Chapter 271
Grace looked troubled. She didn't have that much money left and hadn't had any income for a long time. Daisy could tell from her expression that she couldn't come up with the money. Daisy's eyes narrowed coldly. "I can see you're not willing to help at all! Shedding crocodile tears!"
""
"Sis! Brian is here!" At that moment, Carson suddenly interrupted Grace.
Grace looked outside and indeed saw Brian walking towards them with Louise. She hastily took Austin from Carson and quickly ducked into an examination room.
Meanwhile, Carson warned Daisy, "Mom, you're not allowed to tell him about Sis and the child!"
Daisy glared and gave him a disdainful look. "You're all so useless!"
Brian and Louise had entered, and they immediately spotted the members of the Sherman family. Louise looked slightly surprised and turned to Brian. "Brian, aren't those Grace's parents?" Brian nodded slightly.
"Don't you want to say hello?" Louise asked.
Brian pursed his lips, his brow furrowing slightly. At the same time, Daisy was eyeing him expectantly, wanting to approach and speak with him.
Brian decided to ignore her and head upstairs, but Daisy called out. "Mr. Francis."
Brian stopped in his tracks. He glanced at Louise and said, "You go ahead upstairs. I'll be there in a moment."
Louise nodded understandingly.
Grace's heart raced inside the
examination room as she listened to the familiar voices outside. Carson, was getting anxious, fearing she might say something she shouldn't. He quickly stood before Daisy and said, "My mom just wanted to say hello to you; there's nothing important. Mr. Francis, you should go upstairs to see your fiancée."
Brian's gaze darkened. He looked at Frederick's injured leg and then at Daisy. "What's going on?"
Daisy hurriedly explained, "It's all
because of Grace's incompetence. Her dad got injured, and now they
can't even afford the hospitalC0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
expenses. She can't even pay for his hospitalization."
Brian understood who Daisy was. She just wanted money. But she wasn't going to get the answer she wanted. "Is that so? Then what is she doing? Don't you know?" Brian said. This time, Carson was the first to respond. "That's what I want to ask you, too. Where is my sister?"
Brian looked into his eyes. "Do you not know where your sister is?"
Carson took a deep breath. "Don't say I don't know. Even if I do know, I wouldn't tell you. Would my sister be too scared to come home if it weren't for you?"
Brian didn't say anything, but the aura around him grew even colder.
Fearing Carson might provoke him, Daisy stepped in to smooth things over. "Mr. Francis, don't listen to Carson's nonsense. He doesn't understand anything. It's not
anyone's fault, either. It's all becouse
Grace is incompetent and can't afford the hospital fees. Just let Frederick be discharged of his leg worsens, Carson and I will care for things at home." Daisy sighed.
Carson rubbed his forehead, wishing he could cover her mouth.
Brian Francis suddenly spoke up. "How much?"
Daisy immediately responded, "Twenty thousand dollars."
"Take it to cover the hospital fees. Consider it my debt to Grace," Brian said as he wrote a check and handed it to her.
Daisy's eyes lit up as she eagerly snatched the check from him. Brian turned around and strode upstairs, and Grace watched his retreating figure, feeling a mix of emotions.
