Together Apart: Her White Moonlight Has Returned Too-Chapter 108: Returning Your Life-Saving Grace

Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Returning Your Life-Saving Grace

"Rhea, didn’t I tell you not to come!" Cleo Sutton’s face was terribly pale, she could barely walk a few steps before almost collapsing.

Vera Yves quickly stepped forward to support her, "Your health condition is not suitable for going out; catching a cold will worsen your illness."

Winston Valentine watched the two standing together, almost instinctively scanning their faces.

Cleo Sutton had wasted away due to the torment of illness, and the two people didn’t look much alike.

He unexpectedly felt a faint sense of relief.

Melinda Shelby straightened her spine as she saw Cleo Sutton, and her previously calm face was suddenly filled with fury.

"Cleo Sutton, this is a place where you belong!"

Cleo Sutton coughed several times, glanced at Melinda Shelby, her eyes devoid of emotion, and beckoned to Rae Rhodes, "Rhea, come to mom."

Rae Rhodes seemed to finally snap back to reality, hurriedly returned to Cleo Sutton’s side, and supported her, "Mom, I’m worried about grandma..."

"Come with me!" Cleo Sutton grabbed her hand.

Rae Rhodes refused to move, "Am I so shameful in your eyes?"

Jean Taylor stepped forward, "Oh, so you think you’re presentable! An illegitimate daughter hoping for acceptance! You’re just as shameless as your disgraceful mom!"

Cleo Sutton held Rae Rhodes’ hand tightly, "Come with mom!"

Vera Yves also looked at Rae Rhodes, "Her body can’t take it, stop causing a scene!"

"Why go?" Jean Taylor seized the opportunity, naturally not missing the chance to perform in front of Melinda Shelby, "You were a mistress, and now you want to leave after entering The Valentine Family’s territory? Trying to claim someone else’s husband, feeling accomplished?"

Cleo Sutton remained silent, Vera Yves supported her towards the elevator.

Jean Taylor suddenly stepped forward.

"Slap!" A fierce slap landed on Cleo Sutton’s face, almost causing her to fall.

Before anyone could react, she snatched the hat off Cleo Sutton’s head, intending to grab her hair, only to find she couldn’t.

Cleo Sutton’s hair had fallen out from chemotherapy, in these few months, only a small section had grown back, barely covering her scalp.

After the shock, Jean Taylor still wanted to grab her clothes.

Vera Yves reacted, blocking in front of Cleo Sutton, "She’s a patient, you can’t treat her like this!"

"What patient! Just a mistress!" Jean Taylor sneered, "And a bald one! Second Brother’s taste is truly disgusting!"

Melinda Shelby looked at the battered woman before her, yet felt no satisfaction, even though she had become like this, Tristan Valentine insisted on marrying her!

"Vera Yves, you traitor! Move aside! Or I’ll tear you apart too! You protect this mistress, no wonder your husband cheated on you!"

Vera Yves remained calm, "In my eyes, she’s just my patient."

Jean Taylor tried to pull Vera Yves away but was blocked, Winston Valentine coldly eyed Jean Taylor, "Aunt, this is a hospital, grandma is still in the ward, can you calm down for a bit!"

"It’s not me causing trouble, it’s this bitch and her daughter!" Jean Taylor questioned suspiciously, "Winston, you wouldn’t want to acknowledge this sister, would you?"

Winston Valentine’s expression darkened several shades, before he could speak, the elevator doors opened again.

Tristan Valentine walked out, and upon seeing the hat on the ground, and the red mark on Cleo Sutton’s face, his face instantly turned icy.

Cleo Sutton held her body steady, walked to his side, and grabbed his arm, "Tristan, take me back to the villa!"

Tristan Valentine tenderly touched her face, "Let Leo send you back."

Cleo Sutton clutched his arm, "I’m fine, come with me."

Tristan Valentine tightened her coat, took the hat Leo handed him, and put it back on her head, "Be good, go back first, my mom is still in the ward, I need to accompany her."

Rae Rhodes wanted to say something, but faced with Tristan Valentine’s cold eyes, she hastily supported Cleo Sutton.

Cleo Sutton had no choice but to follow Leo into the elevator with Rhea’s support.

Vera Yves wanted to leave with them, Winston Valentine grabbed her wrist, "I need to talk to you."

Vera Yves struggled but couldn’t break free.

Tristan Valentine walked directly to Melinda Shelby, raising his hand angrily.

Melinda Shelby neither dodged nor flinched, "Hit me, let everyone see how our esteemed Chairman Valentine brings a mistress into the house and hits his wife!"

"Slap!"

A loud slap made Jean Taylor shiver, she quickly hid behind Samantha Warren.

The slap didn’t land on Melinda Shelby’s face, Henry Sterling pulled her aside, taking the hit himself.

"Tristan Valentine, how dare you hit my person!" Melinda Shelby glared at him furiously.

Henry Sterling looked at Tristan Valentine with a gentle attitude, "Chairman Valentine, consider the consequences, the younger generation is watching, don’t make things ugly, Grandma has been waiting for you."

Tristan Valentine glanced at Melinda Shelby with disgust before walking towards the ward.

Melinda Shelby looked at the slap mark on Henry Sterling’s face, shaking with rage, she headed straight for the elevator, Henry Sterling followed behind.

Seeing Winston Valentine standing with Vera Yves, Melinda Shelby’s eyes narrowed in disdain, and she stepped into the elevator.

Jean Taylor breathed a sigh of relief, walking towards the ward with Samantha Warren.

Vera Yves said coldly, "Can you let go now?"

Winston Valentine pulled her into the safety passage outside before releasing her.

"Grandma lost consciousness at home, so we brought her to the hospital."

Vera Yves’ eyes flickered.

"Her condition is much worse than we thought."

"I can recommend other doctors for you."

"After she wakes up, she’s very resistant to hospitals, she only trusts you."

Vera Yves said helplessly, "Winston Valentine, I’m not entirely confident."

"We have to try, at least grandma is willing to cooperate with you." Winston Valentine looked down at her, "Why are you so reluctant, do you still care about me, so..."

"Who cares about you?" Vera Yves looked at him displeased, "You’re just a stranger to me."

"Since you consider me a stranger, why not treat grandma?"

The phone rang, Vera Yves took out her phone, seeing it was a call from Miles Monroe, she was about to answer when Winston Valentine snatched it away.

"Winston Valentine!" Vera Yves reached to grab the phone.

Winston Valentine instinctively held her waist, pulling her into his arms.

Vera Yves tried to move away, but Winston Valentine held her lower back firmly, her scent making him ache.

Vera Yves struggled forcefully, "Let go of me!"

The next second, Winston Valentine pushed her against the wall, looking at her flushed face filled with anger, her rosy lips seemed to invite him.

Winston Valentine suppressed the urge to kiss her, "You should remember, I saved your life in those woods."

Vera Yves bit her lip, "So what?"

"Treat grandma, and that favor will be cleared."

"President Valentine truly is a businessman," Vera Yves looked up at him, "Remembering clearly the good you did to me, but forgetting how you hurt me before!"

Vera Yves pushed him away with a mocking smile, "Alright then, I’ll repay your life-saving favor!"

Vera Yves took her phone from his hand, speaking slowly, "I can treat Grandma, but The Valentine Family will have to meet a few of my conditions."
