However, Ginb was no longer the same as before.

Liam could only reluctantly say, “Gina, I’m sorry for what happened before.”

Ella once again hinted at Liam with her eyes, indicating that his apology wasn’t strong enough. Liam gritted his teeth and went straight to his knees before Gina “lapologize to you, hoping you can calm down!” Then he bowed to her.

Gina, indeed, was impressed by his theatrics. Yet, there wasn’t the slightest ripple in her heart.

Liam remained kneeling, hoping that Gina would kindly ask him to rise, However, he knelt for what felt like an eternity without hearing those words from

her

Ella found it increasingly difficult to watch the scene unfold. However, she couldn’t afford to offend Gina. So, she cautiously suggested, “Gina, your brother has sincerely apologized. Would you like him to get up first?”

Gina chuckled and replied, “If he enjoys kneeling, let him be.”

Her words left them speechless; they hadn’t expected Gina’s heart to be so cold and unyielding sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

James realized even more that they might not be able to gain any benefit from Gina. However, the reason he came with Ella to see Gina wasn’t solely for an apology but for another purpose.

Gina explicitly requested, “If you truly want me to calm down, then stop disrupting the order and attracting attention at the entrance of my hospital. Leave, understood?”

James, unwilling to leave things unresolved, mustered up the courage to say to Gina, “Gina, I deeply regret my past actions, and I know I don’t deserve your forgiveness. Moreover, I’ve faced repercussions-I’m now confined to this wheelchair, a disabled man! Perhaps it’s divine justice for my past deeds. My car inexplicably malfunctioned, leading to the accident. It’s my punishment, and I deserve it!”

James explained that his car had a flat tire due to a nail on the road. After taking the tire to the repair shop, he had an accident. He suspected foul play by someone at the repair shop, but investigations found no evidence. The repair shop had surveillance footage showing only the tire being replaced, with no tampering. Despite his efforts, James couldn’t determine the cause of the brake failure. Ultimately, he had to accept his misfortune.

Having listened to James’s confession, Gina felt that he had a clear understanding of his guilt. Without any sympathy, she responded, “Yes, you got what you deserved. But what does that have to do with me? Are you trying to garner sympathy from me?” Unfortunately for him, she wasn’t buying it

James turned embarrassed and decided to cut to the chase. “I came here today because there’s something I want to ask of you.”

Ella looked at James in astonishment. What could James possibly be asking for? He hadn’t even discussed it with me before coming here! We hadn’t even given Gina a chance to change her impression of us, and now he was asking for her help with something, Wasn’t this making Gina’s impression of us worse, thinking we were after her money?’ Ella’s expression immediately turned sour as she thought,

Gina firmly declined, “What makes you think you have the right to trouble me?”

Despite the unpleasant taste of being refuted, James gritted his teeth and adopted a more composed tone as he addressed Gina, “Gina, I’m not asking for any favors. I hope you can secure a spot for me at Prover Hospital for treatment. If I don’t receive treatment there, my legs might never recover, and I don’t want to live as a disabled person. We’ll cover all the medical expenses, and I hope you can accommodate this request.”

The beds at Prover Hospital are typically fully booked year-round. Although many people vacated their beds when Gina was initially admitted to the detention center, the truth coming to light caused the beds to be reserved once again, Going through the formal application process is troublesome, and James doesn’t want to wait that long. While Gind was still in detention, James held onto a fantasy. If Gina agreed to transfer her assets to them to save her life, then Praver Hospital would essentially belong to the Miller family. This way, he could smoothly enter the hospital for treatment. However, his dream was shattered when Gina refused and was falsely accused. With no feasible arrangements from his family to admit him to Prover Hospital for

treatment, he had no choice but to reluctantly seek Gina’s help.

89%

James concluded with a moral plea, “Gina, I believe that as the successful director of such a prestigious private hospital, you must possess a compassionate heart. Can you please treat me as an ordinary patient? I know I’ve wronged you in the past, but my leg injuries need treatment, and that’s a separate matter. I trust you won’t show favoritism and let personal grievances cloud your judgment, right?”

“I run a hospital, not a charity. Why should I accommodate someone I barely know?” Gina said.

James decided not to give up. “I know you still harbor resentment, so, understandably, you won’t help. I can wait. I’ll keep waiting here.”

Understanding his intention, Gina decided to leave him be. It seemed he intended to stay put at the hospital entrance, like a piece of gum stuck to the ground, impossible to pry off no matter how hard one tried.

On the sidelines, Dylan couldn’t bear it anymore. “James, you’re an adult now. Can you please stop being so shameless? Are you planning to stay at our hospital entrance forever?”

“What’s it got to do with him?’ James thought, casting a glance at Dylan.

In the past, they often liked to mention in front of others that they had severed ties and Gina had no relationship with the Miller family anymore, but Gina was the one who gave them the agreement to cut ties and sign it. She might be even more ruthless than them when it comes to being ruthless!

Ella was momentarily at a loss. James was using moral pressure on Gina, which would surely upset her. However, Ella also wanted James to be able to heal his legs, and he had mentioned that they would cover the medical expenses as usual. They were merely asking Gina to help b y p a s s the application process, a simple favor that wouldn’t be too much to ask. Considering this, she found James’s request reasonable and decided to remain silent.

Gina said, “As long as you fulfill my request, I can arrange for you to be admitted for treatment immediately.”
