Fierce Daddy: His Million-Dollar Sweetheart
Chapter 397: Saved Your Mother’s Life
CHAPTER 397: CHAPTER 397: SAVED YOUR MOTHER’S LIFE
Aunt Lee saw that Leon Keane had been successfully provoked by him and had a conflict with Ivana Monroe, and she felt a wave of happiness in her heart. It seemed that President Kane’s relationship with Ivana was not all that strong.
Aunt Lee looked at Ivana with disdain, clicking her tongue, this woman’s temper is really big. What is she relying on? Just being young and beautiful, she thinks she has enough capital.
What a pity! A man might tolerate you for a day or two, but he absolutely won’t tolerate you long-term, especially a super wealthy family like the Kane family. If you don’t know how to be humble, please your mother-in-law and husband, you’ll destined to be kicked out.
Ivana is a living example.
However, what Leon said next made Aunt Lee’s heart leap into her throat.
Leon frowned, gave Ivana a deep look, and said to the bodyguard, "Go check the hospital room video."
Bodyguard: "Yes."
Aunt Lee froze, completely not expecting that there would be a camera installed in the hospital room.
Aunt Lee panicked, thinking if the video is retrieved, she’ll be exposed!
"Don’t..." Aunt Lee tried to stop the bodyguard and said to Leon, "President Kane, it’s all in the past, let’s not bring it up again. I also don’t mean to blame Ivana..."
Aunt Golding let out a heavy sigh of relief, she had been scared to death just now, thinking that President Kane would believe Aunt Lee and blame the young mistress.
President Kane is a very discerning person.
Saying now there’s no intention to blame the young mistress?
What Aunt Lee said just now was aiming to completely ruin the young mistress.
What a despicable sycophant, an opportunist.
Aunt Golding sneered in her heart.
"Retrieve it." Leon ordered coldly, his firm attitude allowing no argument.
The bodyguard pushed aside Aunt Lee, who was blocking the way.
Aunt Lee staggered, nearly falling.
She was in a panic, and seeing the doctor pushing Mrs. Kane out, she dashed over, "Madam, I’ll accompany you for the CT scan."
Mrs. Kane suddenly saw Aunt Lee, whose face was covered in blood, and was startled. After all, she was elderly, and Aunt Lee had come so suddenly, she screamed, "Ah!"
Leon ordered the bodyguard standing by the door, "Bring her in."
Upon hearing this, the bodyguard immediately went to grab Aunt Lee.
Aunt Lee grabbed the stretcher tightly with both hands, yelling in panic, "Mrs. Kane, save me! I’m here with you!"
Mrs. Kane widened her eyes, her head aching, and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking?"
She knew her son was inclined to side with Ivana, and Aunt Lee’s words could easily make Leon think that she deliberately brought Aunt Lee and Auntie Chamberlain to cause trouble in Ivana’s hospital room.
Aunt Lee’s eyes turned red, "I’m not talking nonsense, you said you missed Ian, so Auntie Chamberlain and I came with you. Auntie Chamberlain can testify!"
Mrs. Kane was so angry at Aunt Lee, she did say she missed Ian, but she didn’t expect to come to Ivana’s hospital room! It was the two aunties adding fuel to the fire in front of her, saying Ian only saw Ivana as his mommy now and might forget about her as his grandmother sooner or later.
So, she came here in anger!
How could Aunt Lee push all the blame onto her?
Making it look like all the decisions were made by her alone, while Aunt Lee and Auntie Chamberlain merely followed her lead and came.
Mrs. Kane was about to burst from anger, she was so dizzy, she decided that this time, she had to fire Aunt Lee too. Aunt Lee usually behaved well, but in critical moments, she would still bite the hand that feeds her.
"Shut up." Mrs. Kane said in a low voice warning, then weakly cried out, "Oh no... my head hurts so much! Leon, don’t blame anyone anymore, it was my fault for coming here, I shouldn’t have come! It’s all my fault for missing my grandson too much."
Mrs. Kane was also feeling guilty, fearing that if Leon retrieved the video, it would show her not keeping her promise to accept Ivana. If the video of her "bullying" Ivana came to light, she would be the one who broke her word, and it would be her fault.
Mrs. Kane had no choice but to pretend to have a headache to appear weak.
The doctor, seeing the situation, also said to Leon, "Mr. Kane, your mother’s condition seems not very optimistic, we should take her for a brain CT scan first."
The doctor looked at Aunt Lee, who held the stretcher tightly, her face covered in blood making her look terrifying, yet she insisted on blaming Ivana in the room, wasn’t she out of her mind?
The doctor didn’t know what had happened in the hospital room, but from Aunt Lee’s behavior, it seemed she might be the culprit behind Mrs. Kane’s distress.
In such a case, she must have the CT scan first, save her, then talk about it later.
Aunt Lee fully misunderstood this truth, all she knew was to stir trouble.
Leon showed a fleeting sign of tension, "Quickly push my mother to the CT room."
Leon took a few steps forward, his dark eyes coldly staring at Aunt Lee, and Aunt Lee felt a wave of fear, wanting to retreat but not daring to let go of the stretcher easily.
Leon firmly pressed the stretcher with both hands, giving the bodyguard a look. The bodyguard instantly comprehended, punching Aunt Lee’s arm. She screamed and let go of the stretcher as the bodyguard grabbed her shoulder and violently threw her back.
Aunt Lee fell to the ground, pain sent cold sweats all over her body, she felt like her arm... was broken...
"Doctor... save... save me..."
Aunt Lee called out to the doctor for help.
The doctor glanced at Leon, seeing Leon’s lack of response, they pretended not to hear Aunt Lee’s plea.
Everyone left, and Ivana’s hospital room returned to silence.
She lay exhausted on the bed, staring at the ceiling of the room, all white. Her mind was also completely blank, her luck had been truly bad recently.
Lying here, all sorts of trouble came her way too.
Even Mrs. Kane came seeking her out.
"Young mistress, here, drink some warm water to calm your nerves."
Aunt Golding saw Ivana staring into space, thinking she was scared, and brought over a cup of warm water.
Ivana snapped back, reached out to take the water from Aunt Golding, noticing Aunt Golding’s swollen cheek, and felt guilty, "Aunt Golding... your face... I’m really sorry."
Aunt Golding waved it off with a big smile, "It’s nothing, just a small injury, it’ll get better with a couple of days of ointment."
Aunt Golding tried to comfort Ivana, which only made Ivana feel even more guilty and upset. If her mother were alive, she’d be about Aunt Golding’s age, and now someone who could be her mother’s peer had to endure being slapped, Ivana couldn’t describe her current feelings. She felt utterly useless, especially lying in a hospital bed, unable to even protect Aunt Golding.
Mrs. Kane was taken for a brain CT scan.
The brain CT results came out.
The doctor, holding the scan, approached Leon.
Mrs. Kane lay on the stretcher, suddenly feeling very dizzy, her heartbeat turned irregular, and seeing the doctor in the white coat approach, she quickly asked, "Doctor, what’s wrong with me now? I feel particularly dizzy, my heart is racing too, am I in serious trouble?"
Mrs. Kane was very scared, afraid that something might happen to her.
People can be very fragile at moments like this, and as she spoke, tears were almost spilling out.
The doctor said, "Mrs. Kane, don’t be nervous, the situation is much better than I expected. By the way, whoever advised you to stay lying down, if it was that injured maid, President Kane, I suggest you let her go, because she saved your mother’s life."
