Erlina Lee broke free from Steven Austin’s arms and pointed her finger at Amelia Bright’s nose and said angrily
“When you have the baby, you get the hell out of the Austin family and divorce Farren, we the Austin family don’t dare to have a daughter-in-law like you who is capable of ascending to the top.”
“Mom, what are you talking about?”
Amelia Bright was scolded confused, “How can I be blamed for Halyn’s accident, I …”
“That’s enough, you still want to weasel out of it! If you hadn’t urged her to learn, if Jay Mo didn’t like you, and you were brave enough to be so skilled in jewelry design, would she have learned from you? You knew she was a simple child who would do anything for her feelings, and you let her do it, and you arranged for her to study in a place in the middle of nowhere.
Erlina Lee’s scolding became more and more unpleasant, “You are revenge, revenge against us for treating you badly, but you are revenge against me, what is your bullying Halyn?”
The cries echoed in the hallway like a silver needle in Amelia Bright’s eardrums.
If Steven Austin hadn’t stopped her, Erlina Lee would have pounced on her in a fury.
“Amelia, just go back,” Steven Austin said.
Steven Austin stopped in front of his wife, frowning with a grim face.
“Also, don’t come back to the hospital, and don’t worry about Gong Olson’s affairs in the future, just stay home and raise the baby.
“Dad, you also think this is my fault?”
“There’s no point in arguing who’s right and who’s wrong now,” Steven Austin said angrily, “Halyn is already in trouble, even if it’s not your fault, what can be undone?”
An inexplicable feeling of dizziness attacked her brain, Amelia Bright’s body swayed slightly, fortunately, Adjutant Xun beside her in time to help, but he also advised.
“Madam, you’d better go back first.”
“What about Farren? Does he feel the same way?”
The entire Austin family was on their side, as if she had just returned as Amelia Bright, the only difference being that she didn’t care, but now she would be vilified by these words, simply because they were Farren Austin’s family.
“The chief is still investigating in the suburbs, ma’am, so you should go back first.”
Adjutant Xun urged, seemingly afraid that things would get out of hand, “Even if you’re not looking out for yourself, you’re looking out for the baby in your belly.”
Amelia Bright could barely remember how she walked out of the hospital, her mind in a state of confusion, filled with the angry face of Erlina Lee when she accused herself, like a nightmare, a nightmare that she could not wake up from.
At night.
Farren Austin came home late and looked slightly stunned to see that she had been in the living room.
“Why are you still awake?”
The clock hand was already pointing past twelve, and Amelia Bright’s eyes were red, obviously she had just cried.
Farren Austin’s heart ached as he walked over and took her into his arms.
“The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.
“But it really wasn’t my suggestion for Halyn to study jewelry design.”
She had been holding these words in her heart for a whole day, but when she said them, she felt powerless.
As Steven Austin said, it didn’t matter if it was her suggestion or not, what mattered was that Halyn Austin had such a big accident, and it happened at the place she introduced her to, so she had nothing to do with it.
“Is Halyn okay?”
She choked up for a moment before asking the question.
“Not in the best of spirits, Jay Mo is with her,”
Farren Austin slowly rubbed her back to smooth her breath, his tone dull.
“Don’t go to the hospital, just stay at home for a while, tomorrow call Danna Keller back to keep you company, I’ll take care of things at home, you don’t have to worry about it.”
Amelia Bright nodded her head, but her face was still pale.
After she calmed down, regret took over her entire mood.
“Mom was right, if I hadn’t let Halyn go so far away to learn, if I could have talked to Master Li and let Halyn’s bodyguard stay close, maybe these things wouldn’t have happened at all.”
She was to blame.
Halyn Austin grew up and never went out without a lot of protection from her bodyguards, because of a rich father and a brother who had numerous feuds with the mob and had to be careful again and again when she went out.
But she let her take the initiative to unload these protections, she is responsible.
Seeing her crying harder and harder, Farren Austin’s brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
“It’s not your fault, the vulture did this.”
Amelia Bright froze for a moment, looked up from Farren Austin’s arms and stared at him blankly, “You’ve found out about those people?”
“The modus operandi, the arrogance of deliberately leaving clues, and the three people with priors in the database all prove that it was the ‘Vultures’ getting back at me, arranged by the Vultures.”
“It was that organization six years ago?”
When someone had first attacked her, Farren Austin had told her about one of THE Austin family’s big enemies out there.
Six years ago when Farren Austin led Blue Eagle Special Forces to eliminate a group of international drug trafficking organizations, the most ruthless and strongest opponent he encountered – the organization’s leader, codenamed Vulture, was a person who still had no record of his appearance in the database.
In that operation, the Blue Eagle Special Forces led by Farren Austin sacrificed two men, but eliminated the Vulture’s lair and captured most of the core members of the Vulture organization, but only the Vulture was left out.
After that time, Blue Eagle Special Forces, and even the entire Hounslow theater, had their biggest nightmare of the entire year.
First is the Somalia ordnance operations, special operations team members sacrificed more than half of Calla Moon missing, after the Hounslow military area combat exercises Farren Austin encountered a minefield explosion, both legs almost paralyzed, and the special operations team sacrificed those members of the relatives died without exception.
Because of this incident, Farren Austin painfully disbanded the Blue Eagle Special Forces, so that the remaining members of the team all anonymously mixed into the general population.
Now that Blue Eagle Special Forces has reorganized, it has undoubtedly attracted the attention of the Vultures.
“The Vulture’s greatest characteristic is his vengeance, and he will not spare anyone who participated in that operation, not even their families.”
And Farren Austin, as captain of Blue Eagle and supreme commander of the Hounslow theater, bore the brunt of it.
Amelia Bright did not expect this to involve such a big thing, and when she finished listening, a layer of sweat had percolated out of her back, and she subconsciously held Farren Austin’s hand, as if he was going to be in deep and unpredictable danger in the next second.
“So this has nothing to do with you, don’t blame yourself.”
Farren Austin touched her cheek, arranged the hair on her forehead behind her ears, and said in a deep voice, “You just need to drink yourself to protect the child, the other nothing to worry about, do not be afraid.”
In front of life and death, all arguments are left behind and become childish jokes.
All last night’s arguments were dispersed in this moment into clouds of smoke.
Amelia Bright held his hand tightly, her heart was afraid, but she could only pretend to be calm.
“I’m not afraid.”
