Chapter 107: I’ll Never Admit She’s My Daughter-in-law
Chapter 107: I’ll Never Admit She’s My Daughter-in-law
As soon as Mr. Edward received the call from Maurice, he rushed to the hospital. Then he was
surrounded by a group of news reporters at the entrance.
“Excuse me, Mr. Edward. How’s Chapman Lewis doing now? Is his life in danger?”
“Mr. Edward, if Mr. Lewis would be paralyzed in bed because of the stroke, would he serve a sentence
out of prison?”
“Can we go in and take a look at Mr. Lewis?”
“What are your opinions on the ten-year sentence that Mr. Chapman Lewis has received?”
So on and so forth.
Everyone was questioning him. To protect Mr. Edward, Maurice was pushed in the middle of the crowd
by them.
Beside them, the onlookers and common people were still yelling with dissatisfaction on their faces,
“You are a famous attorney. You should take the side of the law and punish those bad people. You can’t
let him at large!”
“He knows the law but breaks it. How many innocent people have been killed by him? How many
wrongful convictions has he done? We can’t bear it and we’ll never forgive him!”
“He’d better die in the hospital, so he wouldn’t continue harming others after coming out from the jail.”
The scene was quite chaotic. Although Mr. Edward was calm enough, he still needed to pacify people
in the crowd one after another.
Even the security guards of the hospital rushed over to maintain the order. However, some people who
had lost their minds because of anger still managed to break into the hospital in the chaos.
Chapman was truly involved in corruption and accepting bribes when he was in service. He indeed had
done something awful, so a lot of people had been offended. Those people always found it difficult to
meet him in person. Now they thanked God for providing them with such an opportunity.
At the same time, the driver of the Shawn family also drove the car to the hospital. It took them a while
to get the exact location.
Sitting in the car, Krista caught a glimpse of the chaotic scene and the reporters and cameramen with
TV logos. She was taken aback, but she didn’t get off immediately.
“What’s going on?”
Sabrina had also seen the scene. However, besides feeling surprised, she couldn’t help clapping hands
and cheering inwardly. She had planned to do such a thing, and unexpectedly someone else moved
faster than she could.
“Obviously, they’ve known that Mr. Lewis is in this hospital. They all came here for the headlines.”
Sure enough, the street rat was always the public enemy. Once her identity was exposed, Rachel could
never get rid of the reputation as the daughter of a corrupted official. At the thought of it, Sabrina
wondered how could Rachel compete with her after Rachel’s reputation was ruined.
Krista’s expression immediately changed. “It can’t keep on like this. I’ll never let those reporters go into
the hospital.”
As soon as she finished her words, she immediately said to the driver, “Mason, call the police, reporting
the violence of hospital.”
Upon Hearing it, Sabrina was startled. She couldn’t remain smiling any longer. With a stiffened face,
she asked, “Aunt Krista, what are you doing...”
Didn’t she hate that woman a lot? Why was she helping her?
The driver answered and pulled his phone to make a call immediately.
Krista gazed at the scene outside the window, her eyes flashed with anxiety. She said gloomily, “Rachel
Lewis is still there. If those reporters exposed her and found out about the three-year marriage between
her and Ken, how could Ken maintain his reputation in the business world? Our Shawn family would be Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
humiliated as well.”
Although she hated that woman, Krista still maintained her reason. She couldn’t let it negatively impact
the Shawn family. If that marriage would be exposed finally, it should be after her son had remarried.
Until then, there shouldn’t be so many people noticing it.
Sabrina choked. In an instant, she felt so upset as if she had swallowed a fly. She had thought this old
woman would directly rush into the hospital and find Rachel. She had never expected that Krista would
have so many concerns.
‘What a waste of my energy!’ thought Sabrina to herself.
She didn’t care if the Shawn family would be humiliated or not. She just wanted that woman’s
reputation to be ruined right now, making this old woman hate that woman to the core. Then, Kenneth
would completely give up on that woman and cut off his thoughts.
