Chapter 3
Liam stood not far away, he put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and looks at the ensuing drama with no concern. He then turns around and leaves.
Jane wants to chase after him, but she is stopped by a couple of security guards.
"President Chu is busy and he asks that no one disturb him."
"I'm his fiancee!"
"Miss, the President's fiancee is recuperating in the VIP ward," the security guard gave a sarcastic tone and seeming impressed with himself.
Jane struggles desperately, but she can't resist the strength of the guards. She is dragged to the hall and pushed out.
"Look in the mirror, President Chu wouldn’t want a madman like you?"
Jane Jiang sits on the cold floor, sobbing silently, pinching the palm of her hand with her fingers.
She hated her futility.
She’s already lost everything and now she is about to lose her mother.
Her whole heart is going to be broken. Despair came like a wave suffocating her.
“No, I must not give up!”
Jane clenches her teeth and forces herself to stand up and walk back to the sick ward.
…
Jane stands in front of the room. She pushes the door open and rays of sunshine flood on the woman wearing a white patient gown. The young woman inside hears Jane’s movements and turns her head.
She walks into the ward with her voice hoarse and incoherent. "Quinnie, my mother had an accident and Liam won't see me. Please tell him to help my mother.
Her disheveled hair and face were in sharp contrast to the elegant and slender woman in front of her.
Quinn Liu stares at her for a few seconds, then smiles.
"It's none of my business. Besides, isn't it retribution?"
Jane pleaded in a low voice, "Quinnie, ever since you came to the Jiang family, my mother has never treated you badly. And I never wanted to hit you."
"Yes, I ran out on purpose and hit the car, so what? Liam won't believe you anyway but it's enough for him to believe me."
Quinn turns her head and smiles with malice.
Jane's heart trembles and her mind looks back to the past. The day Quinn deliberately set up her trick. That Quinn hid in the sides while she was driving. And that Quinn suddenly rushed out to get hit on purpose, but nobody believes her.
Quinn sneers. "Jane, do you know what I hate most about you? You and I share the same blood of the Jiang family, but I can’t be surnamed, Jiang. I only follow my mother's surname Liu, and I can't even enter the genealogy. Why?"
"How about you get down on your knees and beg!"
Quinn sits with her legs overlapping gracefully.
Jane feels a sense of humiliation rush to her chest.
"As long as I kneel, you will save my mother?"
“Hmhmm!” Quinn answers Jane with her eyebrows, smiling with a winner's attitude.
"I will kneel."
Without hesitation, Jane kneels in front of the woman who robbed her fiance. She thought about her worthless dignity compared to her mother’s life.
Quinn covers her mouth and laughs sarcastically.
"Jane, if your mother knew how cruel you are she would have had another heart attack, ha ha ha ha..."
"I'm the one who hit you, not my mother." Jane put up with the humiliation again, "Please save my mother."
"Why should I save her? Let her die. She’s old. Old people need to die too…"
She looked up incredulously, "But you just said-"
"I didn't say anything." Quinn’s mouth curves with her vicious eyes, "If you want to kneel, then kneel. I never said anything about helping you."
