She had tried to persuade Francia for quite some time, but she was still being so aggressive.
Natalie's expression turned cold. "If you don't want to admit it, it's up to you."
Francia noticed that the threat was useless, thus she shouted at the top of her lungs, "My poor brother, this is how your daughter treats me. Are you there up in the skies? Open your eyes and take a look."
Natalie clenched her fists.
This time, she ignored Francia and immediately left.
Bowie watched as she left and hurriedly said, "Mom, there's no point arguing anymore. She's gone."
Francia stopped shouting.
She never thought that it would be useless to use James as an excuse this time.
Francia became a little anxious.
"Mom, Natalie is no longer taking us seriously." Bowie gritted her teeth.
Francia rolled her eyes.
"Bowie, let's get out of here." Francia made up her mind.
When Bowie heard this, she immediately objected, "Mom, I won't leave. Why should I leave when there's things to eat and drink here? I won't leave! Besides, didn't you say last time you wouldn't leave either?"
Francia lowered her voice and said, "Bowie, are you stupid? Do you really think that your mother will leave? Didn't you see how Natalie has been increasingly looking down upon your mother? It was useless for me to use your uncle as an excuse. We have to find another way."
After she said that, Francia whispered a few words in Bowie's ear.
Bowie asked doubtfully, "Mom, will this work?"
"Don't worry, it will," Francia said as she patted her chest.
The night had deepened.
Matthew and Selina stayed in the hospital.
Ludwik also insisted on staying.
All of them stayed in different wards.
As for Liselle, she stayed in Saoirse's ward, saying that she would watch over the patient.
The day after would be Matthew's operation.
Selina pressed her face against Matthew's chest.
She did not say anything and continued to press her face against his chest.
Matthew's hand gently caressed Selina's cheeks.
The two didn't say anything, but it felt like a thousand words could be heard in that silence.
Time passed by slowly, and in the blink of an eye, it was around five o'clock.
The sky was still very dark.
Liselle had woken up.
She woke up from a nightmare.
She dreamt that Saoirse was dead.
After Liselle woke up, she was drenched in cold sweat.
She hurriedly put her finger under Saoirse's nose, and found that she was still breathing.
Liselle held her hand tightly. "Miss, wake up. I beg you to wake up. Your being in this state is scaring me."
There was no response from Saoirse.
She had not woken up since the moment she'd collapsed.
Unknowingly, Liselle started to cry uncontrollably.
"Miss Saoirse was fine before this. Why did she suddenly have acute leukemia? There was nothing wrong with her body before this either."
Liselle pushed all the blame onto Matthew and Selina.
These two people must be the ones who had made Saoirse so angry that she fell sick.
Liselle felt a surge of hatred welling up in her heart.
However, she could do nothing about it.
In the end, that hatred turned into endless regret.
Liselle buried her head in her arms. "It's all my fault, Miss Saoirse. I shouldn't have given Mr. William those drugs. If he hadn't taken the drugs, he wouldn't have said that he wanted to marry you. If he didn't marry you, we wouldn't be here in the first place."
Liselle choked up as she spoke.
At the same time, Saoirse slowly opened her eyes.
She heard everything Liselle had said.
