Chapter 978: Milo Field Must Not Stay
The old madam swung her cane down again.The sound of the cane hitting Milo Field’s back was painful to hear, yet Milo remained unmoved, even Zoe Lewis and the doctor admired Milo’s endurance.
Fortunately, the other doctors and nurses had been cleared out beforehand, or else there would have been quite a commotion.
The cane struck Milo repeatedly, and his white sports shirt soon became stained with spots of blood.
Cherry Lewis felt heartbroken all of a sudden and quickly stopped the old madam: "Grandma, please stop hitting him! You’ll kill him at this rate!"
"Why should I stop? If it weren’t for him, how could you get yourself into such a situation?"
The old madam was about to continue when suddenly she heard Milo speak: "Unless you beat me to death, I will never give up on Cherry. As long as I have a breath left, I want to propose to her! If she doesn’t agree today, I’ll propose again tomorrow. If not tomorrow, then the day after. I’ll keep proposing until she says yes!"
His words were full of deep emotion and sadness, and had Zoe not known what kind of person Milo Field truly was, she might have been moved to tears.
In fact, she did start to cry, wiping her tears while whispering: "It’s so touching. Grandma, please don’t hit him anymore. Isn’t it good to have one more person love my sister? Do you want to push him into hating my sister? That would make my sister pitiful and innocent!"
Milo gave Zoe a grateful glance, and even Cherry’s look towards her softened.
"Grandma, Little Zoe is right. Do you want to force me into having one more enemy? Let me handle things between him and me. I’m not a child anymore."
Cherry’s tone was filled with grievance and dissatisfaction, a dog should never be hit publicly. The old madam, even if out of consideration for Cherry’s sake, shouldn’t humiliate Milo Field in front of others.
"Fine, you handle it yourself! I’ll give you three days, you must settle this matter cleanly for me. I don’t want to hear any news about you being pregnant!"
The old madam stormed off angrily, furious that her granddaughter dared to defy and resent her for the sake of a wayward man!
She finally understood Old Madam Hunter’s frustration and felt the same exasperation. No wonder Old Madam Hunter was furious with Harry Hunter every day, always trying to split up Harry and Isabella.
If Cherry and Milo got together, it would drive her mad!
Milo Field must not be allowed to stay!
However, no one cared about the old madam’s mood.
Cherry saw that the blood on Milo’s back was seeping more and more, his back already a bright red, and urgently asked the doctor to help him.
A few of them went into the doctor’s office, where Milo stripped off his shirt, revealing his back, swollen and unrecognizable.
Cherry began to cry in heartache: "What happened to Grandma? Why did she hit so hard? Milo, does it hurt? How can you be so silly, why didn’t you dodge when she hit you?"
Pale-faced, Milo gently held her hand: "I don’t feel pain. Grandma is not satisfied with me, it’s okay for her to vent her anger a little. As long as I can be with you, I don’t care about anything else."
Zoe felt a pang in her teeth as she listened, and once the doctor finished treating Milo’s back, she sensibly followed the doctor outside, leaving the office for the two of them.
"Doctor Chapman, please wait a moment."
The doctor turned back and asked very politely, "Is there something second miss needs?"
The situation at the Lewis Family has changed dramatically. Since Ryder Lewis passed away, Evan Lewis has begun to emerge, gradually taking control of the Lewis Clan Group. As his daughter, Zoe’s status has risen accordingly.
