It was not until the next morning that Sofia Smith awoke.
After waking up, her spirits were not very good. The main reason was her low mood, speaking little, and eating very little.
Amelia Smith and Eleanor Smith accompanied her for half a day. After eating a little lunch, she went back to sleep.
When she fell asleep, Amelia Smith and Eleanor Smith left the ward and went outside.
âWhat should we do?â Eleanor Smith asked, âBig sister has never been like this before.â
Amelia Smith remained silent without speaking.
The two sisters spoke outside for a while, and Amelia Smith said, âSecond sister, you and brother-in-law still have to work, so go back tomorrow.â
âYou donât have time either,â Eleanor Smith replied, âItâs okay for both of us to take two days off from work.â
âRoy Madison has hired a caregiver who will take care of Big Sisterâs diet and daily life, and he will come this afternoon,â Amelia Smith said.
Eleanor Smith nodded and patted Ameliaâs shoulder, âAmelia, this man is really good, very attentive.â
Amelia Smith just smiled.
The two sisters chatted about Sofiaâs condition outside for a while and then returned to the ward to accompany their big sister.
In the afternoon, when the caregiver came, Sofia Smith asked Amelia Smith and Eleanor Smith to go to the Turner house to collect some of her documents.
Roy Madison had left the night before, leaving James Lane behind.
So Amelia Smith asked James Lane to give them a ride.
Wherever Amelia Smith said they would go, James Lane would unhesitatingly take her there, regardless of whether the place was suitable for Amelia to visit.
He was only responsible for obeying orders.
So when Amelia Smith and Eleanor Smith opened the door to the Turner house, they were greeted by a courtyard full of⦠incapacitated people.
The dozens of bodyguards were all in the courtyard, with bruised noses and swollen faces. Each personâs mouth had been gagged, and their hands had been disabled, hanging limply by their sides.
Several men in black suits stood at the entrance of the courtyard, all of them guards from the Lane family.
Amelia Smith and Eleanor Smith were both taken aback.
Amelia Smith stared at the courtyard full of people for a while before asking, âWhatâs going on?â
James Lane closed the door and said calmly, âYoung Master said they had hurt Madamâs hand, so he had broken all of their hands.â
Eleanor Smith stared at James Lane in disbelief.
Amelia Smithâs lips trembled, âWhy, why didnât you take them away?â
âWell, the Young Master didnât let us take them away. They were beaten and interrogated here,â James Lane said, âHarris Richie and the Turner family of three are all inside the house.â
Eleanor Smith looked at Amelia Smith, she was a little scared.
At first, when she found out about Roy Madisonâs identity, she was very scared. But after a day of getting along, Roy Madison seemed unapproachable but was very gentle and respectful to them.
However⦠she still underestimated him.
It seemed like they were not living in the same world.
In Roy Madisonâs world, there were means and powers that they could not even imagine.
There seemed to be a whole other set of rules for survival.
Eleanor Smith was somewhat afraid that Amelia Smith would be bullied in such a life.
Amelia Smith saw the fear in her sisterâs eyes, stepped forward, and held her hand, âItâs okay, letâs go, sister. Letâs get the documents from the room first.â
Eleanor Smith followed her blankly into the room, and as soon as they entered, they saw the four people in the living room.
They actually looked fine, with no visible injuries on their bodies.
It was just their mental state that seemed not too good, all appearing somewhat stunned.
But when they saw Amelia Smith and Eleanor Smith, their expressions changed immediately.
Mrs. Turner looked as if she had seen her enemy, Adam Turner seemed to have seen his savior, and Mr. Turner and Harris Richie had no significant reaction.
Mr. Turnerâs lack of reaction was simply numbness. But Harris Richieâs lack of reaction was indifference, the kind of indifference that completely disregarded them.
Adam got up and walked toward Amelia, âAmelia, do you know these people? Please ask them to release us.â
James Lane stopped him.
Amelia stopped and looked at him.
Seeing that she had stopped, Adam smiled, âAmelia, please tell them to let us go. They donât let us go anywhere, and they only give us a little plain rice and green vegetables every day. We canât swallow it.â
James stood emotionless, blocking him from getting any closer.
âWhy donât you ask my sister?â Amelia said.
âYour sister? What happened to your sister?â Adam asked.
âDonât you know what happened to her?â Amelia stared at him, âAs her husband, donât you know what happened to her?â
âOh.â Adam said casually, âYou mean her miscarriage. Sheâs already been to the hospital, and the doctor said itâs nothing serious. Where is she? Why isnât she home, and why are we all trapped here?â
Eleanor couldnât believe her ears and stared at Adam in shock.
Ameliaâs eyelashes trembled a few times, and she asked, âWhat do you mean, itâs nothing serious? She was in the hospital for a day and a night, just waking up this morning. Sheâs your wife, is this how you treat her?â
âIs it that serious?â Adam said, âItâs just a lost child, right? How could her body be so weakâ¦.â
âGo to hell!â Eleanor charged forward and slapped him, then grabbed his hair, pulling it down viciously.
The force of her blow also jolted James, who was standing between them.
Adam was in pain, yelping, âMom! Mom! Mom! It hurts!â
Seeing her son being beaten, Mrs. Turner immediately rushed forward to hit Eleanor, âYou little bitch! How dare you touch my son, Iâll kill you!â
But just as she lifted her hands, one was held by James and the other by Amelia.
James looked to Amelia.
Amelia let go.
With a single powerful move, James threw Mrs. Turner to the side.
Amelia also pulled Eleanor away.
Adam covered his head and quickly retreated, while Mrs. Turner wanted to rush forward and hit Eleanor again, but seeing her son released she went to hold him instead, âSon, does it hurt? Does It hurt?â
Eleanor still held a clump of hair in her hand, forcefully threw it towards Adam and said, âStinking man! How dare you say youâre in pain? My sister was in much more pain in the hospital! How did I never notice before how lame you are! Spit! You worthless dog, youâre just wasting air!â
âThatâs enough, Second Sister Davis,â Amelia pulled her, âDonât stoop to their level.â
âMy sister was really blind to have spent so many years with you.â Eleanor continued to curse, âWhat a useless thing! Waste! Trash!â
âDo you think we, the Turner Family, wanted her?â Mrs. Turner cursed back, âOther than that captivating face, what else does she know how to do? If not for Max Smith selling her to us, we wouldnât have wanted her! She canât even give birth to a child! We donât even know where the money she has came from. We donât even know if the miscarried child was from our Turner Family!â
âIâm gonnaâ¦â Eleanor paced around the living room, eventually picked up a flower pot from the corner and threw it at them.
The vase shattered with a loud crash, and the soil inside fell out.
Mrs. Turner ducked with Adam, narrowly avoiding being hit.
âIâll kill you!â Eleanor still wanted to hit them.
Amelia held her back, âSecond sister, let it go.â
At that moment, Harris Richie, who had been watching from the side, suddenly laughed.
His laughter was still as carefree and relaxed as ever, as if everyone had just performed a family drama for his amusement.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
