The Don's Orphan Wife Is A Mafia Empire Princess (Elara) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 18 An Ungrateful Wretch

Leah Foster followed Ethan Miller into the house. Looking at William Miller who came running over, a hint of disgust. flashed in Leah Foster’s eyes.

He always said he liked her the most, but now he was calling for Evelyn Hart. A child who wasn’t her own was indeed an ungrateful wretch who couldn’t be properly raised.

Considering Ethan Miller was also there, Leah Foster smiled and touched William Miller’s head. “Is William missing your mom?”

A hint of disappointment flashed in William Miller’s eyes, and he said stubbornly, “No, I’m not. I’m really happy she’s not back.”

But his tone revealed his sadness.

Ethan Miller’s eyes flickered, and his fingers twitched slightly. Evelyn Hart hadn’t been back for three days, and she didn’t even call. What’s more, it seemed that she really didn’t want her job at the hospital anymore.

Ethan Miller felt a faint sense of fear in his heart.

Leah Foster handed the snacks and drinks in her hand to William Miller. “Okay, there’s nothing to be ashamed of about missing your mom. But I think Dr. Hart will come back when she calms down. These are the snacks I brought for William. See if you like them.”

A child’s emotions come and go quickly. William Miller, who had been missing Evelyn Hart just a moment ago, had his attention instantly diverted when he saw so many snacks.

“Chips! Chocolate! And my favorite cola. Auntie Leah, you’re the best.”

William Miller hugged the snacks and went to the sofa.

Ethan Miller, for once, remembered Evelyn Hart’s previous admonitions and frowned to remind him, “Don’t eat too many snacks. Come back to the hospital with me later. If you dare to sneak out again, I’ll lock you up.”

William Miller muttered in dissatisfaction, “Dad, you’re just like Mom, always nagging so much. It’s so annoying.”

Ethan Miller stood there, looking a bit dejected.

Leah Foster was quick to notice Ethan Miller’s mood and walked up to him to soothe him softly. “Ethan, are you missing Dr. Hart?”

She furrowed her brows and said, “Why don’t you go and bring Dr. Hart back? You two are husband and wife. Quarrels between husband and wife are easily resolved. Dr. Hart is a woman. She just wants you to pay more attention to her.”

“She misunderstood our relationship, but I don’t care. If necessary, we can just stop having contact with each other in the future.”

Ethan Miller looked at Leah Foster frowning and instinctively felt sorry for her. “What are you talking about? We’re innocent. If she wa make a fuss, let her. Huh, the act of running away from home won’t work on me.”

Leah Foster leaned

head on Ethan Miller’s chest and sobbed, “Ethan, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for

Ethan Miller interrupted Leah Foster’s words and put all the blame on Evelyn Hart. “Okay, Leah. You don’t have to blame yourself. It’s Evelyn Hart who’s narrow-minded. It has nothing to do with you.”

He soothed Leah Foster softly and suppressed the thought of regretting letting Evelyn Hart leave.

Evelyn Hart was busy piecing together the information, but the crucial part had been damaged. She rubbed her forehead and resignedly flipped through the previous doctor’s records.

Leo Walker.

She had a vague impression of this person, but not much.

He was a person who was meticulous about his work.

Unfortunately, previously, due to the family members concealing the medical history, the treatment was improper, and the patient died. The family members came to the hospital to cause trouble, and Dr. Walker couldn’t bear the humiliation and chose to resign.

Evelyn Hart was in a state of anxiety and started contacting her former colleagues. “Olivia, do you remember Dr. Walker? Do you have his contact information?”

Unfortunately, after making a round of calls, Evelyn Hart found no clues.

Leo Walker was a person who didn’t pay much attention to socializing and had a rather indifferent relationship with the people in the hospital. At least among the people she knew, no one could get in touch with him.

Just as Evelyn Hart was thinking of a solution, Caleb Gray called again. “Evelyn, how’s it going? Have you come up with a solution? My friend’s situation isn’t looking good.”

Caleb Gray’s voice sounded very downcast. Evelyn Hart felt sorry for him and comforted him, “Caleb, don’t worry. I’ve had some ideas recently, but I still need to verify them. Your friend will definitely be out of danger.”

“I still need some information from the hospital where I used to work…”

Caleb Gray interrupted Evelyn Hart’s words. “Whatever you need, just go and get it. I’ve already talked to the hospital director.”

Evelyn Hart felt relieved, comforted Caleb Gray a few more words, and then hung up the phone.

She looked at the incomplete document and let out a soft sigh. Well, what was coming couldn’t be avoided, and it was for Caleb Gray’s sake.

The next day.

Evelyn Hart decided to go to the hospital to look for the previous doctor’s information. As soon as she walked into the hospital, she unexpectedly met William Miller.

He was holding Leah Foster’s hand and looked very happy. Ethan Miller, who was following behind them, seemed to be in a good mood and had a gentle look in his eyes.

However, he looked a bit listless and had dark circles under his eyes, as if he hadn’t had a good rest.

Leah Foster had a smile on her face, looking just like a virtuous mother.

The three of them standing together were just like the photo she had seen. A family of three, perhaps this was what it looked like.

When William Miller saw her, his eyes seemed to light up for a moment. Evelyn Hart was taken aback. When she looked again, William Miller’s eyes were filled with disgust and resentment.

Resentment?

There was a hint o

iusion in Evelyn Hart’s eyes. She didn’t understand what William Miller was resenting her for. She had given him ti. freedom he wanted, hadn’t she?

Evelyn Hart didn’t want to pay attention and walked straight towards the records room. When passing by William Miller, she didn’t even pause.

She didn’t expect that William Miller would rush in front of her and block her way. “You said you wouldn’t care about me anymore. What are you doing here to see me now? I’m really happy with Auntie Leah. I have endless snacks and cola every day.”

Evelyn Hart opened her mouth but ultimately chose to remain silent. After all, he was her own son.

Evelyn Hart’s gaze fell on Ethan Miller. “Ethan Miller, since William has chosen you as his father, you should at least do what a father is supposed to do.”

Although Ethan Miller didn’t understand what this meant, it didn’t stop him from hearing that Evelyn Hart was accusing him of not being a qualified father.

He looked at Evelyn Hart and laughed out of anger. “What do you mean? Now you’ve abandoned your husband and son. What right do you have to accuse me of not taking good care of William?”

“He’s very happy with me now. I don’t need you to teach me a lesson.”

“If you really care about William, I’ll give you a chance. Move back. Don’t be ungrateful.”

Ethan Miller stared at Evelyn Hart, his eyes carrying a hint of faint expectation.

He had to admit that since Evelyn Hart left a few days ago, his life had been in a mess. Although there were nannies at home, the food never tasted right.

Especially William Miller, who was always throwing tantrums and had driven away several nurses they had hired.

Although Leah Foster would help, she also had her own things to do.

He was busy with work during the day and had to take care of William Miller at night. He just felt completely exhausted.

Leah Foster heard Ethan Miller’s words and felt a sense of crisis. She came up and said, “Dr. Hart, although I know I shouldn’t say this, you’re still William’s mother. How can you ignore him when he’s sick?”
