Aveline said, "Go ahead and sue if you want, but before you do, just know that all this yelling in public and getting physical is more than enough reason for the police to haul you in for questioning."
The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then appeared slightly guilty.
She definitely didn't want to end up at the police station!
Her eyes darted around as she quickly retorted, "Forget about that for now. Since my daughter is in there, why not let me in to see her? Something serious happened, and she didn't even tell us. We're worried about her!"
Worried? Aveline could hardly see any concern in her demeanor!
Aveline replied, "With the way you all were acting just now like you were ready to tear her apart the moment you saw her, how could I possibly let you in? She still needs to rest. You should leave."
"You!" The woman bristled. "How dare you try to send us away? I'm Annie's mother, we're her family! No matter what you say, you're just an outsider. Even if the police come, you have no right to stop me from seeing my daughter. Move aside, move aside!"
With that, she tried to push Aveline out of the way.
Aveline sidestepped, avoiding her touch.
But the reality was clear—she couldn't keep blocking them from seeing Annie forever.
So, what should she do now?
Give them money?
Absolutely not.
Aveline's expression grew colder as the middle-aged woman reached out to push her again.
Just then, the door to the hospital room opened.
Annie stepped out.
The woman turned to Aveline and marched toward her, pointing at her own face with a shameless and provocative grin.
Aveline felt a wave of frustration and helplessness wash over her.
There was no reasoning with someone like this!
Seeing Aveline’s face turning red with anger but unable to utter a word, the woman let out a triumphant sneer.
However, before she could continue, a sudden force struck her from behind, sending her sprawling face-first onto the floor!
"Ouch!"
She cried out in pain, lying flat on the ground and making no attempt to get up. "Who? Who kicked me? Oh, my back, my back is broken! It hurts so much, oh, it hurts so much! Call a doctor, quickly! Check if my back is broken! I'm telling you, whoever broke my back must pay me two hundred thousand dollars, or you can get ready to go to jail!"
