The old doctor came over. Seeing that Vanessa had woken up, he said with a gentle smile, “You’re awake! After sleeping for al while, you look better. Come on, let me give you a check–up”
As he spoke, the old man took Vanessa’s pulse and advised, “Miss, seems like you’re worried about too many things. You’re responsible for your own life, so treat yourself better and don’t worry too much about other people”
“Got it. Secing a stranger care about her so much, Vanessa was so moved that tears almost sprang to her eyes.
“Make yourself happy. Also, if you are angry, let it out. Don’t suppress it,” the old doctor said.
“Okay.”
“Take your medicine on time. Can you do it?”
“Yes, I can.” Vanessa nodded.
Tll be responsible for your health. I’ll prescribe you medicine for 10 days first. You can’t go anywhere for the next 10 days. Just stay here and recuperate. Can you do it? If you think it would disturb Katerine and her family to be here, you can stay at
house,” the old doctor said.

Katerine immediately said. “Mr. Lane, what are you talking about? I can’t wait to have visitors at home every day. It’ll make my house lively.”
“Alright. Katerine, you and your family are all nice people. You guys will be paid for your kindness. They’re injured and it’s not convenient for them to move around. Please help them decoct the herbal medicine,” the old doctor said.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Lane. I’ll make it for them,” Katerine said immediately.
“Alright.” The old doctor then turned to William and said, “Stay here and take your medicine on time every day. I’ll come back for a follow–up in 10 days. If you guys get better by then, you can go back home. Come to me every 10 days. I’ll give you a check–up and adjust the medicine for you.”
“Okay, thank you,” William thanked the old doctor politely.
At this time, a villager’s anxious voice came from outside. “Mr. Foster, slow down. Please slow down.”
William gave Vanessa’s hand a squeeze and said, “I’ll go help him here.”
While they were talking, Jackson appeared at the door.
Like William, he was also in a wheelchair.
The two of them looked at each other with complicated expressions.
There was a hint of gratitude and wariness in William’s eyes.
While Jackson’s eyes were filled with jealousy.
The two of them managed to calm themselves down. No one could tell what they were thinking.
William said politely, “Mr. Foster, thank you for saving my wife.”
Jackson did not answer. He did not want William to thank him.
gauze and she was in
He looked at Vanessa and sized her up. Seeing that the abrasions on her face were already covered with high spirits, he wheelchaired himself out of the room. He could not show too much concern for Vanessa because it would put
her in trouble.
William added, “Thank you, Mr. Foster.”
Jackson’s wheelchair stopped. He tightened his grip on the armrests of the wheelchair. His rationality told him that he should say that he would save anyone who fell down the slope in that situation.
This would protect Vanessa even more.
However, he did not want to push Vanessa into William’s arms again.
He gritted his teeth and wheeled himself out.
As there were steps at the door, two villagers carried him and the wheelchair down.
Jackson’s expression was gloomy.
He felt terrible.
He was aggrieved, but he could not figure out a way to vent his aggrievance.
He wished he could go up to a mountain to cry out loud.
As soon as he returned to Ronald’s house, he saw a familiar face.

He asked in surprise. “Judy? Why are you here?”
“Mr. Foster, what happened? Why are you injured so badly” Judy was also very surprised.
She thought of Jackson’s question and replied, “I’m from the Milestone Village. My husband’s name is Jolm Larson”
Actually, she was a widow. Her husband had died in a car accident the year before last. The driver compensated her with 74 thousand dollars.
However, she didn’t get much money. Her father–in–law bought her husband’s elder brother an apartment in town with the money and only gave her 6,000 dollars.
Her mother–in–law had been bullied by her father–in–law since they married. She wanted to persuade her husband to show some mercy because Judy and her child had a hard time after John’s death.
However, instead of feeling guilty, her husband slapped her. She covered her face and cried.
Later, when John’s brother moved to the city, Judy’s father–in–law asked her mother–in–law if she wanted to go to the city
with him.
Her mother–in–law said she was going to stay and farm.
Her father–in–law thought it was a good idea and even asked her to plant some more crops and vegetables. He said that the
in the city were high and he would come back every once in a while to get some.

Judy’s mother–in–law stayed in the village. Seeing Judy cry, she wiped tears off her face and said she would help her with the farming and take care of her child.
The two women hugged each other and cried bitterly.
At that time, Judy’s son was a healthy boy. He fell ill this year. Judy was unlucky. Most of the children in the countryside were healthy, but her son was seriously ill and her husband was killed in a car accident.
Her father–in–law said it was because she was a jinx that such terrible things happened to her husband and son.
Judy did not dare to retort and could only swallow the humiliation silently.
The leaders of the village pitied her and raised some money for her through charity. They also promised to help her repair
her house.
Other than that, they also called on the villagers to donate money for her son’s illness.
If there was anything that could earn her money, they would arrange it for her.
When they learned that Judy had returned from the city and would stay at home for a long time, the leaders asked her to come over to take care of Jackson and promised to give her 40 dollars a day.
When Jackson found out that Judy was actually a villager of the Milestone Village, he nodded and said, “I’m glad to see you
here.”
Now he could take the opportunity to return the 20 thousand dollars his mother had asked Judy to pay for the nightgown. “Mr. Foster, I’ll take care of you during this period of time,” Judy said.
“Okay,” Jackson replied.
Judy then wheeled Jackson to the dining table and said, “Mr. Foster, have breakfast first.”
Jackson asked, “Judy, have you arranged for your son’s surgery?”
Judy’s face turned gloomy. She opened her mouth but didn’t know how to tell Jackson about it.
This surgery cost tens of thousands of dollars. She had yet to gather enough money.
Jackson could tell what happened from Judy’s expression. He said, “Give me your band account. I’ll return the 20 thousand dollars my mother asked for from you. Also, how much is your son’s surgery fee? I’ll lend it to you first.”
Judy burst into crying. If there were not so many people here, she would have knelt down in front of Jackson on the spot.
She said gratefully. “Thank you, Mr. Foster. I’ll work hard and give your money back early.”
Indeed, her son needed surgery badly. There was no way she could collect so much money in a short time if Jackson didn’t
lend her.
“Alright. Give me your bank account,” Jackson said.
Judy did not hesitate and immediately gave her bank account to him.
Jackson transferred 20 thousand dollars before asking her, “How much do you still need? Are 100 thousand dollars enough?”
“Yes, 60 thousand dollars is enough. Mr. Foster, please lend me 60 thousand dollars first,” Judy said excitedly.
Jackson transferred another 60 thousand dollars to her.
16:310
Judy had a hard time holding back her tears, but now, she was so moved that she started crying again.
Mona comforted her, saying, “Come on, don’t cry. You can arrange the surgery for your son now”
Everyone had breakfast together.
After he was done eating. Jackson returned to his room to rest.
Two villagers carried him to the bed. He was actually seriously injured. In the morning, he insisted on going to see Vanessa no matter how hard the villagers tried to stop him, so they could only let him go in a wheelchair.
Judy went to boil the herbal medicine.
After she was done, she brought it to Jackson’s room.
When she walked into the room, she put down the medicine and knelt down in front of Jackson.
Jackson was lying on the bed. When he saw Judy kneeling down, he said helplessly. “Judy, there’s no need to be like this. Get up and say it if you have something to tell me.”
