Rose and her friends were speechless. At a time like this, Morwenna was still green with envy, sending Orson to apany someone else was clearly a jab at Adide.
Was she in the right?
Just as Rose was about to climb onto her high horse andunch into a tirade against Morwenna, she heard her cousin Stuart chime in with agreement, "You''re not wrong."
Rose''s prepared speech got choked back down her throat.
After Stuart''sment, he took Morwenna by the hand and headed for the exit.
"Stuart, where are we off to?" Morwenna asked.
"Aren''t youining about a toothache? Let''s get you to a dentist," Stuart replied.
Norbert chuckled at the scene.
The Hetfield family members exchanged bewildered looks.
Meanwhile, Orson, ignoring Adide''s protests, had already whisked her away to the hospital.
Adide was fuming, "You... you damn bodyguard, how dare you treat me like this! You''ve got some nerve!"
Orson, seemingly unbothered, retorted, "Ms. Gagher, where''s your insurance card? I''m just responsible for getting you here; paying your medical bill isn''t in my job description. I''m just a simple bodyguard; not exactly swimming in cash."
"You..."
"If you''ve got something to say, save it. Mrs. Hetfield always tells me to be kind to others. So, I''ll generously cover your emergency registration fee, but you''ve got to handle your medication costs!"Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
"I..."
"Look, save your breath. You''ve been hovering around Mr. Hetfield for years and he''s still not into you. Sticking around isn''t going to change his mind."
"Ha..."
"You still find this funny? Mrs. Hetfield might be kind, but cross her, and she can throw a punch. Keep it up, and see if I''m not right!"
"Just go..."
Orson felt he hadn''t said anything out of line, but Ms. Gagher was clearly livid.
To avoid further escting the situation, Orson decided it was best he left first.
After all, he had fulfilled his duty by bringing her to the hospital and even paid the emergency fee. His conscience was clear.
He noticed Ms. Gagher seemed quite spirited when not in Mr. Hetfield''s presence, hardly the damsel in distress she portrayed.
Adide didn''t expect Orson to actually leave her there, all alone in the hospital.
She wanted to storm off in a huff, but the pain in her stomach was unbearable.
After waiting in line for two hours
Adide emerged with two
mg the doctor for merely five
boxes of medication, her face pale.
That was thest straw for her.
She reached into her purse and clutched the small medicine vial, firm in her resolve.
She had considered giving Stuart another chance.
But if Stuart didn''t appreciate her, she wouldn''t be med for the ruthlessness toe.
Tonight had to be the night. First, she needed to find a way to get Morwenna out of the picture.
Adide immediately called Bary.
When Bary saw Adide''s iing call, he recalled what Fletcher had told him, feeling a mix of emotions.
"Bary, I need a favor," Adide said, her voice dripping with sweetness.
She didn''t beat around the bush, knowing Bary had never refused her before.
But this time, Bary asked, "What is it?"
Adide paused, taken aback by Bary''s response. He didn''t just agree but asked what the matter was.
It must be Morwenna''s doing. Everyone around her seemed to have fallen under Morwenna''s spell, siding with her.
Adide, though seething with
anger inside, maintained her usual tone, "Here''s the thing, my brother''s condition has worsened, and there''s a specialisting in from abroad tonight But I still want Fletcher to perform the surgery. I trust hi skillspletely. It''s just that there''s been a Bit of a misunderstanding between Fletcher and metely, and I can''t approach him directly. I was hoping you could help."
Bary breathed a sigh of relief, “Oh, that. No problem, I''ll call Fletcher right away. He''ll definitely agree to operate on Jethro."
Hearing how Adide spoke so
caringly about her brother, Barce
was convinced that whatever
happened to Jethro had nothing to do with Adide.
