Chapter 14 Meeting on the Road
Amara sneered when she saw Elena leave. “You definitely can’t explain it clearly!” She knew that Elena did not dare to not listen to her.
After leaving the coffee shop, Amara took out her phone and called Jonathan.
“Dad, Elena has already agreed to go and find Grandfather to admit her mistake.”
“Really?” Jonathan was a little surprised. Although Elena had been bullied by them, she was very stubborn. He thought it would take some effort to get her to agree.
“Of course it’s true. Dad, don’t worry. There are hospital matters to be used as bargaining chips. We are not afraid that she won’t listen to us!”
When her grandfather returned, she just had to push all the responsibility to Elena, say that she came to provoke them at home, and even instigate Ryan to blow up the door. Then they wouldn’t have to take any responsibility for this matter.
“Okay.” Jonathan nodded his head repeatedly.
Elena’s weakness was her mother. It seemed that the money he paid to save her mother’s life was not a loss. “You should be careful. Don’t push her too hard.”
“Dad, don’t worry. She won’t dare to resist us.” Amara was not worried about this at all.
“We still have to be careful. Your grandfather will be back soon. We can’t make any mistakes at this time.” As long as the old man retired, the entire Lewis family handed over to Jonathan. He couldn’t hide his excitement when he thought of this.
“There will be an auction tonight. Remember to look for Roman and let the reporters know that you went there with the young master of Monor family.”
The marriage between Monor family and Lewis family had been decided long ago. Although there was a marriage between Ryan and Elena, Elena was still a child who had been kicked out of the family, Ryan was a cripple for life, so not many people cared about them.
The only thing that could help the Lewis family was the marriage between Amara and Roman. No matter what, this matter had to be facilitated so that the Lewis family could obtain greater benefits.
“Don’t worry, Dad. Roman has already invited me to the charity auction tonight.”
The only thing that Amara could brag about right now was that she could be with Roman openly. Many people envied her because of this.
Elena did not return to the villa. She walked along the road for a long distance. Finally, she was tired and took a taxi to the hospital.
She handed the bank card that Ryan gave her to the director. Only then did she feel more at ease. It was like a rope that had been around her neck all the years around had finally broken.
She breathed in fresh air and felt much more relaxed.
“Elena, Lewis family has already paid your mother’s medical fees for you. And there is still a lot of balance left. You don’t have to pay in a hurry.”
Director Scott looked at her swollen but determined eyes and sighed in his heart, “What’s wrong? Have you been bullied?”
All these years, he watched Elena grew step by step. She was a girl in her prime. She should have had a beautiful youth, but she was almost crushed by her mother’s illness countless times.
Her thin shoulders had carried a lot of weight that others could not bear over the years.
“Director, I’m fine.” Elena shook her head and insisted on giving the bank card to the director, “If Lewis family threatens me again and wants to cut off my mother’s medical fees, you will use this bank card to pay for it.”
After hearing her words, Director Scott understood. The Lewis family must have threatened her again, which was why she cried so hard.
Instead of living her life in fear, she might as well not accept the charity from that family.
“Alright, I’ll accept this bank card. Don’t worry too much. It’s good that you don’t rely on Lewis family. At least you and your mother won’t have to swallow their anger anymore.”
“Director, thank you. Please take care of my mother. I’ll be going back.” After saying that, Elena turned back and left.
This time, she didn’t even take a look at the ward. Because she knew that if she saw her mother at this time, she would not be able to hold back her tears anymore. She did not want to cry in front of her mother.
Director Scott sighed and left with the bank card.
Elena walked forward with a dull look. She did not take a taxi. She also did not know how long it would take her to walk back like this.
In any case, she could not help but want to cry.
Unknowingly, it was already dark and a gust of cold wind blew over. Elena finally reacted. The surroundings were all unfamiliar and she did not know where she had walked to.
At 7. 30 pm, Ryan had already returned home. Elena hurriedly wanted to take a taxi and rush back.
At this time, Ryan’s car just passed by.
Xavier looked at the person in front of him. “Second Young Master, it seems to be the young madam.”
Ryan looked at the direction of Xavier was pointing. It was indeed Elena standing there, trembling.
“Sir, are we going to pick the young madam and get in the car?” Xavier asked.
“Stop the car!” Ryan’s voice was cold and eyebrows furrowed.
Why was this woman here?
Xavier stepped on the brakes and stopped the car. He walked out of the car.
“Madam, why are you here so late? Why don’t you go home?”
When Elena saw Xavier, she was slightly stunned. She did not expect to meet Xavier here. “Is Ryan in the car?”
Elena’s voice was little choked up, but she didn’t say why she was here. She didn’t want more people to know about the things she could solve, even if this was her husband.
Xavier suddenly felt that something was not right, but he didn’t continue to ask. “Young Master is inside. You can get in the car and I’ll send you and young master home.”
He opened the door for Elena.
Elena saw Ryan sitting on the other side of the car, and her eyes instantly turned red.
“Are you frozen? Hurry up and come up.” Ryan starched out his hand. His tone was extremely gentle and his words also carried a bit of heartache.
Elena wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes and placed her hand on Ryan’s hand.
Just by touching by her hand, Ryan felt that she must have blown away by cold wind for a long time.
Ryan frowned and said, “Xavier, turn on the heater.”
As he spoke he also placed Elena’s hand on his palm and rubbed it gently.
After Ryan did this, Elena could no longer hold back the grievances in her heart. She leaned on Ryan’s shoulder and cried.
