Chapter 178


    Lanny was deeply distressed by the despair on her face, so she bent down and hugged her


    “Miss Sales, thank you”


    Lanny’s hug drew Scarlett’s thoughts back, and she managed to lift her arm to pat hus back


    “I’m still grateful to you for saving me. Without you. I’m not sure I would have had the opportunity to say


    farewell to my


    sister…


    A nurse rushed in after Susan ran away and checked on Scarlett, informing her that it was Lanny who


    had arrived just in time to save her


    Although she was unaware of the reason why Lanny had saved her, the act of swing her life was


    enough to make her remember it, no further questions were necessary


    “Actually, it was Mr.-”


    Lanny wanted to tell her that it was Mr. Jackman who had requested her to rescue Scarlett. However,


    before she could finish. Scarlett interjected. Dr. Lanny, what happened to my sister, Susan.”


    Two hours had passed and Susan still hadn’t returned, causing her to worry about what might have


    happened to her


    Lanny had been paying attention to Scarlett the whole time, unaware that Susan was not present in the


    room.


    She looked around and said to Scarlett. Til send someone to find her”


    Scarlett thanked her and looked at the paper bag on the bedside table Dr Lanny, take that bottle of


    perfume please.”


    Lanny wanted to refuse the perfume, but Scarlett almost paid her life for it, so if she didn’t ept it, it


    would appear


    ungrateful


    After taking the perfume, she instructed Scarlett to rest well, then turned and exited the ward,


    suminoning a few security guards to review the surveince footage.


    After Susan rushed out of the hospital in the surveince camera, she identally bumped into Lance,


    and the two seemed to have a quarrel.


    But there was no big conflict. After a few words, Susan ran out of the hospital directly, and then there


    was no more record. Lanny gestured towards Susan on the monitor and instructed the security guards.


    “Dispatch a few people to retrieve her.” The security guard immediately epted the order and went in


    search of her. Having dealt with the matter, Lanny returned


    to the ward


    Seeing that Scarlett had fallen asleep and the nurse was taking care of her carefully. Lanny was


    relieved and turned back to her office.


    Running off somewhere without knowing where she was. Susan eventually grew tired and found a


    bench in the corridor to sit on for the night.


    Only when the security guard approached and inquired if she was Susan did she regain her


    Only then did the security guard let out a sigh of relief and anxiously said to her. “Miss Croft, you need


    to get back to the hospital quickly. Executive Lanny is looking for you.”


    Susani was stunned. Under the security guard’s urging, she got up and followed them into the car.


    Upon returning to the hospital, Susan encountered Cosmo, who had gone to the first floor toplete


    the discharge


    process.


    Seeing Susan, he was taken aback and asked why she was there. Susan remained silent, her lips


    pursed


    Cosmo was slightly unnerved by herrge eyes and, without thinking, averted his gaze.


    “Honey…”


    He nervously called out, then asked guiltly, “The doctor said Cassandra’s pregnancy is precarious, so it


    would be best for her to stay close to the hospital before the baby is born. Our house is pretty close to


    the hospital. Could she stay with us for a bit


    Of course. That woman was even dissolute while she was pregnant!


    Susan had an overwhelming desire to spit at him, yet she inexplicably managed to restrain herself. She


    had been deprived of love since she was young, leaving her vulnerable to being easily moved. At the


    same time, she was able to easily scoff at anyone who had betrayed her, which was a good thing


    10:38


    She nced coldly at Cosmo, and there was no former love in her eyes, only disgust.


    “Up to you.”


    She walked past him expressionlessly, as if not caring.


    When Cosmo saw her dazed look. he wanted to chase after her and ask why she hade to the


    hospital; however, Cassandra held his arm back.


    “Did she agree to let me stay at your home?”


    Cosmo nodded, his eyes staring at Susan’s back.


    Cassandra’s face fell, and she shook his arm vigorously. “Don’t tell me you’re taken with her. You said


    you’d only use her as a means to an end, to get a luxurious house for me and my kid in the city…


    Cosmo came back to his senses and patted Cassandra’s hand tofort him, “Don’t worry, I won’t fall


    for a nightclub chick.”
