Chapter 768 You Didn''t Help Me


    "Who is it?"


    Be immediately got tense.


    Cornell quickly stood up, fastened his belt, and went to the window.


    Nicole med herself in heart for being too reckless. And it seemed a little difficult for her to sneak out


    now.


    What should she do?


    Just as Cornell was about to push open the window, a knock came from outside.


    "Doctor Cornell, the director is looking for you. Pleasee over."


    Cornell paused.


    "Wait. I''ll be there in a moment."


    "It''s urgent. She wants you there now. Doctor Cornell, it seems like something about the title."


    The nurse outside looked a little edgy.


    Be frowned.


    Taking advantage of this impasse, Nicole glided into the next ward. Fortunately, it was empty.


    Be pushed Cornell away and opened the window. A flower pot fell. There was no one outside, but


    she was still worried.


    Cornell looked down and whispered, "Perhaps it''s a stray cat or something. It''s very noisytely. This is


    the 13th floor. Who do you think can peek from a window high up here? Don''t be theatrical."


    Be was somewhat uneasy.


    "Go and check the CCTV. I can''t be at ease, anyway."


    "Stop messing around. I told the nurse that I was taking a lunch break here. But now you''re asking me


    to see the CCTV now. What''s the excuse? I can''t say that I lost something during the break, can I?"


    Cornell''s words made Be chuckle. "Why not? What if you did lose something?"


    "Get it straight. I turned off the cameras to meet you here. Otherwise, our rtionship would have been


    an open secret, okay?"


    Cornell felt that Be got wires crossed today.


    Be was a little irritated.


    "But there was someone there just now."


    "Where is it? This is the thirteenth floor! The window on the thirteenth floor. Try hiding out there


    yourself."


    Cornell went hysterical.


    At this moment, the nurse''s voice came from outside again.


    "Doctor Cornell, are you still there?"


    "This nurse is so needy. What happened? You can''t screw her, can you?"


    Be just expressed her jealousy.


    Cornell felt that Be was being simply unreasonable.


    "I''m a doctor here. Isn''t it normal for me to interact with nurses? What do you mean? Are you watching


    me every day? Or what? You''ve got husband and son, but I can''t have a rtionship? Be, aren''t you


    going too far?"


    All of a sudden, Be grabbed Cornell by the cor and said, "Do I go too far? Who am I doing this for?


    Cornell, you''re so ungrateful! You''re not married or in love with others, but don''t think that I have no


    idea what you''ve done with other bitches!"


    "Then what do you want? I am a man, a sexually healthy man! It''s been years. I''m done suppressing it.


    When I need you, you''re in Bard''s bed. What right do you have to restrict my social life?"


    Cornell pulled Be away and said coldly, "If you expect things to go smoothly with Maia, you''d better


    not provoke me now."


    "You! What nonsense are you talking about? I''m doing this for you and my son!"


    "Whoever you do so for, you can''t embarrass me. Be, I can stay unmarried for the rest of my life for


    you, but you''d better not interfere in my business, unless you don''t sleep with Bard."


    With that, Cornell mmed the door and left.


    Be was stunned, then sat down on the bed and cried.


    Nicole could hear it clearly next door, but she did not stay for too long. She was afraid that suddenly


    everything would click and Be came to find her.


    Nicole slipped out of the ward and saw Micah holding a cloak. He draped it over her body.


    "Mrs. Green, I heard something just now. I had a nurse call Cornell away."


    Nicole appreciated Micah''s reaction, but she said worriedly, "When Cornell knows that the director


    didn''t look for him, he will probably realize something, so we should hurry up and leave."


    "It''s alright, Mrs. Green. I''ve already talked with the director. As for Cornell''s title, I said Mr. Green


    doesn''t agree. So now the director must be looking for Cornell."


    Nicole was surprised at Micah''s reply.


    "You told the director about this? Just now?"


    "Yeah."


    "How did you know about the title thing?"


    "I heard it from the nurses, and they said that Cornell was taking a lunch break in his room, so I did it.


    Mrs. Green, is it inappropriate?"


    Micah looked at Nicole shamefacedly.


    "No, no, no. You did very well."


    Nicole hastened topliment him.


    Samuel did have a talented subordinate. If it hadn''t been for Micah just now, Nicole probably wouldn''t


    have escaped.


    Micah looked gratified by herpliment.


    "Is this your first mission?"


    Nicole couldn''t help but ask when she saw his childlike delight.


    Micah nodded.


