sshed on Cindy''s face. These two words exploded in Horald''s ears. The tall man in ck, the gloom in his eyes, and the agreement to press his finger print shed in front of him. "Mom, you go to have dinner first. I have something to talk with Cindy." "Horald." Mindy didn''t expect that Horald would be so polite to Cindy today. Hiding at the door of the dining room, Joyce saw the embarrassment of Horald, rolled her eyes and shouted. "Mom, I want to eat an apple. Peel it for me." "I aming." Mindy answered and walked to the dining room. But she still turned around and gave Cindy a hard stare. Horald led Cindy to the living room and sat down on the sofa. "Horald, I don''t want to mention what happened. Today... " "Cindy, I know why you are here today. But as you can see, Jjoyce just had a miscarriage and I don''t have a job. For a while, I can''t find a ce to live. The house will be returned to you. But you have to give me some time." Cindy was interrupted by Horald. He stared at Cindy pitifully. "I will return the house to you as soon as I find a job." Horald swore before Cindy said anything. "Horald, I''m not here to negotiate with you today. I''m here to get the door key. Moving is not a small matter. I''ve given you three days. It''s enough. Of course, in addition to the house, there are also my sry card and credit card." Cindy sneered in her heart. The man in front of her could sell him to others for benefits. How could she believe him? "Here are your sry card and credit card. I''ve already prepared them for you. Give me some time about the house." Horald took out two cards from the drawer of the tea table and put them on it. Cindy didn''t expect that. Did he y any tricks? Cindy picked up a card and looked at it. It was indeed her sry card, with her own signature "CH" written on it. This was the first English letter of her and Horald''s names. Thinking of her innocence, Cindy curled her lips and smiled with self mockery. When she was about to take the credit card, a short and fat hand quickly swiped it over. "Why?. Horald, are you crazy? She cheated on you and you have to give her money." Mindy shouted at Horald, holding the credit card. "Mom." Horald''s face darkened. He med his uneducated mother for meddling. He was not that stupid to hand over everything obediently without getting any property. "Horald, you don''t have a job now, and Joyce needs to recuperate her health. There are so many ces to use money, and you can''t let her go easily." It seemed that Mindy] was more anxious than Horald. Cindy put the credit card into his pocket and said coldly, "Horald, I have to get this credit card. And, the house, three days, I will only give you three days to move. I''ll get the key then." Mindy was stunned. Then she pounced on Cindy.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. Chapter 29 Jump Off The Building Chapter 29 Jump Off The Building Cindy sat on the sofa. Before she could Dodge, Mindy pped her hard across the face. Suddenly, Cindy''s face turned red. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. "You shameless bitch, get out of here!" Mindy didn''t give up and kept shouting. Cindy red at her. "You..." "What. You seduced men outside and wanted toe back for a house. No way. This house belongs to my son. It has nothing to do with you." "Mom. It''s none of your business. Go to rest." Harold was afraid of making trouble. Those men in ck were not easy. Horald hurried to mediate the dispute. "Horald, we can''t be a coward. This woman has ruined our family''s reputation and wants topete with you for a house. Let alone three days, three months, three years, we won''t move. This house belongs to the Tao family. Why should I move it?" "I bought this house with my money. Why should it be yours?" Cindy was filled with anger. Cindy stood up, clenched her fists and argued. "Why? Because my name is on the room book." Mindy didn''t want to give up, but she was secretly happy and a trace ofcency flew up to her eyebrows. In order to show that she wanted to live a good life with Horald, Cindy was thinking clearly. After hearing Mindy]''s words, she wrote down register the house under Mindy''s name, but the money for the house was paid by Cindy alone. A gust of nameless anger instantly escaped from Cindy''s body, and she could no longer bear it. This family was so shameless. "Don''t you think you are a little rascal to say that? I paid for this house. All of you know that." "So what? Who knows. It''s my name on the book. This house is mine." Mindy raised her voice several times. Her face twisted in the light, looking extremely ferocious. The quarrel resounded through the room. With an apple in her hand, Joyce walked over from the dining room and leaned against the door frame. She looked at Cindy coldly for a long time and then curled her lips. "Sister-inw, what are you doing? How dare youe back and take over the family property after cheating with someone else? Don''t you think it''s too much?" Cindy felt that her chest was full of anger. She bit her lower lip tightly and didn''t say anything for a long time. She let go of his fist and put it into his pocket. Like attracts like. They were so shameless. Fortunately, she had already prepared on the way here. "Horald, be fair. Did I, Cindy, pay for the house in Garden of Fragrance alone? Mindy''s name was written on the book because you promised to live with me for the rest of your life. Now we are divorced and the house belongs to me. You have promised me." Turning to look at Horald, Cindy said lightly, stressing the names of herself and Mindy. Horald sat on the sofa, depressed. The noise in the room almost made him copse. He raised his head after a while. "Cindy, I admit that you paid for the house. But now I don''t even have a job. You can''t let my family live on the streets, can you? Just let us live here temporarily for the sake of our friendship." These days, Horald had been to all the hospitals in J City, but no one dared to keep him. Even the older private clinic returned him without saying a word after reading the resume. Although he didn''t know where the man came from, Horald was sure that the cold treatment he received must have something to do with him. Leon came to him with the agreement that made him give up all his property. Horald didn''t think too much and pressed his hand print. He knew that if he didn''t sign it, the consequences would be unbearable for him. Without saying anything, Cindy just looked at Horald coldly. "Horald, don''t be a coward." Mindy]''s shrill voice exploded in an instant and ran over quickly. Obviously, Joyce was also anxious. His voice was higher than Mindy''s. "That''s right, brother. Aren''t you begging her? Mom''s name is written on this house. It''s natural for us to live here. She''s the one who''s going to leave." After shouting, she red at Cindy. brother? How ridiculous. Hearing this, Cindy curled her lips and a trace of obvious contempt and disgust shed across her face. Seeing the change of Cindy''s expression, Joyce was a little angry and ashamed. "Bitch, what do you mean?" Cindy nced coldly at the furious mother and daughter, and stared at Horald on the sofa. "Horald, I''ll get the house three dayster." Then he turned around and left. She didn''t want to waste her breath. It was obvious that this family didn''t want to move out from here. Cindy knew that the price of the house had risen so much, and Mindy was not worried about it at all. "Get the house? You must be dreaming. Mom, go and change the lock tomorrow. I''ll see how she is going to get in." Joyce was so angry as if she had really be the owner of the house. Hearing this, Mindy smiled happily. "Joyce, you are so smart. Just do it." "I''m telling you, I''ve recorded what you just said. If I can''t get it in three days, mywyer wille to inform you." Cindy stood quietly at the door, staring at Mindy and her daughter. Then she took out the recorder pen from her pocket and waved it at them. She had had enough of this family. "Ah. You are so insidious. Give it to me." Joyce screamed and rushed over. Cindy snorted coldly and dodged aside quickly. This time, it happened so fast that Joyce couldn''t stop at all and bumped into the door frame. The force was so strong that it made a loud noise. "Oh my God! She is so mean. Brother, why don''t you say anything? Mom..." The angry and anxious Joyce was incoherent at the moment. Before Horald could say anything, Mindy roared and rushed over, raising her hand high, trying to give Cindy a hard lesson. Seeing this, Cindy didn''t dodge and raised her head. "Horald, if they keep making trouble like this, I will tell them everything that has happened in detail in the court. Remember, everything." Seeing her unprecedented firmness, Horald looked up in surprise. He knew what Cindy meant. Mindy], who had already rushed in front of them, was also stunned. She didn''t understand why the obedient Cindy suddenly changed. Suddenly, Mindy ran out of the living room, sat on the edge of the balcony and shouted, "Cindy, put that thing down, or I will jump down from here." Chapter 30 She Jumped Down Herself Chapter 30 She Jumped Down Herself "Mom." "Mom,e down." The brother and sister of the Tao family shouted at the same time, their faces turning pale. "Mom,e down. This is fourth floor." Joyce was even more panicked. She rushed over and tried to pull Mindy down. "Joyce, leave me alone. This house is going to be lost. Where will the three of us live in the future? You are still in poor health, and your brother doesn''t have a job. How can we live in the future? I''d rather die... " Mindy rolled her eyes and cried, but she kept winking at Joyce. Joyce understood her immediately. "Mom, don''t jump. If you jump off the building, my brother will be convicted. People outside will definitely say that he has married a bad wife and forced his mother-inw to die. Mom..." Although she was shouting, she couldn''t help squinting at Cindy. "Stop it." Horald stood in the middle of the room and shouted with a livid face. He was fed up with this scene. He had thought that he would definitely be the director and be able to get a house for Joyce, but now he lost his job. Horald had been depressed for several days. Horald''s face was covered with dark frost. The room quieted down in an instant. "Meow..." A ck cat ran from the balcony next door and pounced on Mindy. The balcony was open-air. When it was decorated, considering the convenience of drying clothes, it was not sealed. This big ck cat was a pet of the next house. It always liked to jump between the terrace of the two families. Mindy was staring at Horald in a daze,pletely unprepared. The ck cat pounced on her and screamed so loudly. Mindy was startled and moved aside subconsciously, forgetting that she was sitting on the edge of the balcony. "Ah!" The shrill scream pierced the night sky, sounding creepy. Joyce, who was facing Mindy, was stunned. Mindy''s seat was empty now. "Mother," Horald shouted and rushed over. "Mom, mom..." Joyce, who came to her senses, quickly ran over and looked down at the balcony edge. She only felt dizzy. Under the streetmp, there was a ck shadow on thewn of themunity, motionless. Joyce opened his mouth wide and cried for a long time. "Brother, my mother, my mother Boo... Hoo... " This happened too fast. Cindy was also stunned. She didn''t expect that things would suddenly turn out like this. Horald frowned and rushed out of the door without saying anything. He ran past Cindy and suddenly stopped. "Cindy, it''s best that my mother is fine. Otherwise, I won''t let you go." He gnashed his teeth and red at Cindy, as if he was going to eat her up. "Brother, waah, brother, wait for me, wait for me..." Joyce cried and followed her. She didn''t know that one of her slippers had fallen. The brother and sister rushed to the elevator. After a short pause, Cindy hurried to catch up with them. She ran all the way to the downstairs. When she arrived, the open space was already full of people, discussing. "Who is it? Why did she fall down?" "Yeah, it''s so miserable." Not far away, a woman was lying on thewn with her face down. Blood gushed out from the ce next to her head and spread under her body. Thewn was wet, and her right hand was still holding the credit card of Cindy tightly. "Mom, what''s wrong with you? Mom... " Joyce rushed in front of her and saw the miserable