Chapter 611

When she arrived at the hospital and mentioned Lillian’s name at the nurses’ station, what was initially considered a

hint of hope had now been confirmed as a fact.

Lillian was indeed seriously injured and had just come out of the emergency room. Now she was under observation

in the ICU ward. Only after passing through the critical period could she be transferred to an ordinary ward.

Rosalie felt as if everything in front of her was gradually becoming darker. When she came to the ICU ward, she

saw Stephen and Abigail standing in front of the glass window and crying while looking inside.

Rosalie hadn’t met Lillian’s parents for more than four

“Where’s Lillian? Lillian is…”

years. She thought that she would be in such a place when she

Rosalie’s legs were trembling. At this moment, she was even a little timid and dared not step forward to see what

Lillian looked like behind the glass window. She was afraid that if she saw her, she would be unable to bear it.

She took one step at a time.

It was a short distance, yet it felt so long.

When Rosalie finally reached the transparent glass window, Lillian lying on the hospital bed was the sight that

greeted her.

In an instant, Rosalie burst into tears.

Rosalie thought, ‘Is that Lillian? Is that her? The person on the bed is lying motionless with a tube in her nose and

thick gauze wrapped around her head. If not for the number on the instrument next to her that is still changing, I

would think that a dead person is lying on the bed.

What exactly happened?

Before leaving Strico, Lillian was so energetic when I talked to her on the phone. She also said that we would get

together and go shopping and have a meal when she came back.

Why did Callum disappear? Why was Lillian seriously injured? These things are like a mystery, and I have no

answers yet.”

“How is Lillian doing now?” Rosalie murmured.

Her voice immediately attracted the attention of Lillian’s parents. When they turned around and saw it was Rosalie,

they became angry again as if they had finally found a way to vent their anger.

Abigail snapped at Rosalie, “What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you on the phone to stop harassing us if you’re

still grateful to Lillian? Lillian had given up so much for you in the past. Now that she’s in this state, can’t you even

give us some peace of mind?”

“I-I just want to know what happened to Lillian. Is there anything I can do to help?” Rosalie choked out.

“Help? What can you do to help?” Abigail said angrily. “You’ve been to prison. You are not a doctor or a cop. What

can you do to help? Treat Lillian? Or find the killer who tried to hurt her?”

Rosalie clenched her teeth tightly. She couldn’t refute Abigail’s words.

Now she could do nothing but look at Lillian who was seriously injured.

Stephen was calmer than Abigail. He pulled his wife and said, “That’s enough. Stop talking about it. What’s the use

of you telling her this?”

Then Stephen said to Rosalie, “Lillian is not doing so well. As you can see, our family is in a mess now. We are

already in a bad mood. I hope you won’t show up in front of us again. Although we know that what happened to

Lillian has nothing to do with you this time, seeing you will only remind us of how much Lillian has given up for you.

We can’t help but have a grudge against you.”

“I-I understand,” Rosalie said. That was why she had never complained about Stephen and Abigail because no

parent is willing to see their child sacrifice their great future for a friend.

At this moment, a nurse came over and handed Stephen and Abigail a bill. “Your previous deposit has been

deducted and you still owe some money. Go and settle it quickly. After that, Lillian needs to have another two

operations. There are also the expenses of the ICU ward and follow-up expenses. You guys should be prepared to

spend a few hundred thousand

dollars.”

Stephen and Abigail felt their heads buzz when they heard that. Ordinary families like them couldn’t get so much

money.

“I-Is it really that expensive?” Stephen asked tremblingly.

“It depends. You have to ask the doctor about it, but a few hundred thousand dollars is just a minimum. Maybe

more money will be needed in later treatment,” the nurse said.

After the nurse left, Stephen and Abigail held the bill with a bitter look.

“What should we do about the money?” Abigail was at a loss. The two of them only had tens of thousands of dollars

left in their savings. If they wanted to save their daughter, it would be hard for them to make ends meet.

However, if they didn’t pay up, the hospital would only give her conservative treatment and stop providing her

medicines just to keep her breathing. There was no telling how long her life would last. Even if she could survive,

she would always be

like a dead person.

Stephen frowned. After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind and said, “If there’s no other way, then

let’s sell the house. Our house can still be sold for around 200 thousand dollars.”

“But… what if it isn’t enough? The nurse said that there’s no telling how long she’ll stay in the ICU ward, and there

are also rehabilitation expenses…”

“I don’t care about that much. My daughter’s life is important. If I run out of money later, then I will kneel and beg

for food to cure her, and… there’s still Callum. If Callum shows up in the future, he will definitely find a way to save

Lillian!” Stephen said.

“But Callum is missing now. No one knows what’s going on with him. Is he already…” Abigail sobbed and dared not

think about it anymore.

Rosalie was heartbroken when she heard these words.

“Sell the house? They only have one house. If they really sold it, what would happen to them?” she wondered. “Do

they have to rent a house for the rest of their lives? How will Lillian feel when she wakes up in the future and finds

that even her home is gone?”

“Mr. and Mrs. Quinn, I’ll find a way to raise money for Lillian’s medical expenses,” Rosalie said.

Stephen and Abigail wore looks of disbelief.

Abigail said, “What are you talking about? Raising money? Get lost! Don’t bother us anymore!”

Rosalie took a deep breath, then looked at her friend lying on the hospital bed.

“Lillian, you have to hold on. I’ll find a way to settle the medical bill. No matter what, I will keep you alive and make

sure you recover!” she muttered to herself.

Rosalie hurried out of the hospital. Now, the only person she could think of who could come up with such a large

sum of money at once was Calvin.
