Robin's politeness didn't win Amy's affection for him.
Her life had changed dramatically overnight. Though she was strong and tough, she was hurt deeply and couldn't trust anyone right now.
"About what?" Amy asked with distrust.
"Miss Miller. You need a lot of money, right? For your father's operation? And you were abandoned by your husband? Are you going to do nothing and let him enjoy his life?" Robin described Amy's trouble and misery one by one.
"So what? Are you coming to laugh at me?" She stared at Robin, wondering why he knew so much about her.
"Not at all. On the contrary, I'm here to help you. We can cooperate with each other. If you marry my master, all these problems will be solved instantly." Robin answered calmly.
He must be joking, right? She just got divorced and then a stranger came to propose her for his master? Why? What kind of weirdo would do such a thing? He didn't have a better choice?
"Is your master disabled physically?" Amy asked.
"No. He's strong and healthy." Robin replied.
"Then he's disabled mentally or he's blind?" Amy continued.
"Neither. My master is intelligent and healthy both physically and mentally. May I know why you asked these questions?" Now Robin thought Amy was not only messy but also weird. She should feel so lucky that someone offered to pay the medical expense for her dad and accept it at once. But she kept asking weird questions.
Stephen looked so pale in bed. He was just lying there so quietly. But for the sign showing his heartbeat on the device, he looked much more like dead.
"Miss Miller. The doctor just said you must pay the medical bill now. Or they will stop treating him..." her voice became lower and lower.
Amy already knew this. If she couldn't pay the bill, her dad would be discharged later, which meant he was sentenced to death. Amy wanted to cry, but what was the point? She must stay strong and find a solution.
Her dad was all she got now. She couldn't let him leave her. What could she do now?
She was willing to do anything.
