Chapter 23 You Still Have a Fiancee
Michael was very displeased when he heard Suzy’s impolite refusal and saw her cold expression.
As the eldest brother of the Carters family, Michael had always been decisive. Over the years, Suzy had always been obedient to him. But now, for some reason, she had become arrogant and rebellious.
“Suzy, what do you think you can do in the film industry? Don’t forget who the boss of this industry is.”
Earl, the largest film group, Dreaming Pictures in Somo City, was under his command.
Suzy smiled coldly and said, “Mr. Carters, don’t forget why Dreaming Pictures had made a success.”
It was because of the hottest TV drama that Suzy had put on.
Micheal’s expression froze slightly, and then he shot her a disdainful glance. “Suzy, don’t be so ungrateful. Do you think that if the Carters family teamed up, you would have survived today? Once we return to the Carters family, we promise that we’ll let bygones be bygones and that we’ll even be of help to Starlight Pictures’ development.”
Hearing Michael’s boasting, Suzy sneered again. She looked up and said casually, “Who do you think I borrowed the money from? Mr. Carters, your Carters family, does have a high status, but are you sure that your Carters family can dominate the Somo City?”
“Who’s lending a hand to you?” Earl’s face darkened.
“Guess?”
Suzy’s lips curled into a smile. After speaking, she left.
“Suzy, you will regret this!”
Michael’s voice came from behind, but Suzy ignored that.
Before Teresa came back, the Carters family had been very kind to her, but when Suzy thought about what had happened in her previous life…
Suzy detested the malicious actions taken by the Carters family. In this life, as long as the Carters family did not provoke her, she would not seek revenge. After all, many people would do so. However, if they wanted to attack her, she would naturally not resign herself to fate.
… Three days later, Suzy was discharged from the hospital. Nina came to pack up her things for her. Only then did Suzy know that the man who came to check on her every day was the director of this hospital.
Presumably, he was someone Evan knew. No wonder he looked at her so strangely every time they checked in.
“The hospital’s director, Ervin Chaplin, is very charming. He is only 24 years old but has taken command of a hospital. How amazing.”
Not long after, Ervin arrived. He held a bag in his hand and handed it to Suzy.
“This is scar-softening cream. Miss Carters, you can apply it after your wound scabs are removed.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Suzy received the medicine and handed it to Nina. Ervin, who was standing to the side, had yet to leave. He looked at Suzy and said with a conflicted expression, “Right, Miss Carters, I saw your report earlier. You are B-grade blood. Our hospital just received a new patient who urgently needs a blood transfusion. Your blood type matches perfectly. Can you…”
“No.”
Ervin was startled: Why so heartless?
He raised his eyes and met Suzy’s gaze, sizing him up, instantly feeling slightly guilty.
“Ervin, type B blood is the most common blood type. Didn’t any storage leave in such a big hospital? Are you going to take that out on a wounded patient like me?”
Ervin was a bit awkward.
Just then, the door opened, and Evan walked in.
Suzy immediately complained, “Ervin wants to draw my blood. I don’t know what he wants to do with that!”
Ervin: “…”
“So… What do you want?” Evan looked at Ervin.
“I’m not trying to do anything. It’s just a blood test. How could I harm Suzy?” Ervin looked at Suzy and explained, “Miss Carters, I read your blood test report yesterday. There’s something wrong with it. I want to test it again.”
“Ah? I see.”
Although Evan had helped her, Suzy didn’t like him very much. Naturally, she was suspicious of Evan’s friends…
“Okay, sorry, I misunderstood. Then take my blood.”
Suzy didn’t think too much about it. She guessed that there was some problem with the statistics. She sat on the sofa, watching Ervin take out the blood drawing tool. Her heart immediately tensed up.
Since Nina had the experience of accompanying Suzy for an IV drip, she was very discreet and voluntarily left the blood drawing scene.
On the other hand, Suzy smiled at Evan. “Can you get closer to me so I can feel safer?”
Evan asked, “Do you still need a sense of security when drawing blood?”
“It’s mainly because your handsome face can distract me.”
The corners of Evan’s mouth twitched, but Suzy’s words put him in a good mood. He took two more steps forward.
However, just as the needle was about to be stabbed into Suzy’s skin, it raised her nervousness. Then, she unconsciously grabbed Evan’s arm and pinched it hard.
“Suzy!” Evan’s angry voice rang out.
“Sorry, sorry.” Suzy hurriedly let go of him and switched to a sofa bolster.
Evan: “…”
Fortunately, Ervin didn’t need much blood, so he soon finished drawing it all. He looked at Suzy, who had been arrogant before drawing the blood, and now had a bitter expression on her face. Even the rims of her eyes were red.
Was it that painful?
Looking at Evan, it was the first time in his life that Ervin had seen him being bullied…
“Well, Miss Carters, I’ll show you the test result as soon as it comes out.”
“Yes, thank you,” Suzy said indifferently. Her voice sounded weak.
After resting for a few minutes, they left the ward, but Evan was left behind in the ward by Ervin.
“Someone must have poisoned Suzy’s body.”
Evan was stunned. “Poisoned?”
Ervin nodded. “I don’t know what poison it is until I test it out. But… I think it’s someone from the Carters family… these people are too heartless. No matter what, they have raised Suzy for many years. I hope it isn’t some poison that is difficult to cure.”
Evan furrowed his brows, his expression cold.
“Then tell me the results first.”
Hearing this, Ervin smiled and teased, “Don’t you not like Suzy? Why are you so concerned about her?”
“Get lost!”
When the two of them walked out of the ward, Ervin withdrew the smile on his face and said lightly, “Suzy doesn’t look like eye candy, but Evan, don’t forget that you have a fiancee. If the people of Noto City find out you and Suzy…”
“Do I need your reminder?” Evan glanced at him coldly.
“Okay, I know you know what you’re doing. I’ll go back to work.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Evan arrived at the parking lot and said directly to Nina, “You go first. I’ll drive her back.”
Mr. Hughes’s innate sense of oppression made Nina leave without asking Miss Carters’s opinion. She put the things down and left right away.
Suzy was speechless.
However, she didn’t reject it. Evan even knew to pick her up from the hospital. At least he still had a conscience!
When they arrived at the villa, Evan instructed, “I hired a nanny to take care of you. Stay at home and rest well for the next few days.”
Suzy looked at Evan suspiciously and asked, “Why are you so nice to me?”
Evan got out of the car and took the things in the backseat for Suzy. He said indifferently, “I don’t like to owe others.”
“Don’t worry! You’ve already repaid me enough. I won’t cling to you in the name of my savior. A year later…”
“Shut up!” Evan was unhappy to hear that. He interrupted her and said, “Tell me your bank card number.”
Suzy paused, then sent him the bank card number.
