Chapter: 381
On the other end, Raegan seemed calmer after ending the call.
Looks could be deceiving, though.
Time was running out for her grandmother. Even if her grandmother could only spend one more hour in her house, Raegan would try to make it happen.
Just then, a nurse approached Raegan and asked, “Are you a family of the patient in Bed No. 304?"
Raegan's appearance was so outstanding that the nurse remembered Raegan even though she had only visited her grandma several times.
"Yes." Raegan nodded and asked, "What's the matter?"
For some reason, the nurse seemed a little uneasy.
"Someone's Looking for you there. Be careful," she said cryptically.
Raegan, puzzled by the nurse's words, hurried to her grandmother's ward.
The moment she stepped into the ward, a woman lunged at her and slapped her across the face.
Already drained emotionally and physically, Raegan lost her balance and tumbled to the floor.
A fat woman stormed up, jabbed her finger at Raegan, and yelled, “You home-wrecker! How dare you try to steal my husband! Thank God I finally got you!"
Raegan was confused, having no idea who these people in her grandmother's ward were. With a perplexed look on her face, she shot back, "Who even are you? Have we met? Who the hell is your husband?"
Her protests fell on deaf ears. These people were clearly here to make a scene.
Before Raegan had a chance to defend herself further, the fat woman grabbed Raegan by the hair and signaled her friend to hit Raegan's face, leaving it red and swollen.
Meanwhile, Raegan's grandmother, who had just been berated by these women who accused Raegan of stealing someone's husband, was still catching her breath.
When she saw Raegan being assaulted, she felt as if her heart was being ripped, and she murmured, "Don't touch my granddaughter... Let her go..."
Despite being frail, she tried to climb out of bed to stop them, only to collapse onto the floor, wincing in pain.
Smack! A sound echoed through the room.
An egg splattered across Raegan's grandmother's wrinkled face.
