Everett was already in the bathroom, and Dorothy was still puzzling over what he had meant by his words.

It seemed like he didn't want to mingle with the middle school crowd and, moreover, he didn't like David.

During her business trip to Havenbrook City, she learned a lot from Kevin. Not only about due diligence but also about the art of communication.

After returning to Eldorria City, Dorothy had two days of special leave, but she spent all her time discussing Kenneth's project with Kevin.

Finally, after sorting out the project and submitting it, she was about to tidy up and go to the hospital to see her mother when Bella called.

"Mom." "You're back in Eldorria City, right?" There was something off about Bella's voice. There was a slight harshness.

"Yeah, I've finished handling company affairs and was just about to head to the hospital to see you." "Let's talk when you get here." With that, she hung up.

Looking at the dark screen of her phone, Dorothy began to worry that her father was bothering her mother again. After all, she had just returned and hadn't done anything to upset her mom.

She was just about to leave Bay Residence when she opened the door and saw Everett's car pulling up.

"Are you going to the hospital?" He guessed from the look on Dorothy's face as he got out of the car.

"Yeah, I've been away on business, so | want to check with the doctor about my mom's condition." "I'll go with you." "No need!" Dorothy reflexively refused, then realized her tone was a bit harsh and quickly added, "My mom doesn't like visitors.

it's not about you." Everett didn't push her, just nodded lightly, "Then let me give you a ride." Dorothy didn't refuse his kindness that time. After all, it was hard to get a cab from Bay Residence.

At the hospital.

She stood still and waved as Everett's car left, then turned and walked towards the hospital.

At the entrance to V1 ward, two tall bodyguards stood. People passing by always took a curious glance at them.

Dorothy walked in with the fruits she bought, and saw Bella on the hospital bed.

Her face was stern. She glanced at her daughter and said, "Come here." Without any guard, Dorothy closed the door and walked to the bedside. Before she could speak, Bella's slap hit her face hard.

The slap was so harsh that her fair face immediately showed red marks.

It was shocking.

"Mom..." "Do you know why I hit you?" Bella was so angry that she clenched her fists and her breathing became rapid. That was the first time she had ever laid a hand on her daughter.

Dorothy immediately thought of the message that woman had sent her.

"You're young and foolish, running after men to take advantage of you! Don't call me mom again. | don't have a shameless daughter like you!" Dorothy was stunned into silence.

Faced with her mother's accusations, she just covered her cheek, listening, but didn't retort.

"Hurry up and discharge me. I'm not waiting for any surgery here. I'd rather die than use this dirty money to prolong my life!" Bella's voice was loud, shaking Dorothy's ears. She didn't know if it was because of the slap or something else.

"The experts have already scheduled the surgery. It can't be canceled.” "Then let me die now!" Bella's emotions started to flare up again.

Dorothy ignored the pain on her cheek and quickly went over to hold her mother's hand.

"Mom, they told you, right? You should be very clear about their motives!" "I don't care who told me. Is it true that you're being kept by a man?" Her mother’s blunt questioning left Dorothy at a loss.

She didn't expect her affair with Everett to be discovered so quickly.

But she wanted her mother to live.

When did she ever have a choice? "Mom, it's not true."
