At that time, Fabian was a rakehell who flirted with countless women after being dumped by Vivian, yet not at all serious about any of them. It so happened that Lyna was one of them.
Lyna was a scheming person in the first place, so she naturally wouldn’t miss such a golden opportunity. As such, she urged her mother to bring her to Fabian’s house every day. When Felicia proposed the marriage, Fabian’s mother readily agreed to have her son leave his indiscriminate relationships behind sooner besides seeing that Lyna had quite an extraordinary aura and made a good match for her son.
It was only some time ago that Fabian told her mother about him getting married, but Fabian’s mother had never once mentioned anything about it.
“Uh… I don’t think so. No matter what, she was the one who agreed to the marriage back then, so how could she have forgotten about it?” Felicia’s brows furrowed slightly. She had never contemplated the problem her daughter mentioned, much less be prepared for it, so her tone was extremely sceptical.
“This can’t do. I think we should make a trip over to Norton Residence in a day or two to sort things out,” Lyna declared guiltily. Nonetheless, resentment brimmed within her.
After all, she had been up on cloud nine back when Fabian’s mother agreed to the marriage. But just then, a stark feeling of dread rose within her when she recalled the disparate manner in which Fabian treated her and Hannah.
“Hmph! You’re calling yourself my sister, Hannah Young? Just wait and see how I’m going to torture you when I’ve married into the Norton family!” she grumbled again before leaving with Felicia.
Meanwhile, Hannah felt as though she was walking on air after several such days continued for her. During the past few days she had been hospitalized, she suddenly felt that she was the luckiest person in the world with so many people loving her.
The Young family took meticulous care of her, Winson was particularly close to her, while Leo and Lyna inquired after her well-being. Helen and Jason, on the other hand, were like two clowns who amused her greatly.
As for Fabian, he was absolutely perfect, having moved his bed over from the very night she was hospitalized and stayed with her. Even Felicia was showing her concern albeit silently.
During these few days, Xavier naturally came over often as well. However, Hannah felt sorry for him since Fabian mocked him every single time. Even if Fabian wasn’t there, he was still derided by Helen and Jason, which had her feeling awkward for him.
Sometimes, she even felt that his tenacity played a large part in the successful management of his company.
Speaking of that, it was amusing how the two clowns – Helen and Jason – who usually bickered nonstop suddenly took the same stance when confronted with Xavier and put up an incredibly united front.
“Hannah, both you and Winson are almost recovered now, so you two can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow,” Fabian stated mildly as he looked at the few occupants in the hospital room after having stepped in from outside.
“That’s great! I can finally be rid of this awful place! Hannah, you’ve got to go shopping with me after you’re discharged tomorrow. These few days have been driving me crazy! If you were to stay for any longer, I think I would ended up in the hospital bed beside you.” Upon hearing that Hannah was going to be discharged, Helen was far more ecstatic than the person in question.
“Okay, okay, whatever you say goes after I’m discharged. You can shop or have fun to your heart’s content!” Hannah couldn’t help feeling happy as well when she saw the delight on her sister’s face.
“Hannah, I remember that Fabian promised to bring us back to Mom’s hometown. I wonder…” Winson hastily asked when he heard that he was going to be discharged soon. He had long since wanted to visit his mother’s hometown, but he had never been able to make the trip since no one in the Blackwood family was willing to go with him.
“Well, Fabian definitely won’t lie to you. Since he said he’ll bring you there, he’ll certainly do so.”
