Chapter 489

No one even bothered helping to change her clothes.

Anne helped to clean the blood and sobbed.

She hated Anthony and herself for making Sarah stay in Santa Nila.

When something happened, it was impossible for Anne to help. Had it not been for Nigel's friend, no one would be there to pay for the fees in the hospital, and Sarah might be left to die on the road.

Anne's heart ached as she thought about it.

Just then, someone knocked on the door. A mid-aged woman walked in with a young child, before falling on her knees.

"Who are you?" Anne asked in confusion.

"I'm here to apologize. It's my husband who hit your mother. I'm so sorry..."

Anne could not feel any sympathy for them as she stared at the woman before her, especially not when her own mother was still unconscious.

"What's the point of saying you are sorry now? Will that help my mom wake up? I will forgive you if she does!" Anne could not control her anger.

"Please, I'm begging you. I am taking care of our son on my own and my husband is our only source of income. Can you please forgive him? He didn't do this on purpose. I swear!"

Anne glanced at the confused little boy and thought to herself, 'How's going to show pity on me, then?"

"The police said that this can all be resolved if you are willing to settle this in private. How...how much do you want? I have no money but I can borrow or beg.”

Anne's chest heaved in anger. "Do you really think that money will resolve everything? You only care about your family and don't give a damn about what happens to my mom, do you?"

"No, that's not what I mean. No..."

Nigel walked into the scene and immediately guessed who the person kneeling was. "Don't make impossible requests. We won't accept settling this in private. Just let the police do this the right way."

"That means my husband has to go to jail, then. No, he can't go to jail. Please spare US. How are we going to survive if he goes to jail?" The woman bowed her head at Anne.

Startled, Anne took a step back.

Nigel walked over and stood in front of Anne. "I'm calling security if you don't leave right now!" The woman straightened her back and glared at them resentfully. "Will you not be satisfied until my husband is in jail and our family is torn apart? You have no mercy! Do you not have any children? Sweetie, kneel before them and beg for their mercy!” She dragged her son over to kneel as well. 1 Tears scrolled down Anne's face in the midst of her rage and thought to herself, Tve never seen people like this. We have no mercy? Who exactly is at fault here? Why is she making it like it's our fault? This is ridiculous!

In the end, Nigel called the security guards to take the woman away, before the silence returned to the room.

"We will have to settle this the right way. Begging US won't make a difference," Nigel said.

Anne nodded. "What did the doctor say, Dad?"

“The hospital will find US the best experts. Don't worry."

Anne glanced at Sarah and wished that the experts could help her mother regain consciousness. She swore to herself that she would take Sarah to Luton if she ever woke up and Anne would do anything to please Anthony if it meant that her mother would not need to stay in a foreign city alone again.
