Chapter 100 One event seeds another


    "How is my father, Mr. Yannick?" Isabe asked impatiently after they sat down.


    Mr. Yannick smiled lightly. He looked at Diana and said: "I''ve already talked with Mr. Jones. Your


    father''s ill is pretty serious. I''ll do my best to help you apply for out-of-prison treatment."


    Diana immediately thanked him, "Thank you so much... Mr. Yannick."


    Isabe was still in a calm state. She then asked with a frown: "If it fails, do we have any other


    solutions?"


    Her father was already aged, and had been psychological tortured during this period of time. With no


    oneforted him, he seldom ate or drank. That was why he suddenly fell ill with a stroke and hadn''t


    woke up till now. The doctor said the situation was quite dangerous.


    "Um..." He thought for a while, then looked at her and said gravely: "Your father is a felon and hasn''t


    been in custody for long. It''s hard for him get a special care. This will depend on his situation after he


    wakes up. If he couldn''t take care of himself, they may release him on medical parole.


    Isabe remained silent for a moment.


    She definitely hoped him be okay after he woke up.


    Although he brought this upon himself, but he was still her father. She couldn''t just see him suffer in


    there.


    Mr. Yannick promised her that he would do his best to help her with it. After thanking him repeatedly,


    Isabe took Diana to the ward.


    Having not seen him for more than a month, Tristan looked like apletely different personpared


    to the one she sawst time. He was extremely thin, with a lot more wrinkles and a head full of white


    hair.


    As soon as Isabe saw him, her eyes immediately went wet. But she still suppressed her sadness and


    calmed down.


    Diana was already crying quietly as she looked at him by the bed.


    Isabe couldn''t bear it any longer and she turned her face away. Seeing the doctoring in, she


    asked: "Doctor, how is my father?"


    "Not so good. But we''ll have to wait for him to wake up first." He said seriously.


    "Will hepletely recover after surgery?" Her voice was hoarse.


    As long as he could still eat and drink like a normal person, she would raise him after he came out of


    jail. If he were to lie on the bed from now on, she wouldn''t be willing  even if she could take care of him


    every day, she would not want to see that happen.


    "Very possible, so don''t worry." The doctor looked at her, and sighed.


    "Really?" Isabe asked.


    The doctor nodded, "However, we''ll still need to see how the court would decide about it. You can get


    prepared first."


    "Oh, okay. Thank you so much, doctor." Isabe''s joyful voice trembled. She turned to look at her father


    on bed. with a glimmer of hope ring up in her eyes.


    After the doctor left, Isabe stayed in the ward with Diana. The atmosphere was quite sombre.


    Diana was so tired that she fell asleep on the side of the bed. Isabe gently covered her with a coat,


    then went out to pick up a call.


    "Isabe, where are you now? I just got back from a business trip. I heard the thing about your father.


    I''ll be there now."


    It was Luke, who sounded quite worried.


    Isabe leaned against the wall. Her fair face had a heavy expression. After being silent for two


    seconds, she said in a calm and soft voice, "I''m already at the hospital with my mom. My father hasn''t


    woken up yet. You''ve just returned, and you must be very tired. It’s unnecessary toe over."


    Luke said in a low voice: "I''m not tired, and your dad is sick, so there must be some legal procedures to


    go through. I can help you with that. You''re pregnant as well, so you can''t tire yourself out."


    "Luke, it''s really okay. I have already let thewyer to deal with it. Now all I can do is to wait for my


    father to wake up. Even if youe over, you could just wait with me. I think you''d better rest at home


    and take care of Rachel. Maybe I''ll have to trouble you in the future."


    In the silent corridor, Isabe''s voice was soft, and her tone was clear and slow.


    She spoke in a very tactful way, but she was very clear that she was refusing.


    On the one hand, no matter who helped with her father''s issue, she would owe him a favour. She had


    already borrowed Luke two hundred and fifty million dors. She could pay the money back, but the


    favour was hard to repay.


    On the other hand, she felt Christian was right. She''d already out of one dilemma, why would she even


    jump into another one? A loveless marriage wouldn''tst long.


    Since she''d understood it, she should be more decisive.


    It was unknown if he''d understood what she really meant in her words, Luke gently said after being


    silent a few seconds, "Alright, my phone will always be on. if you have any problems, call me anytime.


    Tell me when your father wakes up. I''ll help you with the judicial process first."


    Rxed, Isabe smiled: "Okay, thank you, Luke. I will hang up first."


    "Okay."


    Isabe let out a long breath.


    Just now, she was really afraid that he would insisted oning over, otherwise she wouldn''t have any


    other reason to refuse him. Also, he didn''t ask how she got thewyer either.


    Pressing her forehead tiredly, she returned to the ward.


    In the evening, Tristan finally woke up, but his condition was still not good. He was unconscious and


    couldn''t speak. Seeing this, Diana almost fainted from crying.


    Isabe endured the pain andforted her, "Mom, didn''t the doctors say that it''s very possible for him


    to get recovered after surgery? Don''t worry, I''ll immediately contact the best hospital. As long as Mr.


    Yannick gets us approved, I''ll immediately arrange the surgery."


    Diana cried in grief and sorrow, she said regretfully: "It''s all my fault. If I''d persuaded him more in the


    past, he wouldn''t have done so much s*it..."


    Isabe''s face changed, saying sorrowly: "Mom, this has nothing to do with you. Don''t think about it,


    okay?"


    "This is all my fault..."As if she hadn''t heard Isabe, Diana still muttered while she was looking at


    Tristan lying on bed.


    Isabe frowned and felt heartache. She could only hug her tightly andforted her softly, "No, it''s


    not like that..."


    One event seeded another. Life was much more difficult than she had ever imagined, but these


    were who she loved the most in this world, so she had to muster up her courage to face all the


    difficulties.

    Just then, there was a light knock at the door.


    Isabe was startled. Then she wiped her tears off with her sleeves, and walked over to open the door.


    "Miss Jones, someone wants to see you."


    "Me?"


    With that, prison guard then left the ward.


    Feeling a bit strange, Isabe followed him outside.


    Outside the iron gate. She saw a stranger man, frowning, "Who are you, sir?"


    It was a handsome young man dressed in a suit.


    The man extended his hand respectfully, "Hi, Miss Jones, my name is Canon Braun. Mr. Miller asked


    me toe."


    Hearing that, Isabe''s hand paused for a second, "Mr. Miller? Why...Why did he send you here?"


    Hadn''t he already got her awyer?
