Nola turned her face aude in a hurry to cover her embarrassment. Wir also withdrew his bad and Damion who was driving the car, which made Damion sewed. But it was not this fault. He had to brake in frer of the d light.
Damion’s hands holding the steering wheel were trembling. He could feel Elvis anger in Els sharp eyes

“I was defending you! You are my husband, and we share the honor and the shame. I also did this for myself and the reputation of the Grayson family. You are the son of the Grayson family. Any insult to you is also an insult to myself
Nola’s answer amused Damion. Damion just thought Nola’s words suited Elvis style. The difference between the two was that Elvis didn’t talk much and just let those people who offended the Grayson family know what price they were going to
pay
A smile flashed over Elvis‘ face. He suddenly felt a little happy.
“It seems that the homeless cat is loyal to her new master.” As Elvis said this, he stroked Nola’s hair.
Nola was stunned by his action.
He said this so fondly that she felt like she was really the homeless cat
Blushing, Nola cleared her throat and said seriously, Tm not the homeless cat. I’m the smart cat. The smartest one. You are lucky to bring me home.”
“Really?” Elvis smiled, “You are not modest at all”
“You are also not a modest man. I’m just telling the truth.”
Nola thought Elvis was not as horrible as the rumor said. She didn’t know if Elvis was bad–tempered, but she didn’t care if he would bring bad luck to his wife.
Nola believed firmly that everyone had his or her own destiny. Elvis‘ first love died, but it was not his fault. Life and death were decreed by fate. Perhaps that woman just had a short life.
Feeling that Elvis was in a good mood, Damion was relieved. Indeed, Mrs. Grayson was able to influence Mr. Grayson’s mood. Elvis had been cold all the time. It was rare to see him happy. It seemed that the two would have a happy future. At least, they had a good beginning.
Chapter 17
Damion knew about the acidem that had happened a few years ago. He had been following Elvis for years and knew many things. Damion knew Elvis had never forgotten about the accident, even though he never said anything about it.
After that woman died. Elvis became more and more depressed, and he seldom talked to girls.
Elvis was capable, and he took over Grayson Group when he was young. His mother was in bad health, so his father often took his mother on a trip all over the world. Only Elvis and old Mrs. Grayson were left in the family.
Elvis had no objection to his parents journey. He thought he was capable enough to support the family. His father loved his mother, so Elvis also hoped he could meet the one who he loved.
He thought he had found the woman, but unfortunately, the woman died like that. After that, Elvis refused to make a new. relationship. He had few friends. All his friends were made when he was a child.
Now, he finally had a woman. Generally speaking, he should introduce Nola to his friends, but he just thought it was too early. He would think about this after some days.
Elvis friends didn’t even know he was already married.
When Elvis was lost in thought, they arrived at the hospital. When Elvis got out of the car, he looked around the place. It was not a good hospital. Nola still lived in the Grant family, but her father, Myles Grant, just let her mother stay in such a poor place
It could imagine how hard Nola’s life was in the Grant family. Nola couldn’t even afford the medical expense in this hospital.
Damion went to park the car, while Nola and Elvis went into the hospital. Nola was happy, because she didn’t have to worry about the medical expense. However, when she got to the ward where her mother stayed, she saw another patient on her mother’s bed
She asked the nurse, “What’s going on? Where is my mom? This is my mom’s ward. You can’t let anyone else stay here.”
The nurse shook off her hands impolitely. “Ms. Grant, you haven’t paid the medical bill, so your mother can’t stay here. A lot of patients are waiting for a ward to stay in. You can’t afford it, but someone else can.”
“Where is my mom?”
“That mad woman can’t afford the medical expense. We have to deal with this according to the rules. She doesn’t have money, so she must pay with her work.”
“What do you mean? Where is she?” The sudden change in the hospital shocked Nola. Nola didn’t intend to owe the money. How could the hospital force her mother to work?
“She’s just doing some simple work, like doing the dishes or something. Don’t care so much about a lunatic. Doctors in the mental hospital knew how to order mental patients.
Nola’s mother just had a bad memory. She couldn’t remember the past but was not a lunatic.
Hearing that her mother was forced to work in the kitchen, Nola hurriedly went there. With a frown, Elvis caught up with her and was worried she might be in trouble.
When they got there, they saw a fat woman who had a whip in her hand ordering the patients to work in the kitchen. Those who didn’t work would be whipped. Nola’s mother was doing the dishes and the fat woman was going to whip her because she was too slow,
Nola rushed forward and tried her best to push the woman away. She helped her mother get up and said sorry, “Sorry, mom. It’s my fault to let you suffer so much.”
