Chapter 432Stella's face changed. "Stall them, Zayla. Don't let them touch my mother. I'll go over right away."novelbin

"| have to go, Mr. Wood," she said after hanging up the phone. Daniel had already heard what was going on through the phonecall. He more or less knew about the situation in Stella's family. He knew she had a mother who was in a coma in the hospitaland needed long-term medication.

Although Stella's life was rather messy, she was never late for shoots. She was the best at taking criticism and the sharpestactor.

Daniel liked her a lot. So when he heard that, he said, "Go ahead. We've done a lot of filming today. We need to change thebackground for our next scene; we can continue the shoot next time."

Stella said goodbye and changed her costume. Then, without taking her makeup off, she rushed to Rotona Pinnacle Hospital.Several people in very different attires stood at the door of Rainee's ward. The leader of the group held a black leather bag underhis armpit. He was dressed relatively ordinarily, but he was rather tall and big. He had a chubby face and a scar at the corner ofhis left eye up to his scalp, where hair stopped growing. His appearance gave off a sense of cruelty and ruthlessness.

Three other people stood behind him, dressed in gang wear. They had tattoos all over their arm and piercings all over their face.No one dared to pass by the ward when they saw them.

Zayla was afraid they would do something. She stood in front of the hospital bed, wary that they would come in and touchRainee's equipment just like before.

Most of the medical staff also stood far away. The nurse in charge tried negotiating with the men as their presence affected thehospital and its patients.

The leader smiled and said, "We don't want to do this either, Ms. Nurse, but they owe us money. It's been several years sincethey last paid us back. My men here have families to care for, too, you know. There are laws to follow. We won't do anything toharm her; we just want an explanation.”

The man's smile, paired with his scar, made him seem even more intimidating than before.“Even so, you can't take off her ventilator. It'll kill her!" The nurse anxiously said.

“What can | do? They have the money to get medical treatment, yet they don't have the money to pay us back. | have to dosomething to warn them, right?" the man said, glancing at the equipment. "Isn't her heartbeat fairly normal?"

"Go find the person who borrowed money from you if you want it back. Don't come to the hospital and cause trouble. We'll haveno choice but to call the police if you affect the patients."

The man's eyes darkened, sneering, "Call them and tell them why I'm here. I'm sure they'd agree that you should repay themoney you owe."The nurse realized that there was no use negotiating, so she took out her phone to dial 911.

The man did not speak. Instead, he gave the tattooed man next to him a look, and the man immediately understood. He steppedforward to grab the nurse, pulled the phone out of her hand, and smashed it against the wall.

The phone instantly fell apart, and the nurse crouched, covering her head in fright.“Let's see who dares to call the police!"

"| dare!" A cold female voice came from the crowd. Everyone stepped aside. and Stella walked out with a tense look. Then, shewalked up to the head of the pack.
