Chapter 386: Chapter 328 Conniving Little Bitch
The next day, when lissa and Murray got off work, they went to the hospital to visit Marc.
The woman pushed the door open and saw Dr. White doing a routine check on him.
Seeing the couple, the doctor stood up and greeted them, "Mr. Gibson, Ms. Eugen, nice to see you here."
"How is Marc?" lissa asked with concern.
"He just had a check-up. All the indicators are fine," Dr. White replied.
"Great." She was pleased.
It seed that Luca was right. Marc was getting better.
It shouldn’t take long for him to fully recover.
"Murray, li, you are here. I feel much better now. I’ll be discharged very soon," The old man said.
"Marc, you should stay here for a few more days. Have enough rest." lissa said with a smile.
But Marc replied, a bit upset, "I’m so bored. Staying in the hospital makes
sick. Besides, you are getting engaged at the end of the month. I have to get ready."
"Grandfather, don’t worry. Leave the preparation to . Just stay in the hospital and have more rest. I will help you check out when you fully recover." Murray said, drawing closer to Marc.
Since they insisted, Marc budged.
He talked to them about the engagent until he got tired.
"Grandfather, we need to leave. Take care," lissa said.
"Alright, go out and have so fun." Marc nodded. He was also delighted to see them bonding.
lissa and Murray had just co out of the ward when they saw a nurse running toward them.
"Mr. Gibson, ergency!" The nurse shouted in panic.
"What’s wrong?" He asked confused .
"Ms. Sofia is trying to jump off the building!" The nurse gasped as she stared cautiously at Murray.
Ryleigh was killing herself?
lissa twitched her lips. She knew Ryleigh, that conniving little bitch, would do sothing.
Murray glimpsed at his bride to be, frowning.
"Go take a look," lissa said, narrowing her eyes.
The woman must have gotten desperate after she overheard their engagent.
She said she had stage four stomach cancer and then tried to commit suicide. What was next?
The corners of lissa’s mouth curled into a sarcastic smile.
Ryleigh was getting impatient.
The more anxious she was, the dumber things she would do, and the more loopholes she would create.
The truth was about to be exposed.
The couple followed the nurse to the rooftop and saw Ryleigh standing on the edge in a gown with blue and white stripes.
Below the building was a crowd, pointing at her and discussing. All eyes fell on Ryleigh.
"Look, soone is going to jump off the building!"
"It’s dangerous. Co down now!"
"Hey, that woman looks familiar. She’s Mr. Gibson’s first love, Ms. Sofia. I read about her on the Internet."
"It is her. Why is she trying to jump off the building?"
...
The nurse turned pale, "Mr. Gibson, please do sothing. Talk to Ms. Sofia. We’ve tried everything, but she didn’t listen to us. We have already called the police. But can you please talk to her?"
lissa watched it coldly and gave Murray a look.
"Alright." Murray’s tone was deep. He carefully took a few steps towards Ryleigh.
"What are you doing? Co down!" He said steady as he stared at Ryleigh’s back.
"Murray, why are you here?" She turned around. Her face was pale, and her eyes glinted with bitterness.
The woman looked at lissa standing not far away. Ryleigh’s eyes were full of tears. "Murray, just let
die! My days are numbered, anyway. lissa will not quarrel with you anymore. I hate to see you fight because of . I don’t want to be a hurdle for you.
"lissa, don’t be mad at Murray, please. It’s all my fault. He is just too worried about ."
Ryleigh begged, with her gaze fixed on lissa, as if she had done sothing bad to her.
When she was pleading, the doctors and nurses, who were here to persuade Ryleigh, all stared at lissa in disdain.
These people had been following the news and read a lot about their entanglent.
Now Ryleigh was playing the victim, trying to win people’s sympathy.
Human psychology was intriguing, as people would often show sympathy to the vulnerable no matter whose fault it was.
"So, you were saying I stole your man?" lissa remained calm, holding her arms and raising her eyebrows at her.
Other won would get mad if they were in the sa circumstance. But lissa was an exception.
Ryleigh hid her hatred, took a deep breath, and told herself to be calm.
As she made up her mind, there was no way of going back.
She must get what she wanted today!
"No. That’s not what I ant. How could Murray be mine?" Ryleigh looked at him, her eyes filled with infatuation.
Her gaze was so intent that everyone could tell she had feelings for him.
"Ryleigh..." Murray was getting impatient.
He squinted at lissa, who was wearing a playful smile. Then, he said to Ryleigh softly, "Co down, please. It’s too dangerous up there. I never thought that you were a burden to ."
"Really?" Ryleigh did not see the interaction between Murray and lissa. She thought her trick worked and Murray backed down. The thought lifted her mood.
"Murray, will you leave ?" she asked poorly, biting her lips.
"Never." Murray curled up his lips, putting on a gentle look.
Ryleigh heart pounded in excitent, but she still pretended to be sad. "Forget it, Murray. It’s too painful to live a life. I wanted to congratulate you and lissa, but I can’t do it. I’m in sorrow."
After a brief pause, Ryleigh continued, sobbing, "I don’t understand. I was the one who t you first. You said that you would marry
when you grew up. Maybe I made too many mistakes. That’s why I’m punished."
As she spoke, she took several steps back in despair until she was on the very edge of the rooftop.
Ryleigh was so frail that it was as if she would be blown down the building by a gust of wind.
She was only a step away from falling from it.
