Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 267

With a fearless look, Alex was causing trouble nearby, attempting to snatch the pen from the medical staff's table without grasping the seriousness of the situation.

The medical staff also found him annoying and promptly stowed the pen into her coat pocket.

Alex grimaced at the medical staff and dashed over to seize the pen. When he failed, he inexplicably began yelling.

"Ah—"

His sharp, awful yell made several people in the infirmary frown.

This troublemaker was rude and unreasonable. He should understand something by the age of seven or eight. How did he develop such behavior?

Faced with Alex's persistent yelling, the medical staff had no choice but to give him the pen, finally silencing him.

...

Outside, the nanny was on the phone, recounting the incident to her employer.

Alex's mother was in a cheerful mood while playing poker and didn't bother to deal with the incident. She remarked, "What happened? Broken bones? Hmph, she must be trying to pull a scam! It's so unlucky to have this happen during the New Year. Don't worry. Just take my son and leave."

The nanny felt troubled, explaining, "I can't, madam. They won't let me go. They're blaming Mr. Alex and insisting on letting me take responsibility."

Alex's mother frowned when she heard that. It happened that another player won the game and smiled broadly.

As she lost money again, she became angry and pushed the cards away.

What bad luck!

"They won't let you leave? Just wait there. I'm coming over right now! I'd like to see who dares to defraud me. Since they've offended me, I won't let them go!"

Grabbing her bag, she stood up, paid the money, and prepared to leave.

"Hey! Why are you leaving so soon? Not up for more games? Could it be that you can't afford to lose?" someone quipped.

"More games? Someone defrauded my son at the ski resort! I'm heading over there to see who that b*tch is!"

After making the call, the nanny returned confidently, stating, "You guys wait here. Madam will be here shortly!"

"Wait?" Zoren remarked, "We need to get to the hospital now. We won't wait for anyone."

The nanny exclaimed, "You guys can't leave! Weren't you threatening us to take responsibility? Why do you want to leave while Madam is coming? Are you scared, huh?"

Violeta needed immediate hospitalization for an X-ray.

While the nanny was on the phone, Niall had already arranged for a car to come fetch them up.

They didn't have time to wait for the nanny's employer.

What if her employer didn't show up? They couldn't leave Violeta in pain here!

Liam suggested, "Niall, take Vio to the hospital first. Jasper and I will stay here."
