Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 197

After hearing Derrick's words, Arvin felt a bit upset. Then, he nodded and said, "Well, Derrick, Nita is not as innocent as you think. Remember that I warned you!" Arvin did have evidence for his claims. Compared with Derrick, Arvin was quite confident that he had a better judge of character.

What's more, a few years ago, Derrick was frauded by some businessmen, so he went bankrupt.. Later, his friends helped him stage a comeback by lending him a lot of money.

Now, the two close friends are drifting away from each other.

To make things worse, they might turn against each other because of Angela and Nita.

In the Gu family's house

Haley almost suffered a mental breakdown. Then she told Lily. "Mom, how can you take Baron to the Ren Family to propose without my permission?" Haley felt a little angry with her mother.

Lily was calmly mixing a Chinese herbal medicine and told her daughter, "According to what I've heard, Cheryl is a good girl. Also, she lost her baby because of Baron, and it is likely that she would never be able to get pregnant anymore. Don't you think Baron should take full responsibility? "

Mom, we can get rid of this trouble by giving them more money. There's no need to sacrifice Baron's happy life, " Haley retorted.

Lily glanced at her and said, "Not everything can be solved with money. Look at the situation. If the money does work, then why is Cheryl's family still insisting on suing Baron?" Lily said angrily.

Haley sneered, "Because they want to ask for more! I've already promised to give them a million dollars, but they turned it down. I am sure they want more than that." Haley's words were full of ironies.

"Not everyone is as snobbish as you!" Lily didn't hesitate to snap back at her daughter, and then she disappointedly shook her head.

"Mom, Cheryl is from the slums. How could she be a good girl? Is it because of your old age that you're not seeing things clearly? Don't you know that criminals come from the slums?" Haley claimed arrogantly.

On hearing her daughter's nonsense, Lily slammed the herbal medicine on the table and coldly looked at her, "Haley, you don't have the right to look down upon anyone. I remember I have told you this so many times. Why do you keep on doing this? I have provided you with a good, comfortable life. Maybe that is why you've become so arrogant. It is wrong to look down on those who are not as rich as you." Lily wanted to teach her daughter a lesson.

"Instead of doing that, you should think more about your son's behavior. He got Cheryl pregnant but is unwilling to take responsibility! How shameful that is! After this incident, I am afraid no girls from the upperclass would like to marry Baron. Don't you think so?" Lily told her daughter.

Haley felt embarrassed at Lily's words. "I know it was Baron's fault. But Mom, do you want Parker and I to have no grandkids?" Haley asked.

'Even you said there is only a small chance for Cheryl to get pregnant. That is to say, she would never get pregnant at all.'

Lily sighed and said, "After Baron and Cheryl get married, ask her to live with me. I will try to nurse her back to health. That way, everyone wins!" Lily replied.

"Mom, why? We can resolve this with money! Why do you insist on the hard way?" Haley's words clearly angered her mother.

Lily slapped the table in anger. "It isn't I but your son who made things hard! Your son should be blamed. Right now, you should be teaching your son how to be a true man instead of telling me all this. Arvin has set a good example for him, " Lily said, full of rage.

"Arvin! Arvin! Mom, you always compare Baron with Arvin!" Haley thought, 'Arvin is a cold man. Baron can learn nothing from him.'

"I am biased with Arvin. That's true. So what? In many aspects, Arvin is better than Baron. You must face the truth. Go home and teach Baron how to be a responsible man. Then, he can win my favour like Arvin did." In the end, Lily was so angry that she slammed the table several times.

Sensing her mother about to get more mad, Haley had to shut up and leave the Gu Family's house resentfully.