look of Mindy. She rushed over and cried out, heartbroken. Seeing this, Horald, who was running over, felt bad. He was a doctor and knew the consequences of falling down from the upstairs. Moreover, Mindy was not young anymore. He reached out and touched Mindy''s neck. Horald''s face turned pale in an instant. He knelt down heavily and murmured, "Mom." Even under the dim streetlight, the blood under Mindy''s body was still dazzling, and the night was eerily and terribly gloomy. Standing aside, Cindy''s face was pale and her body trembled slightly. "120, call 120, waah..." Joyce suddenly raised his head and yelled at the crowd, choking. Then she turned around and tried to turn Mindy over. "Mom, mom..." "Don''t move." Cindy rushed over and grabbed her by instinct. Joyce shook her off, her eyes red with tears, and stared at her fiercely, "get out, get out of here, you murderer." "Joyce, mom fell down from upstairs. She must have a fracture and can''t move freely. We''d better wait Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. for the doctor to deal with it. I''m a nurse. I know... " "p!" She pped Cindt hard across the face. Before she finished her words, Cindy felt her ears banging and her face burning. Raising his head, Horald''s face turned livid with rage. He red at Cindy. "Fuck off!" "Horald, you are a doctor. You should know that the greatest taboo for falling from a height is to move at will." Holding back the tears in her eyes, Cindy tried her best to dissuade him. Mindy was annoying, but it was a matter of life and death. Cindy couldn''t kill her in front of her. Joyce suddenly stood up from the ground. Her long hair was disheveled, and her eyes were scarlet. A fierce light came out from it, wishing to let Cindy die in front of her. "Get out! Don''t pretend to be a good person here. If it weren''t for you, how could my mother fall down the building?" Being forced to step back, Cindy clenched her fists, lowered her head and exined. "It''s none of my business. She fell down herself." Horald waved his hand hard, and Cindy was knocked to the ground. Her palm rubbed on the ground, and a piercing pain rushed over. The ambnce whistled in a hurry. Everyone stopped and looked sideways. The doctors and nurses got out of the car and rushed over with medicine boxes. "Doctor Tao?" The doctor was surprised to see Horald. Nodding his head, Horald remained silent with a gloomy face. Joyce sat on the ground, with her hands covered with blood and crying loudly. When the ambnce arrived, she grabbed the doctor''s leg and shouted, "doctor, doctor, hurry up. Check on my mother. Boo... Hoo... " After a while. The doctor stopped and stood up with a long face. "Doctor Tao, your mother''s condition..." Not finishing his words, the doctor stopped and looked at Horald with embarrassment. Cindy came in and was about to say something, but was pushed away by Horald. Chapter 31 Give Me Back My Life Chapter 31 Give Me Back My Life "It''s okay. Just say it. How is my mother?" Horald''s voice was a little cold and trembling. As a doctor, he had already known that Mindy''s condition was not good. "Doctor Tao, Cindy, your mother fell from the sky. She is still so old and her condition is not optimistic. Let''s go to the hospital first. But you''d better be mentally prepared." After saying that, the doctor looked at Cindy and Horald and quickly ordered to carry Mindy onto the stretcher. When she was past Horald, the credit card in Mindy''s hand fell at the foot of Horald. Horald picked it up. The credit card had already been dyed red by the blood of Mindy. Suddenly, Cindy felt two sharp cold lights stabbing into her body. She turned around and saw Horald ring at her with murderous look in his eyes. "Doctor Tao, Cindy, hurry up." Seeing the two people still standing there, the doctor sat in the car and shouted anxiously. "Brother, hurry up." Regardless of anything else, Cindy followed Horald and was about to get on the car. Horald sat next to Mindy''s stretcher and kicked at Cindy. He shouted, "Get away." Cindy took two steps back and fell heavily to the ground. "Cindy, you''d better pray that my mother is fine, or I will make your life a living hell." Horald mmed the door heavily. The ambnce whistled and roared away. The shing red light on the car roof quickly disappeared in the night. "Let''s go. It seems that it is not good." "Don''t you see the doctor''s face? She might be out of the game. She is getting old and needs to be careful." "I don''t think it''s that simple. Let''s wait and see." The onlookers looked at Cindy sympathetically, whispered and finally dispersed slowly. Cindy was left alone. Cindy wanted to sit up, but her hands were sticky. She lowered her head and found that she had just fallen to the side of the pool of blood, and her hands were full of blood. At this time, the blood began to solidify. The fresh red blood was a little dark. In the night, it was strange and appalling. Cindy was a little scared and got up quickly. How did it end up like this? She just came to collect the house, but now she made such a big trouble. Although it was not her fault, it was her fault. Tears welled up in her eyes. What should she do now? ''They must hate me so much now. It''s just a self-humiliation to go to the hospital.'' Cindy hesitated. After thinking for a while, she decided to go home first. She was the only one at home. Cindy took a shower and changed into clean clothes. She had no appetite to eat and went to bed early in the morning. It was dark. Cindy tried to open her eyes, but saw nothing. Suddenly, a horrible voice came. "Bitch, give me back my life." The voice seemed toe from the ground, chilling and frightening. The room suddenly became an ice cer. "Who are you? " Cindy was so frightened that she shrank back sharply. The hair covering her face was slowly lifted, and Mindy''s face, which was soaked in blood, shed out of the darkness. She opened her mouth, revealing her white teeth, with fresh red blood hanging on them, dripping along the teeth. "Bitch, look at me. It''s you who made me like this. I''m here to ask for your life today. Give me back my life." A pair of cold hands instantly strangled Cindy''s neck. "Bitch, even if I die, I have to drag you down to die with me. You killed me." In an instant, Cindy felt that her throat was almost out of breath, as if golden flowers were blooming in front of her. Cindy struggled hard and kept kicking her legs. "Ah!" Cindy tried her best to make a muffled roar from her throat. With a kick, Cindy opened her eyes. The golden sunshine was warm and shined on the head of the bed from the outside. The window was not closed, and the light blue grid curtains were raised high with the morning wind. The room was quiet and gentle. it''s dawn. It turned out to be just a dream. Cindy touched her chest and found that her hand was sweating. Why did she have such a weird dream? Did Mindy? ? Without thinking too much, Cindy got out of bed. Let''s go to the hospital. She looked around the kitchen and found that there was no ready-made breakfast in the fridge. Cindy made herself a bowl of noodles and sat in the room to eat slowly. In the past few years, for the sake of the big stall of the Cheng family, Cindy had always bought her breakfast on the way to work. She seldom had breakfast at home like this. Even if she was off duty today, she had to hurry to the hospital to change her mother. Looking at the empty bowl, Cindy smiled with satisfaction. The doorbell rang. It was especially clear in the quiet morning. Cindy went out. It was so early. It must be her mother. "Horald?" Surprised, Cindy put her hand on the door frame and looked at the man standing outside. Without saying a word, Horald walked into the room with a gloomy face. Only for one night, Horald''s hair was in a mess, and his face was dim. His beard was covered with stubble, and his eyes were red. He looked sleepless all night. As soon as Horald came in, Cindy quickly closed the door. Mrs. Yun next door was a famous gossip. If she saw Cindy standing at the door with a man with stubble early in the morning, Cindy would definitely be the headlines tomorrow. "Horald, why are you here? Mom How is your mother?" "Don''t pretend to be kind. Give me the money." Horald stood in the middle of the room, with fire in his eyes and shouted at Cindy. Cindy was confused and didn''t know what Horald meant. Horald stepped forward coldly and stretched out his hand, then Cindy''s neck was mped by him. "My mother is now in ICU and the hospital is waiting for the payment. It''s all your fault. Bitch, give me the money." "H Horald, you To be honest, your mother is She fell down herself. Well Ahem!" Cindy was choked on the neck and couldn''t breathe. With red eyes and tightening hands, Horald walked a few steps forward and pressed Cindy against the wall. "Cindy, the hospital said that we must pay today. If you hadn''te to make trouble, how could my mother fall like that? If you don''t pay today, I won''t let you go." Horald''s face twisted in anger. He slowly approached Cindy. Horald, who used to be gentle and elegant, now seemed to have changed into another person. Cindy grabbed Horald''s hand and tried to get rid of him. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Chapter 32 You Killed Someone Chapter 32 You Killed Someone Horald was a head taller than Cindy. Although he was not strong, the thin Cindy was no match for him. "Give me back my life." Mindy''s bloody face shed through Cindy''s mind. The face in front of her was shaking fiercely, as if to eat Cindy alive. Out of nowhere, Cindy shouted, "let go of me." "Ah!" then a muffled groan was heard. There were several deep nail marks on the back of Horald''s hand, and somece had oozed blood. "Cindy, you bitch! How dare you hurt me?" "Horald, you came to my house in the morning. What do you want from me? Your mother fell down the stairs by herself. It has nothing to do with me. Why should I pay the money? I tell you, I won''t give you the money." Cindy covered her neck with her hands, trembling slightly and stepping back slowly. If she hadn''t embedded her nails into the back of Horald''s hand, how could she get rid of Horald''s control. She argued strongly, but she didn''t dare to provoke Horald. The strength gap between the two was so big that Cindy knew how to judge the situation. Horald obviously saw through Cindy''s scruples. He smiled coldly. "Cindy, you must pay for my mother''s hospitalization. Otherwise... " Before he finished his words, Horald pounced on Cindy. Cindy took a few steps back and turned to run away. But she was still a littlete. Horald pounced on Cindy and pressed her against the door frame. "It''s not that easy to run away. Bitch, you can''t get out of this room without money today. Anyway, you are just a worn out woman. Don''t pretend in front of me." "Horald, what do you want to do?" Cindy was scared out of her wits. Horald''s eyes were filled with the light when the hunter saw his prey. She knew what he wanted to do. Horald wanted to have sex with Cindy many times before their marriage, but was refused by her harshly. Horald was in his prime, so it was normal for him to have such a need. But he couldn''t tell why. It seemed that Cindy was a little reluctant to be with him. "Of course you know what I want to do. Don''t y dumb with me." Cindy''s back was pressed against the cold wall, not allowing her to retreat. She struggled desperately, trying to escape from Horald''s shackles, butpared with a man, her strength was so small that it was equivalent to an ant fighting a big tree. "Horald, let go of me. If you keep doing this, I''ll call the police." Cindy raised her head and trembled. As if he didn''t hear what Cindy said, Horald pressed his body against Cindy and tore her hands. Then the buttons of Cindy''s shirt fell, revealing her flesh pink bra. Cindy couldn''t get rid of Horald''s grip. The beast light in his eyes frightened her. "Horald Tao." Afraid of the shrill voice, she did not stop Horald. Horald couldn''t control himself anymore. Cindy was struggling, and her chest bulged, which made him more excited. Cindy closed her eyes in despair. The phone rang. It came out of Horald''s clothes bag. "Horald, your phone." Cindy seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. However, Horald turned a deaf ear to her and hurriedly lowered his head to Cindy''s chest. The phone kept ringing. Although Horald was annoyed, he didn''t stop. "Horald, the phone, the phone, maybe it''s from the hospital. Is it your mother..." Cindy racked her brain and found a reason to stop Horald. As expected, Cindy''s words made Horald stop. He paused, let go of Cindy, and took out his phone. "Hello, who is it? ." Cindy felt his grip loosened and ran away. She didn''t hear clearly who was calling, but saw Horald''s face gloomy and terrible. After Horald finished the phone, Cindy had already gone. It was a call from Joyce. She said that Mindy was in a bad condition and asked him to go to the hospital as soon as possible. Mindy fell from upstairs. Fortunately, she fell on the grass although there were multiple fractures and intracranial hemorrhage on her upper body. She was sent to the ICU after the operation. It had just rained heavily a few days ago, and the soil on thewn was soft. Mindy had survived because of this. But on the phone just now, Joyce said that Mindy''s intracranial hemorrhage suddenly increased and she was in a critical condition. She asked him to go and sign the paper as soon as possible. Horald looked around and found that Cindy was gone. Horald angrily held the phone in his hand and rushed out of Cheng family. "Bang!" A heavy m of the door came from behind. "[ ], I wille again." Turning around, [ ] shouted at the gate of Cheng family. [ ] leaned against the door and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw [ ]''s back disappear at the end of the alley. She didn''t know what would happen if she didn''t answer the phone. As her knees became soft, [ ] sat on the ground, trembling violently, and tears began to fall from her eyes.

