Chapter 64: She Feels
Chapter 64: She Feels
Sweet down in Her Heart Despite panic and anger in her heart, Selma looked calm.
"Madam, you misunderstood me."
She pretended to look pitiful and innocent.
Unfortunately, no one would believe her anymore.
Julia slowly closed her eyes and said earnestly, "That's all I want to say.Selma, think about it"
Before Selma could explain, Julia had hung up.
Selma threw her phone aside in a fit of rage.
She quickly took a cold shower and put on a miserable look.
An hour later, she got a fever.
She called Old Mrs.Howard, hoping that she would come to see her.Old Mrs.Howard did come.She didn't hate Selma.
After all, she had raised her for so long.Selma's cheeks were burning, and her lips were so dry that cracks appeared.
"Selma, why bother?" Julia sat down sadly and reached out to poke Selma's forehead.
"I'm sorry.I didn't mean to break the engagement between Amy and Paul.I just..." Selma choked and trembled.
Julia was astonished.She thought she understood Selma and had said more than what she had intended.
"Tell me your difficulties.I'm a reasonable person."
Selma bit her lip and she finally spoke, "I just hate Amy.She and I were roommates.She was very close to the principal.I hope you will keep it a secret.I once saw them being together under the dim light.And I'm not sure whether that woman was her.Later, she won a lot of awards.I think there might be a deal behind it."
Old Mrs.Howard subconsciously felt that Amy definitely hooked up with the principal because of her prejudice against her! Even if Amy could prove her own innocence, she wouldn't be to blame.
After all, she said that the light was very dim, and that she was uncertain.Julia's eyes were bloodshot.
"She's starting to cook to please Paul! Humph, Amy is the best at fawning.She had no bottom line.I have to kick her off!" Julia got more furious when thinking about it.
She knew that Selma didn't like to make enemies, so it was Amy's fault.
"Selma, this is our Howard Family's business.Don't get involved next time.Take care of yourself.I'll find you a suitable kidney as soon as possible"
After Julia left, Selma gave an evil smile.Rumors had wings.Even if Amy wanted to defend herself, she had no evidence.
Besides, everyone in the Imperial City University knew that she and the principal were on good terms.
As long as Old Mrs.Howard had someone to ask the students there, Amy would be ruined.
Amy had thought that after Old Mrs.Howard left the Shallow Bay, she would enjoy peace for a few days.
But the next day, Old Mrs.Howard came to her house again.
Tomorrow, Grandma would undergo surgery.She had to go over and follow up, but Julia was aggressive.
"Mrs.Howard." She called out politely.
She didn't go out now because Old Mrs.Howard had come.
"What's the relationship between you and your principal?"
She had asked someone in Amy's alumni group to find out that Amy and her principal were on good terms.
Thinking of what Selma said, she only felt disgusted! Amy was shocked and did not think much for the time being.
"He appreciates me very much."
She won countless awards every year, and the school leaders knew her.
The principal appreciated her so much that he took her out to participate in the competition.
"Appreciate? Did he appreciate your body? I got your information.You're from a poor family.How could you enter the Grand Group? How could others believe you? Your ex is from a rich family.You got a lot of resources from him.Then you hooked up with the principal and asked him to recommend you to join the Grand Group.Now you plan to hook up with my grandson.You are so calculating."
Before Julia said these, Amy had always respected her.
She was a junior in the Howard Family and shouldn't be too fussy with seniors.
She had always been sensible, calm and rational, but when she heard her slandered the principal, she could bottle back her anger.
The principal had been diligent all his life.
He has fallen ill many times because of school affairs.
He was not 60 years old yet, but he was suffering a lot of diseases.
Imperial City University was not corrupted, and all the financial aid was given to the students who needed help the most.How could she slander such a righteous person? She was so unreasonable!
"You are stingy.How could you believe everything others said? You smeared a good leader who is considerate to all his students.I heard that you were talented when you were young.You were the lady from a rich family.In order to get Nicholas's love, you learned poetry and songs.But you don't know that if a man loves you, you don't need to change yourself.If he doesn't love you, he won't fall in love with you, no matter how talented you are.I think Nicholas didn't like you, so you had no way." Julia did not expect Amy to humiliate her like this.
She slapped Amy in anger.
The loud sound shocked the servants in the villa.
They quickly contacted Paul, hoping that he would come back to meditate.
Amy covered her face, which was numb from the pain.
She had figured out that Old Mrs.Howard hated her no matter what she did.
Old Mrs.Howard would always hate her as she was from a poor family.
So she no longer had to put up with her politely, and she would not respect her after the slap.
"Now you had vented your anger.I should go to the hospital to see grandma." Julia's hands trembled, and she could not say a word.
The hand that hit her was trembling and hurt.
Amy walked past her and went out without looking back.She didn't drive.She was in a bad mood, even though she looked calm.
Whoever is in a bad mood should not drive, as it was likely to have an accident.She cherished her life.
After getting into the taxi, she took a deep breath and did not care about her swelling red cheeks.
She leaned back and calmed down.
When she arrived at the hospital, she paid and went to grandma's ward right away.
Several doctors were standing there, analyzing the situation.
When they saw her, they all stopped.
"Hi, Amy”
Everyone saw the swelling on her face, but no one asked why.After all, everyone had some secrets.
"Her condition has stabilized.She could have the operation.If she can go through the three days after the operation, she will be fine.’’ Amy heaved a sigh of relief and felt that her face didn't hurt as before.
After the doctor left, her phone rang.Paul called her.
"Where are you?"
Paul had got home, but he did not see her.He heard that she had been slapped by her grandmother, but he did not know if it was serious or not.
"I'm In the hospital."
As soon as Amy finished speaking, Paul hung up the phone.
Twenty minutes later, Paul arrived there.
Seeing him, she immediately turned her swollen face because she didn't want him to see it.
"Let me see it" Paul frowned and looked down seriously.
"It's swollen.’ Amy looked away because he suddenly approached her, and she couldn't get used to it.
"Yes." She liked his comforting smell.
Paul pinched her chin.
She could move, so she could just look at him.
"It's nothing serious.Don't look at me anymore."
She was embarrassed to be slapped by Old Mrs.Howard.
Paul let go of his hand, took out two boiled eggs from the pocket of his suit, and peeled them seriously.
Amy was shocked.
A man in a custom-made high-end suit peeled eggs for her.
She pulled a wry face when she thought that he was the president of the Grand Group.
"Did you come here from home?" Paul nodded silently.
"We're in the hospital now.I can apply the medicine"
Amy was awkward and couldn't believe this scene. After finishing peeling the egg, Paul rolled it on her cheek.
"I heard that it works very well"
Amy flushed, and she didn't dare to look at his face.
"You don't have to do this."
She retorted gently but felt pleased down in her heart.
Paul did not answer.
He just gently rubbed the egg against her face. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Amy took it.
"I'll do it myself"
He let go and began to peel the other one, with his eyelashes casting a thick shadow.
"How's your grandmother?"
"Not bad.The doctor said she could have the operation tomorrow.’ As they spoke, a nurse rushed over.
"Amy, your grandma has woken up."
Amy stood up immediately and walked into the ward of her grandma.
