The medical expenses of Annie cost hundreds of thousands of yuan every month. She had no idea when her research progress would have breakthrough. It was impossible to rely on Mr. Knight for the rest of her life.
She also needed to earn more money.
Besides, she was allowed to work part-time every week, which was hard to come by.
"Cooper, you are right, I should not give up this job. I'll come to work every weekend. Thank you."
When Georgia returned home, she told Vanessa about her decision.
"Georgia, since you have made up your mind, I have nothing to say, but you must protect yourself."
Georgia nodded and she asked Vanessa.
"Did you still get rejected?"
Vanessa sighed.
"All of my resumes have gone nowhere. Alfred was just an ordinary person before. I don't know why he's so powerful now."
"What are you going to do, Vanessa? Shall I ask Mr. Knight to give you a job?"
Vanessa immediately shook her head.
"You already have asked Mr. Knight to help you a lot. If you ask him to give me a job, he might think we are greedy and shameless, just forget it."
Georgia felt it was the truth.
However, Vanessa had talent in fashion design and she really didn't want Vanessa to waste her talent.
"Georgia, let me take some time off. If I really can't find a job related to fashion design, I will change my career."
It made Georgia sad.
She wanted to say something, but Vanessa looked at Georgia with a frown.
"Georgia, you look like losing weight. I will take out the weight scale, and you weigh yourself."
Georgia was to refuse, but Vanessa went straight inside and came back a few seconds later with the scale in her hand.
"Georgia, stand up and weigh."
Georgia had no choice but stand up. It was 39 kilos.
"Vanessa, I'm fine. I've just lost a little weight."
"What do you mean you are fine! Georgia, you were 45 kilos, but now you are just 39 kilo, you will get sick!"
Vanessa frowned and said with disapproval.
"You must eat at once. Georgia, I will cook for you immediately."
With that, Vanessa took Georgia directly out of the house to buy food.
They went to the supermarket in the community. Vanessa pushed a cart and picked vegetables. Georgia silently followed her.
She dared to tell Vanessa that she had serious problems in eating.
No matter what she ate, she could not swallow it.
Even if she forced herself to eat it, she would uncontrollably rush to the toilet and spit it out.
That was why she had been losing weight so fast recently.
Georgia was not willing to put her body in a weak condition. And she knew she had to protect Annie.
But there was nothing she could do about the fact that she could not swallow the food.
They bought two potatoes, a cabbage, green peppers and eggplant, plus some seasoning.
Vanessa then bought a fish, chops, and some chicken legs.
And then they pushed a cart to the cashier.
However, after few steps, they ran into Rachel who was shopping.
Georgia wanted to pull Vanessa to one side did not want her to be hurt by Rachel.
That woman was a white lotus flower, and Georgia knew it very well.
"Miss Lane, Miss Cooke, long time no see."
Rachel came over and greeted them. Vanessa subconsciously seized Georgia's palm.
Georgia could feel Vanessa's hand shaking.
"Hello, Miss Scott."
Trying to control her emotions, Vanessa greeted Rachel politely.
Rachel raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"I heard you were fired from your job, Miss Cooke. See, that's what you got for abandoning Alfred! And your adopted daughter is in a coma. You are being punished by God."
"Rachel!"
Georgia roared angrily.
"Don't think I won't hit you, stop speaking nonsense!"
Instead, Rachel laughed mockingly at Georgia.
"Miss Lane, how ridiculous you are now. You'd been in prison and your daughter has a heart attack. You're a complete loser. But you killed people, you should blame yourself that you daughter got sick. Even if your daughter dies, this is your retribution."
Georgia's eyes instantly turned scarlet, and she clenched her fists, gritting her teeth.
"You can say that again!"
"Georgia, everyone knows that you have done! You killed a person and gave birth to a child in prison. After you were out from prison, you seduced your sister's fiance, trying to steal him. What's more, you made a fake paternity test and deceived him that your daughter is his daughter. All classmates have known your shameless thing. I am just telling the truth. What can do you?"
"Your daughter is in a coma. This is the retribution for all your wrongs!"
Rachel was particularly arrogant and her eyes were full of ridicule!
Georgia felt furious. She got mad and rushed to Rachel and gave a slap on her face. And then she grabbed her face and beat her.
Georgia had lost too much weight and was not in good physical condition, so she did not have too much strength.
Rachel was to win.
Vanessa hurried to control Rachel's body.
So two of them beat Rachel together. Rachel became angry from surprise and in the end begged crying.
However, with more anger in heart, Georgia beat Rachel ruthlessly.
When the police came, Rachel's face had become a pig head and there were scratches all over her body.
There were monitors in the supermarket, and it showed that Georgia was the one started the fight. Rachel would not forgive her and wished to beat her back.
Finally, the three were taken to the police station.
At first, the police advised Georgia to apologize and make a peace privately.
But Rachel had to have her wound test and wanted to send Georgia to prison.
And Georgia, had no intention to apologize.
The worst result was to stay in prison for few days and she was ok with that.
But she felt guilty that Vanessa was in prison too.
"Vanessa, sorry to drag you down."
Vanessa laughed out loud.
