Chapter 1745
Magdalen caught up from behind.
Estelle drove like a madwoman, pushing the speed to its limit, rushing to the hospital as quickly as possible.
When they arrived, the operation was still ongoing. Emily was sitting on a bench, and when she saw Estelle and
Magdalen, she finally broke down and tears streamed down her face.
“It’s okay. I asked the nurse. He was hit in the leg. There’s no danger to his life!” Estelle reassured Emily, wrapping
her arms around her shoulders.
Emily’s face was wet with tears, her eyes red, her whole body trembling, “lreally hate him!”
Magdalen also hugged her, “Honey, whatever happens, you’ve got me and Ella. Don’t be afraid!”
Just as they were comforting Emily, they heard someone shout, “Who’s in charge of OrbitaTech Ventures?”
Estelle turned to look, and Gina had arrived, followed by Emily’s sister-in-law Bonnie Ferber!
Bard and two other company leaders went over to greet them. Bard said, “Hello, you must be Gina. Shawn is still in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcritical condition. If you need to talk something, let’s do it later!”
Bonnie spoke coldly, “First, let’s talk about compensation. My father-in-law was injured trying to save your
company’s property!”
Bard tried to calm her, “Can we discuss compensation after the operation is over?”
“No!” Gina snapped, “I’ve asked around. Even if he survives, he’ll definitely be crippled. You better not try to shirk
responsibility. How are you going to compensate? Make it clear right now!”
Bonnie was sharp and demanding, “At least 500 grand! My father-in-law is a five-star chef. After such a serious
injury, he’ll definitely not be able to work. He’s still so young, and he could still work for at least ten more years.
Taking into account his annual salary, plus future nutrition and care costs, we’re not asking for too much!”
Magdalen, who had a quick temper, couldn’t stand it any longer. She got up and walked over, her beautiful face
cold and stern, “Why not ask for 5 million? He is still in the operating room, and all you care about is money.
Money must be your god, right?”
“Who are you?” Bonnie glared.
Magdalen laughed coldly, “Don’t you recognize me? Ask your mom who gave her a gold bar once.”
Estelle walked over, speaking blandly, “Gina, let’s wait until Emily’s father wakes up before discussing other things.”
Gina’s face hardened, “Ms. Sampson, Ms. Macclain, I know you’re friends with Emily, but this is a family matter.
Please stay out of it!”
“So you can bully Emily to death?” Magdalen retorted angrily, “You left Shawn to Emily without even caring about
him, and now that there’s trouble, you come running for money, Have you no shame?”
Gina’s face turned pale with rage, “I haven’t even blamed Emily yet, and now you’re blaming me? Fine, let me ask,
how did she take care of her father, to let him go so far to work and get injured? Doesn’t she, as a daughter, have
any responsibility?”
Estelle’s face hardened, “Do you even have conscience while making the remarks?”
Magdalen was furious, “Conscience? What a heartless, ungrateful family!”
“You’re too rude!” Bonnie turned livid with anger, “Just because you have money, you think you can insult people as
you please? Who gives you the right to interfere in our family matters?”

Gina trembled with rage, lifted her purse, and was about to hit Magdalen. Estelle grabbed her wrist and pushed her
back, “You’re not so tough when you’re being bullied, but you’re quick to blame your own daughter!”
Gina stumbled back a few steps, pointing a finger at Estelle with a twisted expression, “You, you have no right to
interfere in our family matters!”
Estelle’s eyes turned icy, “When it comes to Emily, I have every right!”
“So you think money gives you the right?”
“Enough!”
Emily suddenly shouted, standing and walking over to them. She stood before Gina, her eyes starkly red, her lips
white, her whole body shivering as if she was suppressing her feelings to the limit.
“You want money? On what grounds do you want money? Do you know how the company’s warehouse caught fire?
It was because my father and his friends were playing cards inside, and one of them carelessly tossed a lit cigarette
onto a cardboard box, causing the fire. The company’s loss is over a million, and you want them to compensate
you?”
Emily were furious, “Compensating you is absolutely impossible. Better prepare to sell your house to compensate
the company!”
