In fact,when my mother was sent to the hospital that day,she was still alive.
Doctors have a benevolent hearts.They knew that I couldn't get in touch with Jack,and they also tried to rescue her,but without the medicine prepared by Jack,they eventually couldn't save my mother's life.
During the rescue,they tried to contact Jack.I was right there and heard his impatient voice on the phone,"I also have patients waiting for me to treat here.Don't disturb me!"
The patient he was talking about was naturally Lily,who had been drugged with an aphrodisiac.
The moment the phone was hung up,the doctor announced my mother's death.
Looking at my mother's cold body,my love for Jack turned into hatred.
Hearing my mother's name from someone else again,a sharp pain pierced through my heart,making me almost unable to stand.
Jack's phone fell to the ground,and he didn't even pick it up.
He walked towards me hastily and kept asking,"Impossible...Grace,tell me,are you colluding with them to deceive me?"
"Your mother's condition had already stabilized,so why did it still deteriorate..."
He stared at me intently,his eyes filled with desperate longing.
He wanted to prove from what I said that all of this was fake.
"Shut up!Jack,you don't deserve to call her mother!"
Meeting with my eyes full of hatred,he gradually became panicky,and his face lost its color.
He stood there numb,like a statue without a soul,not moving for a long time.
When he came to his senses,there was only endless pain in his eyes.
He walked towards me and said with difficulty,"Grace,why didn't you tell me?"
After saying that,he seemed to think of something,his face froze,and he quickly lowered his head,not daring to look at me anymore.
"I thought it was just to alleviate the effects of the drug.I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."
"Grace,I'm sorry."
He stretched out his hands,wanting to hug me,but I pushed him away.
I said in disgust,"Don't touch me.I think you're dirty!"
He wore a hurt expression."Grace,I really didn't do anything with Lily.Later,she lost consciousness,and I just carried her into the bathtub and let her soak in cold water."
I shook my head."Save these words for when you're dead and tell them to my mother."
"Now I just want a divorce."
Jack retorted,"I don't want to!"
Lily stood up,leaning against the wall,and frowned."Grace,how could you curse Jack to death?"
"It wasn't his fault that your mother died.It was clearly those doctors who were negligent with people's lives!In the end,you still want to blame him!"
Jack suddenly looked at her,and there was no warmth in his eyes anymore."Shut up.If it wasn't for you dragging me away,my mother wouldn't have died."
"You killed her,and now you're still blaming Grace.Lily,do I give you too much leeway?"
Jack's voice was icy-cold,no longer as gentle as before.
Lily's expression froze,and she didn't dare utter another word.
Jack stepped forward,attempting to grasp my hand, but I shoved him away.
During the scuffle,the ID card in my pocket,which was missing a corner,fell out.
Jack wanted to pick it up,but I picked it up first.
But he had already seen the face of my mother on the ID card.
The spark in his eyes vanished once more.
He fell to the ground,his eyes gradually turning red.The next second,tears streamed down his face.
"Mom,Mom,I'm sorry..."
Lily rushed over,but he pushed her away violently.
The look in his eyes as he glared at Lily was filled with loathing."Why are you still here?Get out!I don't want to see you!"
