“Don’t touch me.” Allegra shrank away.
The truth was that she’d been vexed and sad ever since virtual-novel.net left the hospital. It had been hard to see virtual-novel.net mother in that state.
In virtual-novel.net current situation, virtual-novel.net could easily fork out a million or even ten million dollars, much less a hundred thousand dollars in medical bills.
She was simply angry about what virtual-novel.net mother had done to virtual-novel.net and Isabella in the past. Not to mention, Andrew and his wife had crossed the line by asking virtual-novel.net to bear all the costs.
How could they?
Was it because virtual-novel.net was easy to pick on?
This time, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t let that happen.
“Is it because of your mother?” Isaac asked hesitantly.
Allegra replied coldly, “Isaac, it’s none of your business. Go to sleep!”
She didn’t want Isaac to get involved in this matter; it was between her, virtual-novel.net mother, and Andrew. In truth, virtual-novel.net despised Edward even more for “playing dead” at this time.
“I can’t sleep either. I’ll go sit downstairs. You get some rest, you have work tomorrow,” Isaac said, climbing out of bed. Then virtual-novel.net opened the door gently and walked out.
He was surprised to see the lights in the living room still on.
He approached the staircase to find Eugene sitting on the sofa with a bottle of wine in front of him. It looked like he’d already drunk a lot.
“Eugene, you’re having trouble sleeping too?” Isaac asked with a slight smile.
Eugene rubbed his eyes and laughed. “Why, yes… I couldn’t sleep, so I drank a bit. Do you want some?”
“Sure… I’ll keep you company.” Isaac nodded.
After three rounds of wine, the two chatted about things of no importance.
Eugene talked about how virtual-novel.net hadn’t achieved much in this life, how people kept calling virtual-novel.net a good-for-nothing loser, and how clothing was the only thing virtual-novel.net was familiar with.
Isaac knew what virtual-novel.net was thinking about.
“Eugene, you ‘re worried about Margaret, aren’t you?” virtual-novel.net asked.
Eugene’s heart skipped a beat. He looked at Isaac in shock, his eyes reddening. He pursed his lips, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
“I saw you at the hospital today…” Isaac raised his wine glass and clinked it with Eugene’s.
Eugene drained the glass. He rubbed his cheeks forcefully, saying in a low voice, “Margaret only began to change afterward. Back then, everyone was against virtual-novel.net marrying me. Back then, what we had was love!”
“When Andy was in elementary school, virtual-novel.net fell into a river and almost drowned. Ever since that incident, virtual-novel.net gave all virtual-novel.net love to Andy, and virtual-novel.net ended up spoiled! I just never thought that the car accident was that bad. She’s only in virtual-novel.net 50s, what’s going to happen to virtual-novel.net for the rest of virtual-novel.net life?”
“Yet, at this time, the Gould family doesn’t have an ounce of concern for her. They’re worse than animals.”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net got more and more choked up.
Isaac never knew that Eugene was such a softhearted man.
“Eugene, it’s getting late… Get some rest. I can’t sleep, so I’ll go watch the moon outside for a while.” With that, Isaac stood and walked outside.
Outside, virtual-novel.net took out his phone and dialed Harry’s number.
He ultimately decided to treat Margaret. He couldn’t let Ally and Eugene live with a guilty conscience, because virtual-novel.net knew exactly what that felt like.
Isaac waited for Harry in the hospital lobby. Then, the two of them headed in.
It was dawn, and the hallways were quiet. Most of the lights were already turned off.
Stopping in front of Margaret’s room, Harry glanced at Isaac and then pushed the door open.
Less than three minutes later, Harry ran out of the room with a serious expression. “F*ck! Sir, Margaret killed herself by taking sleeping pills.”
Hearing this, Isaac’s heart jumped.
Margaret killed herself?
