Chapter 47 The Failed Man
Chapter 47 The Failed Man
"By the way..." Suddenly, something occurred to Lily. She left Tina and asked, "Uncle Kerr, you said you know the bad man, who is he?"
Hearing her question, an unnatural expression flashed across Kerr's face. "Victor Liu."
"It's him!" Lily was shocked. From the beginning to the end, she had been suspecting that it was Lucia. She didn't expect that the person turned out to be Victor.
His revenge is too strong. Last time when he tried to rape her, she didn't hold him accountable, but was punished for a part-time job in the library, she did not expect that he wanted his own life!
"Yes." Kerr felt embarrassed and continued, "I didn't expect him at first. But I learned from the man they brought back that he was indeed Victor."
"Who is Victor?" Asked Tina, who had no idea whom they were talking about.
Kerr looked at her guiltily and answered, "He's our teacher."
"A teacher? !" Tina looked at him in disbelief, "How dare you have such a teacher in your school?"
"I'm sorry, Tina. I didn't expect that, either." Kerr apologized in a hurry.
"You are the largest shareholder in the school. Did you strictly check the employees before recruiting? And why did you recruit such a teacher?"
Tina was not the kind of girl who liked to argue. But it almost killed her own daughter this time. That was why she was so agitated.
"Calm down, Tina. Let me explain." He comforted her immediately, "It's indeed my mistake, but not every teacher chosen by me..."
"What's the point of explaining this to me?" Tina interrupted him, "Things have already happened. Fortunately, Lily is fine. If there is something bad happening, I won't let you go."
"Okay, okay, calm down first."
"Mom, don't angry, don't blame uncle Kerr." Lily also tried to console her, "This has nothing to do with him."
"Humph!" She gave a reproachful glance at Kerr, and remained silent.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Kerr touched his nose unnaturally. Seeing this, Lily turned around and said to him, "Uncle Kerr, my mother is in a hurry. Please don't blame her."
"How could I be angry? Your mother doesn't blame me. I'm already very happy."
After hearing that, Lily smiled. Now she was 100% sure that Kerr likes her mother!
At this moment, the phone rang. Kerr took out the phone and said, "I have to take a call."
Then he walked out of the room quickly.
The door was closed, and then it was opened again. Lily and Tina thought Ker answered the phone so soon. When they turned around, they saw Dillon who was confused.
"Lily, why do you have this doorplate?" He raised his head and was surprised to see her, "Tina, why are you here?"
Looking at Dillon coldly, Lily felt ironic. He ignored her this morning but now came to the hospital with a lunch box in his hands.
Looking at Dillon, Tina with anger in her eyes, walked straight to him, and slapped his face when he didn't know what had happened.
Slap!
The slap almost resounded through the whole ward. The sound scared both Dillon and Lily. It was the first time that she had seen her mother slap someone, and she slapped him so hard.
"When we divorced, you said you wanted daughter. In order to keep her from suffering with me, so I left her in the Qiao family. But what did you do to her?" Questioned Tina furiously.
"Why do you turn a blind eye to what happened to her? You even don't care if she is bullied at home. Dillon, is this the way you take care of your daughter?"
"It's normal for children to play and have fun together. Besides, Lily is older than Claire, so she should be modest at home." He explained.
"Ha, modest?" Tina sneered, "Dillon, I feel so lucky that I have divorced you."
All of these were Colin told her. He told her that Lily didn't have a good time in the Qiao family and was often bullied.
Dillon frowned. Apparently, he was not happy. Being slapped by a woman, as a man, it was naturally difficult to fight back.
"We were about to get divorced. When we got married, we had no feeling to each other. If it wasn't for my dad to force me, I wouldn't marry you."
Huh Tina sneered and her eyes turned red. She loved and hated the man in front of her, but now she hated him.
"Yes, that's all my wishful thinking. It's all my fault." While saying that, she raised her head to force back the tears from the corners of her eyes. After returning to normal, she continued, "If you still let Lucia do like this, you may be defeated by her in the end."
"What do you mean?" He frowned.
