FreeGoodNovelChapter 518 After the doctor cout, he informed Charles about Xavier's condition and mentioned that the medical bill would cost 30 thousand dollars. Charles went to the reception to make the necessary payment.
As his mother was also in the shospital, he dared not tell her about his father and Ethan when he visited her. With Ethan jailed, the medication subsidy discontinued, and the health insurance expired, the monthly medical expenses reverted to costing tens of thousands of dollars.
Charles talked to his mother for a while before leaving.
"My salary is only 8000 dollars per month. How am I going to do this?" He felt lost.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSuddenly, his phone rang. Looking at the screen and seeing an unregistered number, he answered it.
"Hello, we're from the loan company..." Charles hung up immediately. For sreason, the loan company had caught wind of his situation and reached out to make him an offer.
He sighed, baffled by how quickly they had obtained such accurate information. His father had just been admitted to the hospital, and they were already calling him.
He returned halone, took a shower blankly, and then went to bed. He tossed and turned but could not sleep at all.
"How did it end up like this? Did I make a mistake?" He started to regret his actions. If he could have been more respectful to Ethan or evaluated the situation before making remarks, things might have turned out differently. Although he helped Stephen, he ultimately hurt his father and the family.
Awake, he picked his phone up, hoping to find an extra job to lessen the financial burden. That was when he received a text from a female colleague. The colleague was beautiful, kind, and smart, and she seemed to have developed feelings for him.
"Are you free this Sunday?" She wanted to ask Charles out.
If things did not go the way they did, he might accept the invitation, but with everything happening to his family, he simply sighed and replied, "I have to work overtime. If there's nothing important, please don't contactanymore." He drew the line and cut her off. After that, he lost the mood to check his phone.
He did not know what to do. Both his parents were in the hospital, and his salary was not enough to help them out financially. What should he do? Would he still have a future? The more he pondered, the more depressed and anxious he got.
Suddenly, he thought of his childhood friends. The last the heard of them was one of them getting married and having a baby. His friends were living the life, but he was no longer in contact with them as they had their own lives to live. Hé, on the other hand, followed Stephen but ended up miserable.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNolan's words suddenly echoed in his mind. "Now you have to hope, along with all those who owe him favors, that Ethan hasn't taken your visit today to heart." Charles finally understood what it
meant. Nolan was speaking the truth.
Offending Ethan and owing him favors was probably the worst m possible position to be in. They could only pray that Ethan would not cafter them. Unfortunately, he understood the meaning a little too late.
He got up, his body exhausted, and took a sleeping pill before returning to bed. However, even the sleeping pitt did not get him any sleep. He was kept awake the whole night. The next morning, he went downstairs to prepare breakfast for his parents. When Xavier saw Charles entering the ward, he got so agitated that he almost passed out again.
"You bastard! Ethan has helped us so much and saved your mother's life, yet you helped the enemy to get him locked up? Is this how you repay our savior? Are you trying to givea heart attack?" Charles looked down, his voice timid as he muttered, "It's not like that. I-" "Get out of my sight!" Xavier did not want to see Charles, and there was nothing Charles could do either. He put down the breakfast and then left with his head down.
