He did not expect this man to be Jason from Emerald City. He had naturally heard about the Reed family of Emerald City and knew their status in Emerald City.
It was surprising that such a person would get involved in Amber Mitchellâs affairs.
âMr. Reed, I didnât expect to see you again,â said George Gregory.
Jason smiled. âMr. Gregory, Iâm afraid itâs not inappropriate for you to intrude into another patientâs ward like this. If I report this to the police, it might hurt your reputation.â
âIâm only here to meet someone I used to know. Now that Iâve met her, itâs time for me to go,â George Gregory said as he glanced at Amber Mitchell, who was sitting up on the hospital bed. âIt seems I did the right thing by not marrying you.â
Amber Mitchell smiled, but her eyes were full of disappointment. âItâs a good thing I didnât marry you either.â
George Gregory left with his men. Grace came over and asked, âAre you okay? He didnât do anything to you, did he?â
Amber Mitchell shook her head. âHe just said some things that donât matter. Itâs nothing.â
Yeah, it would not affect her no matter what George Gregory said.
âI didnât expect him to barge in with his men. Iâll ask Jay to station more men in front of the ward,â said Grace.
âThank you. I wonder when I can return the favor,â said Amber Mitchell.
âThereâs no need to return the favor. Iâm helping you because of Kyla and because I think you donât deserve to be treated this way. Thereâs justice in this world,â said Grace.
âJustice?â Amber Mitchellâs eyes could not help getting wet. If there was justice, would she be able to find out who caused the accident and killed Herman?
Hermanâ¦
Thinking back to the moment of the crash, he had turned the steering wheel around to bear the brunt of the force himself. At the moment of impact, he unbuckled his seat belt and threw himself on top of her, shielding her with all his strength.
His last words rang out in her ears⦠âAmber Mitchell, you must live a good life.â
Live a good life!
When she was imprisoned in the mental hospital and thinking that she was about to lose her mind from the torture, Hermanâs words always rang in her ears. They stopped her from wanting to kill herself.
She was no longer living for herself but for Herman.
She wanted to find out the real culprit of the car accident and get justice for Herman. She could not waste the life Herman tried so hard to save!
âThe consultation with the specialists is in a couple of days. Weâll find out whether youâre mentally ill by then. Just try to rest and relax for the next two days. Be at your best for the consultation,â said Grace.
âOkay, got it. I wonât waste this hard-won opportunity,â said Amber Mitchell.
Grace gave a few more words of advice before leaving with Jason.
In the ward, Amber Mitchell looked down at her mutilated right hand and murmured, âHerman, youâll protect me, right? Iâm sure Iâll do well during the consultation in two days, and thenâ¦â She would be truly free.
One could only do some things when one was truly free!
