CHAPTER 217: CHAPTER 217: INFURIATING HER OWN FATHER TO DEATH

Thinking of this, Summer Monroe looked at Coralie Hughes with a colder gaze, and beneath that icy surface was the intention to kill.

Is it true that Coralie Hughes wants her to be utterly disgraced?

She would make everything backfire onto Coralie Hughes herself!

But Summer Monroe hid her true emotions so well that others only thought Summer was feeling sorry for Coralie Hughes.

Summer Monroe patted the stunned Coralie Hughes on the shoulder and gently consoled her, "Coralie, don’t worry, I know a bit of emergency treatment. Let me try, maybe Uncle Hughes can still be saved."

Coralie Hughes was snapped out of her daze by Summer Monroe’s touch.

She shook off Summer Monroe’s hand with hatred and venomously cursed, "You wench! Get out of my house!"

Coralie Hughes’ attitude made the people around her completely change their view of her.

That young girl said she knew first aid and offered to save Evan Hughes, yet Coralie Hughes responded like this?

Does she want her father to live or to die?

It’s one thing for Clarissa Stanton to go crazy in the temple, but has Coralie Hughes gone mad too?

Does she want her father to die sooner so she can inherit the Hughes Family’s fortune sooner?

This is truly heartless!

Finally, it was Mrs. Chambers who couldn’t bear it, crying as she grabbed Coralie Hughes and said, "Young Miss, please come to your senses! Let this young lady try, maybe there’s still hope for Mr. Hughes?"

The people around couldn’t bear it either, echoing, "Yes, Miss Hughes, you’re being too much! You’re hurting your father!"

"If something really happens to your father today, you won’t be able to escape blame!"

"Right! There’s no harm in trying. Miss, please have a look and see if Mr. Hughes can still be saved!"

With everyone speaking out, Coralie Hughes couldn’t lift her head.

She was so furious her whole body trembled, just thinking of giving Summer Monroe a harsh slap.

But everyone looked at her like she was a madwoman, and she dared not make any rash moves, allowing everyone to escort Summer Monroe to Evan Hughes like a guest of honor.

Summer Monroe deeply understood that Evan Hughes was unaware of the plot to frame her, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so angered that he stopped breathing.

Therefore, her desire to save Evan Hughes was genuine.

The child’s mistakes shouldn’t be blamed on the innocent father.

Moreover, saving Evan Hughes would help her establish herself better in Crestfall.

She had already planned that her adoptive parents wanted to promote traditional Chinese medicine, but unfortunately, they were Westerners and couldn’t open a Chinese medicine hospital under that banner.

Once she cured Evan Hughes, she could help set up a Chinese medicine hospital in the country. After taking care of everything, she could then bring her adoptive parents over, and the family could be reunited.

But, can she really heal Evan Hughes?

Summer Monroe took Evan Hughes’ pulse and her expression grew grave.

The situation was worse than she had imagined.

Evan Hughes’ current collapse was due not only to external stimuli but also because he had a severe cardiovascular disease, which overburdened his heart.

The symptoms Evan Hughes was experiencing are what people commonly refer to as sudden death.

"Miss, may I ask how Mr. Hughes is doing?" Mrs. Chambers asked worriedly.

Summer Monroe shook her head, "The situation isn’t good. The environment here isn’t suitable. Please have someone help me move Mr. Hughes to the resting room. I need to perform acupuncture on him."

Sudden death, in Western medicine, typically requires major surgery, with a slim chance of successful recovery.
