After leaving Starlight Law Finn, Elias hopped into his sports car and called William
"Guess who I ran into at Ashley's office, Will?"
"Ms. Hoven." Ellaschackled, finding it amusing, "I wonder what she wanted to consult Ashley about. Could it be because you blocked her from finding work? "She's at her wit's end. That's why she plans to sue you."
William leaned back in his chair, one hand propping his temple, eyes hooded.
Elias continued. "If she bad poise to any other lawyri, no big deal, But Ashley is tough to handle "
Willum merely granted "oh"
Eliaschuckled. "But what are friends for? II she's troublesome, I'll handle her for
you
william changed the subject. "When's your wedding?"
"Mom's afraid of delays, so she set it on the fifth of next month. I wanted you to be my best man, but Mom said your prolonged bachelorhood is inauspicines. She insisted on Jayden"
Elias sighed. "Everyone knows Jayden and his girlfriend have been together since high school.
"That's a decade-long relationship without breaking up. What an inspiration to us all!"
After som
some idle chat, William hung up.
Considering what Fabian uncovered and Ellas's comments,
ts, William grabbed his car keys and lett the office
Leaving the law firm, Emelie purchased fruit and supplements at the mall,
Afterward, she bought a bouquet in the hospital lobby.
First, she asked the service desic She wanted to know which room the injured nurse from yesterday's incident was in
The nurse recognized her immediately. "You're the family member of the one causing trouble, aren't you!
Emelie paused, then said, "I want to apologize to Ms. Ingrid Hoopes. Can you tell me her room number?"
"Who knows if you're apologizing or up to something else? Sorry, we can't tell you where Ingrid is. Leave now!"
Emelie thought for a moment. Ingrid's injury was to herneck, so she tried the general surgery department.
Going room to room, she finally found Ingrid in the VIP ward
Ingrid had bandages wrapped around her neck. Her complexion was pallid as her mother, Wren, fød her.
Emelie stepped inside. "Hello, Ms. Hoopes."
Ingrid and Wren looked up,
Emelie was sincere. "I came to see you. I'm sorry. My dad acted impulsively yesterday and Injured you. I apologize on his behall
She offered the gilts. "Twill cover all your medical expenses. I'm so sorry."
Before Ingrid could respond, Wien erupted angrily.
"Apologies won't help! Don't you Imow your father nearly slit my daughter's that? She almost died!"
"Yes, I admit it's all our fault. I hope Ms. Hoopes can recover well. My dad didn't intend ham. He was distraught over my mother losing the heart for transplant and Before Emelle could finish speaking, Wren threw the glass of water at her face! Emelie instinctively closed her eyes as Wren yelled in anger, "My daughter is just a nurse Whatever disputes you have with the hospital are your business. "How dare you injure my daughter like this! You want us to forgive him? Dream on! Get out! Take your things and get out!"
When raised her hand to slap Emelie, who didn't dodge.
But, a second before the slap landed, Wren's hand was caught
A man's voice, fim yet gentle, intervened. Let's be tair. Her father was wrong to
injure someone, but it's also inappropriate for you to hit her rashly,"
Emelie looked up. The hospital's bright lights reflected off Samoel's glasses, briefly blinding her
"Get out! Both of you get out! We will never agree to a settlement! We're going to make sure he goes to jail!"
Weenshoved Emelie out, tossed her belongings after her, and slammed the door shut loudly.
Emelle sighed. Samuel took a tissue from his pocket and helped wipe the water off her face.
She wasn't wearing makeup. Her skin was clean but lacking color.
Emelie looked at him, "Mr. Swanson, what are you doing here?
"I stumbled upon a video of you online. So, I guessed you'd come to the hospital today and decided to check"
Information could easily be leaked and accessed online nowadays. It was not surprising that Samuel lie about Ronan's hospital incident
Emelie took the tissue from him and casually tucked her damp hair behind her eat, Samwel noticed a small red inole resting below her earlobe, oddly
enchanting.
Chapter 119 Her Intention
Samuel averted his eyes and crouched to retrieve the fallen fruit, putting it back
in the basket.
Enelle helped gather them, rearranging the basket neatly. She left it outside the room, telling the nurse that these were for Ingrid. Whether Ingrid accepted it was up to her. The gesture was Emelir's.
Smelle and Samuel left the ward together to the elevator, Samuel glanced at her, his eyes downcast. "Don't be angry," he said softly. Emelle smiled faintly, "I'm not. Wren lashed out because my father harmed her daughter. If someone hurt me,
my parents would react the same way,
defending
It was a matter of empathy. So she understood and couldn't abandon her father.
Samuel spoke calmly, "I suggest not seeing them again for now." "I have to. I need their forgiveness so my father gets a reduced sentence. As the elevator reached the ground floor, they walked out side by side.
Emelie spoke softly, "I know it won't be easy. They're only human. But if I
sincerely visit enough times, they'll eventually calm down. Once they're willing to
discuss compensation, it'll be easier"
Samuel frowned, imagining the indignities she would have to endure.
He looked at her with pity, "So, what do you plan to do now?"
"I'm going to meet with the hospital management, I want to try to gain their
understanding "
"They won't meet you during this sensitive time."
"know. But my friend introduced me to one of them, Mr. Ben Smith. I'll test the
waters first."
They met Ben at the hospital's backdoor.
Samuel kept watch.
Ben glanced around before speaking quietly.
"This incident already sparked online outrage, Management is watching public sentiment closely before deciding on a stance. Right now, nothing is certain."
If public opinion leaned toward sympathy, they'd let it go.
But if anger demanded harsh punishment, they'd pursue charges.
Emelie bit her lip. "Can't you meet the other people in the management team?
Let me try reasoning with them."
"It's too sensitive right now. I'm already talding a risk meeting you.
"If anyone sees us, they'll accuse me of taldne bribes from you."
Emelie didn't press further, thanking him instead. The leader hurriedly lett
Emelie walked over to Samuel, forcing a joke. "What an honor for a distinguished
professor like yourself to be my
lookout"

Emelie chuckled. "That's unlikely."
"And it's about to rain. Let me drive you home."
Emelle nodded slightly. "okay."
As they left the hospital, they happened to run into Daphne in the hallway.
Daphne was with a nurse, and since no one else was around, they couldn't avoid
each other.
Of course, Emelie didn't need to avoid her. She walked past without a sidelong
glance
As they brushed past each other, Daphne called her. "Emelie "
Emelie ignored her.
They had already fallen out. There was no need for pretenses.
