Chapter 407: 407. Money can do whatever you want_1 Chapter 407: 407. Money can do whatever you want_1 Jas Campbell charged forward, blocking lody Baker’s path, his face contorted with rage as he glared at Elly Campbell.
By then, Elly had already let go of lody Baker’s hand and was wiping her own with a handkerchief passed by a servant, rubbing it several tis as if it had been tainted with “dirty things.”
“Don’t worry, it’s just a sprain, no bones are hurt, a little ointnt will do.”
Her tone sounded exceptionally gentle, and had one not seen her twist lody Baker’s hand, they might have truly believed she was just a doctor treating an injury.
Elly Campbell was a doctor, familiar with human anatomy, so if she said lody Baker had only sprained a muscle and not broken any bones, it ant that the bones were indeed unhard.
Yet, lody Baker was in agony, her face ghastly pale as she leaned against Jas Campbell, trembling all over in pain, her eyes glaring at Elly Campbell with a cold hostility.
Jas Campbell was watching her with clenched teeth, and he said coldly, “Are you satisfied now?”
“It’s fine, take her and scram.”
Elly Campbell looked like soone who had won a bargain and was smug about it, which nearly made Jas Campbell and lody Baker vomit blood in anger.
Jas Campbell, supporting lody Baker, walked slowly out of the Campbell family estate, and they could hear Elly’s voice tinged with false concern:
“Elly, you are just too kind. That woman wanted your life, yet you just let her walk away.”
“Yeah, I always seem to clash with these people because I’m just too kind.”
“…”
Go to hell with your kindness!
Jas Campbell and lody Baker were seething with anger in their hearts, but apart from cursing her as a bitch, there was nothing practical they could do.
After watching Jas Campbell and lody Baker leave the Campbell family’s gate, the two exchanged a look, and then Elly burst out laughing.
“My dear niece, seeing how you handled that idiot Jas Campbell felt so satisfying, I could eat two bowls of rice.”
Elly rely shrugged nonchalantly, rubbing the strained tendon on her wrist, “If we don’t teach those two a lesson, they’ll keep jumping around in front of , it’s irritating.”
Seeing her rubbing her wrist, Elly’s relative expressed concern, “How is it? Did you hurt a bone? Should we go to the hospital?”
“No need, it’s probably just a ligant strain, so dicine will suffice.”
The next day.
Jas Churchill went about his rounds visiting each ward as usual.
When it ca to Adam Jones’ turn and seeing that he was in good condition, Churchill said, “You can be discharged today, just be mindful of your diet.”
Adam Jones glanced at him, and recalling that this man had designs on Elly, did not want to give him the satisfaction of a pleasant face.
As Churchill was preparing to leave, Adam Jones said, “I could stay a few more days.”
Churchill’s footsteps halted abruptly, and he turned around to look at Adam Jones as if he were gazing at a fool.
A hospital stay can’t possibly compare to the Jones family mansion, can it?
He must be playing up his suffering to gain Elly’s sympathy, right?
Just as he thought this, Adam Jones, with a hint of smugness, said, “Elly is planning to cook soup for ; I can’t waste her kindness.”
Churchill: “…”
Isn’t this flaunting a bit too obvious?
Giving Adam Jones a look of disdain, Churchill said, “Hospital resources are limited, they’re not for you to waste. Do you know how many people are waiting for a bed?”
Unconcerned, Adam Jones scoffed, “I’ll donate money for a few hospital buildings.”
Churchill: “…”
Does having money an you can do whatever you want?
