Angel was ready to be discharged after she stayed in the hospital for so many days.
Madelyn got up early in the morning to pack up and she asked curiously when she saw Angel sitting on the sofa motionlessly, “Miss, don’t you want to leave the hospital?”
“Are you deaf? Do I need to repeat myself again after I gave you such clear orders?” Angel was in a bad mood and scolded Madelyn.
“Then I’ll go through the discharge formalities.” Madelyn walked to the door and turned her head. “Miss, why don’t you call Madam again and ask her for help? Maybe she’ll be soft-hearted.”
“How can she helo me? Would I have waited to this point if she was willing to help me?” Angel said angrily, “They’re so old and useless! How dare they treat me like this?! All of them are trash. They’d better be prepared for how I’ll deal with them in the future!”
“Miss, how are you going to survive if you don’t beg them for help? And where will you live?”
“It’s not something you should care about. Hurry up and settle all of the discharge procedures!” Angel urged Madelyn.
Angel lived in the VIP ward, which cost her at least a thousand dollars a day, and Madelyn’s heart ached when she went to pay the bill. Angel did not give her any money and she did not dare to ask for it as well. Madelyn was filled with reluctance as she paid the whole sum.
Madelyn rolled her eyes and thought, “Wasn’t Angel Emily’s daughter? Since Emily is willing to do anything for Azalea, she should be even more generous to Angel. I should ask Emily to pay for it.”
Madelyn called Emily. When the phone was connected, she cried and said, “Emily, Ms. Floyd is going to be discharged today and no one from the Floyd family is here. I need to deal with the discharge procedures, but I don’t have enough money. What should I do?”
Emily asked with a cold attitude, “Did she get an abortion?”
“No.”
“Then why did you call me? I’m very busy and I don’t have time to deal with such shameless people.”
Emily hung up right after she said that and Madelyn’s calls couldn’t get through at all. After that, Madelyn had no choice but to accept her fate and call Azalea.
Azalea picked up the phone and sneered. “Wow, today must be my lucky day! Why did you call me?”
Madelyn ignored the sarcasm in Azalea’s tone. “Azalea, can you do me a favour?”
“Do you need my help? Tell me what you need.” Azalea would never help Madelyn. She just wanted to see what Madelyn wanted before she directly refused.
Madelyn had some hope. “Ms. Floyd is discharged from the hospital today, but she has no money to pay the fees and I need your aunt to pay for it. Please help me persuade her if she’s unwilling to do so. No matter what, Ms. Floyd is her daughter and she can’t just abandon her like this.”
“How can she not have the money to pay for the hospital expenses? This shouldn’t be the case. Even if Angel doesn’t have any money, don’t you have some savings? Now is a good time for you to gain Ms. Floyd’s favour. If you pay for her now, she will definitely repay you handsomely in the future.”
“I don’t have much money because I wanted to leave my savings to you. Please help me persuade your aunt to pay the bill.”
Madelyn lied without any hesitation, but Azalea did not expose her. “Do you really want to give me your savings? You can transfer the money to me first and I will help you persuade Auntie to pay the hospital fees for Angel.”
“Azalea, I’m not giving you the money now. I’m preparing to give it to you in the future.”
“What’s the difference when you’re still going to give it to me? I wasn’t aware that you were so good to me and I feel so moved. Mom, give me the money immediately and I’ll help you. We don’t have to negotiate anymore.”
“How can you be so greedy?” Madelyn wasn’t planning on giving Azalea any money. “Azalea, let me tell you, this is a good opportunity to please Ms. Floyd. She will take good care of you in the future if you do this. Ms. Floyd is the heiress of the Floyd family, and you’ll get any role you want as long as she’s willing to help you.”
“Hahaha, you’re so funny! Why do you want me to suck up to someone who was driven out by the Floyd family? Have you lost your mind?” Azalea lost interest when she saw how stingy Madelyn was. “Since Angel has been removed from the Floyd family, it would make more sense for her to beg me for help.”
Madelyn became angry from embarrassment when she saw that Azalea didn’t want to help her. “Azalea, please think it over. If you don’t help me now, I will never help you if you need to ask Ms. Floyd for a favour in the future.”
“You can rest assured that that would never happen. Let me tell you something, I’m now living in the Floyd family.”
“Huh? What do you mean?” Madelyn asked subconsciously.
Azalea sneered. “Don’t you understand what I’m saying? Then I’ll tell you the details. I’m now living in the Floyd family’s house with Fandrey, Deborah, and Callum.”
Madelyn’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Azalea’s words. How could Azalea live in the Floyd family? Could it be that they knew Azalea’s identity?
“Why would the Floyd family let you live in their house?”
Azalea could guess Madelyn’s current mood. This damned woman was so vicious to her. She would not let go of Madelyn and she planned to slowly make her suffer.
Now was not the time to tell Madelyn the truth, so. Azalea immediately added, “Of course, it’s because I’m the spokesperson for their family. Callum and Fandrey are very kind to me. They’re planning to groom me into an international superstar. Angel had humiliated the Floyd family so much that everyone here despises her. I’m not a fool, so why should I do something that would upset the Floyd family?”
“So that’s how it is!” Madelyn heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Azalea’s words. The Floyd family must be taking care of Azalea for Emily’s sake and it would be fine as long as they did not discover Azalea’s identity. However, Madelyn did not dare to ask Azalea to help her persuade Emily anymore.
It would arouse suspicion if Madelyn helped Angel instead of her own daughter, so she congratulated Azalea resentfully, “Congratulations, don’t forget me when you get rich in the future.”
“Don’t worry, I will repay you!”
Azalea placed emphasis on the latter part of the sentence, but Madelyn didn’t care at all.
Madelyn paid the hospital fees resentfully and rushed to the ward after she hung up. Angel had been waiting for a long time and scolded when she saw Madelyn, “Where did you go? Why do you have to take so long to settle the discharge procedures?”
Madelyn’s heart ached because she had just paid a large sum of money. She said sadly, “The hospital fees cost a lot of money and I had to borrow some because I didn’t have enough in my account.”
Angel was stunned when she heard Madelyns words. “How much did you spend?”
“40 thousand dollars.”
“It’s such a small amount. I’ll give it to you now.” Angel opened her mobile banking app to transfer the money to Madelyn, but her face changed when she saw how much she had left in her account.
