“It's not me but Ms. Lineker. Something happened to her, and we're now in the hospital.”
Wendy was not a local, and she had not gone home to celebrate Christmas this year.
Hence, she rushed to the hospital after receiving a call from Wilma.
She did not know what to do when she saw how Wilma was beaten to a pulp.
At that time, the first person who crossed her mind was Sophie.
If Ms. Sophie knows about this, she'll surely help us because she always treats all the employees at Transfix Cosmetics well.
“Which hospital are you two in?”
Isn't Ms. Lineker pregnant? What's going on? What can happen to a newlywed?
Wendy then sent the address of the hospital to Sophie.
Immediately, the latter said to Tristan, who was driving, “Don't go home yet. Let's head to this hospital.”
Tristan knew how much she cared for her staff at Transfix Cosmetics. Hence, he did not utter a word but did as she said and drove her to the hospital.
When they arrived, Wilma was still in the emergency room.
Meanwhile, Wendy felt much better upon seeing Sophie in person.
“Ms. Sophie, that man is too much! He actually beat Ms. Lineker up on Christmas Day!” It was clearly a case of domestic violence.
How dare he have the audacity to hit Ms. Lineker!
“What should we do, Ms. Sophie? It wasn't easy for Ms. Lineker to have found her happiness. Yet, it turns out that her life isn't as blissful as she thought it would be at all.” Wendy had completely lost her faith in love.
Wilma was so happy a few days ago. She's not a demanding person, so why did it end up like this?
“Where's Phineas Lehner?”
Phineas was Wilma's husband. Sophie had a good memory, so even though she had only met him once, she remembered his full name.
“I don't know. After getting a call from Ms. Lineker, I went to her place and saw that her house was a complete mess. Phineas was nowhere to be found.”
“Okay, I got it. Don't worry; we'll wait here together.”
Half an hour later, Wilma was wheeled out of the emergency room.
When Sophie saw her, she instinctively clenched her fists tightly.
That damn Phineas! What was he thinking? How could he hurt her so badly?
Wilma's face had swelled up as a consequence of the repeated hitting. There was not an area on her face that was not bruised or injured.
It was hard to imagine a prideful person like Wilma would let herself end up being pummeled to a pulp.
Anyone who saw her in that state would have felt terribly sad.
“Wendy, why did you call Ms. Sophie here? It's Christmas.” Ms. Sophie has always been very busy. How can she find time to take care of our petty affairs?
As soon as Sophie heard those words, she walked to Wilma and grabbed her hand.
“Don't think too much, Ms. Lineker. All you need to do now is rest.”
Wilma had always been a feisty woman.
She really thought that she had found her happiness. Ironically, things turned out totally different for her. Now, she felt extremely pathetic. As if that was not enough, Sophie had to witness her in her most miserable state.
“Ms. Sophie, I lost my baby.” Wilma had been ready to accept any outcome, no matter what it was.
However, she did not expect Phineas to hit her so badly just a few days after their wedding.
When he was assaulting her, it was obvious that he did not take her as his wife but treated her like an enemy.
