Love in Prime Years novel Chapter 8

“Ah!”

Lillian burst out crying so miserable as if someone was going to kill her. She held her face firmly, however, no matter how great strength she used, the pain only increased instead of decreasing.

Slap! Lawrence came in and slapped on Amelia’s face, tilting her head. Despite blood was running wild from the corner of her mouth, Amelia could only feel funny instead of painful.

My beloved man was blind!

“My face!” Lillian’s face swelled up, looking extremely terrible. Lillian was gritting her teeth due to the great pain, “Lawrence, it hurts, it hurts so much…I can’t open my eyes! Am I going blind?”

“Lillian, I won’t let anything happen to you!” Lawrence softly scooped Amelia up in his arms and went directly to the doctor. He suddenly turned around when he was near the door. He looked at Amelia in a dominant manner and said to her word by word:

“Amelia, you’d better prey nothing will happen to Lillian; otherwise, I will make you suffer!”

“Well!” Amelia laughed at herself in a mocking way. Both of her children were going to die, her little baby in her belly, as well as Leigh. She was already suffering and wanted to see how Lawrence would make her undergo more pain!

It was lucky that the ribs soup cooled in the pot and wasn’t boiling; hence, Lillian wasn’t disfigured, nor going blind.

However, she looked terrible and pitiful because she was punched by Amelia and was scalded.

Dorothy hurriedly arrived at the hospital after hearing what happened to Lillian without even waiting for Dougie.

She heard someone was talking before she went to Lillian’s ward.

The door was half-open, leaving only a narrow crack in between. She could clearly see from the crack that Megan, Amelia’s birth mother, was holding Lillian’s hand tightly and kept on crying.

“Lillian, how could we survive if something severe really happens to you?”

“Mom, don’t worry about me. Lawrence will protect me and he won’t let Amelia go easily!”

Megan dried up her tears and continued, “That bitch went too far. I also won’t let her go easily! How dare she do such a thing to my dear daughter?”

Dorothy hesitated before getting in after hearing Megan’s words.

She was a mother and knew well how a mother loved her own daughter. She couldn’t imagine there was such a kind of mother who would call her own child a bitch!

She felt something was wrong subconsciously and then heard Megan said, “Lillian, what could we do if your real identity is found by others?”
