Dillon glanced at Lucia secretly and signaled her not to talk casually, but the next words made him
even more embarrassed.
"Since you are so reasonable, then I'll tell the truth. Do you think you are a qualified father?" Looking at
Dillon, Kerr said with an unreadable expression on his face, "I think everyone knows the meaning of
eccentricity, but you are doing something like this."
His words shocked everyone, and no one expected him to say so. He had only come to comfort the
wounded and did not expect to be involved in family matters.
Of course, as a member of the media, it was impossible for the media to miss such a thing. They were
eager to dig out more information, because the Qiao family was full of fame in the city.
As a result, the cameramen were in a hurry to keep shooting.
But Lily was most shocked, subconsciously thinking that Kerr was doing this to avenge her.
"We haven't seen each other for sixteen years. Your taste is getting worse, and I'm disappointed with
what you have done." Kerr continued, "If I remember correctly, Lily is the real lady of the Qiao family.
You didn't care about her injury, but you treated that daughter with utmost care who comes from
nowhere. Don't you think you are very bad?"
"Don't say that. This is my family matter. You have no right to judge me." Dillon felt disgraced.
Lucia was not in good mood, so was Claire in the bed. She looked even more embarrassed. Although
Kerr didn't say that she was mistress's daughter, people could have more guesses when hearing this.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Dillon. I'm not in the mood to take care of your family affairs. However, your behavior
makes an outsider look down upon it. What a failure!" After saying that, he turned around to look at Lily
before he left.
As soon as he left, the photographer and the journalist also left. Although gossip was important, what
mattered most was to do something serious!
After he left, the ward suddenly fell into a quiet and very low atmosphere.
"Ah! I want to leave the hospital! I want to leave! " Claire suddenly screamed: "I don't want to stay in the
hospital any longer. I want to leave the hospital. Mom, go to complete the discharge formalities
quickly!"
"Be quiet!" Dillon shouted at her angrily.
"Father..." Claire felt wronged and cried, "I want to go home. I don't want to stay here."
Lucia couldn't bear it anymore. "Why are you roaring at Claire? Was it her fault? Is it because of her?"
Facing her question, Dillon couldn't find any excuses. He softened his tone, "You go to complete the
discharging formalities for her and go home."
After giving him a hateful stare, Lucia turned around and comforted Claire, "Well, don't cry any more. I
will go to complete the discharging formalities for you."
Dillon's face was darkened. He didn't expect to meet Kerr again after sixteen years!
After she comforted Claire, Lucia stood up and walked out of the ward. When she turned around, she
gave Lily an angry stare. If it weren't for her, things like this wouldn't happen today. In this case, Claire
was denigrated!
On the other side, Lily and Becky were still in a daze. And Eden didn't have any expression as if he
was thinking about something.
Becky was the first one who came to herself. She reached out her hand and patted Lily's shoulder,
whispering in her ear, "Do you know Mr. Kerr?"
Lily nodded subconsciously, but then shook her head immediately. Yes, they knew each other, but she
had never talked to him before.
Seeing this, Becky was anxious. "You are nodding and shaking your head. Do you know him or not?"
"Of course I know. He talks on the stage at school anniversary every year. All the students know him,
but I've never talked to him in private." Lily replied seriously.
"Then why did he speak for you today?" Becky was confused.
Lily was also confused. "I also want to know. Does he have a grudge against my so-called father?"
"Perhaps, he was looking at your dad with an upset look."
Looking at the two whispering, Eden was also puzzled.
Claire had already settled down. When she saw the situation, she looked at Eden with disapproval.
"Brother, come over here. I don't allow you to stay with Lily!"
Hearing her words, Eden frowned. He was more and more disappointed in her words and behavior.
She was too willful and unreasonable.
Seeing that he did not move, Claire became angrier. "Brother, I am your biological sister. If you do not
come over, I will not recognize you as a brother!"
When the two girls were whispering to each other, they heard Claire's words and smiled at each other,
of course, sarcastically. At the same time, they turned to look at Eden, as if to see what he was going to
do.
"Claire, you are not a kid anymore." Eden said indifferently, "Be a good girl and don't be willful. Lily is
also my sister, and she is your sister too. Don't say something unwise from time to time."
