Ex-husband, Please Respect Yourself

Chapter 106: Television Reporters Visit

Cathy looked up at him and then looked at the lunch box in his hand and smiled shallowly, "Thank you, but I'm not hungry, you can give me a glass of water."

She had a bad appetite during pregnancy and had so much to do these days that she couldn't eat. Now she was only worried about whether her father's operation would succeed. Rory frowned and euphemistically advised, "Miss Lawson, you will not be able to bear it, nor will you be good for your children. Besides, Mr. Raman will worry about it."

Cathy immediately put away her smile and said, "Don't mention him."

She paused for a second and said, "You can put the meal there and I'll eat it later."

Rory did not say a word more. After putting down the meal, he went to the ward with another box of meals.

After a while, Karen also rushed to the hospital.

Cathy was stunned and looked at her in surprise, "Are you not going to work today?"

"I asked for half a day off to come and see you." Karen laughed and then glanced at the ward and said, "Are they all arranged?"

Cathy took a sip of hot water and nodded, "Well, it's waiting for the operation."

When Karen saw that Cathy looked bad, she came near and pinched her hand and comforted Cathy in a low voice, "It will be all right. Don't worry. I think you look so bad, Let's go and have a rest, just leave it to me here."

"Thank you, Karen." Cathy reluctantly smiled and whispered, "How can I possibly be in the mood to go to bed now?"

Karen couldn't help looking at her for a moment. She sat down and hugged Cathy's body. She could only persuade her, "Now it's a long time before the operation. Don't be too nervous. If you fall down again, it will be more troublesome. Would you like your mother to take care of two people?"

Cathy's eyes moved and she watched Karen for a few seconds.

Karen knows what she wants to say and directly blockades what she wants to say, "If you can't sleep, you have to lie down for a while. Do you know how bad your face is now? If the doctors know you're still pregnant, they'll probably have the nurse tie you to the bed."

Cathy still couldn't stand her nagging and begged for mercy with a smile, "Well, I'll lie down for a while, and it's up to you to worry about things here.."

"Okay, you go to rest." Karen smiled gently.

The ward of Mr. Lawson is double and there is an empty bed beside him. Cathy temporarily lay on that bed. Mrs. Lawson touched her thin face with some heartache and said, "Cathy, you've worked hard and you have to rest for a while and I would watched you."

Cathy pulled up the quilt and said, "I'm all right, if you're tired, you can find a place to rest and remember to call me for anything." Then she slowly closed her eyes.

Soon the ward was quiet again.

Mrs. Lawson was afraid of disturbing their rest, she also went out of the ward and stood at the door and chatted with Karen.

Two hours later, Rory came back from the outside with a stern look at the two people at the door of the ward and said, "Mrs. Lawson, Miss Bach, please avoid. The reporter from the TV station arrived and brought a lot of people who are indignant and they bore down in a menacing manner."

The expressions on their faces changed at the same time. Mrs. Lawson turned pale and then confirmed in some confusion, "TV station?"

Karen said coldly, "How did they find it here? Didn't Lawyer Jones have told the court that we would no longer accept such reports?"

Everyone knew about the first judge in Chicago who was arrested for corruption and bribery. Fortunately, his wife and daughter had not been exposed, so their life had not been affected. But now that reporters come so suddenly that Cathy must appear. Isn't that worse?

The expression of Rory is not good, but his tone still does not fluctuate and he said, "The reason is not clear and they came too suddenly. I have contacted Lawyer Jones and he will stop them later, but I'm afraid they'll break in, so I'll persuade both of you to avoid it."

After all, the crime of corruption and bribery of Mr. Lawson has been established, and he will be universally condemned. Those who have something to do with it must be scolded when they go out. So this is not a wayward time, if you can avoid it, you should avoid it.

Mrs. Lawson worried and said, "But what about Cathy!"

She didn't care about anything else. She just feared that her daughter would be implicated. How could she not knew the truth that public clamour can confound right and wrong?

Rory assured quietly, "Miss Lawson, you don't worry about that and I will take care of her."

As soon as he finished, the door of the ward was opened. Cathy stood there looking at several people expressionlessly and said, "Mom, you and Karen should find a place to rest first."

Karen immediately said seriously, "What about you? If you were exposed, do you know how much public opinion you would have to endure? Those who shout slogans at the door can tear you apart, it's too dangerous for you to stay here."

Mrs. Lawson lovingly persuaded her, "Cathy, you listen to me that you go with me and wait there until the people outside leave."

Cathy did not respond and looked up at Rory and said, "Mr. Black, please go to the door with Lawyer Jones and stop people firstly. If they insist on breaking in, you will call the police."

Rory nodded with a solemn expression and then walked away quickly.

Cathy looked at the two people and said warmly, "I have to take responsibility for my father's accident. I never thought about escaping from my father's accident, but I will not move forward on dangerous matters. You can rest assured that I will not go out, but there must be someone left here."

Karen said in a low voice, "Do you expect those mindless keyboarders outside to be as sober and rational as you are? If they break in, you'll die."

"This is the hospital. It's all right." Cathy went over and gave them a push and said, "Come on, you guys."

Mrs. Lawson looked at her resolutely and returned to the ward angrily, "I won't leave my daughter here, I won't leave."

Karen picked up her eyebrows and looked at Mrs. Lawson leisurely and said, "Since you don't go out, we haven't got to avoid it. In case they break in, I can still be half a man." Cathy, "......"Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She knew she couldn't persuade them and stopped persuading them, but she began to feel confused, who leaked their address?

When she learned about the news before, she had asked the prison to keep it a secret and had not told anyone else.

Rory said that besides journalists, there were many ordinary people. How did those people know that?
