CHAPTER 265: CHAPTER 265 I DON’T WANT TO OWE HUA HUA DASHAO’S FAVOR...

Did Valery hit Young Master Morris’s people?

What on earth happened?

While Valery is usually a bit willful, she always knows her limits. How could she possibly offend Young Master Morris and hit his people?...

Just as Benedict was pondering whether Valery could have possibly hit Young Master Morris’s woman, Malcom Moore’s cold voice sounded again, "Oh, by the way, Secretary Owens, there’s something I’d like to ask you."

Benedict opened his mouth in a daze, "Go ahead, Young Master Morris."

"Hmph!" Malcom let out a cold snort and then questioned, in a low, slow-paced yet extremely chilly voice, "Secretary Owens, is the police station in River City privately owned by the Owens family? Or is it that your family runs it specifically to abuse private law? To the point where they can let your family members act so audaciously, framing and ordering people to beat others at will?"

After speaking, giving Benedict no chance to respond, Malcom coldly continued, "Secretary Owens, I think you’ve been the secretary of River City for too long! Rest assured, I will discuss it with Adrian in a moment, and it’s time for a new secretary in River City. After all, a person like you cannot bring stability to River City and instead abuses authority for personal gain, indulging your daughter in doing evil at will!"

Benedict was shocked, and his attitude immediately weakened.

"Young Master Morris, I think there must be some misunderstanding here. How could Valery have..."

However, Malcom had no mood to listen to Benedict’s nonsense, and after saying what he wanted to say, he simply hung up the phone.

Listening to the busy tone from the phone, Benedict couldn’t sit still.

He immediately ordered his secretary to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Soon, the secretary investigated everything clearly and reported it in detail to Benedict.

Knowing everything, Benedict looked at Valery with hatred for iron not becoming steel.

If not for her current miserable state, he would definitely grab her up and give her a good lesson.

But now, he could only ask the family doctor to treat her with a heavy heart...

After hanging up the phone, Malcom stood up from the sofa.

He took the thermos of chicken soup, which had been simmered for two hours, from the servant and headed to the hospital.

At the hospital, Victoria had been watching over the injured Serena Sterling.

Serena had been in a deep sleep on the hospital bed all night and the entire day, only waking up from the slumber by the afternoon of the second day.

And Victoria had watched over the whole night and the entire day.

When Serena opened her eyes, she immediately saw Victoria, who had fallen asleep by the bedside.

Serena’s heart ached, and she gently touched Victoria, softly calling, "Mom."

Victoria was a light sleeper, and as soon as Serena moved, she woke up.

Seeing her daughter awake, Victoria’s eyes reddened again uncontrollably.

Since last night, after she came over, Luna had been in a coma.

She had asked the doctor, who said it was due to severe internal injuries, and that being unconscious was normal.

She had watched Luna the entire night, not daring to close her eyes, and couldn’t sleep at all.

Early this morning, Young Master Morris came to see Luna and thoughtfully brought her food, but she couldn’t eat, with her mind solely focused on Luna’s injuries.

It wasn’t until Young Master Morris called the doctor in and repeatedly assured her that Luna would be fine and that she’d wake up by the evening, that she felt slightly relieved...

Now, Luna really had woken up.

Victoria’s tears rolled down her cheeks, and she looked at Serena, speaking gently, "Luna, you’re awake?"

Serena nodded, "Mm."

She reached out to wipe away the tears at Victoria’s eye corner and asked with concern, "Mom, how did you fall asleep just sitting here? Have you been watching over me without resting?"

"Mom is fine," Victoria said softly, looking at Serena, who was still pale on the hospital bed, with kind eyes, "Luna, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Serena shook her head, a smile appearing on her pale face, "Mom, you don’t have to worry about me. I’m fine now, nothing’s wrong."

"Mm, that’s good. Mom won’t worry," despite her words, Victoria’s heart ached terribly.

Although their family was ordinary, Luna had always been the treasure she and Elder Sterling held in their hands, raised with great care, and had never suffered such grievances!

Now that Elder Sterling had just left, such a thing had happened to Luna.

Not only was she wronged, unclear of the reasons, and taken into the police station, but she also got injured and ended up in the hospital.

If Elder Sterling knew, he’d surely blame her for not protecting their daughter, right?...

Seeing her mother’s pained and guilty face, Serena smiled and promised, "Mom, I’m really okay."

She said, patting her chest a few times, "Mom, look, I’m just fine."

Victoria grabbed Serena’s hand and gently scolded, "You silly girl, even if you are fine, you shouldn’t hit yourself."

"Okay, since mom has spoken, how dare I hit your precious daughter again," Serena teased, then looked at Victoria, "Mom, you’ve been watching over me for so long that you’re exhausted. I’m fine now, so you should go rest."

"What are you saying? With you in the hospital, do you think mom can rest at home?" Victoria’s voice was gentle but firm, "Mom will watch over you here until you’re discharged."

Serena: "..."

She knew it would end up like this.

Seeing Serena’s helpless look, Victoria continued, "Luna, don’t worry about mom. This is the hospital’s VIP room. Mom can rest in the lounge next door."

Upon hearing this, Serena finally had the time to look around the room.

All the amenities in the room were evidently top-notch.

No need to mention, this had to be the handiwork of that playboy.

Serena sat up and looked at Victoria, "Mom, this type of room isn’t meant for ordinary people like us, and I don’t want to owe anything to that playboy..."

As she was speaking, the playboy she spoke of walked in.

"What don’t you want to owe the playboy?" Malcom raised an eyebrow playfully, looking at Serena and gently saying, "Figuring you’d be hungry when you wake up, I brought you chicken soup."

After speaking, Malcom looked at Victoria and politely greeted her, "Auntie."

Victoria smiled and looked at Malcom, sincerely thanking him, "Young Master Morris, thank you."

Malcom smiled, his gaze gentle as he looked at Serena on the bed, "Auntie, this is what I should do."

Then he turned to Victoria, "Auntie, I said there’s no need to be so formal, just call me Malcom."

He continued, "Auntie, now that I’m here, you should go and rest."
