Better Life Without You. novel Chapter 157

After returning to the villa, she ran back to her room and sat by the window.

When William Walton came in, she was in a daze and did not hear anything.

He came up behind her and bent to embrace her.

Startled, she dodged to the side.

William Walton released her and laughed: "What are you thinking, you look like you have lost your soul."

"Nothing," she said with an embarrassed grin.

"Mike said, you just went to the hospital, is there something wrong?"

Her heart tightened for a moment before she shook her head. "No, I went to visit a friend."

"Colleagues?"

She did not want to lie to him, "Avery Harris."

"Is he in the hospital?"

"Yes."

"Is he sick?"

She shook her head gently. "A car accident."

"Look at your expression, he's very serious."

"I don't know either, I didn't go in to see him," she looked at him. "Judy heard that Avery Harris was in a car accident and that his leg was probably crippled, that's why I went there."

"Then why didn't you go in and ask?"

She lowered her eyes and bit the corner of her lips. Her eyes were moist.

Seeing her like this, William Walton felt a burst of unhappiness in his heart. This woman, could she be still in love with that man?

"Laura, what are you thinking about?"

He thought that this pair of eyes would be able to see through people's hearts, but she was an exception.

She looked at him, full of guilt. There were some things she didn't know who else she could tell.

William Walton appearing in front of her made her feel that the timing was perfect.

She reached out and grabbed William Walton's sleeve, looking like a stray cat that had found its master.

Her voice trembled a little: "I was the one who harmed Avery Harris. That day, he went to find me and interrogated me about why I didn't tell him that I was an illegitimate daughter of the Anderson family. I felt very angry because he had secretly investigated me, so ... I said a lot of nasty things. He got into a car accident after that.

Avery Harris has always been a very sensitive person. If I hadn't embarrassed him so much that day, he probably wouldn't have gotten into trouble. Helen Anderson is right. I am just an unlucky person. Whoever dares to provoke me will not have a good ending. "

As she spoke, she lowered her eyes, trying her best to restrain herself from overflowing with grief.

William Walton frowned. Helen Anderson was such a malicious woman, yet she actually dared to spout such malicious words.

Anger was mixed in his eyes as he pulled her into his embrace.

"What does Avery Harris's accident have to do with you? It's his own fate, and you've also told me unpleasant words, am I not still alive and well?"

She let out a breath. "But he ..."

"But ... No but, keep your sadness away. Don't take any fault with yourself, when others cross your bottom line, you say some nasty words. That's normal. It is impossible for you to keep calm after being hurt by others. You can't smile to the people who did bad things to you. There is no such principle in this world. "

She was still unable to calm down.

"No need. I don't think we'll have anything to do with each other anymore. So, it's better not to apologize."

"Laura, I know that my actions were a bit excessive before, but this time, I hope that you can go to the hospital to take a look at him. Yesterday, the bed 2 patient that I told you about was my son. He might be crippled, but he has already given up on himself. I hope that you can help to persuade him."

Monica Brown said, with a face that seemed to have aged several years, the heartache of a loving mother.

After a moment of silence, she said, "I will go, but in the future, don't come looking for me."

After she finished speaking, she stood up and prepared to leave the pavilion.

Monica Brown sighed: "If you had told me earlier, that you were from Anderson family, I wouldn't have made things so difficult for the two of you. After all, our families are the same, and it's a rule set by the elders of the Harris family.

"I am not the perfect match between the Harris family and Principal Brown, Your Harris family's style of doing things is truly not compatible with me."

She got up and left.

Monica Brown frowned, she looked at the proud young lady.

Even at this moment, she still couldn't like her. Most of the girls that were overly proud lacked love.

Elsie Clark was still there when Laura arrived at the hospital.

However, she wasn't in the ward, but was waiting at the door.

Seeing that Laura had arrived, she became cautious, and coldly stepped forward to block her: "Laura, what qualifications do you have to come here and harm Avery Harris to such a degree, on what basis are you going to come and see him? Scram, scram as far away as you can. The one who invited me here is Avery Harris's mother. If you are dissatisfied, go find her and argue. Don't talk to me, because I don't want to talk even half a word to you."

She circled around Elsie Clark, and just as she was about to push the door open and enter, Elsie Clark said with gritted teeth: "His legs are already crippled, and the position of Harris family's mistress, do you still want to fight with me?"

"So, you came looking for him not because of him, but because of your status as the mistress of the Harris family?"

"Otherwise, why would I be entangled with a cripple who looks down on me? Do you think I'm crazy? " Elsie Clark looked at him coldly: "Laura, you don't have to act noble. Back then, when you were with Avery Harris, do you dare to say that it wasn't for the Harris family's status, and his family's money?"

Laura glanced at her, "I'm not."