It seemed that this cry could wash away the humiliation [ ] had just given her. A loud ringtone came from the kitchen of Cheng family. Cindy sat on the ground, burying her head between her legs, with tears in her eyes. She didn''t want to move at all. She seemed to have used up all her strength in the fight with Horald just now. C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org. The phone kept ringing. "Hello..." "Cindy, why haven''t youe to the hospital yet? What time is it?" The voice of the Head Nurse reminded Cindy that she had changed shift with Lena yesterday, so she should go to work early today. Cindy washed her face and put a thinyer of powder on it. Her bright red cheeks and rosy lips made her look less sad and more energetic. When Cindy arrived at her department in a hurry, the director had already checked the wards with the doctors. After greeting the Head Nurse, Cindy began to work. It took Cindy a long time to finish the patient work that Lena was in charge of. Her waist and back ached, so she stopped pushing and pinched her shoulder. Suddenly, a noise came from the nursing station. It seemed that a new patient had been transferred. Out of professional instinct, Cindy cheered herself up and walked quickly over. Several policemen stood there. When they saw Cindye in, one of them quickly came over and asked, "Are you Cindy?" "Yes." Cindy nodded in confusion. "Well, pleasee with us to the police station. Someone used you of murder." Chapter 33 An Excellent Man Chapter 33 An Excellent Man In the chairman''s office. At the desk, Ethan''s knitted brows finally rxed. Outside the window, it waste. The night sky was enchanting with colorful lights. He stood up, took a bottle of red wine from the wine cab and slowly poured it into the goblet. Ethan picked it up and shook it slowly. The red silk like wine swirled and hung a trace of red charm on the ss wall. The air immediately emitted a mellow and rich fragrance. He had been busy for several days and finally handled the business of Lawrence Company. It was his style to be decisive and resolute. The other party dared to take the risk of offending Huo Group to pry the business of Lawrence. It seemed that his opponent was really bold. After the contract was settled, the person behind this was still a mystery. This aroused Ethan''s strong interest. "Rat-a-tat!" There was a quick and clear knock on the door. Standing in front of the French window, Ethan turned his head. Leon came in. "Mr. Ethan, something happened. It''s Miss Cindy... " His tone was anxious and his expression was even more nervous. Ethan''s heart sank. "Say it." "Miss Cindy is used of murder in the police station. And... " Before Leon finished his words, Ethan put the ss on the table heavily and walked out. With a livid face, he ordered in a deep voice, "go and drive." Several drops of red wine sshed out of the ss and fell on the documents on the table, bright red and dazzling. "Miss Cindy, we are just doing our routine. Please cooperate." The policeman said in an unfriendly tone. Apparently, he lost his patience. Sitting opposite, Cindy lowered her head slightly and exined, "Sir, I''ve told you many times. I didn''t Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. do it. That night, I went to collect the house. Thewyer told me that Horald agreed to return the house to me. It was just an ident. There was a cat." "Cat? Miss Cindy, Mr. Tao is using you of pushing his mother downstairs, but you told me it''s a cat. . Don''t you think we police are idle today to sit here and listen to your story? " The policeman stood up and threw the file on the table. After struggling for a long time, the little woman in front of him stubbornly refused to admit her crime, which made him a little angry. Cindy stood up immediately and wanted to exin more. She felt dizzy and shook her body. "Sit down." The policeman pointed at her and shouted. Cindy held the table and sat down slowly. "Sir, what I said is true. I... " She wanted to say something more, but when she nced sideways, she found that the policeman''s face was unusually pale, and Cindy swallowed the rest words. The two of them didn''t say anything, and the interrogation room was temporarily quiet. All of a sudden, the police turned the light on the table to the brightest. He turned around and shouted at Cindy, "Miss Cindy, please tell me the truth." The strong light made Cindy''s eyes turn dark in an instant. Cindy stretched out her hand to block it. Tears welled up in Cindy''s eyes. "I didn''t do it. I said it wasn''t me. Not me." The constant questions overwhelmed her. "She said she didn''t do it, and then it is." A man''s voice came over Cindy''s head, word by word in a cold voice. Then, Cindy felt warm on her shoulder. She raised her head and saw Ethan with tearful eyes. He was still handsome, but his thin lips were tightly closed. His face was cold, making him look more tough and cold. "Who are you? Get out. Don''t you see that the police are handling the case?" The policeman turned around and said coldly. He had to try his best to do what Horald told him. "Ethan?" Cindy was full of surprise. In an instant, she smiled with self-mockery. Well, the news that she had be a murderer should have spread all over the hospital at this time. Ethan is the future owner of the hospital. Why is it strange that he knows about it? However, when Cindy saw Ethan suddenly appear in front of her, she felt much more relieved. She stood up slowly with the help of the table. Cindy felt dizzy more. She was a little unstable and shook a few times. Holding Cindy''s waist, Ethan bent over and held Cindy in his arms. "Lawyer Liu, I''ll leave it to you." Then he picked up Cindy and left. The policeman was so angry that he stood up and shouted, "put it down. Who are you?" "Sir, this is the phone of the police chief. Please answer it." Thewyer brought by Ethan stepped forward, stopped in front of him and handed the phone to him. What a handsome man. When Ethan walked out of the interrogation room with Cindy in his arms, he attracted everyone''s attention. In a hurry to go out, Ethan even forgot to take his coat. He was tall and slender, with a ck shiny silk shirt, indistinctly showing the outline of strong muscles. His impable features, however, revealed an undisguised handsome in maturity. It should be a pleasant thing to be held in such an excellent man''s arms. However, the man''s dark and cold eyes and tightly frowned eyebrows seemed to be very dissatisfied. The women looked at Cindy with envy. Lying in Ethan''s arms, Cindy naturally sensed it. "Ethan, put me down. I can walk myself." Blushing, Cindy said in a low voice. Ethan looked straight ahead, without stopping and frowning. He had noticed Cindy''s tiredness when he entered the room just now. That policeman dared to treat his woman like that without evidence. Ethan pursed his thin lips. As the focus of the party, Cindy''s face became more and more red, and her whole neck began to turn red, and her tiny thin earlobes were almost transparent. "Ethan." Cindy struggled slightly, as if to announce her own ideas. "Don''t move." His cold voice was dignified, and a cold wind swept down from her head. Cindy felt that Ethan''s hand was tightened. She didn''t dare to say anything more. This man could do anything. Cindy lowered her head. It was none of her business. She was almost driven crazy by the police''s questions. The woman in his arms lowered her head, and the curve just exposed Cindy''s white and slender neck. Under the light, there was a halo of fluffy hair. Under the gaze of everyone, Ethan took Cindy out of the police station. "Mr. Ethan." Leon had been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw Ethaning, he immediately opened the door and respectfully blocked the car roof with his hand. With a cold face, Ethan threw Cindy into the car. Then he got on the car and sat down next to Cindy. "Ethan, I''m getting off." In the narrow car, Cindy felt a little breathless, and her face became redder and redder. "Drive." The domineering and cold order allowed no one to refuse. Leon stepped on the gas and the car sped away in the night. Chapter 34 You Are My Woman Chapter 34 You Are My Woman Cindy pressed her face against the window. The neon lights at night and the stars lit up, which were dragged into a long tail behind the car. They were very beautiful in the changing atmosphere. "Ethan, I want to get off the car." Her voice was low. After saying that, she moved to the other side. Anger instantly engulfed Ethan. So obvious disgust. This woman hated him so much. She had left him like that five years ago. She was so determined. Now she was even tired of being with him. He kept silent. "Thank you for what you just did, Ethan. I have something else to deal with. When I came out of the hospital today, I didn''t know if Head Nurse had arranged for Lena''s patients. I was so anxious that I forgot to take my phone with me. Lena and I have changed shift today. If something goes wrong, Lena and I will lose our bonus this month. " She chattered a lot. This woman was not only annoying, but also so long winded. Ethan frowned. He nced at her coldly. Cindy''s body trembled slightly when she met this pair of eyes. She immediately looked away and stared out of the window. "Ethan, you are a rich man. So you don''t know that a month''s bonus is enough for my family''s living expenses for a week?" Cindy''s eyes were soon covered with ayer of mist, and her voice sounded a little choked. Ethan''s heart seemed to be stung by deeply. The knuckles of Ethan''s fingers tightened in an instant. His face darkened, but he reached out his hand. Ethan wanted tofort Cindy. However, as soon as her fingers touched the clothes, Cindy suddenly shrank aside. There was no vacant space at the door. Cindy had to lean against the door to keep a distance from Ethan. His hand froze and Ethan frowned. It was quiet in the car. Leon peeked at the two people sitting in the back row from the rearview mirror. "Mr. Ethan, where are we going?" "The Huo''s Mansion." "Hospital, Ethan, I want to go back to the hospital." Cindy looked at Ethan sadly. When she looked sideways, she found that Ethan''s face was as cold as ice. The Bentley turned a corner and drove towards the Huo''s Mansion. Looking out of the window at the fast passing street view, Cindy didn''t know where to go, but she could see clearly that it was not the way to the hospital at all. "Ethan, can you show me some respect? I''ve told you that I''m going to the hospital." Respect? The two words made Ethan''s face darken. She had never respected him. The seat in the car was so small that she had to deliberately