Chapter 193: I Don''t Want Anything Else Either


    “Your family’s affairs?”


    Scarlett seemed to have expected what he would say. She was not surprised, but her face turned


    colder.


    “I’m not interested in your family’s affairs. What I want to know is, how exactly you n to distribute


    your inheritance, since you don’t have much time left to live. How much do you n to give Hayden?


    This girl is very shy like her mother, who is embarrassed to ask for anything, so as her senior, I am


    asking you now.”

    When Florence passed away twenty-five years ago, Scarlett already despaired of Brook. He was a


    man who abandoned his wife, and she didn’t think he was a responsible man. However, Hayden was


    his daughter, and she should get all money that she deserved. After all, Florence was the one who


    helped Brook to start his business.


    The ward was quiet. Everyone there was also concerned about the matter of inheritance, as it was


    rted to them, especially Sofia and Chelsea.


    “I’ve already given Hayden her part of the inheritance,”


    Brook said as if he had experienced a lot of difficulties.


    “Dad, what did you give her?” Chelsea asked Brook impatiently.


    Brook raised her head and looked at her coldly, “I have given Green Lemon Clothing to Hayden.”


    “Green Lemon Clothing?”


    Chelsea didn’t even know that there was such apany under the Downey Group. When she was


    just about to ask Brook what it was, she was tugged by Sofia, who signaled her to keep quiet.


    Because she was the only one who knew that Green Lemon Clothing was just a memento of Brook to


    Florence, which had been in financial deficit for the past few years and relied on the mainpany to


    maintain it. Giving thepany to Hayden was like letting her inherit a poisoned chalice.


    “Scarlett.” Hayden pulled Scarlett’s hand. “I don’t need anything else except Green Lemon Clothing, as


    it was mother’spany. Let’s go.”


    Hearing her words, Scarlett frowned and said, “Okay.”


    “Dad, I wish you a happy and healthy life when you go back.”


    Brook didn’t raise his head to look at her, lowering his head thinking something. If someone looked at


    him carefully, his eyes were red, looking very sad and at a loss.


    Hayden and Scarlett left the hospital side by side. They did not talk about what just happened.


    “Scarlett, why did youe to the hospital?”


    “I came to pick up a prescription, but the doctor was not around, and I heard that Brook was


    hospitalized so I wanted to taunt him. I didn’t expect he will be discharged today. What a disaster.”


    “Such a coincidence?”


    Hayden asked with a smile, “Is there someone who dares to mention my daddy in front of you?”


    If Scarlett didn’t take the initiative to check Brook’s status herself, who would have dared to mention the


    Downey family in front of her?


    There are no coincidences in this world, only encounters that were carefully arranged for someone or


    something.


    Sofia red at her.


    “Don’t talk about it again. By the way, why did you choose to inherit a shittypany instead of


    something else?”


    “It’s my mother’spany, and the other things mean nothing to me.”


    “How much does thepany worth? You didn’t inherit the good traits but only inherit the bad traits


    from her.” Scarlett looked disgusted. “You will cry if thepany goes bankrupt.”


    “How did my mother start thepany? Was it smooth at the beginning?”


    “It’s not smooth at all!”


    Scarlett curled her mouth, “Do you think she is gifted in doing business? At that time, your grandfather


    looked for many people to help her, but she just sided with the outsiders instead of your grandfather. I


    can still remember the time when your grandfather prevented her from getting married until you were


    born…”


    They were talking quite rxingly at first, butter they still mentioned Florence’s death.


    No one could know the feeling of seeing one’s child die earlier than one unless he or she experienced


    it.


    After Florence gave birth to Hayden, she suffered from another hemorrhage when she was just out of


    the ward, and it was toote to resuscitate her. Then she passed away in the arms of her best friend,


    Scarlett, who was already her brother’s wife at that time, and she did not even have enough time to


    meet her father for thest time.


    This incident hurt Florence’s father a lot as she loved Florence the most among the three children.


    When Florence passed away, she was only twenty years old and still very young. How was it possible


    for him not to feel sad?


    This incident also made him who was always fit weaker, and then finally he could no longer take care of


    Hayden and passed away.


    A man’s betrayal had led to the tragedy of three families.


    At that time. Scarlett was already pregnant for more than two months and have drunk a lot of Chinese


    medicine to get pregnant. Before she had time to tell her family about her pregnancy, the only child in


    her life also died as a stillborn, as she followed the ambnce and ran inside the hospital. After that,


    she could not get pregnant anymore.


    After many years, Hayden only understood the friendship between Scarlett and Florence.


    …


    At noon, a table of scrumptious food was prepared to wee Brook home.


    “Brook, it was all the dishes you love to eat. Come and sit down.”


    Sofia helped Brook sit down on his chair. He picked up the chopsticks and tasted a bite, then he put the


    chopsticks aside.


    “What’s wrong dad? You do not like it?”


    Chelsea was a bit nervous, “Or else I ask them to re-prepare it.”


    “No need.” Brook coughed and got up. “I am a bit tired and want to rest first. Later help me ask Mr.


    Lionele to my study when hees.”


    Looking at Brook who looked unwell physically, Chelsea was a bit stunned. “Oh, okay.”


    Then she heard a clear sound of closing the door from the study on the second floor. The living room of


    the vi was quiet. Sofia was asking the nanny to clean up the flowers and nts in the corner as if


    nothing had happened, then she brought out a dinner te, a bowl, and a spoon from the kitchen, as


    well as a pot of stewed soup.


    “Your father didn’t eat anything just now. Bring this pot of soup up and let him drink.”


    Sofia looked at the soup, “Mum, is this… soup?”


    “Of course it’s soup, what else could it be?”


    Sofia red at her daughter and lowered her voice, “Don’t say such nonsense at home. Quickly bring it


    up.”


    Looking at her mother’s expression, Chelsea knew that the soup was not normal.


    She was a little bit panicked, “Mum, dad is already feeling unwell. Let’s not…”


    “Do you know why thewyer ising in a few minutes?”


    Sofia interrupted her daughter, “Your daddy is making an inheritance. He won’t only give that little to


    Hayden. If we wait for him to make an inheritance, we’ll have nothing left.”


    “No. Daddy will not do that. He’s not that kind of person.”


    “Do you want to go?”


    Sofia showed a rare impatient look, “If you don’t want, I’ll go myself.”


    With that, she dodged Chelsea with her te and went straight upstairs.


    Chelsea bit her lips and was about to chase after her when she heard the sound of the doorbell from


    her back.


    Michael Lionel was here.


    “Is Mr. Downey here?”


    “Yes.” Chelsea looked upstairs and said sharply. “My dad is upstairs and he has been waiting for you


    for a while. You should go upstairs now.”


    Michael smiled politely.


    “Okay, I know. Thank you, Chelsea.”


    With that, he walked towards the second floor.
