Chapter 611
When she arrived at the hospital and mentioned Lillian’s name at the nurses’ station, what was
initially considered a hint of hope had now been confirmed as a fact.
Lillian was indeed seriously injured and had juste out of the emergency room. Now she was
under observation in the ICU ward. Only after passing through the critical period could she be
transferred to an ordinary ward.
Rosalie felt as if everything in front of her was gradually bing darker. When she came to the
ICU ward, she saw Stephen and Abigail standing in front of the ss window and crying while
looking inside.

Rosalie hadn’t met Lillian’s parents for more than four

“Where’s Lillian? Lillian is…”
years. She thought that she would be in such a ce when she
Rosalie’s legs were trembling. At this moment, she was even a little timid and dared not step
forward to see what Lillian looked like behind the ss window. She was afraid that if she saw her,
she would be unable to bear it.
She took one step at a time.
It was a short distance, yet it felt so long.
When Rosalie finally reached the transparent ss window, Lillian lying on the hospital bed was the
sight that greeted her.
In an instant, Rosalie burst into tears.
Rosalie thought, ‘Is that Lillian? Is that her? The person on the bed is lying motionless with a tube in
her nose and thick gauze wrapped around her head. If not for the number on the instrument next to
her that is still changing, I would think that a dead person is lying on the bed.
What exactly happened?
Before leaving Strico, Lillian was so energetic when I talked to her on the phone. She also said that
we would get together and go shopping and have a meal when she came back.
Why did Callum disappear? Why was Lillian seriously injured? These things are like a mystery, and
I have no answers yet.”
“How is Lillian doing now?” Rosalie murmured.
Her voice immediately attracted the attention of Lillian’s parents. When they turned around and saw
it was Rosalie, they became angry again as if they had finally found a way to vent their anger.
Abigail snapped at Rosalie, “What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you on the phone to stop
harassing us if you’re still grateful to Lillian? Lillian had given up so much for you in the past. Now
that she’s in this state, can’t you even give us some peace of mind?”
“I-I just want to know what happened to Lillian. Is there anything I can do to help?” Rosalie choked
out.
“Help? What can you do to help?” Abigail said angrily. “You’ve been to prison. You are not a doctor
or a cop. What can you do to help? Treat Lillian? Or find the killer who tried to hurt her?”
Rosalie clenched her teeth tightly. She couldn’t refute Abigail’s words.
Now she could do nothing but look at Lillian who was seriously injured.
Stephen was calmer than Abigail. He pulled his wife and said, “That’s enough. Stop talking about it.
What’s the use of you telling her this?”
Then Stephen said to Rosalie, “Lillian is not doing so well. As you can see, our family is in a mess
now. We are already in a bad mood. I hope you won’t show up in front of us again. Although we
know that what happened to Lillian has nothing to do with you this time, seeing you will only remind
us of how much Lillian has given up for you. We can’t help but have a grudge against you.”
“I-I understand,” Rosalie said. That was why she had neverined about Stephen and Abigail
because no parent is willing to see their child sacrifice their great future for a friend.
At this moment, a nurse came over and handed Stephen and Abigail a bill. “Your previous deposit
has been deducted and you still owe some money. Go and settle it quickly. After that, Lillian needs
to have another two operations. There are also the expenses of the ICU ward and follow-up
expenses. You guys should be prepared to spend a few hundred thousand
dors.”
Stephen and Abigail felt their heads buzz when they heard that. Ordinary families like them couldn’t
get so much money.
“I-Is it really that expensive?” Stephen asked tremblingly.
“It depends. You have to ask the doctor about it, but a few hundred thousand dors is just a
minimum. Maybe more money will be needed inter treatment,” the nurse said.
After the nurse left, Stephen and Abigail held the bill with a bitter look.
“What should we do about the money?” Abigail was at a loss. The two of them only had tens of
thousands of dors left in their savings. If they wanted to save their daughter, it would be hard for
them to make ends meet.
However, if they didn’t pay up, the hospital would only give her conservative treatment and stop
providing her medicines just to keep her breathing. There was no telling how long her life wouldst.
Even if she could survive, she would always be
like a dead person.
Stephen frowned. After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind and said, “If there’s no
other way, then let’s sell the house. Our house can still be sold for around 200 thousand dors.”
“But… what if it isn’t enough? The nurse said that there’s no telling how long she’ll stay in the ICU
ward, and there are also rehabilitation expenses…”
“I don’t care about that much. My daughter’s life is important. If I run out of moneyter, then I will
kneel and beg for food to cure her, and… there’s still Callum. If Callum shows up in the future, he
will definitely find a way to save Lillian!” Stephen said.
“But Callum is missing now. No one knows what’s going on with him. Is he already…” Abigail
sobbed and dared not think about it anymore.
Rosalie was heartbroken when she heard these words.
“Sell the house? They only have one house. If they really sold it, what would happen to them?” she
wondered. “Do they have to rent a house for the rest of their lives? How will Lillian feel when she
wakes up in the future and finds that even her home is gone?”
“Mr. and Mrs. Quinn, I’ll find a way to raise money for Lillian’s medical expenses,” Rosalie said.
Stephen and Abigail wore looks of disbelief.
Abigail said, “What are you talking about? Raising money? Get lost! Don’t bother us anymore!”
Rosalie took a deep breath, then looked at her friend lying on the hospital bed.
“Lillian, you have to hold on. I’ll find a way to settle the medical bill. No matter what, I will keep you
alive and make sure you recover!” she muttered to herself.
Rosalie hurried out of the hospital. Now, the only person she could think of who coulde up with
such arge sum of money at once was Calvin.
