Chapter 15 Pay For It
Chapter 15 Pay For It
Beth was shocked by his words.
Her eyes were wide in disbelief, and her throat was strangled by his fingers as if it was about to break.
Took her eyes out?
Her eyes were red. “Aaron, I didn't push her.”
“You can't… take my eyes for her.”
Why?
Kathy deserved it. Why should she denote her eyes?
She wouldn't!
Aaron snapped, “You didn't? What if you did do it?”
“You owe her, and you should give her your eyes!”
He did not listen to her explanation, and now the fire and ferocity in his eyes were turned into thin
blades to chop her to pieces.
It seemed that there was a knife piercing her heart.
What did he mean by saying that she owed Kathy? Why did she have to sacrifice herself for Kathy?
Why?
Why, indeed?
The door of the emergency room opened again when Aaron was about to continue saying
Seeing Kathy was taken out, the Johnsons and Aaron gathered around her with deep concern.
Eyes blurred by tears, Beth's body feebly fell along the wall to the ground.
Kathy must be pretending. After all she had pretended to be pregnant, so it was possible that she was
faking blindness.
But Beth was really scared.
She was afraid that Aaron would go crazy enough to take her eyes out.
She wouldn't be able to see him without her eyes, would she?
Suddenly, her belly began to cramp again. The pain made her face pale and decreased her breath.
And the medicine!
Where was her medicine?
She rummaged around, feeling so much pain that she could not straighten up.
But she realized that she didn't have time to take her medicine before coming out of the house.
Now she even didn't have the money for medicine.
She gritted her teeth and got up from the ground, stumbling toward the direction Aaron took.
“Aaron.” She grabbed his sleeve.
Aaron and the Johnsons looked back at her.
“My stomach hurts. can you lend me some money for medicine?” Because her stomach was so painful,
she cramped when she was speaking. But Aaron didn't give her a little sympathy, his eyes horribly cold.
He pushed her away. “Don't imagine I'll forgive you when you're faking sickness. Even if you die, I'll
take your eyes out!”
Beth was slammed on the ground by the push.
Her head sweated with pain, but she became more conscious.
Beth sat still, staring at his retreating figure. Tears filled her eyes when she thought of his indifference
and disgust.
She was too exhausted to continue the chase.
The boy she found through thick and thin had forgotten her and didn't like her anymore.
What's the point of keeping waiting for him?
He was going to take her eyes for Kathy!
Beth didn't know how she had gotten through the night in the hospital hallway with no money and no
phone to contact her friends.
She sat in the hospital hallway all night like a ghost. She was almost tormented to death by the pain of
the uterine cancer.
The next morning, she borrowed 2 dollars from a kind stranger to go home by bus.
She made herself a glass of hot milk. When she was about to take a sip, the gate of the villa was
opened.
Aaron, who had not returned overnight, came with Mrs. Johnson. Walking over to Beth, Aaron took the
milk on the table and splashed it on her face.
“How could you be so cold-blooded? You're in the mood for food!” Dora said in great misery, “Your
sister was unable to see anything. She has lost her sight! And you are eating like nothing ever
happened!”
Unfortunately, Kathy was blind for real.
Beth was frozen just for a moment. Then she wiped the milk on her face.
“You think I'm cold-blooded and conscienceless, so why can't I eat? I'll be even more ruthless. I'll buy
fireworks later to celebrate.” Dora panted in distress.
“You! You. You... Ok, fine!” she was incoherent with anger.
“Although you are my biological daughter, I won't take sides in you. It was you who blinded Kathy, so
you have to make her up by giving her your eyes!”
“You go to have the surgery when Kathy feels better!”
Shocked by Dora, Beth felt tears about to fall, but she contained it in her eyes.
Was it what she should say?
Was she really her mom?
How could her mom be so cold to her even if Beth was not raised by her.
To take her eyes to compensate an adopted daughter?
Beth stared stubbornly at her, “I don’t care. I have nothing to do with her blindness. You said I owe her,
but I was beaten to be deaf by her biological father. Should I make her pay for that?”
Dora knelt directly before Beth.
Beth threw back a few steps. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“Beth, I'm begging you. You have to pay for your mistakes. I can forgive you for what you did before
and take sides in you. But this time, I can't.”
Dora got all snotty, “Kathy is an actress. How could she live without her eyes? Why you're still lying?
She has said you pushed her!” Beth was devastated by her and staggered back.
“So? You want me to give Kathy my eyes? Why should I sacrifice for her? Why?” Beth roared in
despair.
It was ridiculous.
When did Dora take sides in her? She never had.
She only wanted Beth to compromise for her adopted daughter like what she was doing right now.
These “blind” people all believed Kathy who accused Beth for pushing her.
“Because it was you who hurt her! Because you are malicious!” Aaron helped Dora on her feet and
walked towards Beth.
The coldness in his eyes hurt her heart so badly.
“Beth Johnson, you have to do that!”
“You have no other choice!”
The instant he finished speaking, a few men in black came into the house.
Beth shook her head frantically, “Aaron, you can't do this to me! I told you I didn't push her. I don't
wanna give her my eyes. I don't wanna turn blind!”
“Take her away!”
Aaron commanded indifferently.
The cold words thoroughly crushed Beth's last glimmer of hope.
Beth spared no efforts to struggle but she failed shaking off those guards. Looking up, she pleaded with
tears welling up in eyes,”Aaron, before that, I have a secret you need to know...”
