I rugged to look np . ford started at the company the same time at kyles through campus recruitment , but he hadn't had Rylee's luck . Even now , he was just a low level admin clerk . Our eyes met , and Camden lowered his gaze , as if he hadn't been the one who'd just spoken , quietly retreating back into the crowd . Instead , it was Ryder who shot me a cold look , her eyes full of regret . Camden's interference instantly cooled Garrett down . Seeing the clusters of people watching the drama unfold , his face darkened as he roared : " Don't you all have work to do " Anyone who doesn't want their job can get the hell out ! I lay on the ground in despair , curled up in a ball just as I was losing consciousness , my phone , which had fallen to the ground , suddenly rang Seeing the caller ID , I tremblingly slid to answer . On the other end , my daughter's attending physician sounded urgent : " Mrs. Ashford , we're conducting an emergency resuscitation for your daughter now . Please have the family come immediately ! " "Hurry ! " Panic shot through me like lightning . I swayed as I struggled to my feet , rushing toward the exit like a madwoman . After just two steps , I crashed heavily to the ground , covered in mud and filth . Garrett's face was ashen as he hauled me up from the ground and shoved me into the car . His voice was full of threats : Juniper , if you're lying to me , I swear I will make you pay ! " As he spoke , he floored the gas pedal , racing toward the hospital . Rylee tried to stop him in her panic , but seeing Garrett's dark expression , she stammered nervously , not daring to speak up . When we reached the hospital , I took the critical condition notice from the nurse . My fingers trembled so badly I couldn't hold the pen steady- ! couldn't even write my own name . Garrett's eyes were ice cold as he snatched the pen from my hand and quickly signed his name . He barked at the nurse : " What happened ? How did my daughter end up like this in just a few days ! " The nurse glanced at him . Perhaps from professional experience , she was used to frantic family members like this . She said impatiently : " Infant conditions are naturally prone to complications ! " 3.0 % in Court for EVERYTHING Chapter 6 " If you family members hadn't been too cheap to pay for the specialized medication and forced us to use regular drugs with worse side effects , how would the child have gotten more serious ! " " Instead of wasting time yelling at doctors , hurry up and pay the overdue medical bills so the doctors can perform surgery " " Garrett's face went pale , and he stumbled back a few steps . Suddenly , he grabbed my arm , his tense body trembling slightly as he demanded through gritted teeth : " Juniper , you did this on purpose , didn't you ? " To use our daughter to pressure me , you actually dared to stop her medication ? " Hearing his words , Rylee's face went slightly pale . She forced herself to comfort the furious Garrett . " Garrett , don't get so angry . Little one is still waiting for you . " Then she casually glanced at me , deliberately speaking vaguely : " In this world , there are fathers who love their children , and there are mothers who deliberately torture their children to threaten others . " " Juniper , no matter how dissatisfied you are with me , you can't just stop the child's medication . " " Even I , as an outsider , feel heartbroken for her - how much more so must Mr. Garrett . " The annoying chatter made my temples throb with pain . I leaned against the wall , my gaze fixed straight ahead on the tightly closed operating room doors . Only when Garrett jerked me roughly did I snap back to reality . Seeing the undisguised worry in his eyes , I suddenly laughed . Tears mixed with laughter as they fell . Without warning , I raised my hand and slapped him hard across the face . " SMACK ! " The crisp sound of the slap echoed through the corridor . I stared at Garrett's incredulous expression and said coldly : " I stopped our daughter's medication ? " " Garrett , it wasYOU who froze all my cards , cancelled all my account access . " " It was you and Rylee who used financial control to force me into submission - did you forget ? " " When our daughter was lying in the ICU waiting for medicine , what were you doing ? " " Ha , let me remind you - you were at an auction buying your beloved little CFO a big pink diamond worth a fucking hundred million ! " Discover our latest featured short drama reel.
