Chapter 147

At a private hospital in Harborview City.

Ableson Lopez pushed open the door of the ward only to see Hubery lying in bed, face swollen, both legs bandaged up, receiving an IV drip.

On seeing Ableson, Hubery tried to sit up immediately.

“Stay down,” said Ableson, his face impassive.

Feeling awkward, Hubery lay back down and called out, “Mr. Lopez…”

The private ward was very plush. Ableson looked around before moving up to the bed.

Looking down at Hubery, he asked casually, “What’s with the recklessness?”

Hubery awkwardly explained, “Hedy didn’t want to get eliminate…”

Ableson frowned, “Hedy is just a little girl, a little sweet talk would do. You forgot the big picture for a girl? Is that your range of vision?”

Hubery choked up, unable to respond.

He knew that if he wanted to change his fate amidst his family’s decline, he had to marry Hedy.

Over the years, he had been nothing but courteous to Hedy and even more respectful to Ableson.

When Ableson reprimanded him, he didn’t dare to retort.

Seeing Hubery silent, Ableson became even angrier, “Didn’t I tell you to wait until Eileen turns twenty, no matter what?”

All Hubery could do was apologize, “Sir, I was wrong this time. I was too impulsive, but Eileen was really too much…”

“You should have endured it!” Ableson said sternly.

Hubery was taken aback and had to grit his teeth and say, “Yes.”

Previously, on the Traveller 5+1 show, Hubery was first kicked by Eileen, then pushed into a fountain. He was so mad he was about to blow his top, but while he was changing his clothes, he received a call from Ableson.

On the phone, Ableson told him not to provoke Eileen.
