Chapter 258
“I think my father really doesn’t like you because of that man. If he knew how good and hardworking you are, he would certainly stop thinking about you and accept you.”
Carson’s facial expression looked fascinated when he was listening to me. Looking at my naive gaze, he really thought he was smart and reached out to take my hand. “Honey, I will return the money I borrowed and the house money to your mother.”
“Husband, you are still in a tight spot right now, so let’s talk about this when you have money in the future.”
“I am not really in a tight spot as there is still money in the company account.” Carson finally told the truth.
“Serious? Why don’t you use it as Eliza’s dowry?”
“There’s a reason I pretended I didn’t have any money. Eliza is not really a capable person, and she has always tried to reap without sowing. I was disturbed how she dared ask me for so much money on the wedding as an apology. Although she is my younger sister, I cannot spoil her like this. About fifty thousand is enough since we don’t owe her anyway. A few million is too much.
“I understand, husband. I will go along with whatever you decide about Eliza.” I pretended to be an understanding wife. “By the way, I need to discuss something with you, husband.”
“What is it?”
“My father will be released from the hospital tomorrow, so I want to go back and take care of him.”
“Did the father-in-law agree to you coming back?” Carson looked shocked and surprised.
“I asked my mother to try to convince him too. I’m just waiting for his response now, but I still want to at least let him know about it.”
“You should do this” Carson looked so happy it was like he’d just struck gold.
Carson thought that since I could go home, it would almost be his turn now. As long as he could get into my house, he would be closer to my father’s company.
Therefore, I allowed him to bounce around in happiness before letting him experience what it felt like to let all of his efforts go to
waste.
I went to the hospital early in the morning the next day. When I walked into my father’s ward, he looked surprised to see me. “Why did you come so early in the morning?”
“His daughter came to help him get discharged.” My mother laughed.
“The doctors in charge probably haven’t even come to the hospital yet. In addition, I will arrange for someone to resolve my discharge. You should have slept a little longer.”
“I don’t have to work because today is Saturday, so I have all the time to nap whenever I want.” At that moment, Mrs. Fant came in with a smile too. “Lily, last night, I already fixed your room back up the way it used to be. You should check and let me know if you want me to change anything so I can go get it for you.”
“Thank you, Mrs. Fant! My room is working great!” I smiled at the aide.
“Lily is coming back?” Dad, who still didn’t know about my return, asked with a surprised expression.
