Chapter 727 Stealing A Kiss
“Evelyn, I can’t help you anymore. All our accounts are restricted. Anyone give you money would be in trouble,” said Flynn.
“What should I do, Flynn?” Evelyn was trembling.
“Sorry, that’s your problem now.” Then, Flynn hung up the phone.
Evelyn was shocked. Am I really broke now?
“Excuse me, please pay the bill so we can close the account.” The nurse came back. Evelyn did not know what to do.
“You don’t even have three hundred and sixty dollars? You can’t be broke if you wear branded clothes!” said the nurse.
“I’m not broke! I’m a Murphy! I won’t owe you a mere three hundred dollars!” yelled Evelyn.
“I don’t know any Murphy. Quick, we are all still waiting for the payment,” sneered the nurse.
I want to pay the bill too! Evelyn felt so embarrassed. “There’s some problem with my bank account. Please wait for a bit. I’m calling my friend.”
“You better hurry,” said the nurse before she left. Evelyn quickly made a call.
Meanwhile, Adam was staring at Emmeline, who was asleep. Adam could not get enough of the sight of Emmeline’s delicate and pretty face.
“Oh, Emma…” Adam was about to kiss Emmeline’s check when the phone rang. He was startled.
Emmeline was awakened by the phone ring, too. She turned and looked at Adam’s face even though she could not see anything. Adam immediately pulled back.
The phone continued to ring. “Mr. Green, are you there? Your phone is ringing.” said Emmeline.
“Yes, I’m here. I’m just tucking your blanket,” said Adam. He was cursing in silence when he saw the name of the caller. “I’ll take the phone outside,” said Adam in a gentle voice.
“Sure,” said Emmeline. She started to feel better after taking the medicine the day before. Her stomach was no longer in pain. She felt strong enough to protect herself if “Mr. Green” took advantage of her, even though she still could not see anything.
Meanwhile, Adam answered the phone in the living room. He was annoyed because it was the third phone. call from Evelyn. “Damn! What’s your problem?” said Adam angrily.
Evelyn was on the verge of crying when Adam answered the phone, but her heart sank when she heard his tone. “Adam, please help me,” she begged.
“Help you? What have you done?” Adam scoffed.
“I didn’t do anything! The Murphy family had cast me out, and I’m penniless,” said Evelyn.
“That’s what you get for getting on Abel’s nerves!” said Adam.
