Elizabeth stood outside the door of the ward. After taking a deep breath, she pushed the door open.
After glancing at the person on the bed, she looked at the middle-aged woman whose hair was messy. She pursed her lips and then called her in a soft voice, "Auntie."
Hearing this, Theodore's mom turned around and stared at Elizabeth for a long time. She almost wanted to rush forward and grabbed Elizabeth by her neck.
But... thinking of the most urgent thing, she restrained herself. She frowned and nodded, "You arrived here pretty fast!"
Elizabeth was a little surprised when she saw the face of Theodore's mom clearly. She used to go to the Chaos quite often, and Theodore's mom had been well-maintained. But that day, she looked much older than before. Her face was haggard, and even her hair had become much whiter.
Ignoring her sarcastic tone, Elizabeth took a look at Theodore who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Theodore... hasn't woken up yet?"
Theodore's mom sneered, "Isn't it just? Elizabeth, I know what he went out for today. When I called him, I knew that he had seen you." As she said so, she turned to look at Theodore who was still in a coma, and said with distress, "Elizabeth, how can you be so cruel? If James used more strength, Theodore would have been beaten to death by him. You grew up with Theodore, didn't you? What's more, you two used to be in a relationship, so you can't treat him so ruthlessly no matter how much you hate him!"
Saying this, Theodore's mom raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face, "Look at Theodore. He had been in a coma before he was sent to the hospital. He has not yet woken up." She turned her head and glared at Elizabeth, "It's all your fault! You and James, the a*shole, will go to hell after you die!"
Elizabeth felt a little guilty. After all, it was James who had ruined the Chaos. Even Theodore had been beaten by James so viciously.
The reason why she came here after receiving the call from Theodore's mom was because of the guilt in her heart. She wanted to know if Theodore was badly injured. She was afraid that James would get into trouble if he was seriously injured.
Although that was her purpose, she felt a little uncomfortable after hearing what Theodore's mom said.
Elizabeth took another look at Theodore, and then turned her eyes to Theodore's mother who was still crying.
She straightened her back and didn't want to explain that she didn't order James to do that. She said firmly, "Auntie, if you ask me to here just to blame me, or even to curse James, I'll go first." After that, she frowned and added, "By the way, don't curse James like that. You don't deserve to scold him!"
Hearing this, Theodore's mom immediately opened her eyes wide, "You!" She was so angry that even her breathing became more rapid.
She had seen Elizabeth grow up because Theodore liked Elizabeth in the past.
In the past, Elizabeth was always very docile and obedient. She had never said a single word loudly in front of her, let alone speak to her so rudely.
Ha...
Sure enough, even her temperament had changed after she found a rich boyfriend. Didn't Elizabeth know how poor she used to be? Did she think that she was very powerful at this time?
"Wait a minute!" Seeing that Elizabeth was really going to leave, Theodore's mom got anxious. She had to hold back the anger in her heart and shouted at Elizabeth in a hurry.
