Chapter 13 The Damned Woman
"One million?!"
"Yes, one million."
"Cindy, are you crazy? I don't have so much money. Now you have only two choices. Either we divorce and you give up all your property, or we just keep wasting our time like this. Anyway, I'm a jobless vagabond now. I'm not afraid."
Cindy didn't expect that Horald would become a scoundrel.
Cindy didn't expect that.
"Horald, you can't do this. My brother is waiting for the money to save him in the hospital. You know that."
"Your brother is in the hospital. It's none of my business. Anyway, whatever you say, I don't have money now."
Horald stood up and was about to leave.
Cindy thought of the skinny body of Jason and her heart ached, "Horald, you can't leave. After all, Jason has called you brother-in-law for several years. Are you so cruel? Besides, what I want is my money, my money."
Cindy grabbed Horald's arm and shook it hard.
Cindy's face turned red because of anxiety.
She had soft hair, delicate facial features, pink lips and a layer of mist in her eyes. All this was vivid because of her red face.
No wonder Claude couldn't forget her.
Cynthia was such a beauty, but he would rather exchange a wonderful night with Cindy on such generous terms.
Horald smiled and came up with an idea.
"Okay, I won't leave. Let go of me first. How can we talk in this way?"
Horald said slowly and sat down on the bench again.
His tone softened, and Cindy had hope. She thought what she said just now touched Horald's heart.
The words "brother-in-law" were called by Jason for a long time.
"Have a seat." Horald patted the chair.
Cindy frowned. She didn't want to sit with this scumbag.
After thinking for a while, she sat down.
She chose to put up with it for the sake of Jason.
A trace of coldness flashed across Horald's face.
"Cindy, I apologize for what happened that night. I did that for our future. If I become the director of the cardio-surgery department, I will find an expert to treat Jason's disease. Of course, I used a wrong way." Cindy was surprised. Horald seemed to have changed into another person.
Glancing sideways at Cindy's expression, Horald couldn't help but feel complacent.
"I really think so. Cindy, we have been together for years. How could I really do that? It's just a trap."
Horald looked around and lowered his voice.
"I have drugged Claude. How can he make it if he doesn't have erection at the critical moment? ."
An obscene smile instantly spread on Horald's face. He even laughed out loud.
This face was so strange. It was disgusting.
Cindy tried hard to hold back the nausea in her stomach.
Drugged?
How could Cindy believe such a lame excuse? Claude was so obvious excited that night.
Horald, do you think I'm stupid?
Without saying a word, Cindy frowned and looked at Horald coldly.
"Cindy."
Horald whispered affectionately.
At that moment, Cindy was in a trance.
"Go to find Claude and apologize to him. In that case, even if I can't be the director, I can still keep the position of the attending doctor. Let's live a good life in the future. I promise I will be good to you. Okay?" Horald reached out and held Cindy in his arms.
Getting rid of his arms, Cindy slapped heavily on Horald's face.
"Horald, you are so shameless. How could you say that? Don't forget who helped you complete your university thesis. Don't insult my intelligence. Do you believe your dirty excuses?"
A string of accusation came out in an instant.
Cindy had planned to put up with it for the sake of Jason, but she didn't expect Horald to be such a despicable person.
Cindy couldn't stand it anymore.
"Cindy, you've made up your mind. If you do as I say, I'll go to the hospital to pay for Jason's medical treatment tomorrow. Otherwise, I won't talk to you."
The trick was exposed on the spot, and Horald was ashamed into anger.
Then he left after throwing a few hard words.
"Horald, give me back my salary card and credit card. That's my money."
Cindy shouted behind him. Her tone was full of tears.
People passing by couldn't help but look sideways.
Horald ignored her and disappeared in the crowd without looking back.
Tears welled up in Cindy's eyes.
What should I do?
Her mind was in a mess.
Cindy arrived at the hospital with heavy steps.
It was time to go to work.
At the gate of the hospital, Amanda stood there and looked around.
"Cindy. How is it?" When she saw Cindy, she immediately ran up to her.
When she saw Cindy's tired face, she knew that she was doomed. "Cindy, haven't you found Horald?"
"Yes."
Feeling dizzy, Cindy didn't want to talk and went straight to her department.
But Amanda was not reconciled. She walked around and stopped in the way.
"What's the result? Did Horald forgive you? Where is the money?" After throwing away a series of questions, Amanda stared at Cindy's face.
At this moment, Cindy's face was as pale as a piece of paper.
"Mom, I have divorced with Horald. I haven't got the money."
"What?. Cindy, didn't I ask you to apologize? Have you ever considered about Jason? How can you be so selfish?"
Amanda shouted.
Cindy smiled bitterly.
Selfish?
Well, for this family, she endured from now on. But now, he had made such a contribution.
"That's it. Mom, I'm going to work."
"Okay, okay. It was good to divorce. Didn't you hook up with a rich man? Go find him and ask him to save your brother with money." For her son's sake, Amanda began to speak without thinking. Cindy clenched her fists and forced herself to calm down.
"Mom, those are rumors. How can you believe them?"
"Don't call me mom. I'm not your mom. Your mom has already died. From now on, you have nothing to do with me. I don't care how many rich people you hook up with."
Cindy's forbearance didn't win her mother's tenderness.
Her words were getting worse and worse.
People were coming and going at the gate of the hospital. The quarrel between the mother and daughter attracted everyone's attention.
Lowering her head, Cindy didn't say anything, allowing her mother to shout.
The words just now were like a sharp blade, piercing into her soft ground.
Yes, she was just a child without a mother.
Seeing this, the family of the patient in the same ward with Jason felt sorry for Cindy and persuaded Amanda to leave.
The familiar black Bentley stopped at the roadside.
Wearing a black suit, Ethan looked sullen as he watched what happened not far away. He frowned.
Amanda's words also flew into the car.
Was that woman a fool? She didn't know how to fight back.
Damn.
Finally, with a livid face, Ethan got out of the car. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
