A hoarse low growl spilled from his throat.
Matilda froze in place, her fingertips still hanging in the air.
She looked at the man’s profile as he turned to the other side, the new bruise peeking out from under the bandage.
Suddenly, Matilda seemed to realize something.
She suddenly turned her head, her eyes locked onto Andrea standing beside her.
“Andrea!”
She approached aggressively in high heels.
“It’s you again!”
Matilda grabbed Andrea’s shoulder, her nails almost digging into the flesh.
“Every time I see you, something bad happens. This time, Roderick got into trouble because of you, right? What are you up to?”
Andrea was caught and it hurt like hell, she frowned and tried to break free, but Matilda held her tight.
“You let go of me!”
Matilda wouldn’t stop, her voice sharp.
“You disaster! Why do you still have to show up in front of Roderick!”

Roderick on the sickbed frowned and whispered a warning.
“Matilda…”
The conversation wasn’t finished when a sudden fit of coughing hit.
He covered his mouth, blood oozed out through his fingers.
Andrea saw the situation, her heart tightened, didn’t even care that Matilda was still holding onto her, she forcefully shook her off, finally breaking free from her grasp.
She walked quickly to the bed, wanting to check on Roderick.
Matilda saw Roderick still defending Andrea at this moment, her jealousy and anger completely exploded.
She rushed a few steps behind Andrea and pulled her away.
“You still have the nerve to approach him? Look at what you’ve done to him!”
Matilda stood with her hands on her hips, a look of disdain in her eyes.
“Don’t forget, you guys are siblings! Do you really think you can be together? Dream on!”
“He was going to get engaged to me, the Turner family had already talked to the Hodgson family, you guys are doomed! How long are you going to cling to him?”
“Matilda!”
Roderick roared, his eyes filled with malice.
Andrea stood firm, turned around, and gave Matilda a cold stare.
“It’s none of your business.”

Matilda seemed to not hear Roderick’s warning, and kept getting closer to Andrea.
“I suggest you stay away from him as soon as possible, don’t get entangled anymore, otherwise…”
“That’s enough!”
Roderick was panting heavily, his chest heaving unevenly.
“Matilda… get out of here right now!”
Matilda bit her lower lip unwillingly.
“Roderick, I’m doing this for your own good! Look at her, she’s not even worth you defending like this!”
“Get out!”
Roderick’s voice was trembling, obviously reaching its limit.
Andrea gritted her teeth, unwilling to continue this farce with them.
“You guys go ahead, I’m not joining anymore.”
She angrily turned around and left. Just as she opened the door, she heard the sound of metal clashing behind her:
Roderick hurriedly pulled out the IV needle from his arm, blood dripping down his pale hand.
He staggered up from the sickbed, and the monitor blared loudly.
“Andie!”
Matilda screamed and pounced.
“Roderick, you’re crazy!”

She grabbed his bleeding arm in panic, turned and screamed at the door.
“Andrea, it’s all because of you! Are you happy now? Did you have to push him until he couldn’t take it anymore?”
“Shut up.”
Roderick gritted his teeth, shook off Matilda’s hand, and stumbled towards the door.
Andrea ran out of the ward and bumped into Scarlett at the corner of the hallway.
“Andie, why are you in such a rush? What’s going on?”
Scarlett looked at her daughter’s pale face and asked, Are you okay?
Andrea pretended to be calm, forcing out a small smile.
