Chapter 118 - 118 118 Not Being a Light Bulb
?Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Not Being a Light Bulb Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Not Being a Light Bulb After the matter was settled, William Griffith exchanged pleasantries with the dean, then returned to the ward to see Cherish Turner.
Sam Turner was asleep now. Cherish stood up, looked at William, and softly said, “Thank you.”
“Silly, for things like this in the future, call me right away, understand?” He didn’t want her to deal with these things all by herself.
“I thought it was no big deal, so I didn’t want to bother you.”
“As it turns out, if your brother’s problem was neglected any longer, he might have lost the use of his leg. You can’t always just judge things by their appearance.” He lectured Cherish sternly, and she nodded like an obedient pupil.
Hailey Griffith couldn’t bear to watch. “Brother, don’t blame Sister-in-law. I caused all this, and I’ll take responsibility for Sam’s recovery from now on.”
Hailey was a straightforward person. She knew she had gone too far when she saw how severe Sam’s condition was.
She wasn’t the type to dodge responsibility.
“Do you think Mom and Dad will let you off the hook for hurting someone like that?”
This girl’s wild character was really getting out of hand. It was just like her to cause trouble all the time!
“Brother, no one else knows about this if you and Sister-in-law don’t say anything. Please let me off this time. I did say I’d take responsibility, didn’t I?”
William’s attitude was still firm with no room for negotiation. So Hailey turned to beg Cherish, knowing her brother would definitely listen to his sister-in-law!
“Sister-in-law, can you please talk to my brother for me? I didn’t know Sam was your brother, or I would have gone easy on him. I didn’t expect him to be so fragile that I’d hurt his bones with one kick…”
“How dare you even say that!” William scolded.
“Sister-in-law…” Hailey clasped her hands together and begged earnestly.
“Alright, it’s not that serious. Sam is tough, and he’ll be fine after some rest. Don’t be so fierce. Hailey is a girl, and she knows her mistake. I won’t hold it against her. As Sam’s sister, I won’t pursue this matter.”
Cherish walked up to William, cautiously tugging at his clothes. He couldn’t help but feel tickled by the sight.
“Don’t forget, it’s for Cherish’s sake that I’m letting you off today. Otherwise…” William didn’t finish his sentence, and Hailey quickly clung onto Cherish.
“Sister-in-law, you’re so kind. Hurry and marry my brother so you can cover for me, then he won’t bully me anymore, hehe…”
Cherish stopped and chuckled awkwardly. Luckily Sam was asleep, or he would have definitely demanded an explanation!
“Well, well, I’ll stay here with him. You two can go out and chat or sit for a while. Patients need rest, and it’s not good to have too many people around.” Hailey was sharp; since her brother forgave her, she naturally had to repay the favor by helping the couple spend some alone time.
So William and Cherish were driven out of the VIP ward like that.
Cherish and William stood in the hallway, feeling awkward and unsure what to say. William led Cherish downstairs, thinking of buying some restorative food in case Sam woke up hungry. But as they arrived in the lobby, they saw a familiar figure.
