Chapter 388: Erwin Was Hospitalized

“Susan, leave. We’ll settle the divorce in a few days.”

Erwin had already made up his mind. No matter how much Susan begged him, it was useless.

In the end, Susan could only leave with hatred.

She hated Nancy even more. She felt that everything was Nancy’s fault. If Nancy did not exist in this world, no one would snatch everything away from her!

The next day, Susan still appeared in the hospital.

Even though Erwin had spoken coldly to her and insisted on divorcing her, she still stubbornly stayed behind to take care of Erwin’s body and played the role of a good wife.

She even told Erwin, “Erwin, you haven’t divorced me yet, so I’m still your wife, right? I want to stay here and take care of you. I’m worried about you.”

“Erwin, you’re that little brother from all those years ago. My love for you has deepened! Even if you insist on divorcing me, I still love you.”

She no longer begged or pestered him anymore.

It was as if she had suddenly grown up and become sensible! She became gentle and considerate, and she carefully stayed behind to take care of Erwin. Erwin could not chase her away.

On the tenth day of Erwin’s hospitalization, his family came to the hospital to visit.

When Albert saw Susan taking care of Erwin in the ward, he, who used to like Susan very much, put on a cold face and said, “So she’s actually a fake daughter!”

Susan was speechless

Christopher sneered and said, “Heh, I thought whoever married Susan could take over the Millan family’s business.”

“Now I see that you’re just a servant’s daughter!”

Jackson added, “An illegitimate child and a servant’s daughter are a perfect match!”

Erwin’s eyes were cold.

He looked at his so-called family members and said, “So, what are you all here for? Don’t tell me you’re here to visit me. I won’t believe you even if you tell me!”

“How dare you!” Albert said with a cold expression.

Albert had always disliked this illegitimate son of his. All these years, Erwin had become more and more disobedient, which made Albert even more displeased and resentful toward him.

He looked at Susan coldly and said, “Get out!”

After Susan left, he snorted coldly and said, “You can’t blame anyone for this! It’s your own bad luck that led you to marry an imposter!”

“I was thinking that the Millan family’s estate would belong to you in a hundred years, and that would be the Smith family’s assets.”

“Now, she is actually a servant’s daughter.”

Albert was ruthless, and he switched sides in a blink of an eye. He immediately instructed Erwin, “You and Susan should get a divorce now!”

Erwin laughed mockingly at Albert.

“You were the one who wanted to marry her back then. Now, you’re the one who wants a divorce too!”

“Yes, I was the one who wanted you to marry her back then. But she was the daughter of the

Millan family back then. Everything I did was for your own good.”

“Things are different now…”

Erwin interrupted Albert coldly, “What’s the difference? Just because she’s no longer the daughter of the Millan family?”

“Isn’t that enough? She’s just a servant’s daughter. She won’t be of any help to your career and the Smith family. She’ll only be a burden and a joke!”

“Besides, you don’t like her at all. Isn’t marrying her just a formality?”

Erwin admitted that Susan was indeed a formality, but…

“Weren’t you the one who forced me to marry Susan back then? If it weren’t for you, I might have been together with Nancy long ago!”

Erwin was blaming Albert.

He even told Albert, “Do you think marriage is child’s play? Now that I want a divorce, do you think Susan will agree to it easily?”

“Just like what she said, is all of this fair to her?”

Albert did not blame himself at all. Instead, he said coldly, “This is your fate. It’s a result of your own actions. Your life has nothing to do with me!”

Christopher and Jackson immediately stood on Albert’s side. “That’s right. You just have bad luck. How can you blame your father for marrying a fake?”

Christopher was even more direct. “Your injuries are so serious now. I heard that you hurt yourself because of a woman. ”

“You probably don’t have the heart to work now. Tell me about the company in Hillford. Jackson and I will help you manage it.”

“That’s right, you almost died because of a woman. The Smith Group can’t be dragged down just because of you…” Jackson said.

Albert agreed.

He and his two sons had come here today to demand power!

After all, they had long coveted Erwin’s influence in Hillford and had long wanted to get involved. However, Erwin had never given them the chance to do so.

Now that the Smith family’s power in Murica was declining day by day, they were on the verge of losing their position as an aristocratic family. They wanted to seize Erwin’s power even more.

Erwin was seriously injured and hospitalized because of a woman. This was their chance! However, how could Erwin let them succeed so easily?

Erwin did not relent. He even told his father and two brothers, “Don’t worry, even if I die, everything in Hillford will not be in your hands!”

What he said was the truth.

Even if he died, he would only hand evewthing in Hillford over to John and Carlos to manage. He would even donate it to a charity. In any case, he would not let the Smith family off so easily!

Because of this, the Smith family did not make a move against Erwin. They knew that even if Erwin died, they might not be able to take over Erwin’s company in Hillford. That was why the Smith family did not make a move against Erwin.

They could not bear the consequences of killing Erwin.

They could only take this opportunity to talk things over with Erwin and tell him that they were his real family. They wanted Erwin to get them to help him manage the company as soon as possible.

Within their expectations, Erwin did not agree to their request.

Before leaving, Albert said with a cold face, “Think about it carefully and let your Jackson and I manage the company in Hillford.’

“Compared to those outsiders, we are your real family…”

Erwin did not want to hear about this.

He immediately chased them away. ‘You guys can leave now. I need to rest.”

Erwin was hospitalized for a month. Other than that one time, Nancy did not appear at all.

On that day, Erwin was discharged from the hospital.

He went straight to the Millan family home and saw Gabrielle. Gabrielle frowned at his arrival and asked, “Why are you here?” “Auntie, I have something to ask you,” Erwin asked warmly..
