Chapter 1223: You Made Me This Way



Declan turned away despondently, not looking back at her even once. The woman behind him laughed wildly and screamed harshly.

“Come back, Danny… You coward, can’t you face the truth?”

“Coward, I will never respect you in this life, let alone love you! Give up, hahaha!”

So who do I love?

When this question echoed in her mind, Natalia herself was confused. Locked up here for over twenty years, all she could do every day was either stare blankly or sleep. Even so, she rarely thought of her husband. His name had become increasingly faint in her memory. Now, she couldn’t remember the last time she thought of him. A year? Two years? Or ten years… It had been so long that she had forgotten.

At the hospital, after sending the little boy into the emergency room, Pearl sat with Sasha in front of the emergency room door, waiting. Her blood-stained appearance drew frequent glances from passersby. The two of them, one big and one small, stared intently at the emergency room door. Sasha was trembling with anxiety.

“Pearl, will the little brother be okay?”

Pearl turned her head and gently patted Sasha’s little head, comforting her softly.

“He will be fine, don’t worry.”

“Mm!”

The little girl looked up at Pearl and smiled, like a pure little angel warming hearts.

“Then you shouldn’t worry either. You look more nervous than me.”

“Ah? Really?”

Pearl hadn’t noticed that she had been clenching her fists and her legs were trembling since earlier.

“Alright, actually I’m also very scared… I hope he can get through this.”

Just as she finished speaking, the emergency room door opened. Pearl instinctively stood up, her eyes fixed on the approaching nurse.

“How is he?”

“The situation is not good. He has lost too much blood and urgently needs a transfusion.”

“But he has O-type Rh-null golden blood, and our hospital doesn’t have this type in stock.”

This blood type is even rarer than Rh-negative blood, with fewer than fifty cases worldwide.

“What’s worse is that golden blood can only receive transfusions from the same type. Finding even one match is difficult, let alone another one.”

The nurse had actually come to inform the patient’s family that they could give up on treatment. The little boy was holding on by sheer willpower; otherwise, given his blood loss, he would have already died.

The situation was urgent, and Pearl couldn’t hesitate any longer. She immediately rolled up her sleeve to reveal her fair arm and said:

“I have golden blood. Take me to donate.”

“What?!”

The nurse was completely incredulous. Such a rare blood type, and she encountered two cases in one day! This could be a highlight of her career.

Snapping back to reality, she quickly led Pearl to the operating room. But what about Sasha?

At that moment, a cool and magnetic voice came from behind.

“Leave her to me.”

Pearl turned around to see him. Their eyes met; Sam’s handsome face looked especially pale under the light, with a hint of hidden worry in his dark eyes.

“Thank you.”

After watching Pearl leave, Sam bent down and picked up Sasha, lightly tapping her nose with his cold fingertip.

“It’s only been a few days and you’re already as dirty as a little kitten.”

Sasha wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her head on his shoulder, sobbing softly like a wronged little kitten.

“Uncle Sam, I missed you.”

“Uncle Sam missed you too. Alright, stop crying… Let’s get you changed; being too dirty will get you disliked.”

Three days had passed. Expelled from school and having broken ties with Pearl at the hospital, Ruth had nowhere to go but back to the slums. As soon as she reached home, she saw a group of men with bare torsos and tattooed arms blocking the road menacingly. Her mother Louisa and stepfather Saul were surrounded by them; not far away, Ryan was tied up and pressed to the ground.

The bald man Ruth had seen before had one foot on the ground and the other on Ryan’s face, rubbing his cheek with his shoe tip. Clothes, shoes, and other personal items were scattered all over the ground, making the scene look chaotic.

“You brat! You still owe me 260, 000 dollars. Where do you think you’re running off to?”

Ryan screamed in pain and pleaded with Ibrahim:

“Ibrahim, you’ve got it wrong. I… I wouldn’t dare not repay your money. I was just trying to find a job to earn money to pay you back.”

Having spent years in casinos filled with all sorts of people, Ibrahim had seen it all. For someone like Ryan who was lazy and gluttonous, working to earn money was almost impossible.

Ibrahim laughed angrily.

“You think I’m an idiot? If I wait for you to earn money, I’ll be retired or dead by then.”

“Cut the crap. You said you’d repay the 260, 000 dollars in three days. Where’s the money?”

“If I don’t get my money today, I’ll chop off one of your hands. If I don’t get it tomorrow, I’ll chop off both hands!”

“When all your limbs are gone and you’re crawling like a worm on the ground, you’ll still owe me money. Don’t forget you have parents!”

Louisa and Saul were terrified by his words. They had no money left; even the 1, 250 dollars Ruth brought back had been taken by Ryan.

“Ryan, didn’t you say you only owed 6, 000 dollars? Why is it now 260, 000 dollars?”

“What are we supposed to do? Even if we sold our lives, we wouldn’t be worth that much.”

Louisa cried bitterly and continued: “And didn’t you swear you’d never gamble again?”

If she had known he couldn’t change his ways, she would never have believed him!Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Even now Ryan was shirking responsibility, yelling at Louisa:

“Shut up! I didn’t want to owe debts either; I wanted to win money!”

“I took that 1, 250 dollars hoping to win enough to cover the 6, 000 dollars so you wouldn’t have to suffer anymore.”

“I won 20, 000 dollars but then lost it all. When I owed 60, 000 dollars, I just wanted to win it back.”

But he kept losing more and more until it became an astronomical 260, 000 dollars with interest.

Thinking of Ibrahim’s debt collection methods made him too scared to stay here any longer. He had sneaked back today to pack his things and planned to flee to Chulae.

But Ibrahim had anticipated his return and sent two men to watch him from hiding. As soon as Ryan showed up, they caught him like a rat in a trap.

“I don’t care if you have money or not. If you don’t want to lose limbs, pay up now. Otherwise, today’s 260, 000 dollars will be 400, 000 dollars tomorrow!”

Ryan fearfully hid his hands behind him.
