If he truly cared, how could he have visited the hospital fewer than twice in an entire year? He had left her care and treatment in the hands of strangers.
In order to stop me from troubling Florence, he really went to great lengths.
It’s time to put an end to this three-year-long deception.
As I rushed to the hospital, I hadn't even entered the ward when I heard the nurses in the hallway gossiping.
"The Thornton Family is a prestigious household in Wildore, yet after a whole year of hospitalization, they still haven’t arranged for surgery? When I went to change the dressing, I saw that the old lady could barely hold on. How can her family not be anxious at all…?"
"Shh, don’t ask what you shouldn’t. The Granville Family has already spoken, even the director has to keep it under wraps. Looks like they don’t intend to save her, just dragging things out. They even replaced the special medication with glucose. There’s no way she’ll make it."
"She probably won’t last more than a couple of days… This family is truly ruthless. They have all that money, yet they won’t even save one person…"
Tears welled up in my eyes as I rushed into my mother’s hospital room.