"What do I mean?" Tina raised her voice and sneered, "Go back and ask her or you don't know why before you die."
"You!" Looking at her in bewilderment, Dillon shook his head and said, "Tina, you've changed. You've never provoked dissension in the past. And you never said such malicious words."
"No, I won't." Tina shook her head slightly and said, "It's not that I've changed. It's just that you don't know me well."
Lily listened to their conversation quietly. Now she knew that they had no feelings for each other when they got married before. Her grandfather forced him to marry her mother.
At this time, the door of the ward was pushed open again. After answering the phone, Kerr walked in. He frowned unconsciously when he saw the situation inside.
"Tina, what happened?" Seeing her eyes a little red, Kerr walked to her side and asked with concern.
Tina shooked her head and said, "It's okay. I just met someone I don't want to see."
"I finally know what happened." Thinking of what happened this morning, Dillon laughed ironically. "Tina, I didn't expect that you would come back to Kerr's side as soon as you got divorced. You are not reconciled to be alone, right?"
"Yes." Tina admitted with a smile and said sarcastically, "That's better than you are. At least, I won't cheat on you during our marriage, and I won't have a baby with someone else."
"You..." Dillon's face turned red and pale out of anger, but he could find nothing to refute.
It was not until this moment that Lily realized her mother was not a coward and afraid of being bullied. It was because she loved his father so much that she endured everything.
Kerr looked at him with cold eyes and said, "Dillon, as a man, the biggest failure is not to have a mistress outside or have a child outside, but to sneer at his ex-wife and to allow his child to be bullied!"
After saying that, he turned his head to look at Tina and said, "We have to go back first. I have something to deal with at school, and the police has sent a message that they have been arrested."
Tina nodded and turned to look at Lily, "Lily, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Okay." Lily nodded and said, "Thank you, uncle Kerr. Can you take me to the police station tomorrow?"
Knowing what she meant, he nodded and promised, "I'll pick you up with your mother tomorrow."
"Thank you."
The ward became quiet after they left. Lily didn't want to talk to her father and he didn't know what to say. What he had done to her recently really hurt her.
At the thought of this, Dillon passed the lunch box to her and said, "I asked Jane to make this according to your taste."
Lily said indifferently as he took the card. "Thank you." She didn't call him father.
"I'm leaving. Take care of yourself." Then he turned around and left.
Looking at his back, Lily smiled coldly. He was coward as a man and failed as a father.
Her mother was right, although he looked successful, if he continued to be humiliated, he would certainly lose to Lucia.
Lily walked to the window and watched the car leaving. She walked out with a lunch box. When she passed through the hospital corridor, she saw a trash can and threw it directly into the trash can. Then she turned downstairs and walked towards the restaurant near the hospital.
She bought two meals, two stir fries and one soup. She took them back and went to Eric's ward.
When Lily walked to the door of his ward, she looked inside through the transparent glass frame on the door. She pushed the door open and walked in when she saw that there was only Eric lying on the bed.
Hearing the door open, Eric looked up subconsciously and saw her with a lunch box on her hand. A smile immediately appeared on his face, "I'm just hungry."
"The food in the hospital is not delicious. I bought it from restaurants outside. I don't know if it tastes well." While she was speaking, she had already walked to the bedside of Eric. She opened the medical dinning table and put the lunch boxes on it.
"Here you are." She handed a pair of chopsticks to Eric.
Seeing the chopsticks in front of him, Eric became unhappy at once. "I told you this morning that I can't move my hand, or my injured ribs will be hurt."
"Well, let me feed you."
She picked up a piece of braised beef by chopsticks and fed it to his mouth. "Open your mouth."
When he took a few bites, he frowned and said, "It tastes bad."
"Awful?" She asked.
"Yes." He nodded, chewing the food in his mouth without stopping.
Seeing this, Lily picked up a piece and fed it into her mouth, without noticing that the pair of chopsticks had just entered Eric's mouth.
"Not bad. You are too picky."
This sudden move made Eric lowered his head, with a gleam of smile in his eyes.
