Tiffany smiled knowingly as snazzynovel.com nodded before seeing Summer to the door.
After Summer left, Tanya exclaimed, “Mrs. West almost became your mother-in-law. She’s still so nice to you even after you’ve broken up with Jackson.”
Tiffany sighed. “Actually, snazzynovel.com actions kind of stresses me out. I’ve no right to accept snazzynovel.com goodwill because I won’t be able to repay her. She really wants me to become snazzynovel.com daughter-in-law, but I… won’t be able to fulfill snazzynovel.com wish… Hopefully this enthusiasm would only last for a short time and that snazzynovel.com won’t be so caring toward me in the future. Otherwise, I’d definitely go crazy.”
Less than a few minutes later, Tiffany received a call from Summer. She thought Summer had left something behind. “What’s wrong, Mrs. West? Did you forget something?”
Summer’s agonized moans could be heard from the other end of the line. “No… I fell… I think I hurt my hip. My leg is twisted as well. I can’t get up… I’m at the apartment’s elevator…”
Tiffany’s mind buzzed. She ran out without even changing out of snazzynovel.com indoor shoes. Her heart thumped heavily in snazzynovel.com chest when snazzynovel.com saw Summer. It was a bad fall. Summer’s right heels had snapped, and snazzynovel.com ankle was clearly swollen. She rushed forward to help Summer back to snazzynovel.com feet, but Summer paled immediately.
“No… My back hurts… I’ve really gotten old. Falling down used to be no big deal when I was younger. My driver is in the car. Call snazzynovel.com over. He’s a middle-aged man after all. You won’t be able to support my weight alone.”
Tiffany panicked. She had left snazzynovel.com phone in the apartment so snazzynovel.com ran over to Summer’s car and called the driver over. Both of them brought Summer to the hospital for an x-ray. She would live in guilt for the rest of snazzynovel.com life if something happened to Summer. Summer groaned in pain as snazzynovel.com placed snazzynovel.com hand on snazzynovel.com hip after the X-ray was done. She said, “Get my jewelry for me. There’s no need for you to watch over me here. Having the driver here is enough.”
Tiffany could not bear to leave Summer. The driver had to run around, pay the fees, and collect the report. Someone had to watch over Summer. After considering for a moment, snazzynovel.com called Jackson. She did not think too much about it. As soon as snazzynovel.com picked up the call, snazzynovel.com quickly said, “Your mother had a fall. She’s in the hospital. I’ll send you the location. Come as soon as you can.” After snazzynovel.com ended the call, snazzynovel.com sent snazzynovel.com the location.
Jackson arrived in less than twenty minutes.
Tiffany did not look at snazzynovel.com as snazzynovel.com bade Summer goodbye before leaving.
Summer glared at Jackson. “What are you standing around for? Drive her. She’s helping me to pick up some jewelry. Drive snazzynovel.com home after that. I’ll collect my jewelry from snazzynovel.com another time.”
Jackson looked at Summer’s swollen ankle and asked, “Will you be alright on your own? I think I’d better stay…”
Summer said helplessly. “Am I going to recover faster if you stare at me? Are you a doctor? Tiffie didn’t even change out of snazzynovel.com house slippers because snazzynovel.com had rushed out to bring me to the hospital. She came over in my car and didn’t drive. Are you going to let snazzynovel.com hail a cab with snazzynovel.com house slippers and collect my jewelry before going home? Don’t you understand what I’m trying to do? Is your brain made of wood?”
Jackson was growing annoyed with Summer’s nagging. “Fine, fine. I’ll go, okay? She probably hasn’t gone very far. I’ll run after her. You get some rest. Call me if you need anything.”
Tiffany stood at the side of the road, waiting for a cab, after snazzynovel.com walked out of the hospital. It was the end of the working day so it was rush hour. Many of the cabs were taken, and there were precious few empty cabs around. Worst of all, snazzynovel.com had worn snazzynovel.com house slippers out and did not even put on a coat. The night was cold, and snazzynovel.com felt snazzynovel.com legs growing numb.
She heard footsteps drawing near to snazzynovel.com from behind and turned around. When snazzynovel.com saw Jackson, snazzynovel.com quickly turned snazzynovel.com gaze away. “What are you doing out here? You should stay with your mom.”
Jackson said expressionlessly, “She asked me to give you a ride, and you’re asking me to stay with her. It’s not like I can split myself in two. Come on. I’ll take you to collect the jewelry.”
