Chapter 608 - Are You Satisfied?
Opening Chapter 608 of "No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother": Sophia Bennett listened to the doctorâs words, standing behind Mother Bennett, and cautiously asked, "What... Read on for more!
Sophia Bennett listened to the doctorâs words, standing behind Mother Bennett, and cautiously asked, "What if there is more blood clotting?"The doctor glanced at Sophia and calmly said, "If more blood clots form and the patient doesnât wake up, he might remain like this for the rest of his life."
The implication of the doctorâs words was that if James Bennett couldnât wake up, he might become a vegetative state.
Sophia continued to ask, "So when exactly will my uncle wake up?"
"We canât say for sure, it could be three to five days, or three to five years, depending on the patientâs recovery, we can only assist with medication."
Maya Spencer listened to the doctorâs report, stunned. She hadnât thought that her accidental push would cause James Bennett to lie there potentially for life. Maya couldnât accept this; it wasnât the outcome she wanted. She never thought of punishing James in this way.
This wasnât punishment for James at all; it was punishing her, making her feel awful, unable to find peace ever again.
Mayaâs back was pressed tightly against the wall; she wanted to escape, stepping back desperately, but the hard wall behind her left her with no escape.
Sophia, hearing the doctorâs explanation, suddenly exploded. She turned sharply and charged at Maya, grabbing her by the collar and angrily questioned, "Are you satisfied? Satisfied now? Maya, what did my uncle ever do to you that you want him dead?"
Maya, hearing Sophiaâs questioning, didnât know how to respond. She just kept shaking her head, as if explaining that she didnât do it on purpose.
Sophia looked at Mayaâs stupefied appearance, grabbed her collar, and slammed her against the wall, questioning, "What do you want to do? What do you want?"
"Let go!" Liam Spencer grabbed Sophiaâs wrist, telling her to let go.
However, Sophia didnât care about Liamâs orders at all and continued to slam Maya. For a moment, Maya was dazed by the impact, but she didnât know how to resist or push Sophia away.
Liam watched the two girls before him, one acting crazy, the other terrified, and his head ached. He immediately increased the pressure on Sophiaâs wrist, wishing he could crush her bones.
But with anger clouding her judgment, Sophia couldnât feel the pain. She just wanted revenge for her uncle, demanding an explanation from Maya for why she had attacked him.
Liam, seeing that Sophia ignored his warning, suddenly pulled her small hand away from Mayaâs clothes. The button on Mayaâs clothes, with a "pop," fell to the ground, bouncing several times, making a sound that was enough to calm people.
Mother Bennett looked at the furious Sophia and quickly pulled her away, glaring straight at Maya without uttering a word of reproach.
Because she knew that even if her brother woke up, he wouldnât blame Maya.
"Maya, Iâll take you home first." Liam, fearing that Maya would get more upset, suggested taking her home first.
Maya did not respond. At this moment, she couldnât hear anything except the doctorâs words from earlier, saying that James Bennett might never wake up.
So, the only thought in Mayaâs mind was that if her father killed her mother, and she killed her father, it was an extremely unhealthy thought.
Liam, seeing that Maya was stupefied, hastily grabbed her wrist and took her away.
Sophia watched as Maya was taken away openly by Liam, crying in anger. She wiped her tears while pulling out her phone, saying, "Maya harmed my uncle like this; how can we let her walk away? I want to call the police, have them arrest her."
Unable to avenge her uncle or get an explanation she desired, she decided to call the police, turn Maya over to them, and let them handle it.
Mother Bennett saw this and snatched Sophiaâs phone, saying distressingly, "The concern now is not this, but when your uncle will wake up."
The incident happened too suddenly, and Mother Bennett hadnât even had the chance to accept it.
But, she held onto a belief that her brother wouldnât sleep forever. He just met Maya, found out he has a daughter, and sheâs the daughter of him and Madelyn Hansonâhow could he bear to sleep like this? He would definitely wake up and live happily with this daughter.
Sophia, seeing her phone taken away, started crying loudly.
She felt so wronged, also feeling the injustice for her uncle, not understanding why everyone would protect Maya after she did such a horrible thing.
And so, while wiping her tears, she said, "I just want to call the police. You all fear the third young master, but Iâm not afraid. I must get an explanation for my uncle. We canât let Maya roam free, because if my uncle doesnât wake up, sheâll be a murderer."
Sophia, who had been close to her uncle since childhood, really couldnât understand how her mother could tolerate her own brother being bullied like this; it wasnât in her motherâs character.
Mother Bennett, aside from worrying about her brother, also cared about Maya, her mind a mess, unable to think clearly. So, she wanted nothing more than to calm down and plan after seeing her brotherâs condition in a couple of days.
Therefore, she frowned and seriously said, "Maya is your uncleâs biological daughter. The two of them definitely had a quarrel about this incident. The girl accidentally pushed your uncle."
Although Mother Bennett wasnât at the scene, she could tell from Mayaâs frightened expression earlier that she truly hadnât meant to do it; Maya was also terrified.
"What?" Sophia, hearing that Maya is her uncleâs daughter, widened her eyes in shock, and her tears suddenly stopped.
"When we were children, we were neighbors with her mother. Your uncle was head over heels for her mother, never marrying his whole life because of Madelyn Hanson. This girl resembles your uncle a bit, and she must be your uncleâs daughter, without a doubt," Mother Bennett calmly analyzed.
She still remembered back then, when her brother would call Madelyn at least a hundred times a day, carry her school bag for her, help with her homework, always thinking of her for any good thing. She, as his biological sister, never got such treatment.
Sophia listened to her motherâs analysis, dumbfounded, never imagining, not in a thousand thoughts, that Maya would be her cousin. She was utterly astonished, finally understanding why her mother hadnât reprimanded Maya.
Suddenly, Sophia felt as if she were dreaming, an unimaginable dream, and she hoped more than anything that her uncleâs injury was also just a dream.
"Donât stand here daydreaming, go to the ward and talk to your uncle more these days, so he wakes up soon." Mother Bennett firmly believed that James Bennett would wake up, for Maya.
Meanwhile, inside Liamâs car, Maya sat in the passenger seat, biting her lower lip tightly, not saying a word, nor knowing what to say.
