Chapter 439
Albert did not even dare to switch on his phone. As long as
Sophia's incident did not die down, various news outlets would rampantly call his phone whenever itwas on.
Even their housemaid said she saw a few suspicious people near where they were staying when shetook out the trash early in the morning.
Hylda held a bowl of yogurt as she stood at the study's door. Then, she gently knocked on the doortwice. After hearing Albert's voice from the room, she opened the door and went inside.
"Have something to eat, Albert," she said as she placed the yogurt on the table.
She said lowly, "You barely slept last night and are still busy the entire day today. Eat something beforeyou continue; don't let yourself fall sick."
Albert looked annoyed, "There are still so many deposits that haven't been covered; how could I be inthe mood to eat right now?
"Albert, the matter about money isn't urgent; it's only temporary. What's important at the moment, isn'tthis," Hylda paused. She softly said, 'I just received news from the hospital. Rainee seems to beconscious."
Albert paled, "What did you say?"
To make Albert decide soon, Hylda exaggerated Rainee's situation.
Albert had a fearful and doubtful expression, "Are you sure? The doctor clearly said the chances areextremely low."
‘Just because the chances are extremely low, it doesn't mean she won't regain consciousness, 'thought Hylda.
She lowered her voice, "Albert, once she regains consciousness, some things can no longer be hidden.If Stella learns about what happened back then, it'll be more than just losing some money."
Albert was so shocked and petrified, "Then, what should we do?"
Hylda looked at his hopeless state.
‘How did I fall for a good-for-nothing like him back then?' she thought repeatedly.
Hylda suppressed the disgust she felt within and said in alow voice, "Albert, Stella longer has anyconsideration for your feelings; she won't care about the father-and-daughter relationship between youtwo. After Rainee discovered those loopholes, we covered them so Stella might not have crucialevidence and couldn't threaten you. However, conversely, we can counter-pressure her with Rainee'shospital bills that we have been shouldering all this time. Since she doesn't care about her father anddaughter relationship with you anymore, we no longer have to show her any mercy."
She paused momentarily before continuing slowly, "It's time we stop paying for her hospital bills."
After Hylda and Albert married, he handed the matter of paying Rainee's hospital bills to her. Shewished the woman would never regain consciousness, so she would constantly put off paying for thehospital bills and only pay when she could no longer delay it. Right now, she was really glad about thisdecision of hers.
‘Based on my calculation, Rainee's account should be out of money now. If Stella uses the Kanefamily's money to pay Rainee's hospital bills, someone will naturally do something without the need forus to make a move" she thought.
Albert was still a little indecisive. He pursed his lips for a long time before finally saying, "The doctor'salready said she doesn't have long to live; is there a need for us to take things to this extent?" Hylda'svoice turned icy.
"If she regains consciousness, we're both done for! Albert, think of the things she did to you! Think ofStella! Can you live with what she did?"
Albert's expression changed. He finally decided, "Alright. Go and do it, then."
Hylda walked out of the study and immediately made a call. In Alodale, Coco stared at the four whitewalls around her. She frowned, "Didn't you say we're going to play? Why are we at the hospital again?"
The hospital staff was helping her change into a gown while
Keegan stood at the side.
"You can go out and play after this surgery," he said coolly. Coco pouted.
"That was what you said the last time I got surgery. In the end, I was still in the hospital when I wokeup."novelbin
Keegan said, "This is the last surgery."
