Chapter 256
Love Is Fair
Chapter 256 She Made Her Sick Haileyâs anger came and went quickly. By the time Owen dropped her off at the entrance to the neighborhood, Hailey was almost calm, or at least seemed calm from her face.
Patrick, the assistant, had been waiting for Hailey with an umbrella at the entrance to the neighborhood for some time. When he saw the car arrive, he immediately went up and opened the door to shield Hailey from the scorching sun, and politely greeted Owen, âMr. Moore, thank you for bringing Ms. Newman back. â He didnât know the things that happened between Owen and Hailey before. He only knew that Owen was pursuing Hailey. He remembered that it was Owen who saved Hailey when Maya was about to kill her that day.
So, Patrick had a good feeling towards Mr. Moore and he was very friendly to Owen.
Owen said to Hailey, âHailey, call Doctor Ryan and Mr. Kirkland someday. Letâs have dinner together.â
âLetâs talk about it later.â
Hailey was very cool, closed the car door, and walked into the neighborhood with Patrick. Patrick walked behind Hailey and wondered. Although he hadnât been with Hailey for as long as Chris, he knew her temperament well enough. Hailey looked indifferent, but she was extremely polite to others. She never became arrogant or flattering because of the status and position of others. But to Mr. Moore, she was very different.
She was not only indifferent to him, but even impatient to him. This was rare to see.
Did she really hate him, or to attract his attention? Patrick, who had little experience in love, was confused and didnât dare to ask any more questions. He just laughed casually, saying, âMr. Moore is pretty good-
tempered, and itâs rare to see a rich man so righteous. Heâs a gentleman.â
Haileyâs hand on the phone slightly paused. She suddenly stopped and glanced at him, saying, âAre you blind?â
Patrick didnât know how to answer.
Hailey added, âIf you have a vision problem, go to the hospital and take a look at the eye. Donât let the eye problem affect your normal life.â
Patrick forced out a smile and did not dare to say anything more. Hailey did not move again, just holding the phone and sending a message back to Ava.
When they were about to arrive, a guy in black suddenly appeared. Patrick shouted, âMs. Newman, watch out!â
When Hailey looked up, Patrick had the person under control and asked, âWho are you?â
The person was dressed in a black dress, wearing a sun hat, sunglasses, and a mask that covered her entire body.
Yet Hailey still recognized her at once. She said, âEliza.â
However, Patrick was too late to hold back his strength. âCrunch!â With a sound, Elizaâs arm was dislocated. âAhâ¦â Eliza exclaimed, jumping up in pain. Her mask and sunglasses were removed, revealing a pale face with tears. She held her broken arm in pain, tears flowing, saying âItâs me, itâs me, my armâ¦â. There was a cafe next to the neighborhood, which had been booked by Eliza. The large cafe was empty, with no more customers except for them. After all, Eliza was now very well known, and many people recognized her when she walked down the street. She was able to experience the feeling of being a top star. However, when people met her, they did not praise her, but satirized her and cursed her. They wanted to throw rotten eggs and rubbish at her!
Eliza sat opposite Halley and moved the arm that was just put on. She still felt pain and glared at Patrick who was standing behind Hailey. She cursed in her heart, âHe treats women so rudely. What a foolish man!
I bet he will be a single man through all his life.â Patrick was very calm. He had been merciful to Eliza. If she wasnât a woman, it would be her neck rather than her arm that was broken.
Hailey knew the purpose of Elizaâs visit, but still asked, âMiss Brown, what do you want from me?â It was hard to keep calm when meeting rivals in love. In fact, Eliza was tempted to argue with Hailey.
However, now was not the right time. According to the current situation, she was at a disadvantage. So, she had to calm down, keep a low profile, and squeeze out a kind smile, asking, âCanât I invite you for coffee if we are free?â Hailey thought this was hilarious, asking, âAre we friends?â Elizaâs words sounded like they were good friends. Eliza continued to smile, saying, âOf course. We have lived under the same roof, after all, have you forgotten?â Hearing this, Haileyâs eyes were deep and she said, âI really forgot it if you didnât say so.â In fact, how could she forget? She just didnât want to recall it. But Eliza reininded her of it deliberately and let her pick up the bad memories.
Hailey was lost in thought. It was a starry night. Hailey had spent the afternoon in the kitchen making bone broth. She cared about Owen who was busy and wanted to provide him with something good for his health.
She sat in the living room watching TV, waiting for him to come back. She waited and waited, and was almost asleep when she was awakened by a sudden noise.
âIs Owie back?â
Hailey got up with a happy smile. However, she froze when seeing Owen bring back a woman. A woman dressed in a white dress and put on light makeup. She looked as gentle and beautiful as an angel. âYouâre Hailey, arenât you?â Eliza went up to hold Haileyâs arm and continued saying, âI just heard your name from Owen. Hailey is a nice name, and you are really pretty. However, Owen didnât tell me about your wedding Otherwise, I would have come back for your wedding even though I was busy abroad. What a pityâ¦â
Just after she finished, she couldnât help but cough twice. Owen came forward to hold her and carry her upstairs. Before going upstairs, he remembered something. He turned back to Hailey and informed her, âEliza is not feeling well and will be staying at home for some time. She will not bother you anything, and you do not need to be responsible for her food and living. I will do all the arrangements for her.
Feel free to do your work.â
This was the first time Hailey met Eliza. The second time they met was in Elizaâs room. Eliza said to her, smiling, as if she were not offensive, âIâve entered the house overtly. So, give him back to me.â
Whenever Hailey thought of this, she felt sick. However, Eliza kept coming out to disgust her. âOnly you and your aunt can be so proud of being a mistress. If you donât want me to throw this black coffee in your face, I advise you to say what you have to say quickly. If you bring me back to bad memories again, you canât afford the consequences.â
Haileyâs threat made Eliza nervous. She bit her lip and said, âMs. Newman, can you spare my aunt and me as well, please?â
