My Three Darlings by Anonymous novel Chapter 95

Chapter 95

Two nurses were whispering in the hospital corridor. “The director just lost his temper and said that Mr. John used his name and let others retrieve the medical records from the asylum…” “Why did Mr. John suddenly care about the patients in from the asylum?” “You don’t know, but there is a woman who is very miserable… She went crazy because her child died and she recovered with great difficulty. Today, her current husband knows about her past…” “She was under the rain and sad. Now, she is still lying in our hospital in a coma… What a pity.” The nurses’ words stopped Lucija. She pondered for a moment and a cold smile appeared on her face. Could the poor woman mentioned by these nurses be Beau’s newlywed wife? She strode over. “Who’s the woman you’re talking about?” Seeing Lucija coming over, the nurses looked at each other and dared not speak. Lucija frowned and took out a stack of money from her bag. “Go ahead.” After the atmosphere was quiet for a long time, a nurse nerved herself to stand up and said, “We were talking about the female patient in room 302…” Room 302 was Eliza’s ward. Lucija coldly narrowed her eyes and took out another pile of money from her bag. “Is there any more details?” The nurses pressed their lips together and fell silent. Lucija threw the money on the ground indifferently and turned to the stairwell at the end of the corridor. After making sure that there was no one around, she took out her mobile phone and dialed a number, “Bridget, help me investigate a woman.” The woman’s voice on the other end of the line was cold and low. “What for?” “The woman I want to investigate is called Eliza. She gave birth to a child before, and I want her specific information.” 1 There was no evidence. Right now, she only heard gossips about Eliza from the nurses. These couldn’t be used as evidence. She needed evidence to convince Jory.   Although Jory was kind, he was still a traditional old man. Once the evidence was conclusive, there was no need for her to do anything. Jory would personally chase her away. “I am very busy now.”

The woman on the other end of the phone said impatiently, “Why don’t you investigate it yourself?” “Bridget, it’s rare for me to ask for help. You can’t do this to me, can you?” “Lucija, I am not your servant.” Lucija showed a faint smile. “Bridget, look at what you say. Of course I know you are busy.” “Are you busy looking for a surrogate mother?” Lucija’s words made Bridget fall silent for a long time. After a while, the sound of keyboard typing could be heard on the phone, “Let me check.” “Thank you for your hard work, Bridget.” Lucija flattered her with a smile. “I knew it. You will definitely help me with such a small matter.” “After all, you helped me solve all the problems five years ago.” 2 Hearing that she mentioned five years ago, Bridget on the other side of the phone suddenly became depressed. “It was you who didn’t handle the matter correctly five years ago.” “I told you not to run around when you pretend to be pregnant. You have exposed yourself that you are not pregnant. You can’t blame me.” Lucija sneered. “I didn’t blame you. I just want to catch up with you. Why are you so sensitive?” Bridget didn’t waste any more time talking to her. “What’s the name of the woman you’re investigating?” “Eliza.” “E-L-I-Z–A?” “That’s right.” There was a long silence on the other end of the phone. After a long while, Bridget lowered her voice and said, “Just give up.” Lucija raised her eyebrows and her voice instantly cooled down. “What do you mean?” “The information about her child’s death is fake. If you use these fake materials to  attack her, sooner or later you will make a fool of yourself.” “It’s fake?” Lucija frowned fiercely. “How can it be fake…” “It’s fake.” On the other end of the phone, Bridget’s voice sounded a little impatient. “Do you remember that I forged a medical record for a woman’s dead child five years ago?” “That woman… is Eliza.” “Once Beau knows everything, guess if you can still live.” Lucija clenched the phone, and she couldn’t move as if she had been struck by lightning. “How is this possible…” Eliza was that woman from back then!? How could there be such a coincidence in this world? “Bridget, are you sure… it’s her?” “I handled everything. Of course I’m sure!” “If it weren’t for the fact that I found someone to perform a mental disease evaluation on her and forcefully washed away her memory from the past six months, do you think you are still able to stay in Valentine family now?” Lucija panicked. “Then what should we do…” “Nothing much.” Bridget paused for a while and continued, “Either she dies or you die. There’s no other choice.” “We need to make a long-term plan for this matter. We can’t act rashly and alert the her. If she remembers everything, you’ll die!” After that, Bridget directly hung up the phone. Lucija stood stiffly on the spot, feeling that all her strength had been taken away. Before today, she had never taken Eliza seriously. “As a stand-in actress who’s not even qualified to be an actress, what trouble could she cause?” In the past, she always felt that she had lived in the Valentine family for ten years and had been complimented by others as Beau’s fiancée as well, so Eliza was just something new for Beau. But she never thought that Eliza was the woman five years ago… If she recalled the past, and if Beau found out that the woman from five years ago  had not died… Lucija felt that her brain was going to explode! “How could…” “No, I can’t let Eliza stay with Beau anymore.”

That woman was like a ticking time bomb that could blow up anytime, revealing what happened five years ago! If Beau found out that it was her who had set up the fire, and her who had his daughter… 2 Lucija broke out in a cold sweat. “Hey, isn’t this Miss Yates?” Before Lucija’s cold sweat had subsided, a man’s teasing voice sounded in her ears. She came back to her senses and quickly looked at the direction of the voice. At the stairs, Owen arms folded in front of his chest as he looked at her calmly. “You look terrible. Have you’ve been dumped?” Lucija rolled her eyes at him, put away her mobile phone, and tried to walk past him to go out. But she didn’t expect that her legs went soft after hearing what Bridget had said just now. As soon as she took a step, she threw herself directly in the direction of Owen’s arms Owen took a quick step back. With a “bang”, Lucija’s whole face fell directly to the ground. O “Tsk, tsk, tsk. You’re really careless.” Owen’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “Thank goodness I dodged quickly. Otherwise, I would’ve been crushed to death by you.”
