Love Has its Will by Selena Lewis novel Chapter 264

Chapter 264

Jimmy left the hospital. Out of rage, Jimmy was about to find Brandon when his assistant called him. His assistant panicked and said helplessly, “Mr. Gilbert, our building has collapsed, two people died and thirty-two were injured. What should we do?”

Hearing that, Jimmy had his face turn pale. The veins on his forehead bulged. He didn’t know whether he couldn’t stand this blow or if the sunlight was too strong. He felt weak and almost fell.

“Mr. Gilbert…”

The assistant was worried.

“I’ll be right…”

Before the word “back” was uttered, Jimmy fell to the ground.

After the anesthetic, Tracy woke up. Her eyes slowly circled the ward. Tracy did not see the person she wanted to see and she bit her pale lips tightly, trembling out of excessive grief.

Two nurses walked in. Seeing Tracy, who was crying at that time, they did not show any sympathy. The nurses just said coldly, “Ms. Gilbert, you need to pay for the medical expenses. We tried to contact your father but we failed. So what do you do with it?”

Tracy was stunned for a moment before she understood what the nurses said.

Tracy took out her phone and called Jimmy, but he turned it off.

Tracy tried to call Jimmy a few more times, but she failed. She looked at the nurse and smiled, saying, “Maybe it’s run out of power. My dad should call me later.”

One nurse looked fretful as she took out her phone from her pocket and pointed at the news, saying to Tracy, “Look, your family is in trouble. I heard that you are going to go bankrupt. Your father’s creditors are all looking for him. He found a place to hide, and now no one knows where he is. Our hospital is not a charity organization. You have to pay the fees, otherwise, we won’t offer you any medicine.”

Tracy didn’t believe what the nurse said. Her eyelids flickered as she stroked her hair at the side of her temples. Then, she took a deep breath, trying to force a smile. “That’s impossible. Don’t worry, my dad will be here in a while.”

Tracy browsed through the phone page and her lips began to tremble uncontrollably. It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head.

The Gilbert family could not avoid trouble when something bad happened related to them.

Tracy’s lips turned even paler.

The nurses snorted and left.de

Tracy called Brandon, but Brandon did not answer the phone. She had to call Lucas. Soon, he arrived.

Standing at the head of the bed and looking down at Tracy, Lucas looked at Tracy with disdain, and asked coldly, “What can I do for you?”

Looking at Lucas’s cold eyes, Tracy realized that the Gilbert family had lost its power. She tried to raise her head. There was a moment when she had to rely on Lucas.

She had never cared about Lucas.

“Can you pay my medical expenses?” asked Tracy.

Lucas smiled and the coldness in his eyes melted away just like the snow, but the smile only lasted for a second.

“You know, L&S Limited has been in the red recently, and the business is not good.”

That was a tactful rejection.

Tracy bit her lips and said, “After all, we…”

Lucas sneered, lit a cigarette, and started smoking. Even when he saw Tracy covering her mouth and coughing, he did not extinguish the cigarette.

“What do you want to say?”

Lucas stared at Tracy angrily like a wolf.

“We had sex?”

Lucas snorted, and gradually, he laughed out loud and said, “Tracy, you never cared about me. If I hadn’t mistaken you for Chloe, I would never have touched you. If it weren’t for the baby in your belly that could help the Davis Group take over the Gilbert Group, I wouldn’t even have bothered to go to the studio to take you away. Now that the Gilbert Group is bankrupt, why should I help you?”

Tracy had never been insulted like that.

Tracy raised her hand and wanted to slap Lucas, but Lucas firmly held her hand and fiercely warned, “If it wasn’t for Chloe, I would have killed you already.”

Lucas kicked the bed and left.

The bed trembled and swayed violently. Tracy had experienced a uterine curettage and she needed to rest. But what Lucas did made Tracy’s operative wound bleed again.
