The Heiress Strikes Back

438 Treating the Burns

“I... Don’t mind me just now.” Sharon’s voice was gentle like a stream flowing past Hayley’s ear. Looking at her, Sharon actually felt like crying.

“It’s nothing. My family advised me the same way, but I really couldn’t help it. I don’t know what to do now that I’ve become like this.”

“Do you want to rest? I think you seem to be in pain.”

Hayley shook her head. “I’ve been staying here since I was burned. Apart from resting, I can’t do anything else.”

Sharon looked at the other party’s helpless gaze and felt terrible. She was also a doctor, but she didn’t know what she could do for Hayley.

“Actually, I really want to go out too, but if someone takes a photo of me, the media will definitely publicize it. At that time, I might really not have the courage to live.”

Worried about the media? Sharon looked at Hayley. “You are in?”

Hayley smiled. “You probably don’t know me. I’m from Washington. My family was worried that the incident would affect the stock price, so they sent me to New York.”

She said it very casually, but Sharon could hear the helplessness in her tone.

“Bang-” Sharon was shocked by the barbaric way the door was opened. Who exactly opened the door with such force?

“Yo, I didn’t expect someone like you to have someone to talk to. Hey, aren’t you afraid of looking at her face? If I take a look, I’ll have nightmares for a few nights. It’s so disgusting.”

Originally, after crying for a while and chatting with Sharon, the sadness in Hayley’s heart had been vented a little. She didn’t expect the woman who came in to mock her.

Sharon looked at the man and woman who came in and didn’t know what to say.

“What are you doing here?” Hayley’s voice suddenly became low.

“Hayley... You know why I’m here. Actually, I don’t want to make things difficult for you, but the marriage between our families has been decided. Now that you’ve become like this...” The man’s name was Jonas, Hayley’s fiancé.

“Why are you wasting your breath on an ugly girl like her?” Holland held Jonas’s arm intimately and spoke as if she was declaring her sovereignty.

“Cancel the engagement with Brother Jonas immediately and transfer the shares in your hands to me as a wedding gift. It’s not that I want to criticize you, but you’re representing the Heath family now. Your parents are no longer around, so there’s no need for you to hold on, right?”

“You, the two of you...” Hayley was in disbelief. “You said that you only love me. No matter what I become, you won’t abandon me!” Hayley wanted to stand up, but her body had yet to recover. Her agitated emotions caused her body to look as if it was on the verge of collapse. Sharon quickly went forward to support her.

“To tell you the truth, the two of us have been together for a long time, ever since you came back from a business trip in Finland. If not for your shares, Brother Jonas would have been with you and me long ago. Not only that, during the time you were burned, I got pregnant.”

Holland looked at Hayley arrogantly, then looked up at Sharon. “Hey! Are you her friend? Hurry up and persuade her to hand over the shares! She should stop struggling. If I’m in a good mood, I can find a sanatorium for her to live the rest of her life in. If she makes me unhappy, there won’t be a place for her in the Heath family in the future.”

“That’s right, Hayley. Just hand over the shares to me and cancel the engagement with me. For the Heath family’s hundred years of foundation, you can’t be so selfish, right?” Jonas also tried persuading her, but he didn’t dare to look up at Hayley’s face.

“Jonas, look up at me. This is the first time you’ve come to see me since I was injured.” Hayley still could not believe that the man she believed so much would do this to her. There was a hint of longing in her voice. “Didn’t you say that my body and my face are very good-looking?”

“But you’re disfigured now and there are burns on your body. The doctor also said that the area of your burns is 30%, and the wounds are very deep. It’s very difficult to recover.” Jonas’ words were like a sharp blade that stabbed Hayley ruthlessly. Her face instantly turned pale and she was speechless.

“Enough!” Sharon looked at the couple who had gotten their way and felt an indescribable disgust. She stood in front of Hayley.

“Get out! You’re not welcome here! I’m thinking of a way to treat the burns on this lady’s body. She will look as good as before, when the time comes, just remember not to beg her.”
