Chapter 2

Remove the eyeball?

I felt the world spinning around me.

Ethan was calm.

After the doctor left, he had to follow the nurse to pay for the bills.

I immediately came to my senses and grabbed him. "Eddy did it. Shouldn't Clifton pay?"

Clifton was stunned. He looked at me and then at Ethan. "Ethan, I have no money. Marie controls it."

"Go pay now. I'll give you the rest when she is discharged from the hospital, okay?"

Ethan was too embarrassed to accept it. He said that there was no need to settle the score as they were brothers. Then he was about to leave.

I grabbed him.

"Eddy made the mistake. Clifton, you'd better call Marie and ask her to bring the money over as soon as possible!"

Seeing this, Emma was unhappy. "Hey, Ava, what's wrong with you today? Clifton has already said that he didn't bring any money with him. Why are you pushing him so hard?"

I knew that if they didn't pay now, they wouldn't after Julie was discharged.

They must pay, or they wouldn't learn the lesson.

What if it got infected?

Ethan was annoyed. He shook off my hand and said, "Ava, why are you still fussing about money at this point? What's going on with you today?"

I choked with anger.

He could only watch this fool leave.

We had to pay 100,000 dollars that day.

Ethan paid reluctantly. Emma and Clifton took the opportunity to slip away.

He earned 4,000 dollars. We may not be able to save so much in two years.

He blamed me for coming to the hospital.

I had no time to argue with him.

Julie was in a coma in the ICU, her eyes were still covered with blood. I felt so distressed when I saw that and burst into tears.

Clifton and I live in the same neighborhood.

Today was the weekend, and Emma brought Clifton's son, Eddy, over to our apartment.

Eddy was more than half a year older than Julie and was usually very naughty.

At present, he was the only grandson of the Leonard family. Emma spoiled him.

Julie was taught to be polite and always gave in to Eddy.

She didn't even tell me when Eddy took things for her or hit her.

Ethan had always tell me to forget about it, since we were family.

But I didn't expect that Eddy dared to stab Julie's eye with a pencil today. I really wanted to stab him now!

I regretted that I went to cook and let Julie stay with Eddy and Emma.

Thinking of this, I felt as if my heart was being held tightly by a big hand. I couldn't breathe.

I only hope that Julie would be fine this time.

After that, I'd sell the house and move somewhere far away from these bastards.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Ethan suddenly said, "Ava, weren't you resting at home today? Why didn't you keep an eye on Julie?"

"At the end of the day, it's not my mother's fault. It's also your fault. Do you know how much money we spent?"

I turned around angrily and slapped him. "Get lost!"

He hadn't even looked at Julie yet.

Why did I marry such a coward?

He didn't dare to say a word in front of his mother and brother. He blamed everything on me.

I suddenly realized that I had been too quiet all this time.

That was why people were bullying me.

Ethan covered his face and said angrily, "Ava, you're crazy!"
