Chapter 101 - Back to New York
Chapter 101: Back to New York
Three days later, Mary was finally discharged from the hospital.
The bruises on her face had mostly disappeared, and only the wound on her leg, which was still bandaged, needed time to fully heal.
Because of the injury on Mary’s leg, when she was discharged from the hospital, Hugh brought her a wheelchair.
After packing everything up, the three of them prepared to return to London.
Since Hugh did not fly, the three of them had to choose to drive again.
Hugh sat in the passenger seat, Herman drove, and Mary occupied the spacious seat in the back.
When they left the city, Mary kept looking out of the window.
Philadelphia was still as prosperous as ever, not affected by the volcanic eruption at all.
Unlike Warren City, although the rain had finally stopped and the rescue team had finally allocated members to help the downtown area, the losses and deaths in Warren City had long been incalculable figures!
Hearth National Park had been completely destroyed.
The nearby towns and residents had no survivors.
Further away, the earthquake’s aftermath was more serious.
It was said that only Warren City had suffered from the rain and flood!
This was all information that Mary had obtained from lying in the hospital these days.
Looking at the images on the screen, and now lying in a comfortable and clean bed, she suddenly realized that the experiences of the past few days were really just like a dream.
“Do you want to listen to music?” Hugh turned around and asked Mary.
The past few days, Hugh had been visiting Mary in the hospital almost every day. His purpose was very simple. He wanted to know what had happened to Mary after they got separated in Rock Town. Hugh said that he might have some inspiration for writing after hearing it, however, Mary just kept quiet.
Hugh had used all kinds of methods to provoke her, but he could not get Mary to open her mouth.
He was so angry that he even scolded Mary, “When you live with me for a month, I’ll teach you a lesson!”
Mary knew that Hugh was all bark and no bite. He looked fierce on the surface, but he was actually not bad to his sister.
He had bought her the most advanced wheelchair, carried her up and down, knew that she was bored in the hospital, and often went over to quarrel with her to quell that boredom.
This disastrous trip seemed to have really brought them closer as siblings.
On the other hand, although Herman had been taking care of her body these days, he was always cold.
Mary knew that with Herman’s status, taking care of a patient like her was simply overkill. However, Herman still waited for her to recover before returning to New York.
“Whatever, I want to listen to Nelson’s song!”
Hugh growled and rolled his eyes, “Tch! What’s so good about his song!”
However, he still played it obediently.
Mary rested her chin on her hand and listened to the music. She watched the scenery as she leisurely returned to New York.
When she arrived in New York, the sky was already dark.
New York was very big, and it would take two to three hours to cross the city.
Therefore, Mary was arranged to rest at Hugh’s house in the south of the city tonight. Herman also slept in another guest room.
Mary was carried out of the car and put in a wheelchair. Then she went home, ate, and washed up. Mary took care of everything herself.
As the sixth son of the Hall family, Hugh’s house was not a big villa, it was in fact, a 260-square-foot super-large flat that spanned the entire floor instead! It was high-end and luxurious, and left Mary speechless!
Mary’s guest room also had a separate bathroom and closet. There was also a small changing room, and it was far from the master bedroom, so it was relatively private.
Hugh actually said, “When you come, we’ll stay here!”
Mary heard him say something else. “Do you have another house?” She asked.
Herman was making steak for them. When he heard her speak, he looked up and said calmly, “He collects over 100 million in royalties every year.”
So, how could there only be one house?!
Mary was shocked and she sighed dejectedly. “I really thought you were the poorest. I didn’t expect to be proven a clown!”
