Chapter 1567
When Isla went out to attend the birthday party with her friends, Tina was the only one left in the hospital.
After a lap, she woke up but found that Isla had not come back yet. She had nothing to do, so she tidied the ward and bought some fresh fruit from the stalls in the back street of the hospital. She carefully chose the fruits and returned to the hospital.
"Tina!"
As soon as she entered the hall, she heard someone calling her name.
Tina turned around and saw Lilith fiercely striding towards her with a bag.
She came with evil intentions. Tina frowned and asked, "Mrs. Koo, what's the matter?"
Tina quickly figured out her purpose.
Lilith would not stop her for no reason. There were probably only two things related to her recently. One was their previous conflict in Genuine Jade. That time, Lilith was utterly humiliated. As an arrogant and proud woman, she would be too ashamed to mention it again before Tina. Thus, Tina thought she did not come for that.
The other thing was probably the news with the photo of her and Dylan.
Lilith stopped before her. Through with splendid jewels, she looked mean as she asked furiously, "How dare you ask me? You little slut, how dare you seduce my son again!"
Tina was right. Lilith came over because of the news.
Like Wilson, she was the last person to know the news.
Last time, someone saw it when she was driven out of the Genuine Jade and spread the humiliating thing among her upper-class female friends, who sneered at her for a long time. Lilith could not bear it and escaped abroad for vacation.
She shopped like crazy and finally let go of the previous embarrassment. However, to her great surprise, she learned that her son was with Tina again just as she returned home.
Wilson removed all the news from the media and sealed the paparazzo's workshop.
Yet, Lilith accidentally saw it from the newspaper delivered to her house every day.
How could she still sit still?
Tina said coldly, "I didn't!"
Lilith retorted sarcastically, "No? How dare you argue with me?"
Tina raised her chin slightly with pride. "I'm not lying. I met him for the sake of work!"
After that, she ignored Lilith and turned to walk toward the elevator.
But why would Lilith let her go? She caught up with her in two or three steps and reached out to pull her hard.
Tina stumbled, and the fruit bag in her hand was also ripped off.
The oranges and the grapes in the bag were scattered all over the floor.
Lilith came from a rich family. After marrying into the Koo family, she had been pretended to be an elegant wife and a great mother. However, in reality, she was a vixen in the bones.
Lilith pointed at her nose and shouted, "Bah, do you think I will believe your bullshit? You have been a greedy woman full of wild ambitions since you were adopted by the Koo family five years ago. We provided you with a privileged life, but you secretly seduced my son. Shameless slut! I did not expect you to keep on plaguing him!"
Tina's anger rose at that remark.
In the public place, Tina held back her anger. "The innocent will keep themselves out of trouble!"
Lilith, fuming with rage, gritted his teeth when she saw her pretending to be pure and lofty. Her expression turned ferocious. "The innocent? What makes you think so? Tina, you're no longer the innocent girl five years ago. You've been raped and gave birth to a child! You are not even good enough to be my son's servant. Are you aware of that? It looks like I have to teach you a lesson today!" As Lilith said this, she raised her hand up in a fiery manner.
Tina narrowed her eyes warily.
She moved her feet slightly, intending to take precautions in advance when Lilith took action.
However, someone blocked Lilith with one arm before she did anything.
Tina looked up along the light blue sleeves and saw the curly, messy hair before a man's forehead. His pair of naughty eyes expressed strong passion. He kept in a handsome posture, radiating self-confidence all the time.
The man dressed in such an exaggerate and artistic way...
Seeing this, Tina figured out who he was and said in surprise, "Desmond?"
Desmond came with a group of people who seemed to have just finished filming the advertisement in the hospital.
He raised his hand and flipped his curly hair, raising his eyebrows. "Are you pleasantly
surprised?"
Tina nodded. "Well, I was surprised..."
"Let me go!" When Lilith broke free of his grip, she stumbled and almost fell back. She said grumpily, "Sir, kindly remind you not to meddle in our affairs. You'd better go somewhere else!" However, Desmond smiled slightly. "Sorry, but I like watching the fun and meddling in others' business!"
"..." Lilith was too angry to say anything.
"Tut-tut," Desmond said carelessly, "Old witch, I have to kindly remind you that you're in a hospital, a public place. It's not a place where you can act wildly. And with me here today, you can't lay your hands on her!"
Lilith's eyes widened in anger as she shrieked, "How dare you call me old witch?!"
Desmond did not want to waste his time arguing with her. He picked his ears and ordered his subordinates behind him. "The hospital is a place to save lives and heal the wounded. An old witch making trouble here ruined the civilized atmosphere. How can patients calm down to see doctors? Let's do something good to the public and drive her out!"
His subordinates were all burly men. After receiving the order, they immediately went forward.
"Are you bandits? Do you know who I am? How can you use violence in public?!" Lilith did not expect him to take it seriously. In angry and fear, she shouted at Tina, "Tina! What a surprise! You're so capable and can always get a man to support you! You seduce other men while pestering my son. A slut..." Tina's face turned ugly.
Desmond berated unhappily. "What are you waiting for?! Throw the troublemaker out right now!"
In a hurry, Lilith took a few steps back. Seeing that they were outnumbered, she was afraid of being rudely handled, so so snorted coldly and turned away.
Only then did Tina let out a sigh of relief.
There were quite a few young girls amongst the staff who clustered around Desmond, their eyes sparkling with admiration. Seeing his righteous act, they could not help exclaiming him excitedly. "Wow, you're so manly!"
"You bravely saved a woman like a hero in the TV series. You're superb!"
Desmon was pleased by the flattery.
Tina saw this and said sincerely, "Thank you for what you've done just now!"
It was the second time that he helped her.
She might not have suffered if he had not appeared here, but she would have to spend some time and energy to deal with Lilith, whom she hated.
"You're welcome." Desmond raised his eyebrows.
He was proud as a peacock, and Tina echoed, "You're indeed cool!"
"Of course!" Desmond flung his head backward and then suddenly approached her. "I helped you once again! How is it? Are you in love with me now?" Tina was speechless and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