"You always treat us differently. You..."
"I agree with Eden!" As an old voice came to her, Joe walked in and interrupted her. "You are already
thirteen years old. You are not a child of two or three years old. You should know what you are saying
and what you are doing."
As soon as Claire saw Joe, she was discouraged. She was scared of him most.
"Dad, why are you here?" Dillon hurriedly stood up and tried to support him.
Joe dodged his hand and glanced at him unpleasantly, "Lily was hurt, could I not come?" Why didn't
you call me?"
"I have no time yet."
"Is it ok for you when someone is dead?"
In the face of Joe's stern questioning, Dillon was speechless.
He gave her son a dissatisfied look and walked towards Lily's bed.
Seeing Joe coming, Becky stood up immediately and said, "Grandpa Joe, please sit here."
"Thank you, little girl." Joe sat down with a smile and expressed his thanks.
"You're welcome, Grandpa Joe."
Joe nodded with a smile and gave her one more look unconsciously, she was sensible, obedient and
approachable.
Eden was about to stand up and make way for him, but he didn't expect that Becky was faster than
him. As a result, he couldn't help but take a look at her.
"Lily, are you okay?" Joe asked with concern.
"Grandpa, don't worry. I'm fine." Lily answered.
"Thank God you are all right. Grandpa was so worried when I knew you fell off the cliff." Joe couldn't
help but cry while saying this. "I'm sorry. It's my fault that such a terrible thing happened without your
mother by your side."
"Grandpa, please don't say that." With her eyes getting red, Lily said, "No one expected this. But I'm
very well now. It means that I'm very lucky."
"Yes, God bless us." Joe nodded and agreed with her, "Since you are injured, you need to have a good
rest. You can ask for a leave from the school and not to go to the company for the moment."
"Okay, I'll follow grandpa's arrangement."
After they chatted for a while, they completely ignored others in the ward until Lucia came back.
"I complete the discharging formalities. Dillon, we can take Claire home now." Taking all kinds of
medical records, Lucia went straight into the ward, without noticing Joe.
Joe turned around and looked at Lucia upset and said, "Why are you speaking like that? You don't look
like a wife at all."
Lucia immediately stopped talking. Then she said in a low voice, "Dad, do you come here especially to
see Claire and Lily?"
Although she hated Lily very much, she didn't dare to behave too obviously in front of Joe.
Joe just took a cold look at her and ignored her. He turned to Lily and asked, "Can you get out of bed
and walk?"
"Of course." Lily nodded. She didn't know why her grandpa asked that.
"Then let's go to see the boy who saved you with Grandpa." Joe stood up and said, "I have to thank
him in person."
"Okay."
After getting out of the bed, Lily thought she may not have time to stay with Becky anymore. She
glanced at Becky, and then turned to Eden, wondering how to say.
Eden seemed to know what she wanted to say, "You want me to send her back?"
"Yes." Lily nodded her head in surprise. She didn't expect that Eden guessed what she was thinking. "I
don't have time to stay with Becky. Her knees are injured, so please give her a ride."
"Okay." Eden agreed delightedly.
Lily smiled from the bottom of her heart. "Thank you."
"Lily, I can go home by myself." Becky whispered.
"I'm worried about you. It would be safer if someone sends you back."
All of a sudden, Becky lowered her head, her face turning red and her ears turning pink.
After arranging everything well, Lily followed Joe to the ward of Eric, leaving Lucia who was full of
resentment, Claire who was in a resentful look and Dillon who was in a bad mood.
And Eden escort Becky home.
When they arrived at the door of Eric's ward, she saw that Jade and Frank had left, and even Richard
had left. Only Angela was looking after Eric in the ward.
Lily knocked on the door, although she knew that Angela didn't like her.
As expected, when Angela looked back, her face immediately became serious, but when she saw Joe,
her face slightly turned better.
"Aunt, my grandfather wants to come and see Eric." Lily asked with a smile, as if she was asking for
her opinion.
Angela stood up and said in a gentle tone, "Come in."
Although she didn't like Lily, she had to show respect Joe who was a renowned and influential
businessman.
