A wave of irritation surged through Jared's chest . He always said he hated women crying and making scenes . So why did Lily's complete lack of emotion bother him even more ? " Jared ." Sarah's voice pulled him back . " The light's green . What were you thinking about ? " He smiled and shook his head . " Nothing . " Women . Always such a headache . It was time to talk to Lily properly . If she insisted on making trouble , then fine - he'd divorce her once and for all . With that thought , he pushed her from his mind and drove straight to Cloud Corp. Back at the hospital , in the treatment room . Lily sat silently while the doctor cleaned and dressed her wounds . The gash on her leg was deep and needed disinfecting , but she didn't even flinch . She'd thought she'd felt it all already - watching the footage of Jared cheating , hearing him speak those cruel words . She thought her heart had already died . But now she realized , Jared could always hurt her worse . Compared to this kind of pain , the scrape on her leg was nothing . The doctor handed her some medicine and she thanked him , then quietly left . Wayne throwing her to the wolves hadn't shocked her . She knew him . That was exactly the kind of thing he'd do . But Jared ... Jared still managed to disappoint her in ways she hadn't thought possible . She returned to Yulia's place , took a shower , and was barely out when her phone rang again . It was Azure . 1/3 10:56 Thu , Sep 11 " Lily , you made it out , right ? " Azure asked , her tone strangely casual . Lily made a quiet noise in response . " Mm ." " Good . Your father knew you'd find a way , that's why he left you there . I know you're mad at him , but you can't just abandon Henry . Henry's always loved you most - you can't be heartless ... " So that was it . Not concern for her - just worry she might give up on saving Henry . And she wouldn't . No matter how cruel her parents were , Henry was different . " From now on , I'll only have a sister's conscience . " She hung up and immediately called Mr. Rodrick . He'd already seen the videos online of her being mobbed . Someone in the crowd had posted them - now they were trending . " Ms. Lily , you'll need to be more careful from now on . But honestly , this might help us . A lot of reasonable people online are siding with you - they're saying no one deserves to be assaulted , no matter what . " " Thank you , Mr. Rodrick . But I haven't done much yet . Is there anything I can help with ? " Lily curled up on the couch , hugging her knees . She looked small , vulnerable ... but her voice was calm , almost numb . " There is one thing I need you to investigate ," Rodrick replied . He had already negotiated with the police - they agreed to give him a little more time to collect evidence . In many staged - suicide cases , the deceased either had a terminal illness or some hidden hardship , and chose to die for insurance , hoping to leave money behind for their children . " You'll need someone to check the hospitals to see if she had any medical history , " he said . " Also look into her life in the past few months . " He emphasized the , words " have someone ." Lily had shown her face to the public . If the victim's family was involved , they would recognize her instantly . Checking all hospitals in Riverville in such a short time was no small task - and not something Ginger family could pull off . But the Bolt family could . 2/3 10:56 Thu , Sep 11 Still , she no longer cared how much he looked down on her . If she could use the Bolt family's influence to save Henry , she would . She went to the Bolt family's estate and found James . He had just gotten back from a trip with Jared's mother . When Lily entered , their luggage was still in the living room . " Lily , just in time , " James said , putting down his newspaper and removing his glasses . " How's your brother's case going ? " She gave a concise update , then brought up Mr. Rodrick's request . " Dad , do you have a way to get hospital records quickly ? " James didn't hesitate . " That's no problem for our family . I'll make a few calls and have the files sent to your email . " Relief flooded her face for the first time in days . The storm cloud hanging over her heart lightened just a little . " Did you come back for something else ? " James asked . " No , just the hospital records ," she replied . James frowned slightly . " You could've just told Jared to help with that ." Lily didn't respond . He seemed to understand and smiled , changing the subject . " Since you're here , at least stay for lunch . Your grandmother's napping , but she was just asking about you ." " No , thank you , Dad . I've got other things to take care of ." Send Gifts 2.4K 3/3 Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
