Chapter 247 You Won't Feel Sad Because She Is Not Your Daughter
"Yes, yes, I didn't push her." Zoe nodded heavily, but she still was scared.
"Doris is not awake. Your brother doesn't know anything yet." Lina put her phone down and looked at Zoe. "Even if she wakes up and says something, you just don't admit it. I'll help you if I can, Zoe. But you have to keep calm, or we will suffer."
"I'll be leaving you if that happens, Zoe, and don't blame me for doing that."
"I know, Lina. I'll do what you say." Zoe clenched her hands. "So can we go back tomorrow?"
So if Bright heard anything from Doris, at least she was back in City J with her parents around her. That would be better than to be alone in City H being scolded by her brother.
"And I proposed to visit Doris." Lina propped her chin on one hand.
"Go to... to see Doris?" Zoe was terrified. "Lina, Doris would point us out when we go to the hospital. Bright will listen to him and we are doomed. I'm not going to visit her."
"You are wrong." Lina smiled secretly, "If we dare to go to the hospital, it means we are not guilty. Even if Doris points us out, there is no proof. With me here, your brother won't do anything to you. What's more, Mr. Francis and Hallie will protect you. You are the eldest daughter of the Lee family. How could you not be as confident as Brother Bright?"
Zoe lowered her eyes and looked lost, "Lina, you know I am not related with them by blood. I'm just a stepdaughter. People all me "Lady" just for the sake of the Lee family and my father, otherwise I am nobody."
Her eyes were wet and sad. If she could, she would really like to be related to Bright.
She couldn't love him aboveboard, but at least she could be his real relative, and could give him the real love.
Lina reached for her hand, saying apologetically, "Zoe, I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. I just wish you to be strong."
"I see. I don't blame you. It's really my fault." Zoe looked at Lina. "How good it would be if I could be as calm and collected as you are."
"It doesn't matter. I shouldn't force you. You are still young, after all." Lina decided not to force her, "Rest assured, you have me, and I will not let anyone hurt you."
"Lina, you've been so good to me. You are like my sister. Thank you." Zoe smiled at her.
"You are welcome, I am on your side." Lina reached out to hug Zoe.
Zoe rested her head on her shoulder, feeling secure and safe.
"How good it will be if my brother had married you." Zoe sighed.
"Don't be discouraged. I will wait until Brother Bright knows I have been waiting for him." Lina was confident. "I'm sure he'll understand that the woman isn't right for him. And I'm the one he should be with."
"Lina, I'm with you and stand by you all the time." In Zoe's eyes, Lina was indeed an excellent woman who could help Bright in both life and career.
If Bright married Lina, she could give up, but Bright married Rose, who had a daughter, she couldn't accept it.
Bright at the hospital saw it was off work now. He had to tell Rose so she wouldn't pick Doris up at the kindergarten.
Besides, she was Doris's mother and had the right to know that her daughter was injured and hospitalized.
Bright dialed Rose's number and said, "I took Doris away."
Rose pinched her phone and said in a distant tone, "What did you want to do? Why did you take Doris away this time?"
"Do you have time to come to the people's hospital? We are in Room 601, the first inpatient department." Bright just told her where he was now.
Rose's heart suddenly tightened. "What's wrong?"
"Doris was injured." Bright could only tell the truth. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
"How did she get hurt?" Rose asked him.
"It's a long story. Come to the hospital, please." Bright added, "Be careful on the road."
Rose said she would be right back and hung up the phone. Bright looked at Doris and prayed in his heart that she would wake up soon.
Soon, Rose arrived at Room 601. She pushed open the door and walked to Bright.
She took one look at Doris lying lifeless in the hospital bed and asked him, "Why did Doris get hurt?"
"It's my fault, Rose. It's my fault for not taking good care of her." Bright stood up, blaming himself.
Rose's eyes turned red. "She was doing well in school. Why did you take her away? Since you can't take care of her, why did you take her away!"
"I'm sorry." Bright had never apologized to anyone, but now he lowered his noble head.
And this was Rose, his wife, the woman he loved, the mother of his daughter, so he was not ashamed, and even thought that apology was not enough.
"Does apology help? Could time travel back and you could let Doris avoid hurt?" Rose's nose was sore and there was a lump in her throat. She said in a choked voice, "You know the saying if it wasn't your child, you won't be sad. Just because Doris is not your daughter, you won't care about her!"
"Who said she is not my daughter?" Bright replied, wringing his long eyebrows, which made Rose surprised.
He bit his thin lips and then said, "I always treat Doris like my own daughter. It kills me when I see her being hurt. Don't you think your words are too sharp?"
"Bright, I know you have grudges against me, but you can vent your anger at me. Why do you hurt Doris? She's so young; how can you bear to do that?" Rose bit her lip and kept staring at him with red eyes. "I don't accept your apologies!"
"Calm down, Rose. I know it kills you too, but I'm no better than you. How I wish the one who gets hurt was me, not her!" Bright looked at Rose, who was trying to hold back her tears, and felt more painful in his heart.
"The doctor said Doris is out of danger. She would wake up. We will watch her together until she wakes up."
Rose was terrified at the thought of little Doris lying wounded. She could not calm down, and was even agitated. She asked him sharply, "It would be fine? You don't know how hard it is! Bright, I don't want to see you. Please go out right now!"
"Rose..." Bright reached for her shoulder to soothe her, but he didn't expect Rose to do this...
