Chapter688
Just then, a familiar voice was suddenly heard outside the door.
It was Vonnie’s voice.
Did Vonnie come back?
“How long have I been away, why did things turn out like this? And, you are Ralda’s beloved brother, how could you force her into this?”
Was Vonnie talking to Quentin?
Quentin’s voice was filled with deep exhaustion and pain. “Have all the police left?”
“Well, Dr. Laurent was injured quite badly, and both the hospital and Dr. Laurent’s family were clamoring for the police to arrest Ralda.
Fortunately, Reynaldo stepped in, and only then did the hospital and the Laurent family agree to drop the matter.”
I listened blankly to the conversation outside the door, fear and chill gradually rising from the bottom of my heart.
Why did the police arrest me?
What does it matter to me that Dr. Laurent was injured?
“What do we do now? Mrs. Duffy has left, and Ralda simply couldn’t handle that blow.”
“And what about Mrs. Duffy now that you have become so decadent?”
What does it mean?
Did my mom pass away? What about my mom’s funeral arrangements?
In an instant, the terrifying and helpless scenes in the dream suddenly returned to reality.
Those were not dreams, my mother really passed away.
The despair that was difficult to face once again stood before me, and I covered my mouth, sobbing in pain.
The door of the ward was pushed open,
Vonnic walked in and saw that I was awake, she quickly rushed up and said, “Ralda, you’re awake?”
I bit my hand back tightly and cried uncontrollably.
Vonnie saw the situation and quickly pulled my hand away, saying with tearful eyes, “Ralda, don’t be like this.”
I looked at her, my voice choked up and out of tune. “I have no mother, what should I do?”
Vonnie held me tight, tears streaming down her face. “Don’t be like this, you still have me, you still have Quentin, you still have many, many people who love you.”
When I mentioned Quentin, I instinctively looked towards the door.
He stood quietly at the door, his eyes bloodshot, his face pale and haggard.
I clenched the bedding tightly, with an unquenchable hatred in my heart.
If it weren’t for him bringing that poisonous snake Kimberly into the house, how could my mother have died.
Even if Mom did get sick, there was still half a year to go. In that half

year, there was always hope of finding a matching kidney for Mom.
But now, there is no hope at all.
It’s all because of my elder brother.
He even made me the scapegoat for Mikaela’s death and made it impossible for me to be with Reynaldo, all for Kimberly.
Oh, brother? Dear brother?
This title, it’s really ironic.
Perhaps she saw the hatred and sarcasm on my face.
Quentin shed tears and trembled as he called out to me. “Ralda… I’m sorry,”
“This apology, you keep it to tell your mother.”
I looked at him coldly and said, “Now that my father has disowned me and my mother is gone, do you still want to protect that Kimberly?”
“How can I explain to you so that you will believe that Kimberly is innocent?”
Upon hearing Quentin’s words, I trembled with anger, hatred surging straight into my chest.
“Was she innocent?”
“In this surgery, Dr. Laurent has openly admitted that it was his mistake.
“After being stabbed by you, he had already resigned from the hospital and promised that he would never set foot in the medical field again in his life.
