Chapter 92 This Old Fox
At the hospital.
Mary opened her eyes and saw the snow-white wall. The smell of medicine permeated the ward. She felt that her body was light as if her internal organs had been hollowed out. For a moment, she felt that she was dead.
Then she heard Sally crying. "Mary, my daughter, you finally woke up."
Sally's voice was hoarse. Mike let out a long sigh of relief. He hurriedly bowed to the window. "God. Thank you for returning my daughter to me."
Mike, an old man, couldn't help but cry either.
"Mom, what happened to me?" Mary said weakly.
"Mary." Sally covered her mouth and cried again.
The doctor had issued several notices of critical condition. It said that Mary had taken a large amount of sex hormone drugs and gotten an excessive sexual desire. Her heartbeat had been too fast and almost caused her sudden death.
Mike and Sally never thought that those things would be associated with their innocent and cute daughter.
Mary remembered what had happened. She remembered that Johny had fed her the pills in her bag, and then she was thrown into a hall. She felt so hot and wanted to cool down, and then she seemed to see Henry.
She had been screwing Henry for a long time. She couldn't remember what happened after that.
"It was Johny! He destroyed me! It was him!" Mary sat up abruptly.
"Mary, did you connect Johny again?" Mike looked at Mary.
Mary felt a little guilty. After all, she had taken the initiative to find Johny twice in a row. Moreover, Mike had warned her not to ask for trouble long ago.
"He likes Ceres and wants to avenge for her. Dad, it has nothing to do with me!"
"I knew it! She is too proud now." Sally gritted her teeth.
As she spoke, Sally called Ceres to the hospital.
Ceres did not want to come, but Sally was her mother. She could not change this fact. As soon as she entered the ward, Sally slapped her.
"You think you could do whatever you want because Johny likes you? You even harmed your sister!" Sally glared at Ceres.
Mary sat on the bed. Seeing Sally help her vent her anger, she was so smug.
"Mary and I both called you mom. We are both your daughters. Why am I always the one to blame? Yes! Johny did it. Why don't you ask why he did this?"
"I went to work in the bar, but Mary drugged me! I almost got raped! Johny did this to her because he wanted to revenge for me!" Ceres looked at Mary in anger. "What are you talking about? I didn't! You are slandering!" Mary naturally wouldn't admit it.
Sally raised her hand and wanted to slap Ceres once again. Ceres grabbed her wrist and pushed hard. Sally took a few steps back and crashed into the wall.
"How dare you push me! I am your mother! Aren't you afraid of heaven's punishment?"
Ceres sneered. "Have you ever done your duty as my mother? Aren't you afraid of heaven's punishment?"
"You..."
"You left my father before I was born a full month. I saw you for the first time when I was twelve! How did you treat me? You always sided with Mary. Even if Mary was wrong, it was my fault!" Ceres looked at her mother with red eyes.
She was so scared when her father was in prison. The fear lingered in her heart day and night. She knew that her mother left her before she was a month old, but she still longed for her mother's love. When she came to the Morris's, she longed for her mother to hug her, comfort her, and give her a bit of warmth. However, what Sally did finally let her sink into despair.
Sally was her only relative, but she did not believe her!
"I won't explain. Believe it or not, I didn't do anything bad. I am not afraid!" As she spoke, Ceres turned around and left.
She was desperate.
Sally always preferred Mary over trivial matters when she was young. However, Mary had almost caused her to be raped this time, and Sally was still like this.
She was so stupid to expect her mother to change her mind.
"Wait, I have something to talk to you about." Mike, who had been silent just now, finally spoke.
Mike brought Ceres to the corner of the hospital corridor. There was no one there and it was very quiet.
"Say it quickly."
"I know that Johny spoils you now. No matter what methods you use, it is the truth."
Mike couldn't understand why Johny liked Ceres. She was so ugly and the red spots on her face were very scary.
Ceres sneered and did not answer.
"But don't forget that I'm in charge of your father's case."
Ceres knew that Mike would mention her father's case. "What do you want to say?"
"You didn't tell Johny that your father was a murderer, did you?"
"My father is not a murderer!" Ceres immediately retorted.
"I know you don't believe that your father is a murderer, but the evidence is conclusive, and the court has also sentenced him. The reality is that your father is in prison because of murder. You promise me two things, and I will help your father out immediately."
"Isn't it a bit faster for me to ask for Johny?" Ceres sneered.
"You don't dare! You don't tell Johny because you are worried that Johny would dislike you because of this matter, right? How could the Winsors let a murderer's daughter marry Johny?"
Mike was right. Ceres did not expect that Mike thought the situation so thoroughly.
She didn't want to hide it from Johny. However, the more she loved Johny, the more afraid she was. She was afraid that Johny would dislike her because of this.
He loved her so much and made her feel warm. She had never been loved like this and didn't want to lose him.
"I won't make things difficult for you. As long as you let Johny let go of Mary and let him cooperate with the Morris Group, I will get your father out as soon as possible. I will keep it a secret and not let Johny know. What do you think?"
Ceres frowned.
What a wily old fox Mike was!
