Chapter 1806
"Mom, how did you know about this? Who told you? Who's stirring up rumours again?"
Evangeline subconsciously tried to cover it up.
Emberly said angrily, "A rumor? Well, I'll go to the examination department with you and check it myself. I want to see if one of your kidneys is still intact. If so, I'll apologise to you in person. If not, I'll teach you a lesson."
After saying that, Emberly pulled Evangeline and was about to go to the examination department.
"I'm not going!"
Evangeline refused directly. She even held the wall tightly with one hand and refused to leave.
This wasn't a joke! What if this was exposed?
Also, how did her mother know about this?
Evangeline was extremely surprised.
Aziel saw that Evangeline didn't want to leave, but Emberly seemed to insist on taking her away. She couldn't help stepping forward and standing in front of Evangeline, saying, "Dr. Xiao, please let go of her or I'll take action."
"How dare you attack me?"
Emberly felt that the assistant in front of her was acting ridiculous.
She was teaching her daughter a lesson. Why did this assistant come out to stop her?
Aziel said with neither humility nor arrogance, "Zion has asked me to protect her. I have the right to do it, regardless if you are her mother or someone else. I won't allow anyone to hurt Miss Xiao." NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Emberly was slightly stunned and looked at Aziel with sharp eyes. However, Aziel looked at her fearlessly without any dissatisfaction or doubt.
Seeing this scene, Calvin began to admire Zion's leadership abilities.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, Evangeline quickly grabbed Aziel's arm and said, "Aziel, this is my mother. She's playing with me. Don't worry about it."
"No, Zion said that I can't let you suffer any harm or grievances before he comes back. Otherwise, he will think that I have neglected my duties."
Evangeline was a little speechless when she was faced with such a loyal assistant.
Emberly smiled and let go of Evangeline. She looked at Aziel and said, "Then go and invite Zion over."
"Zion said that I can't leave Miss Xiao's side. He will arrive soon but please wait for a moment, Doctor Xiao. I'll call him now."
After saying that, Aziel let her go and called Zion as soon as possible.
Hearing the quarrel between Evangeline and Emberly in the ward, Zion had no time to say anything to Wisdom. He immediately opened the door and went straight to Evangeline's ward.
"Aunt Sanchez, calm down."
He walked in quickly, and Evangeline rushed straight over.
"How are you? Why did my dad hit you? Let me see your injuries."
Evangeline was about to rip off Zion's clothes as she spoke.
Emberly's face darkened and she couldn't help but cough pretentiously.
"Evangeline Xiao!"
Zion blushed as well.
Evangeline had become very bold these days.
He grabbed Evangeline's hand and whispered, "I'm fine. Be a good girl, alright?"
Evangeline looked at Emberly with some dissatisfaction and muttered, "How dare you people bully my man when I'm away."
"What did you just say? Say it again, I didn't hear you clearly."
Emberly was stimulated by the word "my man," so she lost control of her emotions.
Although she had always known that Evangeline liked Zion, she had always thought that it was just her pure obsession. She thought that Evangeline would naturally lose interest over time as long as Zion ignored her. After all, she really hoped that Evangeline would marry a man who really liked her.
But what the hell was happening now?
Not only did Zion notice Evangeline's efforts, but she had also gotten what she wanted. However, Emberly felt that her daughter had suffered a great loss.
Alas! How could she be so blinded by love?
Evangeline immediately gave in.
She hid behind Zion, tugged at Zion's sleeve, and looked pitifully at Emberly. She said, "Mom, isn't it too much for you to come all the way here to scold me? You're making a big deal out of nothing.”
"A big deal? Why didn't you think of your father and me when you gave your kidney to Zion?"
As soon as Emberly finished speaking, Evangeline's face changed.
"Mom, what are you talking about? How could a timid person like me do such a thing?"
After that, she looked at Zion nervously.
Had he found out as well?
When Zion heard her denying it, he dragged her out from behind. Looking at Evangeline's evasive eyes, he whispered, "Evangeline, I know everything. I've already told Uncle and Aunt Sanchez."
"What?"
Evangeline was stunned.
He knew it?
How could this be?
"When did you find out?"
She was ecstatic by Zion's response as she didn't expect that Zion would suddenly agree to date her. She really thought that he was touched by her efforts, but now it seemed that it wasn't because of this.
"So you're with me because you're grateful?"
Evangeline trembled and stared at Zion nervously.
Zion knew that she was feeling uneasy. He looked straight into her eyes and said, "No, if the person who did this today was someone else, I would give that person countless money and wealth for the rest of his life, but I would never give away my marriage and feelings. Evangeline, I saw through your love and dedication for me through your sacrifices, so I decided to give myself and you a chance. I like you, and I love you. This is what I found out recently. I'm sorry to tell you this."
Hearing Zion's words, Evangeline was surprisingly displeased.
She didn't know whether Zion was telling the truth or not, nor did she know what kind of mentality she should have to face him right now. All of a sudden, she felt that everything she tried to hide had been exposed, and all her efforts seemed to have become a joke.
"Zion, I never planned to use this issue to force you to like me, and I don't think you have to respond to my feelings. If you're just grateful..."
"No, I like you. I really like you."
"But if I hadn't donated my kidney, would you have agreed to date me? Would you be with me so quickly?"
Evangeline knew that she had made a fool of herself.
This was a hurdle that she couldn't overcome. She had always wanted to wait for Zion to accept her and say his true feelings, but she didn't expect Zion to learn everything.
So her love could only happen because of this kidney, right?
Evangeline suddenly felt a little upset, and her eyes were stinging because of the tears, which made her a little embarrassed.
"Sorry, I want to be alone. Can you all go out first?"
Everyone was worried when they saw how Evangeline was suddenly depressed, but no one could say anything in fear of provoking her. However, Zion did not respond. He stood there and looked at Evangeline with firm eyes.
His gaze made Evangeline feel stressed. She suddenly took a step forward, grabbed Zion's hand, and pushed him out of the door.
"Get out! Get out!"
