Chapter 349 Leaving the Hospital
He probably got what he wanted.
Just as Draven was wondering if his mother would recognize him or forget him, the phone on the table rang.
It was from Mrs. Trevino.
He didn’t answer the phone in a hurry. It rang a few times and seemed to be urging him. Then he slowly raised his hand to answer the phone.
As soon as the call was connected, a woman’s angry voice was heard.
“Draven, do you know what you’re doing? You haven’t come back to the company for more than ten days. And you’re still involved with Aleah. Don’t you think it’s embarrassing? She’s already dead, but you still want to get something on her. Do you want to piss off Ernes, who was now in heaven?”
An irritable voice came from the receiver. Although the speaker was not turned on, Ryan, who was sitting next to him, could almost hear it clearly.
He raised his eyes in shock and looked at Draven with a complicated expression.
Draven’s expression was calm as he quietly listened to those words that caused one to frown.
Ryan didn’t quite understand.
Even if the person being interviewed today was really Draven, Mrs. Trevino shouldn’t have spoken. to him in such a tone.
She didn’t look like a mother at all. She was more like an enemy.
It was difficult for him to connect the woman on the phone with Mrs. Trevino in his memory. He couldn’t even remember how elegant she usually looked.
He suddenly understood why Draven needed psychological treatment.
He suddenly thought of Bruno at that moment.
In comparison, Bruno was still normal.
While he was deep in thought, he heard Draven’s indifferent voice, which was tinged with sarcasm.
“Wouldn’t it be better if I could make Ernest angry? Oh, but he is dead. If he could live, you wouldn’t feel that I can’t manage the Trevino Group well and that I embarrass you.”
His throat had not fully recovered yet, and his voice was slightly hoarse.
Combined with his tone at this time, it could be said that he was mocking his mother.
“Draven, you…”
Sue was clearly enraged, and she suddenly stopped cursing.
Then he heard a panicky voice coming from the phone.
It was probably because Sue fainted out of anger that Anna was frightened, so he heard the sound of exclamation on the phone.
Draven pursed his lips and listened for a few seconds before hanging up.
He had a headache.
In other words, he hated his mother.
However, since he was a child and was educated that he must respect and love his own mother.
Even if he really couldn’t like her, he still had a responsibility for her.
Therefore, when he heard the panic sounds on the phone, he was still a little worried.
But at the same time, he was also glad that he had burned his leg and been beaten up so badly that his chest hurt. He still couldn’t return to New York.
He didn’t have to go back, so he naturally didn’t have to face these responsibilities.
Escaping was relaxing for him.
At the same time, he was also escaping from Wanda, who was in the MRC Group.
The case of Roger had been announced by the police.
It was said that because he owed a lot of gambling debts in his hometown. He was chased by the usury group and had no choice but to come to Los Angeles to find Wanda.
He tried to use the media to kidnap and force Wanda to give him money, but he didn’t expect that it hurt himself instead.
At the same time, the police also took advantage of his case to launch a cross-border attack on criminal gangs such as fraud and gambling on the Internet and announced them together.
But unfortunately, there was no actual evidence to prove Roger’s crime of kidnapping and trafficking women.
It had been a long time, and no one knew who Wanda’s mother was or where she was now. Roger could not be convicted with just a few words and a post.
But the truth behind it could be inferred based on Roger’s character.
The law could not punish him, but morality would never let him feel good.
Under the police’s announcement, all of the people scolded him.
“The older the bad guy gets, the worse he becomes. Poor Wanda. Her reputation was almost ruined by such a scumbag, and she almost lost her job. How could there be such a disgusting person?”
“Does that man have a son? If he owes so much money, why doesn’t he go and seek help from his son? Besides, human traffickers deserve severe punishment!”
“He’s too stupid, and, naturally, we see a stupid, wicked old man. Fortunately, Mr. Trevino from the
MRC Group trusts Wanda. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to clear the slander for the rest of her life. Even if someone comes out to clarify for her, they will be scolded together.” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“You say he’s stupid, but he knows how to make use of public opinion. But there’s so much evidence left if you say he is not stupid. I really don’t know what the old man is thinking. It’s better for him to have a good relationship with his daughter. At least she can support him until he dies.”
“Hey, if this old bastard knew how to build a good relationship, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.
As for the media, I suspect that it is a competitor of the MRC Group. Didn’t you notice that some reporter has been targeting Mr. Trevino during the interview? I don’t believe that he’s not paid to do so. Also, how can a poor old man afford to hire so much media?”
There was a constant debate on the Internet.
From Aleah’s death to Draven’s dirty deeds, from Roger’s imprisonment to the MRC Group being framed, —-
The internet bustled with noise.
No one cared about it. The fire in the Cooking Contest in Los Angeles had been solved, and the arsonist had also been sentenced.
Cierra left the hospital.
After she left Draven, she went downstairs to the ward of the Chester family.
Old Mr. Chester had planned to leave the hospital today.
There was nothing wrong with him, and it couldn’t be because of the separation of the family. He
might as well stay in the hospital so that his children could calm down.
But obviously, he had settled in the hospital for long.
According to the news from Archer, the couple had already settled down in Clark’s, their son’s house.
It was either a villa or a high-class residential area in the city center.
It was not very big, but it was more than enough for a family of three to live in.
When Old Mr. Chester and his son made the video call, they smiled at each other a lot more. They gradually understood and felt that separating the family was right.
Even his grandson, Clark, whom he had never met before, would occasionally appear at home in the video.
It seemed that his parents had moved in, so he got off work early and went home.
As for the Chester family’s villa, there was no news.
When he was holding a video chat with his wife, he often heard her complain that the food was not to her liking.
Mr. Chester teased, “Don’t you always think that your daughter-in-law is incompetent? Now that she’s gone, aren’t you quieter?”
Mrs. Chester retorted, saying that it was the right thing to do to marry a daughter-in-law and make him do choices. What’s more, the Chester family was out of her league. She thought Cierra was not worthy of her Archer.
Ernest shook his head and said, “I didn’t ask you to cook when you were at the Chester family. Every time it’s me who cooked. In my opinion, it’s good to separate from the family. You like Belle. Isn’t it better to live with her?”
The old lady was speechless for a moment and did not know how to refute.
In the end, she could only act like a rogue and ask Old Mr. Chester to come back as soon as possible.