avoid it. "Ethan, how can you do this? Is it great to have money?. Stop the car. Stop the car." Tears welled up in her eyes and anger erupted in an instant. Cindy shouted, trying to jump out of the car. The door was locked. After several times, Leon had learned how stubborn Cindy was. Just now when he saw Ethane out with Cindy in his arms, he knew that there would be another fierce battle. "Ah!" Cindy shouted hysterically and shook the door with her hands. Leon stole a nce at the rearview mirror and happened to meet Ethan''s cold eyes. An icy cold voice was heard. "Focus on driving." The car sped forward, raising dust. Cindy''s protest didn''t work. Atst, she had topromise and give up. Five years had passed, but Ethan seemed to have changed. Cold-blooded, domineering, allowing no one to obey him. Leaning against the car window, Cindy''s eyes swelled up because of the dazzling light. She closed her eyes and felt tired. "Creak!" The sound of brake awakened Cindy. Standing outside the car, Ethan looked at the sleepy Cindy. "Get off the car." In a daze, Cindy obediently opened the door. When she just stretched out one foot, she found the words ''Huo''s Mansion'' right in front of her. The scene shed through her mind. Cindy shrank her legs and mmed the door. No, she would never enter the door again. Ethan frowned. H quickly turned around, opened the door and pulled Cindy out. He was angry at Cindy''s resistance to him. Ethan held Cindy''s hand so hard that she lost her bnce and fell to the ground. A trace of pity quickly passed between his eyebrows. However, Cindy, who was sitting on the ground, clenched her fists. There was stubbornness in her clear eyes, as if she was going to fight against Ethan to the end. He frowned more tightly. In the night, the smoke of war permeated silently in the air. Suddenly, Ethan stepped forward, bent over and held Cindy in his arms. Then he strode into the Huo''s Mansion. "Ethan, put me down." Cindy''s face turned pale with fright. Her shrill voice resounded through the Huo''s Mansion''s gate. He stopped and stared at her with his eagle like eyes. Ignoring him, Cindy yelled and kicked hard in Ethan''s arms. At this moment, she was not afraid of anything as long as she didn''t enter the Huo''s Mansion. "Put me down. Ethan, let me go HMM... " The scream suddenly stopped. Ethan lowered his head quickly and kissed Cindy''s soft lips. Lily, who opened the door, was bbergasted when she saw this. "Mr...." Raising his head, Ethan went upstairs to his room. The woman in his arms had already made him lose his patience. "Bang!" The door was kicked open by Ethan. "Ethan, put me down." Without any barrier on her lips, Cindy cried out. With a cold face and cold eyes, he stared at Cindy. Cindy had no idea what Ethan was thinking about. Another ''bang'' sound was heard. Cindy felt that she suddenly lost her bnce and flew in the air, and then fell heavily on a pile of soft cotton. She opened her eyes. Cindy found herself thrown on the bed by Ethan. Everything went ck in front of him. Ethan pressed on the bed and sank into it. Then, a face full of anger stopped in front of Cindy, and a familiar light shone in his dark eyes. Realizing that the danger was approaching, Cindy tried her best to retreat. Ethan bent down a little, his thin cold lips almost touching Cindy''s face, and Ethan''s handsome face was erged in front of her. Cindy gasped for breath. "Ethan, what do you want to do?" "What do I want? Cindy, do you just ask such an idiot question? A man and a woman sleep in the same bed. What do you think I want to do?" Ethan raised his eyebrows and smiled yfully. Cindy was stunned. Then her face turned red. "Ethan, let go of me. Let go of me. Cindy struggled hard and her hands danced in the air. Ethan grabbed Cindy''s fair and slender wrist and pressed it against the bed. Then he lowered his head to stop Cindy from chattering. With her clear eyes and attractive lips, Ethan could only feel the movement of his heart. C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org. "Cindy, you are my woman. You can''t run away for the rest of your life." Chapter 35 You Are My Mother Chapter 35 You Are My Mother Her hand was tightly mped by Ethan, so Cindy had no strength to break free. She had to bend her knees and kick him randomly. "Ethan, I hate you. Let me go." Cindy shouted while Ethan was speaking. Hate? Cindy''s words irritated Ethan again. He put one hand on the back side of Cindy''s head and kissed out of anger. "Ah..." This woman dared to bite him again. The two of them tasted blood which was sweet and fishy. Ethan felt pain and let go of Cindy. He stared at the woman and was about to say something, but his face was pped heavily. "How dare you hit me? ." Get up. Standing in front of the bed, Ethan was confused. Ethan didn''t expect that. When did the gentle Cindy be a tough woman? Cindy sat up, took a piece of tissue from the bedside table, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth slowly, looked at the tissue contemptuously, and threw it on the ground. "Ethan, I hate you, including everything about you." She looked disgusted as if she had seen something extremely disgusting. In the past five years, he had been missing the sweetness they had together all the time. Every time they kissed, they would never stop. But now, she disliked him so much. Ethan was furious. "If it weren''t for me, you would still be in the police station. I saved you and you came to repay me in this way. If I hadn''t asked the hospital to cut off the medical fees, your brother would still be on the line of life and death. And you repay me in this way?" "I I, I will pay you back the medical fees. As for the police station, I, I will also thank you." Cindy lowered her head, speechless. s, short handed. Cindy was taken away from the hospital today in a nurse uniform. Because of the tangle just now, Her hair was in a mess, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of her mouth that hadn''t been wiped clean. At this moment, Cindy was charming and sexy. "You can thank me with yourself." Ethan]''s eyes were still burning with anger. This woman bit and beat him today, and he must return it. It''s too dangerous. Cindy got out of bed. Now Ethan was too dangerous. She had to run away from him as soon as possible. But she was no match for Ethan. With one hand pulling over, Cindy was pressed against the wall. This time, Ethan didn''t give Cindy any chance. He removed all the obstacles between them. Cindy had gone through too much on this day. She was really tired. In the end, Cindy didn''t know when she fell asleep. When she woke up. Cindy moved, only to find that her whole body was sore. It seemed that it waste and the sun was shining in. She struggled to get out of bed and saw a set of clothes on the bedside. They were a simple white T-shirt and blue jeans. The nurse uniform she wore yesterday was folded neatly on the sofa in front of the window. Thinking of what happened in the roomst night, Cindy blushed. It was quiet in the room. Ethan should have left. After getting dressed, Cindy opened the door quietly. There was no one in the corridor. The Huo''s Mansion''s members should have gotten up early. She had to leave now. If she was seen to Fortunately, the canvas shoes on her feet didn''t make any noise, which made Cindy feel relieved. But when she opened the door just now, before Cindy could step out, a child''s voice sounded, "Mom..." Mom? Cindy looked to the direction of the voice. A boy about five or six years old stood outside the door and poke his head out, staring at Cindy with his bright ck eyes. "Mom." Before Cindy said anything, the boy ran over in a sh. He opened her arms, held Cindy''s legs tightly, raised his head and called happily again. Mom? This boy called her. Cindy was full of doubts. She squatted down, held the boy''s hand and asked, "little boy, are you calling me mom?" "Yes. You are my mother." The little boy nodded vigorously. There was innocence and innocence in his clear eyes. And his skin was so good, white, tender and pink. His three-dimensional features looked as if they had been cut by a knife. Although he was young, he was very handsome. Cindy looked at the little boy up and down and had a good impression on him. Especially the slightly curly hair, which was simr to Cindy''s, made her feel that there was a wonderful fate with this child. "Kid, what''s your name? Where is your mother?" "Mom, my name is Will Huo, but great grandma always calls me Pumpkin. It''s so annoying." Pumpkin said first in a confident manner and then with a frown and helpless looking. The big trouble came out from the soft child''s voice, which sounded funny. "Hee hee." Cindy couldn''t helpughing when she heard this. However, when she saw that Pumpkin seemed unhappy, Cindy immediately stopped talking. "I''m sorry, Pumpkin. I was a little..." "I''ve told you many times that I''m not Pumpkin. I''ve grown up. I have a name, Will Huo. The Huo of the surname Huo, and Will of the Will Huo. " Cindy couldn''t helpughing at his serious exnation. "Okay, okay, Will Huo, right?" Cindy touched Pumpkin''s head and tried her best to hold back herughter. Suddenly, Pumpkin put his chubby mouth on Cindy''s face and gave her a kiss. A warm current, which had never been felt before, instantly spread all over Cindy''s body. N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content. "Besides, you are not a auntie, but a mother." He insisted. Pumpkin frowned, looking just like... Yes, he looked exactly like Ethan. Cindy was shocked. She took Pumpkin''s hand and asked in a low voice, "Pumpkin Will, is your father Ethan? " "Wow, you are really my mother. You recognized my father at the first sight. It''s Ethan." Obviously, Cindy''s tentative question made the child very excited. How could Ethan have such a child? "Will, how old are you?" Cindy stood up and asked casually. Pumpkin didn''t say anything. He just opened his five fingers with a smile and answered proudly. "Mom, I''m five years old now." Five years old? Cindy trembled and couldn''t speak as if her throat was blocked. Chapter 36 Everything Is Fake Chapter 36 Everything Is Fake Ethan''s child has been five years old. But why did he bring her to the Huo''s Mansion? Five years was neither long nor short. Cindy had been busy with the affairs of the Cheng family all day long, so she didn''t have time to sigh the grudge between her and Ethan. However, every morning and night, Ethan would turn into an ant and quietly bite every inch of Cindy''s nerve. "Mommy, give me a hug." Pumpkin pouted and shook Cindy''s hand. She lowered her head and looked at the child in front of her. An unfamiliar emotion spread in her heart. The hand in the palm of Cindy''s hand was soft and tiny, which instantly poked the softest part of her heart. Her clear eyes were filled with a thinyer of mist. The little person in front of her reminded Cindy of the aborted child. She tried her best to keep the child, but she failed. Her baby. However, no matter how cute the child was, it was the child of Ethan and another woman. