Chapter 252
At the emergency room of Savrow Hospital, Rosalind had already received a blood
transfusion, but she was still in critical condition.
When she was brought in, her entire face was so pale that it was almost transparent. The
cuts on her wrists were hideous and deep.
Patrick, Jean, Gregory, and Bethany were waiting in the corridor.
Jean was heartbroken and bawled while calling out her daughter’s name.
“That’s enough! How could you cry like this at your age? You’re embarrassing us!” Patrick
admonished her with a gloomy face.
“Are you kidding me? Our daughter’s life is hanging by a thread, but as her father, you
only think about how I’m embarrassing you. Do you even have a heart?!”
Jean grabbed and pulled her husband’s collar while crying hysterically. “My son is already
in prison. Rose is the only child I have now! If anything happens to her, I won’t be able to
live anymore!”
Patrick’s face was glum. His daughter attempted suicide because of a man, and his wife
was making a fuss.
Patrick already had an inferior complex with Gregory. But this time, he felt even more
embarrassed in front of his brother-in-law because he could not figure out how to deal with
his wife and daughter. In a fit of rage, Patrick shoved Jean, who stumbled to the floor.

“Are you done making a scene?! This is a hospital. Do you think this is a farmer’s market?
Look in the mirror! Do you still look like the wife of a chairman?!”
“You… You pushed me…” Jean collapsed on the floor. She was so stunned that she forgot
to cry.
“Aunt Jean, Uncle Patrick, please stop arguing! What’s most important is that Rose can
survive the critical period.” Bethany hurriedly stepped forward to help Jean. However, she
was secretly smiling.
If Shannon had not been assisting with the investigation at the prosecutor’s office and
Gregory had not dragged her over to console Jean, Bethany would not have cared about
Rosalind’s well-being.
Since Bethany was already at the hospital, she would have to complete the act. Thus, she
could not laugh, no matter how secretly happy she was.
“Gregory, my daughter has become like this because of your son. You must give us an
explanation!”
Patrick had nowhere to vent his anger, so he could only blame Gregory. “My daughter and
your
son have been in a relationship for so many years. She gave Justin the most precious
years of her youth! Now that their marital news is spreading, everyone in Savrow knows
that my daughter is Justin’s fiancée. At first, their wedding was set to be after Old Master
Nigel’s birthday. Your son and that woman delayed finalizing their divorce, but we put up
with it for Old Master Nigel’s sake. Now that his birthday has passed and they have
finalized their divorce, how could your son suddenly back out at this time? What kind of
girl from a good family can bear this kind of betrayal? Your son is just forcing my daughter
off a cliff!”

Gregory was frustrated. His face was glum, and he did not know what to say.
“We… Although we’re not as rich and influential as the Thompsons, we’re decent people
who deserve respect. Justin is bullying Rose by treating her so callously!”
Jean stood up with Bethany’s support and said angrily, “Chairman Salvador, our family will
not let this slide! If Justin breaks up with my daughter, we will definitely leak it to the
press. We can all go to hell together!”
She knew that Rosalind attempted suicide to force Justin’s hand in marriage.
Rosalind and Justin were childhood sweethearts. As long as that man still had a hint of
nostalgia for Rosalind, he would not sit idly by and watch her die.
Even if they could not get married in the end, Jean would strive to get the maximum
benefit from the Salvadors. That way, she could also save her family from bankruptcy. No
matter how she looked at it, this was a profitable deal!
Gregory sighed repeatedly. He looked troubled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith Shannon’s arrest making headlines, if news spread about the CEO of Salvador
Corporation two-timing his fiancée, forcing her to commit suicide, Salvador Corporation’s
reputation would go down the drain, and their stocks would plummet.
At this point, Gregory no longer cared about Justin’s willingness. He simply made a
decision.” Don’t worry, when Rose wakes up, you can tell her that I will make sure Justin
marries her as planned.”
After hearing this, the Golds’ expressions relaxed a little.
However, Jean still had lingering fears when she thought about the past. Justin was gaining
more power in Salvador Corporation. He was no longer the weak, illegitimate son who
would listen to Gregory’s orders. Thus, Justin might not even care about the promise that
Gregory made.
At this time, a series of footsteps came from the end of the corridor.
Justin’s handsome face was pale, as if it were covered in frost. He walked toward them
with Ian in tow.
“How is Rose?”
Before Gregory could answer, Jean rushed over with fiery eyes and grabbed Justin’s shirt.
“Justin! What did my daughter ever do to you?! Look at what you’ve done to her! Do you
want Rosalind to die so that you can get back together with your ex-wife?!”
“Mrs. Gold! Calm down!” Ian hurriedly pulled Shannon away from Justin.
This caused a big stir. Even though there were bodyguards standing guard over the area,
some onlookers still poked their heads to watch the fun.