Moving her lips, Sabrina hid her thoughts perfectly. Then she said gingerly, “Well... Shall we still go in?”
Krista withdrew her gaze and answered immediately, “Of course we’ll go in. It’s a good chance.
It was a good chance to humiliate that woman. She didn’t believe that woman would still pester her son
in such a situation and pretend as if nothing had happened. Coincidentally, Ken came back home. It
would be better to make it clear now, so she wouldn’t need to waste any more energy in the future.
Sabrina was delighted. However, she put on a hint of worry on her face. She said in a soft and
somewhat aggrieved tone, “Then, what if Ken is also there? Besides, I’m with you now. He must think
that I’ve brought you here...”
Krista’s eyes and brows became cold. “I dare him! Does he think his mother a stupid woman? I can
also find here without your help.”
Instantly, she softened her voice and patted Sabrina’s hand dearly. “I know you have a crush on Ken.
It’s my son who’s not sensible. After this incident, I’ll teach him a lesson. I won’t let him break your
heart again.”
Sabrina blushed and lowered her head shyly. She nodded obediently, “Okay. Thank you, Aunt Krista.”
Krista smiled gently. She turned to look out of the window again, a strong sneer flashed across her
well-kept face.
She also used to be a young woman. Although she didn’t expose Sabrina’s schemes, it didn’t mean
that she couldn’t understand. Since she could see through Sabrina’s true color, it would be better than
dealing with other scheming women.
She needed a daughter-in-law who was obedient, sensible, and capable to help Ken, but not a disloyal
trouble maker.
She didn’t like Rachel very much. After Rachel married her son, she still focused on her job. If it weren’t
for the convenience brought by her father’s position at that time, Krista wouldn’t have allowed her son
to marry her. After her father’s incident, it would be less likely.
“Mrs. Shawn, I’ve called the police,” the driver turned around and said respectfully.
Krista nodded. “Let’s get off.”
Finish speaking, she picked up the sunglasses and put them on her face slowly.
The driver got off right away and opened the rear door for her.
Sabrina pushed the door open by herself. Walking past the back of the car, she took Krista’s arm.
Taking a look at the noisy crowd, she suggested, “Shall we go in through the side door?”
Krista answered nasally. Wearing the sunglasses, she voided the crowd and walked from the side door.
Maurice, who was protecting Mr. Edward and surrounded by the crowd, caught a glimpse of those two
women in the corner of his eyes. He recognized Sabrina at a glance, and his expression changed
instantly.
“Excuse me, Mr. Edward. Please be careful. I have to deal with something,” said Maurice. Pushing a
security guard in front of Mr. Edward, Maurice squeezed out from the crowd. As he walked, he pulled
out the phone and made a call.
“Hello, Mr. Shawn. Your mother and Miss Torres are going into the hospital now.”
...
Meanwhile, Rachel, Theresa, and Lillian were still waiting for the news in the ward, wondering how
things were going at the entrance of the hospital.
Lillian couldn’t wait any longer. She said, “How about I go out and have a look? After all, nobody knows
me.”
Rachel looked over at her. Before she uttered a word, the door was smashed open from the outside.
“Bang!”
It was like an earthquake. The whole room shook.
The three women were startled at the same time. Rachel was the first one coming back to her senses.
She immediately stood up and walked in front of Lillian and Theresa. With an alert, she looked at the
three strong young men who suddenly showed up at the door.
“You... Who are you? What are you doing?”
The men took a glance at the women, and then looked at Chapman, who was lying on the bed
unconsciously. And if they had confirmed something, they said, “That’s him.”
Rachel’s eyes instantly widened, blood draining from her face. She rushed to the bedside quickly to
block their gaze and snapped, “Do you know you are in a hospital? If you dare to do anything, think
about the consequences. The police could be here instantly.”
