chapter 14 If you can't speak, don't use your tongue.
Olivia Xia quickly walked forward and saw a middle-aged, obese woman throwing everything from Sofia Yue's hospital room outside. She was also trying to pull Sofia Yue off the hospital bed. Sofia Yue had finally started to recover a bit after Olivia Xia's return to the country, but the woman's words made her furious. She couldn't catch her breath and started coughing violently, her face turning red.
"What are you pretending for? Huh? If you're sick, spend money to get treated. If you don't have money, don't disturb others who are trying to get medical treatment. Get up," the woman scolded.
"Liu Madam, please calm down. This is a hospital; please don't use violence," a nurse said, restraining the agitated Liu Madam. She also tried to reason with Sofia Yue, "Ms. Xue, please contact your family to pay your bills. Our hospital is in a difficult situation, and there's a shortage of hospital rooms these days, making it difficult for many patients to get admitted..."
Sofia Yue didn't expect that Xia Qingyang, the unfaithful man, would really cut off her medical expenses, especially for three whole months. She was so angry that she couldn't stop coughing, couldn't speak, and had no strength to struggle.
Liu Madam, infuriated, reached for Sofia Yue's hair. "You're a worthless person who wastes the country's resources. Letting you occupy my hospital room. Get out!"
Olivia Xia didn't expect her mother to face such a disaster in the short time she left the room. She almost lost control, grabbed Liu Madam's hair, nearly breaking her hand, and when she saw her in pain, she let go and threw her outside, hitting the ground hard.
"Mom, are you okay?" Olivia Xia looked at her mother, who was rolling her eyes, her face turning pale. She quickly took out a silver needle and administered it to her.
Seeing Sofia Yue slowly regain consciousness, she breathed a sigh of relief, helped her mother lie down, and comforted her. "It's okay, Mom, I'm here. You'll be fine."
"Olivia..." Sofia Yue coughed again, her eyes red, and said, "He really dared to cut off my medical expenses..."
Olivia Xia's eyes also turned red with anger. "You still have me. I'll go pay your bills right now."
With that, Olivia Xia got up and handed a card to the nearby nurse. "From now on, all of my mother's medical expenses will be deducted from this card."
"Where did this little girl come from?" Liu Madam, who had climbed up from the ground, sneered as she looked at Olivia Xia. "You dare to hit me? Do you know who I am?"
"Leave, or I'll continue to hit you," Olivia Xia said, raising her chin and standing protectively by the hospital bed.
"You're quite audacious. Do you know how much your mother's medical expenses are? You dare to say you'll pay for a year upfront?" Liu Madam laughed.
Olivia Xia completely ignored her, turned to check her mother's pulse, and tried to calm her down, so she wouldn't be further agitated.
"Olivia Xia, do you still want to marry into the Si family? If you do, you'd better leave with your mother right now. Otherwise, don't think you can ever get married, not even to the Si family," Liu Madam warned menacingly.
"You can try," Olivia Xia retorted coldly.
"Oh, you think I'm powerless? Let me tell you, I'm Hao Xuan's aunt. With just a word from me, even if you marry into the Si family, your life won't be easy," Liu Madam threatened.
Is this person sent by the Si family to oppress her? Or is it arranged by the Xia family? Regardless of who it is, anyone who bullies her will pay the price.
Liu Madam realized that no matter what she said, Olivia Xia completely ignored her. Fuming with a bright red face, she growled, "Olivia Xia, I'll see how long you can keep up the act."
As she spoke, a commotion could be heard from outside. It turned out that Liu Madam had her injured daughter, whose leg was broken, brought in.
"Mom, why is that old woman still inside?" Chole Liu, seeing someone still in the hospital room, shouted in frustration. "I don't care, I must be admitted to the VIP ward today. I can't stand those poor people in the regular wards anymore, they're noisy and dirty, it disgusts me."
Olivia Xia resisted the urge to shut that person's mouth and gently patted Sofia Yue's hand, putting headphones on her. "Mom, listen to some music to calm down. I'll handle those noisy outsiders."
Sofia Yue worriedly held her hand. "Olivia Xia, please don't act impulsively."
"Don't worry, I'll handle it," Olivia Xia reassured her with confidence and a gentle smile.
"Hey, you, that odd-looking freak, it's you I'm talking to. Hurry up and take your sick ghost away; I want this ward," the young woman on the stretcher said, displaying a domineering attitude and not looking like an injured person at all. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Olivia Xia squinted her eyes and fixed her sharp gaze on Chole Liu. Then, in a quick step, she rushed forward, grabbing her by the throat. "If you can't speak like a decent person, you won't need this tongue anymore."
"You... cough, you... wretch, stop!" Chole Liu coughed, her face turning bright red.
Liu Madam rushed forward, trying to pry Olivia Xia's hand away. "Olivia Xia, what are you doing? Release my daughter! Help, someone, help! This madwoman is trying to kill someone!"
Olivia Xia raised her hand and simultaneously grasped Liu Madam's neck. "Shut up!"
Instantly, the surroundings fell silent. Olivia Xia's complexion improved slightly, and she said in a stern tone, "I'll say this one last time: this hospital room belongs to my mother. We can afford the bills. If you cause trouble again, I won't mind having you all stay in the hospital permanently."
As she finished speaking, the nurse who was collecting payment returned.
Gasping for breath, she handed the card to Olivia Xia. "Miss Xia, the payment..."
Before she could say the word "success," Liu Madam became agitated. "You shameless wench, I'll show you how crazy you can be. Who gave you the courage to act so arrogantly when you can't even afford it?"
Chole Liu regained her senses and joined the commotion. "You have no money, yet you're trying to take my hospital room. Do you know that this is robbery? Someone, drag that old woman out of there."
Chole Liu gave the order, and two bodyguards behind her tried to enter the room to pull people out, but Olivia Xia stopped them.
"Who dares to come in? Try it," Olivia Xia sneered, her sharp gaze piercing the Liu mother and daughter.
A crowd had gathered around, and they were all pointing and talking about the confrontation between Olivia Xia and the Liu family.
Suddenly, a magnetic and hoarse voice came from the back of the crowd.
"What's going on?"
Olivia Xia raised her gaze and saw the familiar face of that wicked man in the crowd. He was accompanied by several middle-aged men in white coats. When he spotted Olivia Xia, his brow
furrowed.
Wasn't he her new husband, Xavier Si?
"Director Zhao, you came at the right time," Liu Madam immediately spotted the middle-aged man beside Xavier Si and greeted him. "This room hasn't been paid for in three months, and my daughter has been waiting for a VIP room that never became available. Today, we had no choice but to ask them to leave. Who would have thought that not only did they refuse to leave, but they also resorted to violence against my daughter and me. How should we handle this matter?"