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. "Pumpkin, I''m not your mother." Cindy let go of her hand gently, turned around and left. Watching Cindy''s receding figure, Pumpkin burst into tears. "Mom." The heartbreaking cry stopped Cindy. She turned around. Seeing Cindy stop, Pumpkin ran towards her with tears in his eyes. Tears streamed down Cindy''s face. The two words were like swords piercing through her defense line. She squatted down and picked Pumpkin up. "Mommy, why don''t you want Pumpkin? Boo... Hoo... " Putting his arms around Cindy''s neck, Pumpkin burst into tears. Cindy was at a loss whether to cry or tough. This child was finally clinging to her. She patted Pumpkin on the back and coaxed, "all right, baby. Don''t cry. Mom is here." Cindy was stunned. It seemed that this little Pumpkin had a special magic, which made her feel inexplicably familiar. She could not help but think of the child who had died. Her gentle words were like the warm wind. Pumpkin put his head on Cindy''s shoulder and stopped crying. Cindy felt a chill on her shoulder and smiled bitterly. "Pumpkin, is it time toe down?" "No, I want mommy to hold me." "You have stained my body. I have to wipe it. Good boy,e down." Hearing Cindy''s words, Pumpkin straightened up and looked at her shoulder. Then he got off in a hurry. The little guy was choked with sobs and tears just now, and her clothes on her shoulders were a little wet. "I''m sorry." Bowen raised his head, with tears in his dark and bright eyes and several drops on his face. What a pitiful look. Cindyforted her immediately, fearing that she was wrong and caused another flood of a thousand miles. "It doesn''t matter. It doesn''t matter. " Seeing that Cindy didn''t mind, Pumpkin stuck out his tongue and giggled. Theughter swept away all the depression of Cindy. She liked this child and didn''t care who he was. "Young master. Young master, are you okay? " The anxious voice interrupted the temporary happy time of the two. Lily, a servant of the Huo''s Mansion, ran upstairs and shouted. The young master was the treasure of the Huo family. If anything happened to him, how could she, a servant, take the responsibility? Seeing Pumpkin and Cindy''s intimacy, Lily was stunned. The woman Mr. Ethan brought backst night looked familiar. "Lily, do you think my mother is beautiful?" Pumpkin shouted. "Young master, you can call anyone mom. Thisdy is a guest brought back by your father." Lily hurried forward to stop Pumpkin. Then she turned around and smiled apologetically at Cindy. "Miss, I''m sorry. Please don''t me young master for his ignorance. Thedy was not at home. When there were young and beautiful female guests at home, he always liked to call them mom. Before Mr. Huo left, he told me that the car at the gate was prepared for you. Cindy blushed. The "Mr. Huo" she referred to must be Ethan. It seemed that she still remembered what happenedst night. Cindy recognized Lily. The annoying Ethan took her into the room in front of Lilyst night. "Okay." Cindy lowered her head and ran out as fast as she could. "Miss, wait a minute. Mr. Ethan also asked you to have breakfast before leaving. I''m ready and it''s in the dining room." She had been working in the Huo''s Mansion for five years, but she had never seen Ethan bring a woman back, let alone stay overnight. Judging from the blush on Cindy''s face just now, she should be a good daughter of a good family. Cindy kept her head down and didn''t dare to turn around. She felt that her ears were getting hotter and hotter. Lily must have treated her as some woman in her heart. The familiar Bentley was parked at the gate of the Huo''s Mansion. "Miss Cindy, please." When the door was opened, Ethan''s assistant stood there with no expression on his face. His tall figure, ck suit and cold voice, except for the big sunsses on his face, were carved in the same way as Ethan. Cindy thought for a while and got on the car without saying anything. It was far from the downtown. Besides, there were all rich people''s houses. It should be difficult to get a taxi here. What''s more,st night with Ethan made Cindy feel sore all over her body. How could she go to the hospital like this? With a car, she could save a lot of taxi fare. Why not? Cindy leaned back and looked at the mansion passing by. The blush slowly faded away. Thinking of the little master of the Huo family, Cindy''s face softened. That child was so cute. Five years old? She guessed that her child would have been five years old if it hadn''t been aborted. If so, Pumpkin would be as old as her own child. Thinking of this, Cindy suddenly sat up straight, with tears in her eyes and hatred in her eyes. Five years ago, when she gave birth to the baby, a woman also gave birth to Pumpkin. ha-ha. Cindy sneered in her heart. Ethan, you are a fucking liar. It turned out that she was a fool from beginning to end. When he was with her, he had another woman. Cindy, you are such a fool. All the sweet words are fake. Ethan has said those words to many women, but you have believed them for so many years. Cindy cursed herself in her heart. It seemed that it was Ethan who forced her to leave. A gust of cold air came up, and in an instant, she only felt the whole body cold. Her clear eyes, even the mist was not warm at all. She put her hand on her legs, and pinched her nails hard. Her nails were deeply embedded in her flesh, but Cindy did not feel any pain. Everything was fake. Chapter 37 The Opportunity Is Coming Chapter 37 The Opportunity Is Coming The car stopped at the gate of the hospital. "Here we are, Miss Cindy." Hearing no sound, the driver turned around. Leaning against the car window, Cindy''s face was as pale as a sheet. She looked lifeless. "Miss Cindy, Miss Cindy." The driver''s several shouts finally woke Cindy up. She forced a smile and opened the door to get off the car. Dizzy, Cindy walked forward. But she found that her steps were light and powerless, as if she was stepping on cotton. "Miss Cindy, Mr. Ethan asked to prepare your breakfast." Then, he handed Cindy a delicate Bento. Mr. Ethan? Wasn''t he the conceited Ethan who had fooled her around? Cindy curled her lips. Cindy took the breakfast from the driver and threw it into the trash can at the door. She pped her hands and turned to the driver with a sneer. "Please go back and tell Mr. Ethan that I thank him for taking care of me." Then she raised her head and walked into the hospital. Let Ethan go to hell. From now on, have a good life. I''ll take my time. In the study on the two floor. With a ss of red wine in his hand, Ethan stood in front of the window, staring at the twinkling stars in the dark sky outside, frowning. Leon stood at the door of the study, looking more anxious than Ethan. "Mr. Ethan, it''s time to go downstairs. The Old Mrs. Huo is anxious." There was no response. Hiding was not a solution. Ethan raised his head and drank up the wine in his ss. He put the ss heavily on the table, picked up the coat on the back of the chair and put it on. Then he walked out of the room. As soon as Ethan walked out of the study, he heard a noise downstairs. He went down the stairs. The hall of the Huo family downstairs was now full of guests, with their clothes and temples fragrant. The celebrities in business and political circles in J City were gathered, and there were even several famous entertainment stars. Men and women were all dressed up and greeted each other with business cards. The appearance of Ethan immediately attracted everyone''s attention. Sitting in the middle of the hall, Old Mrs. Huo saw Ethaning down the stairs and waved at him. N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content. "Ethan,e here." "I''m sorry, everyone. I was dyed by something just now." Ethan nodded slightly and walked slowly towards Old Mrs. Huo. "Ethan." Hardly had her voice faded away when a figure walked up to Ethan and held his hand. Her long curly hair, fair and smooth skin, her beautiful eyes and sexy lips were painted with ayer of bright red spring. She wore a long champagne colored dress, which entuated her curvaceous figure. Her slender waist was well shaped. Her hot and eye-catching figure was enough to make all the men present burst out blood. Her delicate make-up and delicate features made her look pure and gentle. A diamond encrusted ribbon on her curly hair set off her elegant and demure temperament. She was such a perfectbination of sexy and demure. Standing next to the handsome Ethan, she was a perfect match. The two immediately became the focus of the crowd. Everyone stopped talking. Sitting next to them, Old Mrs. Huo''s eyes were full of smile. Looking at the attractive couple, she nodded repeatedly. Recently, a popr female star was wearing a red backless dress, which was very coquettish. She snorted and pursed her red lips. "Who is this woman?" "You don''t even know Joana Mu. But it''s no wonder that the daughter of the Mu family has studied abroad for many years. I heard that she just came back, so it''s normal that you doesn''t know her." A man with a ss of wine came up to her. "Okay." The female star raised her ss and smiled at the man, but her eyes continued to look at the focus. "Joana." Ethan frowned and moved aside. Apparently, he didn''t like the enthusiasm of Joana Mu. Then he nodded at her and walked towards Old Mrs. Huo. "Ha ha, it seems that Miss Mu is not weed either." Seeing this, the female star giggled. Ethan frowned. Although he dodged lightly, the female star could tell what was on Ethan''s mind with a nce, as she had seen a lot of people. "Who says she is unwee? The reason why the guests at the Huo family''s banquet today was for her. Don''t you know that Ethan and Joana had been engaged since childhood, which was personally promised by Old Mrs. Huo. No matter how reluctant Mr. Ethan is, he doesn''t dare to say no." Hearing this, the man next to her giggled and got closer. The star in front of him looked more coquettish than in the movie. The man was itchy and always wanted to get close to her. The female star sneered in her heart, put down the ss, turned around and walked out. As soon as Ethan walked up to Old Mrs. Huo, Joana turned around like a gust of wind and rushed in front of Ethan, acting like a spoiled child with Old Mrs. Huo. "Grandma, look at Brother Ethan. I have been abroad for so many years. It''s not easy for me toe back. He is still so cold." "Don''t mess around, Joana." Old Mr. Mu said. Then he turned to Old Mrs. Huo and said with a smile, "Old Mrs. Huo, don''t me her. It''s all my fault. Over the years, Joana has been used to living abroad alone and spoiled by her mother." "Not at all. I like Joana being like this in front of me. It was normal for a girl to act like a spoiled child. Besides, it''s really hard to go to school alone for so many years." Old Mrs. Huo said with a smile. Seeing that someone was backing her up, Joana looked up at Old Mr. Mu with more imposing manner. "That''s right, Dad. You are always teaching me. Grandma loves me. Grandma is the best." Then she bent down, put her arms around Old Mrs. Huo''s neck and shook her a few times. Old Mrs. Huo was even happier. She patted the back of Joana''s hand and smiled. "Well, Joana, my bones are almost broken by you." "Hahaha!" The guests standing next to Old Mrs. Huo also burst intoughter. "Ethan, Joana just came back. No one knows her. Take her to say hello to everyone." Old Mrs. Huo''s order made Joana more than happy. When she grew up with Ethan, Joana had already known that the two families had arranged a marriage for her and Ethan. They would get married on a date when they grew up. Although the marriage was not mentioned clearly, all the people who came here today were the upper ss of J City. What Old Mrs. Huo did was clearly to announce the rtionship between her and Ethan to the whole J City. "Grandma." Ethan still looked cold and frowned. "Let''s go, Brother Ethan. Grandma said we should listen to her." Joana stepped forward and held Ethan''s arm. She didn''t want to miss today''s opportunity. Chapter 38 An Unspoken Secret Chapter 38 An Unspoken Secret He couldn''t disappoint Old Mrs. Huo in public. Reluctantly as Ethan was, he had no choice but to let Joana hold his arm and walk towards the middle of the hall. "Mr. Ethan." "Miss Mu." The two of them nodded and greeted everyone along the way. An attendant came over with a tray of wine in his hand. Ethan stopped him and picked up one. The ss was filled with champagne, which rippled in the crystal light of the hall. "Please be quiet." Ethan walked to the middle of the hall, picked up his ss and gave a hint to the crowd. Although the voice was low, it was very prating. The cold sound of Ethan instantly made the whole ce quiet. He smiled. "This is the eldest daughter of the Mu family, Joana Mu. She just came back from abroad. Please support her more." Then he raised the ss in his hand. Everyone raised their sses. "Miss Mu has an outstanding temperament. You and Mr. Huo are a perfect match." "Yes, yes." The sound of ttery rose one after another in the hall. Ethan''s short sentence did not reveal the rtionship between him and Joana. However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell from the way he introduced her in front of the crowd that Joana would be the future Mrs. Huo of the Huo family in the future. Ethan didn''t respond. His angr features were still strong and cold, and a cold air could be seen on his frosty face. However, at this moment, Joana was overjoyed and kept nodding to express her thanks. "Thank you, everyone." Since childhood, she and Ethan had known that the two of them were different from others. Ethan were