Winner Takes All
Chapter 20 Flaming Red Lips
When Jack arrived at LJ Hospital, his mother was in the ICU ward.
The priority was his mother's health.
If his mother were fine, then everything would be fine.
Otherwise, with his personality, he was not sure what he would do.
Jack looked grumpy as he sat outside the ICU ward.
Gritting his teeth, he sent a message to Katherine.
His tone was almost pleading.
"You disregarded my mother's life last time. And now you want to harm her for the second time? Please give her a break."
Five minutes later, Katherine replied.
But after seeing what Katherine replied, Jack couldn't suppress the anger inside him anymore.
She replied, "Jack, you are a liar! You are scum! You said that the 200,000 yuan was all you left to save your mother. Why is she still alive? You have money! Can't I help my brother to ask your mother for some money as a compensation for our divorce?"
Boom!
Jack smashed his fist against the wall. He gritted his teeth, "The Parry family and Katherine...you guys are pushing me to the edge!"
The door of the ICU ward opened.
Jack rushed forward and held Mr. Hale. He asked with tears, "Dr. Hale, how is my mother?"
Dr. Hale took off his mask and smiled in relief, "Don't worry, Mr Hughes. Fortunately, your mother was rescued promptly. She is fine now."
"Thank you, Dr. Hale." Jack was utterly grateful. He nearly knelt to Dr. Hale to express his gratitude.
Upon seeing that, Dr. Hale was stunned. He then stopped him from doing so.
Was that a joke?
Mr. Ward personally came to save Jack's mother. Mr. Hale couldn’t afford to take Jack's kneeling, neither was the head of the hospital.
Immediately, Dr. Hale advised solemnly, "As your mother's attending doctor, I have to tell you. I understand that you are hiding the fact that you have divorced your ex-wife because you don't want to agitate your mother. But I feel like your ex-wife is inconsiderate. Your mother's life could be in danger because of her."
"You are lucky this time. But what if your ex-wife does it again? Your mother is weak that she can't afford to take anymore hit."
Dr. Hale sighed before he turned around and left.
The smile on Jack's face vanished. He looked plain cold.
He clenched fists, and his veins popped out.
Last time, Katherine grabbed Jack's two hundred thousand yuan he meant to use for his mother’s treatment just for the down payment of her brother's new house.
This time, it was again for her brother's sake. Jack's mother almost died this time.
What Katherine did made him sick!
"To help your brother, you disregarded my mother's life?"
A glint of light flashed through Jack's eyes, "So you guys wish to have Tommy and Shirley engaged? I'll fool you guys around this time!"
