Chapter 59 – Divorced! Now What to Do?

However, back then, he was the one who hurt her the most. Bethan closed her eyes and sighed. She lifted her head.

“How long was I unconscious for?”

“Two days.”

“Did anyone visit me?”

“Yes,” the nurse replied as she switched the IV drip.

” A little boy and his godmother came to visit you.” Then, the nurse smiled at Bethan.

“The little boy is rather handsome. If I have a daughter, I ‘d want her to marry him when they’re older!

” Bethan chuckled gently.

“Was there anybody else?”

“Ah, there’s that little girl, too. She came together with her great-grandmother,” added the nurse while she inserted a needle into Bethan’s arteries.

Bethan furrowed her brows.

“What? A little girl and her great-grandmother?”

“Yes. The great – grandmother looked rather fierce, but she was very nice to the little girl, treating her as her precious baby.”

Bethan almost saw black. Other than Granny Morrison, who else could it be? That meant that Granny Morrison knew of Nellie’s existence already. Soon, the entire Morrison family would hear about it. By then, even if she fully executed her plans, it would be hard to take Nellie away. Just when Bethan was in despair, a little girl’s dissatisfied voice came from the corridors.

“Why did you have to split them up? I like Aunty and Daddy together. I want to see them both together at one time!

” Then, a doctor helplessly replied,

“Little Princess, there are rules here. The woman’s injuries aren’t that serious, so she has to be transferred.”

“Hmph!

” Nellie’s voice rang out along the corridors. Bethan sighed helplessly. From her voice, Nellie seemed to be fine. She had managed to save her daughter from the danger that day. It looked like she was a fine mother.

“Aunty!

” After a while, Nellie—who was in a white chiffon dress —came running in. She ran toward Bethan and stretched out her little arm to grab Bethan’s hand.

“Are you feeling better? I heard that you’re up! I came from Great-Granny’s!” Bethan furrowed her brows.

“Great-Granny…”

“She’s been staying at my house for the past couple of days,” Granny Morrison’s cold voice came from behind Nellie. She was still wearing the necklace that Cynthal gave her. Granny Morrison looked at Bethan coldly.

“You rescued Nellie, so the Morrison family has to thank you, but you’re in no condition to continue taking care of Nellie at this time. I’ll get the butler to tabulate your pay. Find another job after your discharge.”

“Great-Granny!”

Nellie bit her lip. She grabbed Bethan’s finger with her small hands.

“I’ve already said that I only want Aunty to take care of me! Great -Granny, if you’re going to be like that, I won’t like you anymore!

” Granny Morrison forcefully dimmed her aloofness and forced a smile.

“Nellie, l’ve already said it. You’re one of the masters. You can’t rely on a servant so much.” She then looked at the butler coldly.

“Take the little princess out to play. I want to speak to Ms. Bethan in private.” Nellie bit her lip. She knew that nothing good could come out of the conversation. She immediately hugged her thin arms around Bethan’s.

“No! I want to be with Aunty. Whoever breaks us up, I’ll hate them forever!

” Granny Morrison’s expressions got uglier at Nellie’s carefree words. Brettley had never gotten close with any women for the past few years. Granny Morrison had even thought she might not be able to see the day where four generations could be together. At that moment, a great -granddaughter suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Granny Morrison was so afraid to lose her, so she treated Nellie as her precious baby. Even though she would constantly give in to Nellie, she had her bottom line and her principles, too. Nellie relied on Bethan, a servant, more than she relied on family. This was unacceptable! Bethan had to be removed!

Moreover, Bethan not only got Nellie’s heart, but even Brettley also held her in high regard! At the fire a few days ago, Brettley had already seen that Nellie was safe, but at the very crucial moment, he still rushed into the fire to rescue Bethan. He even got into a fight with the people outside the fire!

This was the second time Granny Morrison had seen Brettley risk everything for this woman. The last woman who had this effect on Brettley was Bethan Peterson. After her death, Brettley holed himself in his room and drank excessively. He almost tortured himself to death! At that thought, Granny Morrison’s eyes turned even colder. Even if she loved Nellie, she still had to get rid of Bethan! At that thought, Granny Morrison looked at the butler behind her coldly.

“What are you still standing there for? Take Nellie away!

” Seeing how Nellie held onto Bethan tightly, the butler was a little conflicted.

“Ma’am, this is…”

“Nellie,” sighed Bethan sighed. She gently patted Nellie on the back.

“Listen to Great-Granny. Go.” Nellie hugged Bethan’s hands with tears streaming down her face.

“No, no, no! Great-Granny wants to get rid of you! I don’t want you to go!” Ever since Nellie came of age, she lived with her Mommy. She used to think that her Mommy was all- powerful. It was only until the past two days that Bethan was unconscious did Nellie start being afraid. She was afraid she would lose Bethan. She was afraid that Bethan would not be by her side. However, Granny Morrison was determined to get rid of her. Nellie cried so badly that she began to gasp for air.

“I don’t want to leave Aunty!

” Seeing her tears, Granny Morrison was a little heartbroken, but…her decision was firm when she saw Bethan. Such a seductive woman. She has to be removed!

“Butler!

” Being called upon a few times, the butler finally sighed, came over, and carried Nellie into his arms.

“It’ll be fine.” Seeing Nellie sobbing in the butler’s arms, Bethan was a little heartbroken. She gently comforted Nellie,

“Be good.” The door of the ward was shut with Nellie’s cries ringing in the air.