the second sons of the Huo group. In the future, she would marry him to be the second Mrs. Huo of the Huo family. However, it seemed that Ethan had been cold to her since childhood. But today, Old Mrs. Huo''s arrangement was equivalent to announcing the rtionship between the two in front of the whole J City. In fact, the Mu family was powerful in J City, but it was still inferior to the Huo Group, the leading The Huo family was not good at foreign trade, and the Mu family was doing well. So Old Mrs. Huo had a unique vision and the marriage with the Mu family was just for the future development of the Huo family. However, the most important thing for Old Mrs. Huo to marry the Mu family was the rtionship between the mayor of J city and Mu family. The cooperation between government and business had been an unspoken secret from ancient times. Of course, it was also one of the reasons why Joana was so considerate that Old Mrs. Huo liked her. Five years ago, Ethan and Cindy decided to love each other for the rest of their lives in the University, which Old Mrs. Huo would never allow. In order to develop the Huo''s Kingdom, she separated Cindy and Ethan. Now seeing Ethan and Joana a perfect couple, talented and beautiful, Old Mrs. Huo cheered for her decision five years ago. "Brother Ethan, why are you so unhappy? I''ve been to Ennd for so many years, but you haven''t Holding Ethan''s arms, Joana pouted and put her face close to him. Ethan turned his face aside and tried to pull his hand out, but his hand was grasped tightly by Joana. During the five years of secret training, Ethan hated being coerced the most. He frowned and was about to lose his temper. A well-dressed man came over and smiled at Ethan. "Mr. Huo, with the help of Miss Mu, the Huo Group is going to advance to next level. In the future, we have to rely on you." Ethan''s arm froze. "Mr. Mayor, you''re wee." Although he had just returned from the base and entered the Huo Huo Group, Ethan had already known that the man in front of him was the current mayor of J City. Noticing the change of Ethan, Joana was overjoyed. "Uncle, don''t be so formal with me. Brother Ethan is a family, isn''t he? ." She twisted her body and stamped her feet on the ground with her silver high-heeled shoes. She pouted and acted cute. "Ha ha, look at you, Joana. You haven''t married yet. Okay, okay. I won''t waste you more time. I''ll go say hello to Old Mrs. Huo. " After saying that, he left with a smile. Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org. "Brother Ethan, why don''t you help me?" Joana knew very well that the Huo family wanted to rely on the power of the mayor. The coquetry in front of Ethan was just a superficial skill. Joana was not as simple as she looked. Although she had been in Britain in the past few years, she knew everything about Ethan. Seeing the mayor go far away, Ethan quickly withdrew his hand. "Joana, Mr. Zhang of Lawrence Company is over there. I''m going to say hello." Before he finished speaking, he had gone far. "Brother Ethan, I..." When Joana opened her mouth and shouted, she found someone passing by, so she shut up immediately. With a smile on her face, she quickly returned to her normal self. A woman standing in a secluded corner curled her lips at the sight of this. Her cold eyes shed. She turned around and walked towards Ethan. It was a ck floor length evening dress, with several thin straps crossing at the back. The neckline in the front was very low, and a pair of soft breasts was about to emerge. The delicate makeup, ming red lips, and a pair of thin and high heels made her waist swaying and graceful, exceedingly fascinating. As soon as she stepped forward, a man came up to ost her. "Miss Wei, you are so beautiful today. I don''t think Miss Mu is as beautiful as you." "Really?" She opened her red lips and walked away. Humph. Who did she think she is? Celina snorted in her heart and left without stopping. From afar, Ethan seemed to have left the hall alone. He made up an excuse and finally got rid of Joana. Ethan breathed a sigh of relief and slowly walked out of the hall. Ethan had already known that Old Mrs. Huo had arranged a fiancee for him since he was a child. Moreover, he also knew that the eldest daughter of the Mu family was the most famousdy in J City, with good appearance and figure. The Mu family was rich. Marrying such a daughter from a famous family was beneficial to the development of the Huo Group. But somehow, Ethan felt something was wrong. Over the years, he deliberately kept a distance from Joana until he met Cindy. Cindy? The name stung Ethan''s heart. That night when he came back from the police station, he was challenged to his bottom line by Cindy. Ethan was so angry that he forced her. Several days had passed, and he got the news that the woman had been wandering around and borrowing money. He didn''t know what she wanted to do. Was she raising money to keep a distance from him? Thinking of this, Ethan frowned more tightly. "Ethan." Chapter 39 How Dare You Steal My Man Chapter 39 How Dare You Steal My Man A coquettish voice came. Without turning his head, Ethan knew it was Celina. "Ethan, are you too cruel? You know that I loves you with all my heart, but you were intimate with Miss Mu in public just now." Celina twisted her body and pressed herself against Ethan. The two balls on her chest were towering, deliberately rubbing against Ethan''s arm. Ethan stepped back. His face was as cold as ice. "Celina, behave yourself." "Oh, Ethan, you forgot that you promised to treat me Japanese cuisine in your office that day. I''ve been waiting for this meal for so many days, but I haven''t seen the chancee. Then I have toe to you shamelessly." Celina could see the disgust in Ethan''s eyes, but she didn''t care. As long as she could get Ethan, she could do anything. Just like five years ago. Ethan felt a little regretful. If he had known that this woman was so difficult to deal with, he shouldn''t have used her as an excuse to make Cindy angry in the Huo Group that day. "Maybe next time." Ethan said coldly and turned away. It was a rare opportunity for Celina to have and she wouldn''t let it go, not to mention that her n had just begun. In the hall, Joana was talking to Old Mrs. Huo absent-mindedly. She nced around and didn''t see Ethan anywhere. There were a lot of womening here today, all dressed like spirits, which made Joana''s heart beat fast. Ethan belonged to her. No one could take him away from her. Finally, she couldn''t help but ask Old Mrs. Huo for leave and left. "Grandma, I''ll be back soon." "A grown woman is not allowed to stay." Behind her, Old Mrs. Huo was joking with Old Mr. Mu. In the hall of the Huo family, people were talking andughing happily. Joana searched every corner of the hall, but didn''t see Ethan. Although she was worried, she still wore a smile on her face. ncing around, Joana saw a tall ck figure in the yard outside the window, which looked like Ethan. She walked out of the room. In contrast to the bustling hall, the yard was unusually quiet. The person whom Joana had seen just now was cut into a three-dimensional silhouette under the dim yellow streetmp. The outline carved like a de and a sword gave out cold air. It was Ethan Huo. A smile bloomed on Joana''s face. Before she could step out, the smile froze in an instant. A coquettish woman with a curvaceous figure was hanging on Ethan''s body. Her face was raised high, and her ming red lips were moving towards Ethan''s mouth. Shame on her. Joana cursed in her heart. "Brother Ethan." Her charming and lovely voice was iparably pure. Ethan turned around. "Brother Ethan, who is this sister? She is beautiful. Why don''t you introduce her to me?" As she spoke, Joana had moved to the front of the two people. She twisted her body and stood in the middle secretly, separating Celina from Ethan. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Celina was a little angry, but it was inconvenient for her to lose her temper. "Hello, I am Celina Wei." "Hello, Joana Mu." The two of them nodded and smiled at each other, but in the dark, they were surging. Each of them had already fought three hundred rounds in their hearts. The atmosphere was a little weird. Hearing Celina''s self-introduction, although there was a gentle and lovely smile on Joana''s face, Joana''s heart skipped a beat. ''Is this demonic monster really Celina Wei?'' The coquettish look on her face was disgusting. How dare she seduce Joana Mu''s man? "Mr. Ethan." Leon suddenly shed out. Leon came to him at this time with an anxious look on his face. Was there something wrong with Cindy? His heart sank. Ethan left the two women in the battle behind and walked over. "It seems that Brother Ethan has something to deal with. Let''s go inside." With a smug smile on her face, Joana turned around and left. In the darkness, the coldness in Celina''s eyes grew. It seemed that she had to find Old Mrs. Huo. "Say it." Ethan said in a low voice. Leon didn''t say anything and moved aside. In the darkness, a strong shadow shed out quickly. "Young master." His voice was deep and there was an ent that didn''t fit in with the people in J City. Ethan frowned. He actually came to J City in person? Something must have happened. Ethan hinted at Leon with his eyes and walked forward quickly. After turning several corners in the garden of the Huo''s Mansion, Ethan took the man to a secluded corner where there was an independent wooden house. Ethan pressed a few numbers on the password lock on the door and walked in. The strong man followed him. Seeing the two people enter the room, Leon quickly shed to the dark and looked around vigntly. "Young master." After entering the room, the strong man bowed respectfully to Ethan in a strange posture. This man was not tall, but he was very strong. His face was covered with beard. There was a curved moon tattoo on his left arm. It was not strange, but the tattoo was bright red, which looked very frightening. "What''s the matter?" Ethan sat on the chair and epted his salute. "Young master, we have found out that ck Fiend did take part in what happened to the Chairman. Besides, the ne crash of Princess Moon was not an ident, and I''m afraid that ck Fiend must have something to do with it. But as soon as our men got the news, they were killed. What''s more, our brothers have been killed one after another. The Chairman might not be able to hold on for long. It''s a matter of great importance. Yoda didn''t dare to make a decision without authorization, so I came to the Huo''s Mansion without permission." This person spoke very fast, as if he was afraid of being heard. Sitting in the middle of the room, Ethan''s face was livid and his eyebrows were knitted more and more tightly. His face darkened when he heard what happened to Princess Moon. Ethan didn''t say anything. That person seemed to be in a hurry. "Young master, now some people in the club are ready to make a move. The Chairman seems to be getting worse and worse these days. He asked me to send this secret letter to the young master in person." "I see. You go back first. Be careful with the Chairman and pay close attention to the movements of the ck Fiend." After giving some orders, Ethan stood up and took the envelope. There was a blood red moon seal in the sealed ce of the envelope. Suddenly, there was a rhythmic knock on the door. "Knock, knock, knock Knock, knock, knock." Ethan quickly put the envelope into his pocket. With a wink, the man quickly dodged and hid behind the door. When Ethan opened the door, Leon stood outside and said anxiously, "Mr. Ethan, it seems that the old Mrs. Huo has sent someone to look for you in the yard." "Got it. I''ll leave it to you. Do it neatly." Chapter 40 This Is Your Fate Chapter 40 This Is Your Fate Walking out of the cabin, Ethan slowed down his pace on purpose. Sure enough, there seemed to be faint ck shadows shing in the garden. After turning a path and walking to a ce with bright light, a small ck figure rolled over to Ethan. "Father." The soft voice of a child sounded crisp in the night. The corners of Ethan''s mouth moved upward, which was unique only in front of this little kid. "Pumpkin. It''s so dark outside. Why do youe out? There are so many delicious food in the room. Why don''t apany your grandma." His voice was full of love. "I don''t want to be