Have I Told You Lately

Chapter 108: Life and Death

“Rach!”

Theresa and Lillian looked pale in fear. They rushed towards her and protectively hid her behind them.

How could those men break in here? They wondered what on early was going on outside.

Lillian snapped, “You do have guts!”

With fierce looks, the three men questioned, “Are you his family?”

Rachel’s heart sank, shivers going down her spine.

She realized that those men were absolutely not those keyboard men. They came here for revenge

because of what her father had done to them. Their eyes were full of strong hatred and the

determination to do whatever it would take.

She panicked and pushed Lillian hurriedly. “Lillian, take your Mom out. My family business has nothing

to do with you. Don’t get you involved.”

Theresa gaped, yelling in tears, “Rach!”

“Aunt, thank you for visiting my father today, but I don’t want to get you involved. Please go home.” As

Rachel spoke, she winked at Lillian.

As long as she could same any of them, it would be fine. If they all stayed in the ward, they all might be

in danger. How could they win against three strong young men? Besides, she mustn’t get her best

friend hurt.

Struggling, Lillian bit her lower lips. Then she made up her mind and said to Theresa, “Mom, you can

leave first. I guess they are reporters here to do an interview. I’ll accompany my friend.”

Theresa was in a panic. Still, she had her reason maintained. With a tremble, she nodded in

agreement. “Okay. I’ll go get you some water.”

Rachel pursed her lips and tried to keep calm. She watched Theresa walking out as if each step was

stepped on her heart.

“Bang!”

When Theresa almost reached the door, the unclosed door was smashed to close. A man twisted the

doorknob to lock it from the inside.

“Nobody is fucking allowed to leave here!”

Upon hearing it, all of the women’s faces turned as paled as the dead, their pupils shrinking.

“You... What are you doing?” Lillian gritted her teeth and glared at those men. “If you kill us, you would

get a heavier punishment than that of the man lying on the bed. You’ll be sentenced to death. You

should think twice.”

“Ho, sentenced to death? If I can’t kill him today, my efforts today would be in vain.” One of the men

laughed cruelly. He pulled out a dagger and smashed it on the chair.

The blood on Rachel’s lips drained in an instant. She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost

sank into her palms. Her back was totally soaked in sweat, horror surging up from the bottom of her

heart to her brain.

She stared at the dagger and swallowed hard. Pretending to be calm, she said with a trembling voice,

“Please calm down, Misters. Please make it clear. Even if you want to kill us, we should know the

reasons, right?”

“My father is a corrupted official and he has done a lot of evil things. I can’t put on any good words for

him. You’ve broken in with hatred and anger and you want to revenge on him no matter what it’ll take. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Honestly, I’m quite impressed. But there’s always retribution to the bad ones. Please don’t harm the

innocent. These two ladies have nothing to do with my father.”

“Rach!” Theresa couldn’t hold any longer. Grabbing her hand, she collapsed and burst into tears. “I’m

your mother. If you both are dead, how could I live on?”

Rachel’s expression changed, looking back at her helplessly and sadly.

Theresa pushed her behind protectively and begged those men in tears, “I’m her mother. The man on

the bed is my husband. If you want to revenge, you can kill us. It’s none of my daughter’s business...”

“Mom!”

“Aunt!”

“Enough!” the three men yelled, out of patience.

“You all have death wishes, don’t you? Okay. I’ll fulfill your wishes later!”

Rachel’s hand pinched her phone in her pocket, sweating. She couldn’t move recklessly. If they were

irritated, the result would be more horrible.

She inhaled and kept calm. Looking straight at the men in front, she was a little short of breath.

“Misters, could you let me know how my father has harmed you? If you still have families, I hope you

calm yourselves down. Please don’t repeat the same mistakes. Think about what your daughters’

future lives would be in the future.”

As soon as she finished her words, the three men went furious instantly. With a ruthless face, one of

them walked to her and strangled her neck, roaring excitedly, “How dare you to mention about my

family? It’s all because of your father. There was a project collapse in City N last year. Do you know

how many people were killed? Do you know how many family members were living in the employee

accommodation? My wife and my daughter... they were both buried in the ruins. The direct murder is

the project owner, but the judge said there should be more than one person to take the responsibilities.

Finally, the owner was sentenced to less than ten years. That judge is your good father!”

“If it weren’t that he has been bribed if it weren’t that he used some methods, how could the sentence

be only ten years? The project owner should be sentenced to death! Death!”

The more the man spoke, the more emotional he became. As if he had lost his mind, he couldn’t

control his strength on his hand at all. Rachel’s face had already turned livid under his strangle. She

gritted her teeth and pressed on his hand with all her strength.

“Rach!”

“Let go of her! Let go!”

“Rich!” Theresa roared herself hoarse.

She tried to break off the man’s arm. Lillian fumbled for a chair next to her in a panic. When she was

about to smash it on that man, another two stopped her.

“Let go... Let go of me! Rach...” Lillian yelled and struggled fiercely, hoping her voice could be heard

outside the door.

However, the sound insulation effect of the hospital was quite good. Although some of her cries leaked

out, people outside only felt a bit noisy, mistaking that the patient’s family was crying. Nobody paid

attention.

“Ahem...”

Rachel couldn’t utter a sound at all. She only felt her brain lacked oxygen. Her eyes were getting

darker, and her body began to lose strength.

“Go to hell! Die! I’ll kill you all to compensate...”

The man laughed crazily, his eyes bloodshot.

“Bang!”

At the critical moment, the door was suddenly kicked open from the outside.

“Rach!” An angry roar sounded out. The man was already kicked away before he could come back to

his senses from the craziness.

“All freeze!”

A group of guards rushed in, controlling the three men quickly.

Rachel’s limp body was held up just in time.

“Rach!” Kenneth was so frightened that his paled handsome face tightened, and the blue veins on his

forehead almost broke. Staring at her, he shouted towards the outside, “Doctor!”

“Rach!”

The ward became chaotic instantly.

Meanwhile, another two figures were standing at the door - Krista and Sabrina.

Although they had already entered the hospital, unexpectedly, Kenneth blocked their ways suddenly.

However, nobody had expected that there was a battle for life and death in the ward while Kenneth

wasted some time on the way.
