Chapter 2144
The First Heir
District 4 of Arcadia Island, Newsea Hospital.
Janet Ball, who was wearing a red trench coat, brought her four-year-old son, Tom, to the hospital at
night.
In the hospital corridor, Tom saw Mila playing alone and immediately broke away from Janetâs hold.
âTom, where are you going?â
âIâm going to play with that little girl.â
Janet glanced at Mila and pursed her lips in disdain. âWhy play with her? Be careful of infectious
diseases or something.â
Mila heard Janetâs words and pouted angrily.
âDo you have an infectious disease?â
Tom stood in front of Mila and asked arrogantly with his head held high.
âNo, I donât.â
Mila turned around and ignored Tom.
Tom stared at Milaâs back. He stretched out his hand and punched Milaâs back abruptly, causing her to
lean against the wall of the corridor.
The pain brought tears to Milaâs eyes. âWhy did you hit me?â
âYou have an infectious disease. Youâre evil. Iâm fighting evil. Iâll kill you so that you wonât infect others.â
Tom cursed and even spat at Mila.
âYouâre evil. Itâs you.â
Mila waved her hands at Tomâs face.
Tom staggered back and fell to the floor.
Seeing her son fall to the floor, Janet hurried over and shouted at Mila, âWho are your parents? How
dare a wild brat like you do this to my son? If you can do this as a child, what will become of you when
you grow up?â
Mila shrank back as she stared at Janet, frightened to tears by her fierce look.
âItâs common for kids to horse around when they play. This little girlâs parents are usually away but
sheâs a sensible child. Donât yell at her like that.â
The people in the ward tried to persuade Janet.
âMind your own business. My son fell because of this wild girl. If anything happens to him, will you take
responsibility for it? Do you know who I am? Do you know who my sonâs father is? Do you know who
my brother is? If you offend our family, you wonât be able to see a doctor for the rest of your life!â
Janet roared angrily, frightening the bystanders. They retreated into their wards, not daring to speak
again.
Turning around, Janet grabbed Mila by her collar and shook her vigorously while yelling, âYouâre just a
wild child who wasnât raised properly by your parents. My son was kind enough to play with you but you
dare to harm him. Iâm going to teach you a good lesson today. Tom, come here and give her a good
beating!â
âRemember what I taught you. People in our family donât have to be afraid of anything. If someone
dares to do something to you, just give them a good beating. With me around, even if something goes
wrong, our family can handle it. We wonât be bullied!â
Mila cried and struggled but she could not break free from Janetâs grip.
