Chapter 27 A tormenting issue


    “What the hell happened?” York was in the emergency room again when he got back to hospital.


    “I don’t know. His condition be unstable suddenly.” Mary said in a choked voice. n became


    worried and prayed, “York will definitely be fine.”


    Doctor came out from the emergency room with sweat, and shook head. It was dreadful.


    “We need more type A blood, Rh negative, which is rare. We ran out of it already here. It will take at


    least two hours to fetch it from the city. And I don’t think York can get through it without enough blood.”


    Mary copsed down when she heard this.


    “I have the same blood type. Let me...” n said. What a coincidence! Mary looked gratefully at n,


    while felt guilty and regretted for what she had done to n. He was so kind and helpful.


    With the help of n, York survived and recovered soon. And Mary begged for leniency at the court.

    Finally, Daniel was sentenced to 15 years in prison as well as an indemnity of thirty thousand dors.


    The family turned out to be in debt of twenty thousand dors.


    Life had been changed so badly.


    n looked gaunt and tired after dealing with all these for a week. But after all, they went through it.


    n returned to the Vergina Vige. Karen’s family was upset for Daniel didn’te back together. But


    if n didn’t help, Daniel would be subject to a more severe sentence.


    The family sat at the table as before without sarcastic Daniel who was in jail as the backbone of the


    family.


    “Karen, Amy, Betty and Carol, I will take the responsibility as the only man in the family. I’ve been a


    freeloader for a while. From now on, I will farm with you guys together. I will pay Daniel’s debt as well.


    Just don’t worry. Everything will be fine.” n spoke sincerely.


    “n, you little fool. It’s gonna be fine. I still can work.” Karen smiled awkwardly.


    “Yes. We’ll be there. We are not children already.” Amy said delightedly.


    Betty suddenly stretched her hand and said, “Come on. We will go through it together. We will be as


    happy as before.” Betty had never said something inspiring like that before.


    After hearing the inspiring words, they embraced together.


    At the same time, someone came in with a bucket and a chicken.


    To their surprise, that was Mary. Should they wee her, or hate her? Daniel wouldn’t be in jail if her


    son York didn’t steal their fish and get caught by Daniel.


    However, Mary was a victim as well, wasn’t she?


    “Mary, what are doing here?” Karen showed no hospitality. But n thought they should just let it go.


    “I bring some fish York stole from you.” Mary spoke softly. No one would be more distressed than her.


    “We don’t need them. Take them and get away.” Betty spoke relentless when the others kept silent.


    “I knew you might ept it. That year, my husband went catching fish with electricity together with my


    son, and my husband…” Mary burst into tears as she said this. Everybody was listening. It could be


    hard to raise two kids as a widow.


    Mary was less emotional as she continued, “My husband died of electrocution, while my son passed


    out though he stood far away. He turned out to be a fool. The only thing he could remember was to


    catch fish. So, every time he saw fish, he went to catch it for his dad. Seriously, my son didn’t mean to


    steal your fish. He remembered nothing but fish.


    After hearing this, they all understood.


    “We didn’t eat those fish York brought back, and we grew them instead. Right at the time we were


    about to send those fish back and exined to you, the tragedy happened.” Mary was weeping silently.


    So that was a misunderstanding. If Daniel could be calmer even a little bit, the tragedy wouldn’t


    happen.


    Mary put down the bucket and chicken before she left. After that, they understood that Mary was not as


    malicious as the vigers described. On the contrary, she was just trying what she could to protect her


    son.


    Everyone felt too upset to eat.


    After dinner, n came to Amy’s bedroom, “Everybody looked exhausted and haggard after suffering


    all these.”


    Amy held n in her arms, with her head on his shoulder, and said, “Thank you, n.” n touched


    her hair, embracing her, andforted, “I should be sorry. I didn’t bring Daniel back home.”


    Amy took a deep breath, wiping tears in the eyes, and spoke, “It’s fine. Dad has such a bad temper.


    Perhaps, he can learn from it. Just let him introspect in the jail. It won’t be too long anyhow. But…”


    n understood what Amy concerned most was they were in debt of twenty thousand dors.


    “I have a n to earn money. But it is just a rough one. I need your help when I have the details.” n


    realized the importance of money and his sry was only enough for living.


    To earn money, he had to work out a solution. However, he knew he had to be considerate and patient.


    n used to find the best solution by collecting and analyzing data.


    Everybody gradually forgot this issue.


    n had to support the whole family while working hard. Most importantly, he hadn’t hit on Amy, Betty


    and Carol. After all, he had already had a good beginning, for at least now Amy kissed him proactively.


    The cousins wouldn’t be mad at him if he kissed them asionally, except Betty. n dared not to kiss


    her for he got beaten so badlyst time he kissed her.


    n always couldn’t understand why Betty was so different from the other two cousins even though


    they were all growing together?