    "Yes. Back then, everyone said that I was the youngest, so they left me at home to watch the


    surveince. This time, I''m out on a mission because they''re short-handed. To be honest, I like it."


    "Alright, I''ll tell Samuel that you''ll stay by my side."


    "Thank you, Mrs. Green."


    Micah looked overjoyed.


    Perhaps because of him, Nicole was in a much better mood.


    When they just walked to the emergency room, they heard Tim''s and Martha''s voices from over there.


    "Damn it. Sounds like they''re fighting."


    Nicole ran over.


    Sure enough, Tim and Martha quarreled over Maia.


    "It''s for your own good. Tim, you can have any girl you want. You can even keep her as a mistress for


    your whole life, but you can''t marry her. I don''t agree!"


    Martha was gulping, looking infuriated.


    Tim looked at Martha dejectedly and shouted, "Mom, I''m already an adult. Can you stay out of this? If I


    hadn''t remembered toe back halfway, I really wouldn''t know what my virtuous mother would have


    done to this weak woman."


    "What do you think I am? What can I do to her? Do you see me as a vicious woman? I did it for you,


    son! I just want to send her away. I can hire the best nurse to take care of her for the rest of her life andN?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    buy her a house, but I can''t let her ruin your life!"


    Martha''s eyes were burning with anger.


    Tim whispered, "Mom, the best way to take care of her is for me to marry her."


    "No way! Do you love her? Tim, ask yourself, do you love her? You''re grateful to her for she saved you.


    You feel that you owe her because she went sterile for saving you. My stupid son, you don''t need to


    pay her back with your entire life! Moreover, her sacrifice might not be sincere!"


    Tim and Nicole were struck dumb by Martha''s remarks.


    How could Martha know so much?


    "Mom, are you investigating me?"


    Tim found it unbelievable.


    At this point, Martha was frank with Tim.


    "Yes. To be more precise, I''m investigating Maia. I don''t care who she is. Even if she is a clerk, I will


    ept her, as long as she''s decent and loves you. But is that true? Tell me, did she really not know the


    consequences when she saved you? She is very familiar with traditional Chinese medicine, though she


    gave up her fertility for you. Is such a scheming woman really suitable for you?"


    Martha''s words shocked Nicole again.


    Nicole only knew Maia''s identity through Trevin. She didn''t expect that Martha actually figured


    everything out in such a short period of time after leaving the sanatorium.


    It was jaw-dropping news for Tim as well.


    "Mom, how can you..."


    "How can I know it so well? Son, although I was in the sanatorium for so many years, I can get


    information if I really want to know something. Your father has always left some people to take care of


    and protect me. I just didn''t like ordering them around. This time I did it for you."


    When Martha said this, the expression in her eyes wasplicated.


    Tim was dumbfounded.


    "How could that be? Didn''t he marry Be long ago? Why would he still treat you...?”


    Tim hurriedly shut his mouth when he realized what he had said.


    Martha smiled bitterly, "Your father really makes me sad. I don''t want to talk about him now. Just go


    back to you and Maia. Son, Maia is wicked. No matter what, I won''t let you marry her. If you take me as


    your mother, you must listen to me. I''ll take care of her for the rest of her life after she''s out of the


    emergency room. Don''t worry, I''ll be kind to her."


    "Mom, can I handle this by myself?"


    Tim really didn''t want her to interfere in this.


    No matter how he felt for Maia, he wanted full control of this. His mother''s help would make him feel


    like a child.


    Seeing Martha and Tim on the edge ofpsing into quarreling again, Nicole hurried in.


    "Martha, Tim, I just saw someone here. I don''t think the priority right now is to discuss if Maia should


    stay. Instead, hear me out first. I think you will know what to do after that."


    Nicole''s appearance made Martha pause for a moment. Some unfathomable emotion shed through


    Martha''s eyes, as if she knew something.


    "Nicole, you didn''t help me."


    "Martha, I''m sorry. I feel that Tim can manage this. It''s better for you not to interfere."


    Feeling guilty for this, Nicole med herself.


    Tim pulled her over.


    "What are you apologizing for? You didn''t do anything wrong. What are you going to say? Who did you


    see here?"


    The series of questions confused Nicole, and she didn''t know where to start. When Martha saw Tim


    holding Nicole''s hand, there was a flicker of regret in her eyes.


    Martha wished they weren''t rtives. If that were the case, Martha would have done everything she


    could to get Tim what he wanted. Unfortunately...


    Sighing in her heart, Martha heard Nicole say, "I saw Be and discovered a huge secret."


    Just as she was speaking, screams came, as if there was an emergency.
