Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
“Hey, Miss, you have just gotten out of danger. Don’t agitate yourself. Your wound will tear…”
“He’s a deranged man! Please help me get rid of him. If he doesn’t leave, I will!”
Flossie clutched the deep wound around her leg and ran toward the door desperately.
She did not want to linger there for even a minute. She was afraid that she would go berserk and kill that maniac if she stayed there any longer.
“Sir, the patient is emotionally unstable. You must leave now.”
While supporting Flossie, the nurse raised a forceful request at Jovan.
“Well, then. I’ll go now. Please take good care of her. If she’s hurt even a tiny bit, I’ll make all of the staff here pay.”
Shrugging, Jovan appeared to be half joking. He then turned around and left the ward.
“Miss, how are you feeling now? Can you breathe properly?”
The nurse considerately supported Flossie and helped her to lie in bed. She then asked nervously.
“I won’t die as long as that maniac isn’t around.”
She took deep breaths and clenched her fists.
She would be deeply infuriated if that man still lingered on.
“That’s a surprise! I thought your husband love you very much. When you were sent to the ER, he was sick with worry. He nearly got into a fight with the hospital staff. I didn’t expect…”
The nurse shook her head and sighed.
However, Flossie was flabbergasted. “Husband?!”
“That’s right. He’s your husband, isn’t he? He sighed his name as your husband on the hospitalization document.”
“That paranoid pervert! I can’t take it anymore. I’m going to kill him!”
She had just calmed down, but she became infuriated again. Her wrath intensified tenfold.
‘Well, Jovan is indeed something. He can always infuriate him in various kinds of ways.
‘If he’s still alive, I won’t be able to live for long!’
At that time, Margaret rushed into the ward in worry. Her eyes were watery as she held Flossie’s hands. “Miss Flossie, I’m late! How are you feeling?”
“Err, Margaret. Why… did you come?”
Flossie panicked a bit. She wanted to cover her leg injury.
“Stop covering that. You make me so worried!”
Margaret hugged Flossie and started crying violently. “I know what silly things you did. How silly you are! You jumped into the river for an unworthy man. Have you ever thought about your two kids, Mr. Ellsworth and even me? If anything happens to you, I won’t be able to answer for it even if I pay a heavy price!”
“I’m sorry, Margaret. I was impulsive, so I didn’t think so far. Don’t worry. I’m all right. It’s nothing serious. It’ll cure in two days. It’s just a minor affair!”
Flossie patted her chest in a carefree manner.
“That’s no minor affair! That’s the river around the city, and it’s so high. There are jagged rocks at the bottom, and if you aren’t careful, you could be smashed into mush. You would have regretted it very much then!”
“Okay, got it. I won’t be so impulsive now. After all, I’m your adorable kid. I want to listen to you.”
After that, she made funny faces at Margaret, just like what she did during her childhood. At last, she made Margaret laugh.
“But how did you learn about this?”
Flossie always held back unpleasant news. Of course, she would keep this affair a secret and never expose it to her family so they would not be worried.
“The guy named Jovan told me.”
When Margaret mentioned the Guajardo family, her face sank immediately. She was full of despise for them. “He told me that you jumped into the river to save Halston, and you were on the verge of dying. He asked me to come to this ward to you so I can take good care of you. I found he isn’t a good man from what he said.”
“Yes, he’s indeed not a good man. Just ignore him from now on.”
When Flossie found that she could no longer keep it a secret, she had no choice but to tell Margaret the truth, including how Francine and Seraphine plotted against her and how she escaped danger before she dived into the river.
“Margaret, you came in time. I want to ask if you have any idea what The Albus Order is. Why did those people claim that member after they saw the herbal sachet you sewed for me? Not only did they let me go, but they vowed to work for me.”
“Er, that…”
Margaret averted her gaze as if she found it hard to broach.
“Just tell me. You’ve been working for me for so many years, and you’re even the nanny Grandma purposely appointed for me. You’re like my second parent. You don’t have to hide anything from me.”
Flossie could tell that Margaret found it difficult to broach, so she tried her best to eliminate her psychological pressure.
“Alas, Miss Flossie, it’s not that I want to keep it a secret, but this affair is a bit embarrassing. Before my grandfather died, he asked me not to get involved in it. In short, I’ve got to blame myself. Why didn’t I sew another pattern instead of the symbol of The Albus Order…”
Margaret’s words made Flossie more curious.
“So, you do know about The Albus Order, so… is your grandfather the leader of The Albus Order?”
Flossie had long heard from her mother that Margaret was born into a medical family. Margaret’s great- grandfather was exceptionally good at medical skills. So, Margaret followed his family’s steps and was good at curing difficult diseases.
When she was pregnant with Adie and Abby, her body became quite weak, so she had the risk of a miscarriage. She relied on Margaret’s medicine solely to protect her children well until she was able to give birth to them.
“No, that’s not so.”
She heaved a long sigh and said slowly, “The leader of The Albus Order is my father instead of my grandfather, but he had long been driven out of the Middleton family. My grandpa even announced to the public that my father was dead, but he is in fact leading a secluded life. He no longer cares about worldly affairs, but The Albus Order he founded is very famous in the world. It also saved a lot of seriously ill people.”
“What? Your father is the leader of The Albus Order?”
Flossie widened her eyes in deep amazement.
Flossie knew little about The Albus Order, but she heard that it was a mysterious organization that enjoyed a strangely high status in the medical world.
Many patients who failed to be cured by conventional medical science would recover at last as long as they gained the treatment from The Albus Order.
Besides, the leader of The Albus Order generally would not appear. If he did, it would be an extraordinary case. He was best at snatching back souls from the Grim Reaper. His exceptional medical skills could only be explained with metaphysics.
It was rumored that the leader of The Albus Order would not easily treat a patient. He did not even take in disciples or ask about worldly affairs. He was even said to be no longer alive.
Unexpectedly, Margaret’s biological father was such a famous and magical figure. Well, what a great coincidence!
“Margaret, you’re very awesome. Your father is so excellent. No wonder your medical skills are so exceptional. It’s a waste of your talent to let you be my subordinate all this while. I’m sure you’ll inherit The Albus Order in the future, right?”
Flossie looked at Margaret in admiration as if she was looking up to an outstanding physician descended from heaven.
