Chapter 26 Lily didn't pull her hand away, allowing Loid to hold it.

No one said another word for the rest of the journey. An hour later, the car pulled up to the hospital in the city center.

Lily had just reached her grandmother's ward when she heard angry shouts coming from inside. “Belinda, you're a teacher, for heaven's sake. With all your experience teaching countless students, how could you raise Lily to be like this?" It was Susan's voice.

Lily's eyes narrowed in an instant, a shiver running down her spine. Loid's expression also turned cold, his deep eyes gleaming with a piercing intensity.

"What's wrong w with Lily? Belinda's voice was weak, punctuated by a few coughs as she spoke.

"How dare you ask what's wrong? Ever since she cback to the Martinez family, she's been nothing but rude. I suppose you can't expect much from a country bumpkin in terms of manners but how dare she treat shannon like a servant? "Who does she think she is? How dare she boss around my daughter?" Susm's face twisted in rage. Her demeanor was far from that of a dignified lady.

Belinda's face was pale. "But Lily is also your daughter," she pleaded Susan scoffed coldly. "Hmph! She's just a daughter I no longer want." "How can you say that? Belinda's voice trembled with emotion. "She's still the child you carried for ten months. How can you be so cruel?" "What about her? I never wanted her, so she's not truly my daughter. Having her replace Shannon in marriage was the only reason I brought her back. If she were half as good as Shannon, maybe I could find a way to accept her.

"But she failed every single exam, and her specialties are fighting and skipping class. She's arrogant and disrespectful, just like a typical delinquent. I'm doing her a favor by marrying her off" Belinda slammed her hand on the table, her voice rising in anger. "Shut up! Lily is not as worthless as you make her out to be. She's exceptional, more than you could ever imagine.

Susan let out a burst of laughter, her voice laced with scorn. "Her? Exceptional? Only you would see that in ber.

"Alright, I'll cut to the chase. The Martinez family has decided that she's no longer required to proceed with the arranged marriage. However, since the engagement ceremony has already taken place, she's still considered Loid's fiancée "It would be inappropriate for us to unilaterally break off the engagement. I suggest you have Lily explain the situation to Loid personally, I'll then immediately arrange for your departure." Susan reached into her bag and pulled out a stack of bills. “Till give you a hundred thousand dollars if you get this done S~Earch the Find_Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Susan paused, then let out a cold laugh. "To be honest, I think you should just give upon treatment. The doctor mentioned there's no cure for your condition. The only thing you can do is manage it with medication.

"But considering your financial situation, even affording medication is a struggle. So, I think it's best if you just give up." The moment Susan finished speaking, the door to the ward was locked open with a loud bang. Shaun burst in, his features twisted with rage. He forcefully kicked at Susan, causing her to fall to the floor. His veins bulged on his forehead as he snarled "I've witnessed much in my life, but never have I encountered a mother as vicious as you! You don't deserve to be called human!" was fuming. He had been eavesdropping outside the door for half an hour with his teeth clenched in anger, so be didn't go in.

Lily and Loid remained still. However, when Shaun later heard Susan asking Lily's grandmother to give up on her treatment, he couldn't take it anymore and kicked the door open Shaun's forceful kick sent Susan sprawling against the wall, Wincing in pain, she lifted her head to see Shaun's fuming face. Behind him stood Lily, Daniel, and another unfamiliar man whom she had never met.

Everyone's faces were etched with worry, their expressions grim. Susan tried to salvage the situation. Despite the throbbing pain in her body, she frantically explained, "Shaun, it's not what you think. Please, letexplain." Shaun sneered, "Explain? Explain it to Loid." Loid remained silent, his gaze fixed on Lily.

As soon as Lily entered the ward, she rushed to Belinda's bedside.

Belinda's emotional distress had caused the poison to surge through her system, malding it difficult for her to breathe, Without any hesitation, Lily retrieved a pill from her poich

As Belinda's condition stabilized, Lily stood and walked slowly toward Susan. Her exquisite beauty tumed e cold as most as she said, "Do you think that by taking care of my grandmother, you can manipulate meal will X
