Violet said with a pale face, "I won't let my mother be buried until the truth about the cause of my mother's death is revealed!"
Otherwise, her mother wouldn't rest in peace!
Stanley understood her feelings, so he was not surprised by her decision.
When his grandfather passed away, he was the same. He was unwilling to deal with the funeral of his grandfather.
In the end, it was the people from the Murphy family who joined forces to persuade him, and then he agreed.
Back in the ward, Violet washed her face and hands with cold water, then lay on the bed and closed her eyes.
Stanley stood by the bed, "Don't sleep. Eat something before going to sleep. I have already asked Fraser to buy it."
"No, I can't eat it. I'm not in the mood." Violet waved her hand wearily. Her small face was full of self-sorrows.
Stanley couldn't bear seeing her like this. After squinting his eyes, he took her hand and pulled her up from the hospital bed.
Violet didn't expect that he would suddenly pull her like this. She was taken aback and opened her eyes, "What are you doing..."
"Mr. Murphy, the meal is here." She just said some words when she was interrupted by Fraser who came in outside.
Stanley gave a hmm. Then he took over the lunch box in Fraser's hands and opened it. After that, he handed it over to Violet, "Eat!"
Violet shook her head, "I really can't eat it!"
"Eat!" Stanley pursed his lips tightly, his tone full of commands.
An anger rose in Violet's heart. She looked at him with tearful eyes, "Stanley, you clearly know that my mother has passed away and what my mood is now. But you still force me to eat. What are you...?"
"If you want to have good physical strength to investigate the truth of your mother's death, just eat obediently!" Stanley interrupted her in a deep voice.
Violet opened her mouth slightly, but couldn't say anything.
Yes, he was right. If she didn't eat, she wouldn't have the strength to investigate these things, or to deal with her mother's funeral.
Thinking of this, Violet covered her face and cried again. Her attitude was not so tough this time.
Stanley knew that she figured it out, so he sighed slightly, took away her hands covering her face and put a pair of chopsticks into her hands. His voice softened, "Just eat some. For the sake of your mom, you can't fall down, understand?"
Violet bit her lips and gave a hmm.
Stanley handed her the lunch box again.
This time, Violet didn't refuse. She took over the it with trembling hands, and then cried while eating.
Even if she was sad and had no appetite, she resisted the feeling of vomiting and swallowed the food into her stomach.
But after eating about the half, Stanley took the lunch box out of Violet's hands, "Okay, enough. You haven’t eaten for a day. You can't eat too much at once. Rest."
Violet had no objection. She obediently pulled the quilt and lay down, then turned her back to Stanley.
Stanley put the lunch box aside, without disturbing her. Then he turned around and went out gently.
"Mr. Murphy, is Mrs. Murphy asleep?" Fraser asked.
Stanley closed the door of the ward, "Yes, you can go back first. I will accompany her these two days. You are responsible for the company. Call me if there is something."
"Got it." Fraser replied and then left.
Not long after he left, Bella came over with the two children.
Bella was also one of the people who knew about Lily's accident. Stanley called her when Violet was in a coma. The purpose was to let her pick up the children in the kindergarten in the afternoon because he and Violet were not available.
So as soon as Bella picked up the two children, she rushed here with them.
"Mr. Murphy." Bella looked at Stanley, just about to say something.
The two children broke free of her hand and ran towards Stanley.
"Dad, what's the matter with Grandma?" Calvin, with red eyes, stood in front of Stanley, raised his head, and asked hurriedly.
