Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 1731

As it was the peak hours, the white Porsche moved on and stopped intermittently along the way.

Dylan was driving the car and looking ahead. He seemed to have not rested well all night. In addition to the dark circles around his eyes, there were a lot of thin blood streaks on his eyes.

Tina clutched her seat belt with both hands.

At such a critical moment, it was inappropriate for her to draw a clear distinction between Dylan and her.

She frowned and asked, "Is the situation very bad?"

In fact, the answer was obvious.

Dylan had told her that his father was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer. It was a terminal disease, which virtually meant that Aspry had been sentenced to death.

Throughout every human being's life, the major events which couldn't be controlled were birth, aging, illness, and death. Illness was particularly difficult to predict. Took Isla as an example. Although she was still in the sterile room, she would probably be able to return to the normal track of life after she was discharged from the hospital. Tina had accompanied her daughter to go through this difficult phase of their lives. She had personally experienced the battle with the disease.

"Yes!" Dylan nodded.

Tina's heart sank.

About an hour later, the two of them finally arrived at a first-class hospital.

After parking the car, Tina and Dylan ran into the building.

Coming out of the elevator, Tina saw that the ICU center was ahead, while Lilith was sitting on a chair in the corridor. She propped up her forehead with her hands, and the messy hair was hanging down her shoulders. Her face, which looked mean and unfriendly in the past, had become dispirited and haggard now.

Hearing the footsteps, she looked up at Tina.

When As pry woke up in the ICU, he told his wife and son that he wanted to see Tina. For this reason, Tina's appearance didn't surprise Lilith. Although Lilith was obviously unhappy to see Tina here, she still didn't say anything. She simply looked away.

Dylan asked, "Mom, how is Dad?"

Lilith shook her head. "He is still in a coma. The doctor said that he hasn't passed the dangerous period yet!"

Although Lilith didn't like Tina, but it was her husband's wish to see his adopted daughter. Lilith stood up and went outside for a walk.

Tina didn't pay attention to Lilith. She went straight to the ICU center.

The ICU room was isolated with thick glass walls. Inside the room, there were medical apparatus everywhere. Aspry was lying on the bed in the middle of the room. He was wearing an oxygen mask, while there were a great number of tubes on his body. His face was pale, and he looked very weak, as if he had aged several years.

Tina looked at the old man who used to be her adoptive father, while tears welled up in her eyes.

She asked very sadly, "Did uncle pass out last night?"

"Uh-huh." Dylan nodded. His voice was feeble and husky, "Last night, I went back home after the concert was over. Then, I quarrelled with my Mom and mentioned what had happened to you five years ago. I hadn't expected that Dad would overhear what we said..."

After the concert ended last night, it was very late. Dylan went back home and saw that Lilith still hadn't gone to the bed.

Lilith had been trying to make things difficult for Dylan and Tina. At first, she exposed the secret of Isla's identity. After that, she tried her best to persuade Dylan to reunite with Selene. When she realized that what she had done didn't work, Lilith introduced a number of young ladies coming from rich and powerful families to Dylan.

After Dylan coming back home, Lilith began nagging him again.

Dylan was annoyed, and he made it very clear to Lilith.

He only wanted Tina.

Lilith was also very angry. She couldn't understand why her son had been so addicted to Tina all the time. "Dylan, how many times I have told you, Tina is a little vamp! Why don't you forget all about her? Her social status and background were very mediocre. You have so many young ladies to choose from. Why? Tina is no longer a virgin. She had slept with a great many men... What's worse, she had a daughter, a bastard!"

Dylan was annoyed even more by the last few words of his mother.

He didn't understand why. It was obviously his mother's fault, but she didn't feel ashamed of what she had done to Tina five years ago. She acted as if it was justified for her to do so.

Dylan roared, "Shut up! It's enough! You have ruined your image as my Mom. You did such a vicious thing to Tina. Aren't you ashamed of it? What's the difference between you and an evil witch? If you hadn't drugged Tina five years ago, how would she have ended up like that? Don't you know how to reflect upon the mistakes you made?"

Lilith thought that her image of a kind mother had already been ruined.

As she was very angry now, she didn't want to hide anything. She sneered and said, "Reflect upon the mistakes I made? If I hadn't drugged her and made her r*ped by another man, how could she give birth to that bastard? If I hadn't do that, this little vamp would seduce you, and you two would go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and become husband and wife!

"Don't think that I didn't know what she was thinking about. I've seen too many b*tches like her in my life. She was taken to the Koo family as an orphan. We took good care of her, giving her delicious food and drinks. Guess what she did in the end? This b*tch seduced my son! How could I accept her..."

Dylan face became more and more darkened. Just as he was about to argue further with his mother, he suddenly looked behind her.

No one knew when Aspry, who was supposed to have fallen asleep, came downstairs.

Lilith's face turned pale with fright.

Aspry's eyes widened, and he looked shocked and angry. "What did you say? Is it true?"

Aspry couldn't believe what he heard. He hadn't expected that, regarding the tragedy of Tina, he had been kept in the dark for so many years.

It turned out that it was his wife who had done such a vicious thing to Tina behind his back. Lilith's image of being a virtuous wife in Aspry's mind was also ruined.

Aspry was extremely irritated. He covered his chest with his hands and directly fell backward down to the ground.

The Koo family was then in chaos for the whole night.

After hearing this, Tina was petrified.

Then, she pursed her lips.

She hadn't expected that it was the accidental exposure of her tragedy five years ago that caused Aspry to lose his consciousness...

A hint of slight change of emotion flashed in

Dylan's eyes. He paused for a while and said, "Daddy's heart has always been weak. After he passed out, we immediately called the 120 to send him to the hospital for first aid! We originally thought it was just heart disease, but the doctor found out that he had advanced liver cancer, and his prospect was very bad!"

Tina looked at Aspry again. She really felt sorry for her former adoptive father.

Aspry was actually not too old, and he had always been a good person. Good people should live longer, Tina thought.

Tina's eyes were filled with tears.

Aspry, who had been lying on the ICU bed, had not woken up.

The sun was sinking in the west, and it gradually grew dark. Dylan ordered servants of the Koo family to send them dishes for dinner.

Tina was brought here by Dylan after work. For this reason, she hadn't eaten her dinner.

She made a phone call to the private hospital and asked the nurse to tell Isla that she had something to do in somewhere else.

After putting down the mobile phone, Dylan handed her the chopsticks and said, "Tina, let's eat something!"

"Thank you!" Tina said. She felt hungry.

The Koo family's chef was very good at cooking. The dishes looked delicious and nutritional.

They included beef, seafoods, vegetables, and fruits, etc.

Tina's eyes were fixed on one of the dishes.

The bright-red cherry pulp was dotted with white sesame. It smelled really delicious.

Tina loved this dish very much. When Tina revisited the Koo family after five years of separation, Dylan put this dish near her while they were having dinner. But now, she had lost her appetite in the face of the delicious cherry pulp.

What she was thinking now was Wilson.

Every time they dined out together, he would carefully consider her so-called "child-like" taste.

Tina tried to concentrate her mind again. She picked up the chopsticks.

She lowered her head and began to eat the steamed rice, wanting to fill her belly first.

From time to time, Tina glanced at Dylan from the corners of her eye. She almost tasted all the dishes except for the cherry pulp.

After finishing a bowl of steamed rice, Tina put down her chopsticks.

Seeing that Tina didn't eat only the cherry pulp, Dylan became silent.
