I Only Want You novel Chapter 536

As soon as Theodore's mom saw Elizabeth come back, she asked anxiously, "Have you paid all the money?"

"Yes." Elizabeth nodded, "I've asked the nurse. Uncle doesn't need to receive an operation. All the expenses have been paid, and I've paid twenty thousand dollars for you in advance." After that, she handed the receipt to Theodore's mom.

Theodore's mom took it and looked at it carefully, "Then I won't stand on ceremony, and don't think that I'll thank you."

"Mmm, I don't need your appreciation." After that, Elizabeth smiled gently, "I'll leave first. I hope that we won't meet again." She had done what she thought she should do, and she didn't want to meet them again, because James didn't want her to have anything to do with the Chaos, and she herself didn't want to contact them.

"Wait!" Theodore's mom took her arm eagerly, "I have something to say to you."

Elizabeth frowned and had to stop helplessly.

"Well..." Theodore's mom let go of her, "Elizabeth, you know why Theodore went to find James today. Can you speak for us in front of James for the sake that we've known each other for many years? Can you ask him to let us off?"

Theodore's mom said the same as Theodore had said!

Elizabeth pursed her lips and was about to refuse her without thinking, but Theodore's mom added, "Although it seems that Chao Company has gone bankrupt, in fact, there is still a chance to save it. As long as James promises to let go Chao Company, return the shares back to us, and not to stop our partners from cooperating with us, Chao Company can go back to life again."

"Chao Company has owed a lot of money to the bank before. Now that Chao Company has collapsed, I can't even take out an extra penny. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to pay for the medical expenses for us."

"Back then, Theodore did a terrible thing to you, and that was his fault indeed. But... you are so kind, and you can't bear to see our family be like this, right?"

Elizabeth looked at Theodore's mom silently, but she felt it ridiculous in her heart. Although James had ruined Chao Company and had beaten Theodore that day, what Theodore's mom said made her so uncomfortable...

How could she beg for her forgiveness for what had happened in the past? At that time, she was schemed by the person she trusted the most and spent a night with James whom she had never seen before. Even though James was a good man, Theodore had hurt her severely!

At that time, when she lost everything and even had no family, Theodore did not help her and was with Josephine. As for Theodore's mom and dad, they once treated her politely and said that they wanted her to marry Theodore as soon as possible, but they chose to ignore her at that time.

Theodore's mom took Elizabeth's hand and said hopefully, "Today, Theodore has been beaten, so you have vented your anger. Since Theodore is badly injured and hasn't woken up yet, could you please help us?"

Elizabeth frowned, and then broke away from the hand of Theodore's mom and said coldly, "Auntie, I call you auntie just because we've known each other for many years. Although I have explained it to Theodore, I have to tell you about it again. I don't know what has happened to Chao Company. What's more, I'm not interested in the law of the jungle in the business world. So, I won't help you, and I won't speak for you in front of James."

"You..." Theodore's mom frowned, and there were disappointment and anger in her eyes.

"Even if what you said is true, and it was me who asked James to do that to you, it is even more impossible for me to speak for you. No matter why James did that, I think it is because you're incompetent, and..."

Elizabeth glanced at Theodore, and added without any emotion, "In the past, he colluded with Josephine and treated me like that. Alright, it was just something in the past. But do you know that he almost killed me today? He even wanted to kill James. Do you know that?" As soon as she thought of the despair caused by her helplessness and fear a few hours ago, her body shivered, "He was beaten, but..."
