Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Signing the Divorce (4)

"It’s not a major problem, just a small injury." Xavier Estrada didn’t like Joyce Lopez. Rather than saying that he didn’t like Joyce, it would be more accurate to say that he disliked all those women who harbored ill will towards Bryan Hawkins, except for Carolline Ruiz.

He didn’t know why he liked Carolline so much, but he truly believed that apart from Carolline, no other woman could be as pure-hearted to Bryan as she was.

"That’s good. I have no more questions. I have to get back to work, Mr. Estrada. I’ll leave now." After saying this, Carolline turned around and walked slowly and clumsily forward.

Xavier wanted to catch up with her and ask Bryan some questions that he couldn’t bring himself to ask. He intended to do so, but after just two steps, he saw Andy Aguirre coming out of an office building and smiling as he walked towards Carolline.

The two of them were talking to each other, and Andy naturally held Carolline’s arm. Xavier’s legs stopped dead in their tracks, and he didn’t know what to say about this harmonious scene.

Xavier reported the results when he returned, and Joyce had already been discharged from the hospital.

The Hawkins Family members have also arrived. At Jack Lopez’s suggestion, both parties met in the Emperory’s VIP Lounge for a discussion. Jack had a somewhat aggressive attitude, as if the Hawkins Family had to give them an explanation or else they would take matters further.

"Uncle Hawkins, Auntie Hawkins, Joyce is a girl, and this kind of scar will be left on her body. What will she do in the future?" The wife of Jonathan Lopez saw that the Hawkins family members were very calm, especially the old lady. She even seemed somewhat disdainful, so she stood up discontentedly and spoke to the elderly couple.

"Let me tell you, the scar removal surgery in H Country is very advanced. When there really is a scar left, my old lady will pay for it, and we will send Joyce to have the surgery." The elderly Mrs. Hawkins spoke directly, not showing any fear or arrogance, and not behaving as if they owed the Lopez Family any favor.

"Auntie Hawkins, isn’t that a bit too insensitive?" Mrs. Lopez was furious. So they’ve made such a fuss, and after her daughter suffered like this, the Hawkins Family isn’t planning to take responsibility?

"Insensitive? Well, according to Mrs. Lopez, what do you hope for us to do?" Old Mrs. Hawkins squinted her eyes. Since they didn’t accept her suggestion, what did they mean? They should just speak up.

"I..." Mrs. Lopez knew that if they, as the girl’s family, were to bring up the matter of marriage first, then Joyce’s value would obviously decrease. In the future, when her daughter was treated poorly by her in-laws, she would not be respected either.

"If Mrs. Lopez cannot say it, then let’s have Jonathan speak up. We are all a little ignorant, and if you don’t directly state your compensation plan, we can only guess slowly. How long will this take, isn’t that right, Mr. Lopez?" Old Mrs. Hawkins looked at the old patriarch next to her. Her words were already quite clear.

If the Hawkins family were to guess, they might never guess what the Lopez family members were thinking. So it was better to let them state it directly. That was also what old Mrs. Hawkins meant. She wanted to see just how shameless the Lopez family members could be.

"Old Hawkins, I, Old Lopez, will also speak plainly." Jack Lopez understood that the old Mrs. Hawkins had been like this since she was young. They couldn’t compete with her as a family, "The reason why Joyce took the knife for Bryan was because of her feelings for him all these years. In the past, we all thought it was just a playful act, but now as a grandfather, I’ve come to understand her true feelings. She has liked Bryan for so many years. If Bryan doesn’t have someone he likes, why not fulfill Joyce’s wish? Although times have changed, back in the day, didn’t we also follow the orders of the patriarch? Didn’t you two old people also live happily together for a lifetime?"
