Chapter 389: Chapter 389: Continuing to Feign Madness and Act Silly
At the same time, after Alitzel Williams and Christopher Lewis had both left the hospital, only Vivia Fuller and Henry Fuller remained.
Vivia’s vacant eyes gradually turned vicious, and she fiercely smashed the cup in her hand onto the ground.
The glass shattered instantly, emitting a piercing noise.
"Bitch! Thinking of sending me abroad, keep dreaming."
Henry stood by, looking at her with a detached expression, his eyes tinged with a hint of mockery.
"Keep it down when you go crazy. If someone hears you, all your efforts will have been in vain," Henry reminded her with a sneer.
"You’re just standing there, talking without feeling the pain. Why didn’t you help me when Hope Williams was targeting me just now?" Vivia aggressively questioned Henry.
"Not help you? What more could I do for you?" Henry’s eyes narrowed venomously, like a sinister and intimidating wolf.
Vivia let out a cold huff, not daring to continue blaming Henry, because she couldn’t. The entire Fuller Clan was now in his hands, even she relied on him.
"What’s the next step? I’ve come this far already; I refuse to just sit around and wait for doom." Vivia clenched the sheets tightly, her eyes fierce.
Henry chuckled, leisurely walking over to the window and stared out at the landscape darkly. After a moment, he said, "Keep playing the fool and leave the rest to me. Do what I tell you to do, don’t do what I tell you not to do."
"Do whatever you tell me? Am I your dog?" Vivia gnashed her teeth.
Henry laughed coldly, and when he turned his head to face Vivia, his smile was surprisingly gentle and refined, the kind that could easily lower a person’s guard.
But Vivia knew this man well; he was only truly frightening when he wore this expression.
He was a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
"Cousin Vivia, how could you be a dog? Don’t talk about yourself like that. You are not even as good as a dog right now."
Henry’s smile was gentle, his voice mild, yet it sounded utterly chilling.
Vivia shrank her neck.
"Cousin Vivia, do you know how a dog can win its master’s favor and live a life even more comfortable than humans do?"
Vivia clenched her molars tight, trembling continuously.
Henry bowed his head to look at her, his smile growing as he said, "By being obedient! Do you understand what I’m saying?"
Vivia shivered at the sight of this man. She knew, when he had the audacity to betray the old master and personally send the old master to prison, that he was no simple man.
Vivia pressed her lips together, nodding humbly.
She had no choice.
"I... understand."
Henry patted Vivia’s head. "Good girl, just keep playing the fool and cooperate with me. I’ll have my mother take care of you. You must take good care of yourself, cousin."
A hatred grew in Vivia’s heart, but she dared not avoid Henry’s touch, which was like petting a dog.
"What are you planning to do?"
Henry scoffed, "I don’t want to do anything; I’m just trying to help you."
Ha, Vivia trusted him about as far as she could throw him.
His ambition was no less than hers or the old master’s.
For now, she could only comply with him, nodding firmly, "I understand."
Henry smiled with satisfaction and then walked out.
It wasn’t until the door closed that Vivia relaxed, yet her hands clenched the sheets never let go.
The following day, Hope Williams returned to the hospital for work.
Her colleagues in the department were so excited about her return that they specifically stood at her office door to welcome her. The scene was a bit too much for the typically reserved Hope Williams.
"Welcome back, Director Williams."
"Welcome Director Williams."
"Director, you don’t know how much we’ve lost our drive without you. Some problems remained unsolved; now that you’re back, it’s fantastic."
"Director Williams, we heard you took leave because of pregnancy?"
Hope responded with a gentle smile and a nod, "Yes, I had some minor issues in the beginning, with an unstable pregnancy. The doctors recommended I rest more, so I took some time off at home."
"Are you feeling better now?"
"The baby is now stable, don’t worry."
"That’s great to hear, congratulations Director Williams."
"Yes, congratulations Director Williams. You’re not only a superb doctor but also the Young Madam of the Lewis Family, with both a son and daughter and a loving husband. Now you’re pregnant as well, truly a winner in life. We’re all so envious. If I had just one of the things you do, I would be so happy."
The recent issues with the Lewis Family had been all over the internet. Although misunderstandings had been cleared up, the news had spread in the hospital, making Hope Williams’ situation well known to everyone.
"I feel the same; first and foremost, congratulations, Director Williams."
Listening to the heartfelt congratulations from everyone, Hope’s smile deepened, "Thank you, everyone."
