Although the bodyguards didn't understand the situation, they didn't dare to go against Mabel Sean's wishes and quickly chased after me.
I wandered aimlessly along the street, feeling completely desperate. Where should I go? Home? That definitely wasn't an option. Would I end up living on the streets?
"Dad, I've let you down," I thought of the man in my dream.
Just then, a Bentley drove up swiftly, blocking my way!
Four or five bodyguards jumped out of the car.
"Don't go!" The bodyguards blocked my path.
"Miss Sean wants you to go back with us," they said expressionlessly.
I thought Mabel wouldn't let me off the hook, so I said with a bitter smile, "I'll take responsibility for what I've done. I'll go back with you."
So, I got into the car with them.
There was silence throughout the ride.
Soon, a burly bodyguard gripped my arm and brought me before Mabel.
"Miss Sean, I've caught him for you!" The bodyguard pushed me in front of Mabel.
Mabel frowned slightly.
She slowly stood up and walked to the bodyguard.
"Who told you to treat him like this?" Mabel asked coldly.
The bodyguard was taken aback, stammering, "I...I..."
"Apologize to Mr. Raymond," Mabel said coldly.
"Miss Sean, I..."
"I told you to apologize!" Mabel interrupted the bodyguard's words with a sharp rebuke!
The bodyguard's face turned red.
Apologizing to someone like me clearly went against his will.
But no one dared to disobey Mabel's orders, so he reluctantly bowed down.
"So...sorry, Mr. Raymond," the bodyguard bent down, not even daring to raise his head.
I quickly replied, "Miss Sean, it's fine. It's not his fault. Please, let him stand up..."
Mabel finally nodded and coldly said, "You all can leave now."
Everyone left the room one after another.
Mabel opened a bottle of red wine, poured a glass for me, and then smiled, "I never expected that you'd be a skillful doctor."
I was surprised and asked happily, "Miss Sean, does that mean... your illness is cured?"
"Or what?" Now it was Mabel's turn to be surprised.
"That's great, that's great!" My heart was reignited in an instant!
It seemed that everything was real!
"But I'm curious, with your medical skills, how did you end up like this?" Mabel asked with interest.
I sighed softly upon hearing her words.
"Miss Sean, I don't know how to explain it to you..." I said with a bitter smile.
I couldn't say that I had a dream and suddenly acquired medical skills, right? People would think I'm a fool if I said that.
However, Mabel thought I was just being modest and low-key, which instead increased her liking for me.
"Skillful but unprincipled?" Mabel joked.
I gave an awkward laugh but didn't speak.
"Tell me, how do you want me to repay you? Money? Or something else?" Mabel asked playfully, as if hinting at something.
But I quickly waved my hands, "Miss Sean, I don't need anything. You saved me; I should be the one repaying you."
"Really? You don't want anything?" Mabel smiled.
"No matter what it is, I can agree to it, you know," Mabel's eyes were filled with anticipation.
I still shook my head, "I really don't need anything. Thank you for your kindness."
Hearing my answer, a glimmer of surprise flashed in Mabel's eyes.
Just then, my phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the caller ID, my face didn't look too good.
It was a phone call from Lyla Lucas.
I answered the phone and walked aside.
Once the call connected, Lyla's harsh voice came through, "Are you dead yet? If you're not dead, hurry up and get back here!"
Such coldness angered me.
I gritted my teeth and said, "After what you've done, why should I go back?"
Lyla on the other end burst into laughter.
"Mason Raymond, don't tell me you thought I wanted you to come back? I'm telling you to come back to sign our divorce papers!" Lyla sneered.
"You better not cling to me, or Harvey Brown will kill you!" Lyla snorted.
My fists clenched unconsciously.
I gritted my teeth and said, "Lyla, you're an animal! Don't worry, I won't bother you! But I'm telling you, you'll definitely regret this!"
"Heh, the thing I regret the most is marrying a loser like you," Lyla sneered.
Then, she hung up the phone.
My expression was complicated.
It was impossible not to have feelings after three years.
But more than that, it was humiliation and anger.
"What's wrong?" Mabel asked with a smile as she took a sip of red wine.
I shook my head and said, "Miss Sean, I... I need to go home. There's something I have to deal with..."
Mabel blinked and asked, "Divorce?"
I was surprised and asked, "How did you know?"
"I guessed," Mabel casually replied.
"I'll go with you," Mabel stood up and offered.
"No...no need," I waved my hands hastily.
Mabel persistently replied, "I'll go with you. Don't make a fuss."
With no other choice, I followed Mabel out of the house.
As soon as we stepped out, Mabel's secretary approached her.
He whispered into Mabel's ear, "Miss Sean, the Chuzzle Province governor and the commander of the Chuzzle Battle Zone have arrived and invited you to a dinner..."
Hearing this, Mabel couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
She rubbed her pale forehead and muttered, "What a bother... tell them to wait a bit. I'll be there later."
"Yes, Miss," the secretary nodded in response.
Afterward, Mabel drove up to me.
"Get in," Mabel beckoned with her hand.
I couldn't refuse and got into the car.
Soon, I arrived at the Lucas family's entrance.
"Miss Sean, I'm home. Thank you for bringing me here," I got out of the car and said politely.
To my surprise, Mabel also got out of the car.
She flicked her hair back and smiled generously, "I'll come in with you."
"Huh?" I was taken aback.
Mabel smiled, "I want to see what your family is like."