inside. Dad, they are so strange. They are all holding wine sses and talking. Those aunts are so strange. Their clothes are full of holes, and even their backs are outside. They are ugly. Aren''t they cold?" Hearing Pumpkin''s words, Ethan''s smile deepened. He picked Pumpkin up. Only an innocent child could say such sweet words. "I think my mother is more beautiful." All of a sudden, Pumpkin uttered these words, with a thoughtful look on his face. Ethan was confused by his words. "Your mother?" "Yes, father. You said my mother went abroad. She is back now, isn''t she? Why didn''t you tell me? Humph. You are a bad dad. I won''t talk to you anymore." The excitement in the beginning faded away, and Pumpkin was angry with Ethan. "Are you angry?" Ethan leaned over and teased him. Pumpkin turned his face aside and pouted. Ethan smiled in his heart. It must be Old Mrs. Huo. She must be kidding in front of Pumpkin when she saw that Joanae back and wanted them to get married as soon as possible. However, Pumpkin was the only descendant of his brother. Ethan couldn''t let him be wronged. "Pumpkin, do you like your mother?" "Yes, I like it. Pumpkin likes Mommy very much. She is so beautiful with a red face." Thinking of Cindy, Pumpkin felt excited and his face lit up. Even his ck eyes lit up. Ethan only said it was Joana, but he was still surprised. He had just gone out for a short time, but when did Joana win this little guy''s heart? However, what Pumpkin said next made him even more surprised. "Dad, take me to mom. I haven''t seen mom for a long time. I miss her." Pumpkin raised his head and looked at Ethan seriously. Looking for his mother? Miss her? Haven''t seen? Ethan was messed up by Pumpkin. ''Is he sick? He touched Pumpkin''s forehead. Nothing unusual? "Mr. Will,e down. Look at your shoes. Your father''s clothes are dirty." Lily ran all the way here and shouted from afar. Pumpkin didn''t respond. Instead, he wriggled in Ethan''s arms andined. He kept asking Ethan to take him to his mother. Lily ran over and took Ethan from Pumpkin. "Mr. Ethan, let me do it." "Lily, call Dr. Ye and ask him to check if Pumpkin is sick or not. He is talking nonsense." "No, no, I don''t want Doctor Ye. I want my mother." Pumpkin shouted, shaking his head like a rattle drum. Every time Dr. Ye came to see him, something bad would happen. Although he was young, he remembered it clearly. Lily coaxed Pumpkin and smiled at Ethan, "it doesn''t matter. Since he met Miss Cindy that day, Mr. Will has been like this for the past few days. He''s been asking for mom." Miss Cindy? Noticing the confusion in Ethan''s eyes, Lily told Ethan everything that Pumpkin saw Cindy that morning. Why does it have something to do with Cindy again? It seemed that they were destined to be together. Suddenly, Ethan was overjoyed. Cindy, you can''t escape. This is your fate. "Pumpkin, do you really miss your mother?" An imperceptible sly smile shed across Ethan''s lips. "Okay." Will nodded heavily and replied loudly. "Okay. Now go back with Lily. Be a good boy. Daddy will take you to see Mommy tomorrow, okay?" Then he touched Pumpkin''s chubby face. It worked better than anything else. As soon as Ethan finished his words, Pumpkin immediately covered his mouth with his hands. Seeing that, both Ethan and Lily couldn''t helpughing. The hall of the Huo family was still lively. Stepping into it, Ethan seemed to have entered another world. "Ring, ring, ring..." The clear rm clock rang especially abruptly in the quiet morning. Cindyy on the bed and pressed the rm clock. She was too tired these days. She wanted to sleep a little longer. In a daze, Cindy suddenly woke up. Eight o''clock? With sleepy eyes, she looked up at the number on the rm clock and jumped out of bed. Damn!! Today was the morning shift. The doctors should make the rounds of the wards at half past eight. ''Oh my God! If I amte, my bonus will be gone.'' After washing up, she grabbed her backpack and went out. Just then, a taxi came. Cindy waved her hand. Before the car stopped, Cindy got into it. "Master, the No.2 People''s Hospital. I''m in a hurry." Sitting in the back seat, Cindy told the driver the address in a hurry. The taxi sped along the way to the hospital. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Sweat trickled down Cindy''s forehead. When she ran to her office, the clock on the nursing station had just reached half past eight. Cindy smiled at Head Nurse, out of breath. "I''m notte, am I?" "How can you joke like that?" The Head Nurse turned her head to look at the clock. She couldn''t help but smile when she saw Cindy. "Then I''m going to change my clothes." Cindy held the table in the nursing station, out of breath. Lena just came from the dressing room and was surprised to see Cindy. "Sister Cindy, what''s wrong with you?" Cindy was too tired to say anything. She just shook her hand. "Look at her, Head Nurse." Lena and Head Nurse looked at each other and smiled. At this time, Cindy''s phone rang. "Sister Cindy, is it time for you to change your ringtone. Who else uses it now?" Lena teased and began to work. Cindy was stunned. The ringtone was chosen by Ethan. Cindy had been using it for a long time and had been used to it, so she didn''t notice anything wrong. "Cindy, what are you thinking about? Answer it quickly." The Head Nurse''s words interrupted Cindy''s thoughts. She quickly took out her phone. "Hello?" Chapter 41 He Is A Devil Chapter 41 He Is A Devil "Mommy!" A tender voice came from the other end of the phone, soft and delicate, which could make people smile. "Kid, I''m not your mother. You called the wrong number." This kid was really a troublemaker. There were still a lot of things waiting for her in the early morning. "Cindy." When she was about to hang up the phone, Cindy was shocked by the voice from the other end of the phone. Somehow, she picked up the phone and put it close to her ear. "Listen, Cindy, Pumpkin wants to see you. We are at the gate of the hospital. You''d bettere out and give you five minutes. Otherwise, I will take Bowen to find you directly. " [ ]''s words were an order, and there was no room for negotiation between [ ] and him. "I dududu..." Cindy said a word and the person on the other end hung up the phone. There was a busy tone on the C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org. phone. Damn Ethan. He was always so self-righteous and never considered other people''s feelings. Now that she had gone to work and had no time to change her clothes, Ethan asked her to go out. After thinking for a while, Cindy leaned her head close to Head Nurse and whispered, "I ran in a hurry today and haven''t had breakfast yet. I have a stomachache now. Can I ask for a leave to have breakfast?" As she spoke, Cindy covered her stomach with her hand. It seemed that she was really hungry. "Go ahead. Hurry up. You know the busiest thing in our department is this morning." "Thank you, Head Nurse." After expressing her thanks to the Head Nurse, Cindy rushed to the gate of the hospital again. This was the northernmost part of the hospital, and the gate of the hospital was in the south. It was equivalent to passing through the hospital. Five Minutes? [ ] was really a demon. [ ] cursed [ ] in her heart, but she didn''t dare to dy. That devil, Cindy had already known how powerful he was. There was use arguing with Ethan. He could only give orders and obey them. Others should absolutely obey him. The cold way was as hard asing out of the Iron Army. Cindy finally ran to the gate of the hospital and saw Ethan''s car parking on the roadside from a distance. "Ethan Huo." Cindy held the car window and breathed heavily. "Good." The car window was rolled down, and Ethan''s cold face appeared in front of Cindy. In the back seat of the car, a handsome boy with curly hair shouted happily when he saw Cindy outside the car, "Mommy." Cindy was stunned. What a familiar voice. "Mommy, Mommy!" The little boy was so excited that he opened the door, jumped out, held Cindy''s leg, raised his face and kept shouting. "Pumpkin? Oh, no, it''s Will Huo?" Seeing his ck curly hair and Ethan''s features, Cindy suddenly remembered. "Will, I''ve told you the other day that I''m not your mother. Why did youe here?" "You are my mother. Yesterday, my father said that as long as I listen to Lily, he would take me to see you. Mom, you''vee back from abroad. Why don''t you go home? Pumpkin misses you so much." The babbling of Pumpkin made Ethan feel familiar. It seemed that the woman had been running all the way here. Her forehead was covered with thin beads of sweat, and her face was flushed. However, it looked more charming. She was not delicate or pretentious, so clean and good. Ethan squinted at Cindy. "Ethan, how can you take his words seriously? He misses his mother so much. As a father, shouldn''t you take him to see your wife?" Looking at Ethan''s eyes, Cindy felt disgusted. However, speaking of Ethan''s wife, Cindy felt that the two words were like thorns in her throat. What kind of thing was this? He had a child with someone else, but he had to bring the child here to call her mother. Cindy was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly. Her body trembled slightly, and the mist in her eyes quickly spread, making her unable to see Ethan clearly. "Ethan Huo, are you humiliating me or showing off? Let''s see how capable you are, Ethan. Can you let several women give birth to children for you at the same time?" Cindy''s anger was so obvious, and Ethan was confused. "Miss Cindy, you misunderstood, Mr. Ethan..." Ethan cast a cold nce at Leon, which made him stop talking. "Tell me, Ethan. I''d like to see if there is any misunderstanding." Tears streamed down Cindy''s face and she cried at Ethan. Pumpkin was frightened by her scarlet eyes. He tugged at the corner of Cindy''s clothes and called timidly, "Mommy." "I''m not your mother. If you want mommy, go find your daddy." At this moment, Cindy''s mind was filled with anger. Pumpkin''s words made Cindy more furious. After throwing a roar, Cindy turned around and left. Ethan Huo, go to hell. When I get enough medical fees, I will never be bullied like this again. "Mommy!" Pumpkin''s crying stopped Cindy. It''s someone else''s child. It''s none of my business. Cindy, who had already stopped, shook her head and continued to move forward. The cry suddenly stopped. Pumpkin asked timidly, "Mommy. Don''t you want me?" His words hit Cindy''s heart hard. Would the child in the heaven think the same? Step by step, Cindy walked more and more slowly, but in the end, she really couldn''t walk out. She turned around. Not far away, the little person stood there, looking so lovely. s. Cindy sighed. She squatted down and stretched out her arms to Pumpkin. "Pumpkin,e here." The baby was innocent. At this moment, Cindy''s heart was soft and maternal. Pumpkin smiled through tears and rushed towards Cindy. In Cindy''s arms, Pumpkin whispered in her ear, "Mommy." Cindy didn''t care whose child he was right now. At the gate of the hospital, Cindy bathed in the morning sun with Pumpkin in her arms. What a harmonious scene. In the ck Bentley, a warm smile appeared on Ethan''s face. "Drive!" "Mr. Ethan, how about Mr. Will ?" Obviously, Leon was confused by Ethan''s order. However, Ethan didn''t say a word. Leon had no choice but to obey his orders. The car roared and drove away. When the car passed the gate of the hospital, Ethan looked at Cindy, who was holding Pumpkin, thoughtfully. Cindy didn''t notice that the Bentley had left. She took out a tissue from her pocket and wiped Pumpkin''s tears slowly. "Pumpkin, why do you want to see me?" Pumpkin didn''t say anything for a long time because he had cried too much just now. He just kept sobbing. Just then, the phone rang, and the words "Ethan Huo" flickered. Chapter 42 Mission Completed Chapter 42 Mission Completed It was Ethan. "I have asked for leave for you. Pumpkin likes you so much. Your job today is to apany him well." His voice was cold and emotionless. Ask for leave? Why did she ask for leave? Cindy was still in a daze. "Ethan, what did you say?" "DUDUDU..." Damn it, Ethan didn''t give Cindy a chance to ask. The busy tone on the phone was the answer of Ethan. Cindy was so angry that she wanted to throw the phone on the ground and step on it again. Ethan, who the hell are you? Ask for leave for