Chapter 218 What do You Want From Him?
“No. Your son disgusts me more than you do.” After hesitating for a second, Susan refuted coldly.
“Susan, what do you want from Manuel? Since both of you were kids, you had been bullying him.
However, he never got mad at you. Instead, he stayed by your side to protect you and care for you.
What else do you want from him?”
“If he really cares for me, he won’t force me to marry him.” Susan refuted again.
“Have you ever wondered how helpless he is so that he would try such dirty tricks to get you?”
When Susan was about to start another quarrel, Justine suddenly added, “Do you remember what
caused the scar on his forehead?”
Susan paused. Then she recalled that at Manuel’s age of 12, she deliberately flew a kite into a tree.
With the plot that Manuel would probably fall from a height to kill himself, she asked him to climb the
tree to bring back the kite. Unfortunately, Manuel did fall from the tree. He broke his forehead and it
took eight stitches to staunch the wound. That was why Manuel maintained his bangs hanging over his
forehead to cover the
scar.
“Besides that, what about the dog bite on the back of his hand?” Justine added once again.
Susan bit her own lips.
At the age of 14, there was a hiking arranged by school, during which she strayed from the crowd.
What was worse, her phone went out of power. While looking for the team, a stray dog rushed to attack
her. It was Manuel who rushed out from nowhere. She had never seen him fighting so fiercely before.
He got bite wounds all over including the back of his hand, where part of his flesh was almost torn off.
“He had been abroad to study all alone for four years. Who do you think the reason would be?”
Indeed, it was Susan who required him to do so.
At that time, she said she didn’t want to see him anymore. Then she asked him to study abroad so that
she could avoid any conflict with Henry during the relationship with him.
After all, everyone knew that Manuel had a crush on her.
At the age of 18, Manuel went abroad alone because of her request.
At that time, he had actually been admitted to the best university in Northfield. However, he turned it
down and went abroad to start over again.
“What do you want from him? Have you ever wondered how badly he has been hurt because of you?”
while Justine was speaking, tears welled up in her eyes.
“That was his own decision.” Susan remained cold.
However, she struggled to convince herself not to be guilty. It had nothing to do with her even if Manuel
had a crush on her, she believed. His crush on her should never be his reason to force her to marry
him. Hearing what Susan said, Justine couldn’t help trembling out of anger.
Seeing that, Edward was also irritated by Susan’s indifference, “Susan, I really regret spoiling you! You
never learn to be grateful and pay respect, don’t you?”
1 turn to be like this just because I lost my mom!” Susan shouted.
The conflict between her and Edward wouldn’t be likely to dissolve.
Suddenly, Edward’s face turned abnormally blushed. With his eyes wide open, his face turned horrible
looking. A weird shiver went down his body. His face turned terribly ill.
“Edward!” Harrison hurried over to hold him steady.
Edward seemed to be frozen and choked.
“Susan, call the ambulance! Hurry!” Harrison urged.
Susan was also rendered panic. Though she was mad, she never expected that her dad would be like
that. She picked up her phone with trembling hands to call an ambulance.
Harrison said decisively, “Justine, let’s take him to the hospital. Be careful. Don’t shake him too much. It
could probably be a cerebral haemorrhage caused by hypertension. Susan, told your dad’s private
doctor to wait for us.” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
“OK.” Susan nodded in trembling voice.
Soon, they took Edward to the hospital. Then he was taken into the emergency room. Watching the
door being closed, Susan felt distraught. Now it was her father who was in the emergency room.
Her eyes were filled with tears. She bit her own lips to convince herself that she did nothing wrong. She
just didn’t think her marriage should be decided by someone else.
Then she heard someone sobbing at the corridor. It was Justine. Harrison was staying by her side to
comfort her.
Back into her previous life, Harrison didn’t take Susan back to her home. Nor did she remember if
Edward was sent into the hospital at the same time. But she was sure Edward wouldn’t pass away this
time.
An hour later, the doctor walked out of the emergency room.
With her eyes blurred by tears, Justine walked over, “Doctor, how’s my husband?”
“Ma’am, don’t worry. The patient is now safe. Luckily, no sequela has been noticed so far. Thanks to
the timely arrival, he survives the potential paralysis brought by haemorrhage.”
“Thank you, doctor” Justine hurried to say.
“The hemorrhage is brought by hypertension. Though he is safe, you still need to avoid the same thing
happening again. Otherwise, he will be in danger.”
“Thanks, doctor.”
After the doctor finished his advice, Edward was taken out of the emergency room. He looked feeble
with pale face, totally different from his usual impression in Susan’s heart.
Deep inside her heart, Edward used to be a tough and strong father. However, he collapsed all of a
sudden. At the thought of that, Susan couldn’t help looking away. After making sure that her dad was
safe, she literally ran away.
Needless to say, she must be turning to Henry.
Actually, both Edward and Justine had talked to Henry last night, which Susan didn’t know. She could
no longer turn to Henry for comfort. Together with Justine, Harrison walked into Edward’s ward.
Meanwhile, she planned to talk to Manuel, who exactly lived in the ward next door.
As Edward looked a bit better, Harrison walked into Manuel’s ward. However, as soon as she entered,
she suddenly paused. Because she saw both Oscar and Theodore, both of which noticed Harrison’s
arrival as well.
Nervous, she felt like bumping into some kind of secret.
