Chapter 8 Haley’s resistance
“Do you think that you are right? Come on! Take her back!”
Jason suddenly shouted in the office.
Haley was stunned. She cried out, “Where are you going to take me? I am a citizen of Country M. You can’t restrict my freedom! It’s against the law!”
Jason laughed coldly. “Law? I make the law here!”
“……”
“Where are you going to take me, Jason? Are you crazy? You hoped that I never showed up in your life at that time. Why do you want to take me back now? Are you going to pretend to be a good husband? Or are you going to show your great love by having a wife and several concubines? You are crazy. Just let me go!”
Jason’s men escorted Haley from the third floor to the first floor. While the people on the third floor could still hear Haley’s shout from below.
Martin heard Haley’s shout too. Seeing that Jason was at the edge of losing his temper, Martin hoped that he could get out of this office now.
How terrible Jason looked!
How bold Haley was! She dared to scold such rude words. She would be severely punished if she was in the Black family.
At last, Haley was taken away.
The hospital was in a mess the whole morning. And after Dr. Demi was taken away, the hospital became quiet again.
. . .
In a high-end apartment in the city center.
Nancy had picked up Ian and Lily. As Haley told her, Nancy didn’t send the children back home. Instead, she sent Lily and Ian to her own apartment.
“I have to open the door of my shop, Lily and Ian. You can watch TV and stay here. Wait for me and I will bring back some food and snacks later.”
“OK, aunt Nancy.”
Lily nodded at once.
Ian nodded too. But he went to the telephone the minute Nancy left. He wanted to make a phone call.
Lily ran to Ian with a doll in her hand and asked, “What are you going to do, Ian ?”
Ian picked up the receiver and said, “I want to call Mum. I want to check if she is in the hospital.”
Lily was confused.
She was not as clever as Ian. Haley told them that she had to go to the hospital. But she couldn’t understand why Mum wouldn’t be in the hospital.
Lily looked at Ian in confusion. She found it a little boring and then went to watch a cartoon with her doll.
Ten minutes later, someone answered the phone.
“Hello.”
“Hello. I want to know if Dr. Demi is here today.”
“I’m sorry. Dr. Demi isn’t here today. If you have an appointment with her, you can make another appointment later.”
The nurse on the phone told Ian in a soft voice that Haley wasn’t in the hospital.
How could this be possible?All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Where else could Haley go except to the hospital?
Ian didn’t believe the nurse but he knew that it was no use keeping asking. So he climbed down the chair and went to Nancy’s study.
He turned on Nancy’s computer. Several minutes later, he found the surveillance camera of the Pukins Hospital.
Ian checked the video and found Haley in the hall, in the elevator and at the door of the office of the director.
Haley came into the office herself. But Ian was confused about why Haley was carried out of the office by the people in black.
Ian frowned deeply. He was worried about Haley.
In the Hilton Hotel.
Haley didn’t stop struggling after she was taken here.
But she was too weak compared to the bodyguards in black, who were tall and strong. At last, , Haley was taken to the top floor with Jason.
“I will never treat you, Jason! Just give up!”
Haley came in. She didn’t look around and admire how luxurious and broad the top was. Haley rubbed her wrists, which hurt a little, and asked Jason to give up.
Jason didn’t make any response. While a small boy came from the other end of the living room.
Haley didn’t know who he was.
“You come back. You are thirty-eight minutes later. I can skip kindergarten today.”
It was a boy who looked like Jason. He put on a long face and looked as cool and indifferent as Jason.
What was more, their tone was alike too.
Haley was shocked. She forgot what she was going to say.
Jason just ignored Haley. He came to Roy and tried to be patient. He said, “I’m busy this morning. So, I am late. I promise that I will make up for you. Is it okay ?”
Roy was expressionless. He said, “Do you also fail to keep your word when you sign a contract with others ?”
Jason didn’t know what to say.
Haley was surprised to see this.
Jason was angry and Haley was stunned. Suddenly, Roy looked at Haley.
He asked, “Who is she ?”
“!!”
Haley was so excited that she felt that her heart was going to come out through her throat, and she couldn’t hear things clearly. She was trembling.