me? Huh For what?. There was still a week left before the end of the month. Just now, in order to rush to work, she specially took a taxi here for the full attendance bonus of this month. If Ethan did this, all her efforts would be in vain. She clenched her fists. The edges of the phone made her palms hurt, but Cindy still exerted all her strength. Cindy''s anger was on the verge of breaking out, and Pumpkin beside her was uneasy. He gently pulled Cindy''s little finger. "Mommy!" "I''m not your mother." Anger burst out in her heart, and Cindy shook her hand hard. Cindy threw Pumpkin away with great force. "AH!" Cindy turned her head, Pumpkin lying on the ground and burst into tears. The cry sobered her up instantly. She squatted down and picked Pumpkin up. What''s wrong with the baby? Cindy could feel that the baby in her arms was really sad with his little body twitched with crying. Feeling sorry for him, Cindy patted him on the back andforted him softly. "Pumpkin, I''m sorry. It was my fault. Stop crying now." After a long time, Pumpkin straightened up and sobbed, with a very serious expression on his little face. "Uh My name is Will Huo, eh... " His words calmed Cindy down. This child had a magic that could control her emotions. "Will Huo, what should we do now? Your annoying father threw you to me. I have to go to work. How about I call Lily and ask her to pick you up?" "No, mom. I heard it just now. You said you asked for leave. Please take me to the amusement park. I haven''t been there for a long time, and there is a zoo." Tears were still hanging on his face, but the smile spread. There was a hint of cunning in Pumpkin''s bright eyes, which was a replica of Ethan. It seemed that she couldn''t get rid of this stalker. If she really took him to work and called him mom, Cindy couldn''t exin herself. The previous rumors had just subsided a little, and Cindy didn''t want to have any more rumors about her. "Okay." Cindy agreed reluctantly. At the worst, she could take the time to calcte the medical fees with Ethan and get back what she had lost today. Thinking of this, Cindy snorted in her heart and smiled. Seeing this, Pumpkin kissed on Cindy''s face again. His snot and tears made Cindy look terrible. "Will Huo." Cindy shouted, gritting her teeth. What the hell was going on? Ethan and someone else''s sons even called her mother behind her buttocks, and he was so close to her. "Mommy, what''s wrong?" The little guy looked at her innocently. No matter how angry Cindy was, she had to suppress her anger. Helpless. "Let''s go. The amusement park and the zoo. I''ll be a mother today. I''ll ask your devil father for the sry." "Haha, let''s go." Pumpkin immediately slipped down from Cindy and was so happy that he almost tumbled over on the spot. Thest trace of setting sun in the sky gradually disappeared, and the night fell. When the lights were on, it was already dark. There were many people sitting in the coffee shop. Cindy rubbed her shoulders and waist, feeling tired. She really was no longer young. She was so tired after moving a few times. As soon as the idea came to her mind, Cindy couldn''t help but burst intoughter. Pumpkin was putting a spoon of ice cream into his mouth. Hearing Cindy''sughter, he raised his head and looked confused. "Mommy, what are youughing at?" "Nothing. Nothing. Will, hurry up. I called your father just now and he will pick you up soon." Cindy smiled. Seeing that Pumpkin''s mouth was stained with ice cream, she quickly took a piece of tissue and gently wiped it for him. The next second, Pumpkin burst into tears. "What''s wrong?" Cindy thought she had hurt Pumpkin, so she withdrew her hand immediately. "Mommy, you are so bad. You left after giving birth to Pumpkin, which made Pumpkin lose his mother. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. It took you so long toe back. Boo... Hoo... " Tears streamed down Pumpkin''s face like a flood gate. All the people in the cafe turned their heads to look at them. Perhaps it was because Cindy wiped his mouth just now that he felt so aggrieved without his mother for so many years. Oh my God, is this child born to have enmity with me? Did he want to tell everyone that she, Cindy, was an irresponsible mother by shouting in front of everyone. Noticing the disdain in other''s eyes, Cindy quickly lowered her head and pretended to drink the milk tea with a straw. She wished there was a hole in front of her so that she could drill in. She was asking for trouble. Cindy began to regret what she did just now. "Will, if you keep talking nonsense, I won''t talk to you anymore." Her voice was very low. She didn''t know how they would think of her if others heard her words. All of a sudden, a pair of shiny ck leather shoes appeared on the wooden floor. Then, a cold ridicule sounded over Cindy''s head, "Pumpkin didn''t say anything wrong." Cindy trembled and raised her head slowly. It was Ethan. "Dad." Pumpkin''s clear voice attracted everyone''s attention in the shop. The man was tall and slender, strong but not rough. His dashing eyebrows were nted into his temples, and his ck eyes were as deep as the eagle''s. His features were strong. His thin lips were slightly pursed, and the corners of his lips were raised. He looked somewhat evil and handsome, making people ignore his coldness. Such a man was really created by God. "Ethan, you are here. I havepleted my task." Cindy] was on pins and needles at the sight of the crowd. She quickly stood up and said something, trying to escape. Ethan grabbed Cindy''s arm. "Wait!" "Ethan, let go of me. There are so many people watching us." Cindy was anxious. In the eyes of everyone, she was already an irresponsible mother. If Ethan did something more, she would be humiliated if she stayed here today. Chapter 43 The Privilege Of Being Alone Chapter 43 The Privilege Of Being Alone Her face turned red, and the tip of her nose had been soaked with fine sweat. Under the light, her face was glittering slightly. She bit her lips gently, looking delicate and lovely. This woman could always provoke every nerve of him unconsciously. "Dad, I''m done. Let''s take mom home." Hearing the soft voice, Ethan instantly looked back. Pumpkin was wiping his mouth with a tissue and looking at Ethan with a smile. Apparently, Pumpkin was very satisfied with the ice-cream he had just finished. "Okay, let''s go." He bent down to pick up Pumpkin and walked out with his long legs. The man was handsome and the woman was gentle. In addition, the doll-like little boy had curly hair, white and tender skin, and three-dimensional features This family was so handsome that they attracted much admiration on the way. Ethan nced at the crowd coldly. All the praises in the eyes of the crowd were gone. For a moment, he had a feeling that it was true. It seemed that Bowen was the son of him and Cindy. They were a real family. Cindy lowered her head and followed them. A woman who abandoned her son and was selfish might be thement on her in the eyes of these people. "Bang!" Cindy lowered her head to think carefully and bumped into Ethan. Ethan turned around with an angry face. "You can even bump into others while walking. You are really something." "Why did you walk so slowly?" Cindy quibbled in a low voice and quickly walked around. How could she tell Ethan what she was thinking? "Dad, don''t be mad at mom. Otherwise, I won''t talk to you anymore." Before Ethan opened his mouth, Pumpkin suddenly stood up and pinched Ethan''s face hard. "I..." Ethan was stunned. When did this child be the spokesperson of that woman? Seeing this, Cindy chuckled. Finally, someone was defending her. Seeing the smile on her face, Pumpkin was very happy. He said sarcastically, "Mommy, you don''t have to call my name in the future. I like you to call me Pumpkin. I only allow you to call me Pumpkin." He looked extremely serious. "Oh, didn''t you say that you don''t like others to call you Pumpkin?" Cindy felt a little strange. From the first day she saw the child, he had emphasized that his name was Will Huo for countless times. He thought the name Pumpkin was too childish. Pumpkin smiled. "Yes. But you are different from them. You are my mommy." Pumpkin''s words moved Ethan. This guy is so ungrateful, isn''t he? Even Old Mrs. Huo didn''t have the right to do that at home. Except for Ethan, whoever called him Pumpkin, he would definitely pout to protest. It was a well-known fact in Huo''s Mansion. When they were free, they would always call him "Pumpkin" and y with him. Moreover, sometimes, Old Mrs. Huo even joked with Ethan that Pumpkin was the son that his brother sent him and was born to be close to him. They had only yed for one day, and the thing that had persisted for so long at home copsed in front of Cindy. It seemed that there was a magic that made Cindy and Pumpkin feel close to each other innately. When they walked out of the cafe, a familiar Bentley parked on the roadside. The door was opened. Ethan put Pumpkin on the back seat and turned to look at Cindy. "Get in the car." "Well, I have something else to do." Cindy turned around and was about to leave. Cindy had mixed feelings when Pumpkin was born when she was pregnant. For the sake of Ethan, the Cheng family had broken up. All of this was a joke in the end. Such a man was not worth it. From that day on, Cindy swore to herself that she would never have anything to do with Ethan Huo again. "Stop!" Ethan shouted coldly. "Mom, let''s go home together." In the car, Pumpkin called Cindy in a soft voice. Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. She took a deep breath and turned around. Cindy had changed into a gentle smile. "Will, listen to me. I have something else to do. Go home by yourself." "Mommy!" Disappointed, Pumpkin''s face darkened at this moment. Ethan stepped forward, pulled Cindy into the car, and put her between him and Pumpkin. There was no way out. Cindy turned around and red at Ethan. His maic voice was full of coldness. "I just saw you apany Pumpkin the whole day, so I took you along." "I don''t need your kindness. I still have the money to take a taxi." Cindy retorted. This woman was as eloquent as before. An unnoticeable smile shed through Ethan''s eyes. "Drive." Cindy shut her mouth. After several fights, Ethan had changed. In front of him, Cindy''s opinion was like a dandelion in autumn. As the wind blew, it dissipated without leaving a trace. When the two were arguing, Pumpkin seemed to feel something wrong. He pursed his lips and dared not speak. There was a moment of silence in the car. As the car went on, Pumpkin shook his head on Cindy''s arm. Pumpkin had a good time during the day, so he must be tired now. Pumpkin leaned his head against Cindy, and his eyes were blurred. He was about to fall asleep. She couldn''t bear it. Cindy turned around and held Pumpkin in her arms. "Mommy!" In a daze, Pumpkin put his arms around her neck and called in Cindy''s ear. The thin and soft voice of a child suddenly came,. What the child had just said in the cafe was heartbreaking. He hadn''t seen his mother since he was born. Ethan was really a bastard. He abandoned women all the time and sowed everywhere. The child was the one who suffered. Somehow, Cindy felt sorry for Pumpkin in his arms. She held Pumpkin tightly in her arms for fear that he would disappear. Just like that child. Tears welled up in her eyes, and the street lights outside the window began to blur. Cindy raised her head and straightened her back. She didn''t want the man beside her to see her embarrassment. She had her pride. Ethan pursed his thin lips and looked ahead indifferently. He noticed the subtle change of Cindy from side sight. He didn''t know why this woman suddenly became a hedgehog. She shook off her armor and was ready to fight at any time. The car stopped at the gate of the Huo''s Mansion. Ethan took the sleeping Pumpkin from Cindy. "Send her back." He said coldly. Then he picked up Pumpkin and strode towards Huo''s Mansion. Well, it''s so normal of him to burn the bridge after crossing it. She wanted to go back by herself, but Cindy gave up the idea when she saw the dark outside. Anyway, she had been a mother for the whole day. It was not a big deal for him to send her back. The engine started, and the Bentley sped out and disappeared in the night. The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
