Chapter 262 Bad Boy
"What happened?" Elly asked suspiciously, noticing Rosalyn's tiredness that it was obvious in her voice, she knew it was about her brother.
Rosalyn hesitated for a long time before opening her mouth. "I'm tired and in a bad mood. Can you come and have a word with me?"
Rosalyn paused for a few seconds and sighed. "Well, I'm so lonely. Oh, okay."
Now more special times, Elly should not go out, but her nature was easy to soften, especially to friends, she nodded in agreement. "OK, where shall we meet?"
"I'm in the hospital. You call me from the yard."
Hearing about the address, Elly could not help but worry about Rosalyn's brother and answered hurriedly. "I'll be right there."
Because it was an important matter, Gerald went to Mangrove City, and Elly drove directly to the hospital.
As she walked, she rummaged through her bag and took out her cell phone to make a phone call. She found Rosalyn sitting alone on the bench, sitting quietly under the old tree.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Rosalyn laughed, translated the person in, and then looked down at each other's intertwined hands.
Looking at the dreary appearance of Rosalyn appearance, Elly asked anxiously. "What happened? You look pale and depressed. What can I do for you?"
"It's about Justin." Rosalyn bowed her head and her voice was exhausted." I don't know what to do."
"What happened to your brother?" Knowing that her guess was correct, Elly asked quietly for fear of hearing an answer to the bad news.
Rosalyn narrowed her lips, the corners of her eyes were red, and her tone was a little disgruntled. "Justine wants to carry water and fetch more water, so he was grumpy and wishful thinking, often throwing things about and venting his anger around. My mother was tired and painful, and her blood pressure dropped badly. I told her to rest. Justin refused to take it just now. He took the medicine and smashed everything in the whole room. I cleaned it up. I was so sad that I asked you to talk to me."
When she said this, Rosalyn's eyebrows highlighted the contradictions and struggles in her heart. Elly vaguely guessed the reason, and her tone was firm.
"Haven't you told your brother about his illness?"
Receiving a nod of affirmation, Elly continued to express her thoughts. "She thinks that her brother is still young and is not psychologically ready to accept the truth about his illness, which is not sure to be a good thing. She doesn't want your brother to think that he won't live long, but she may want her friends and relatives to tell her the result directly and face the disease together."
"Justin just entered high school, is the beginning of a person's youth, there are many things that have not yet been experienced. If he knew she was ill, he couldn't bear the shock." Speaking of this, Rosalyn's face was full of tears, and her choked voice was covered by her hands.
"I really don't know what to do. I'm too useless to help my brother."
Elly understood that it was not helpful to see her relatives sick with her own eyes, so she could only pat Rosalyn on the shoulder to comfort. "God will be as kind to good people as she is. It will light up again tomorrow. Let's not lose hope."
Watching Rosalyn wipe her face and nose with a towel, an idea suddenly came to Elly's mind. "Let me talk to your brother in the room. Maybe I have a way to make him happy."
"Miss?" Rosalyn's suspicion. "Valenathan is a spoiled child. He will hurt you."
"I have a way to tame this little lion."
Rosalyn could not be persuaded, partly because she wanted to give it a try, so she took Elly to the door of the ward and told her. "You don't have to push yourself. If he's too angry, just let him wear it. It'll be all right in a few hours."
Elly smiled confidently, pushed open the door, and sneaked in. Valenathan was lying in bed reading with his back to the door. He didn't know that a second person appeared.
He was about to turn to the next page when he was startled by Elly's slight cough. He turned around and saw the surprised expression on Elly's face, but soon opened his mouth and shouted.
"Who are you? Get out of my room. Who let you in?"
"This kid was too strong! A few more meals didn't die." Hearing what she said, he threw a book hard, but she avoided it.
Elly turned her eyes from the books on the ground to Valenathan's angry expression, deliberately increasing the seriousness of his words.
"I'm Elly, hired by Miss Rosalyn to take care of her brother."
Valenathan sat up and dazzled at his annoyance. "I don't need others to take care of me. I don't know what to do. I don't have to take care of myself. Get out!"
Elly answered earnestly. "Well, you had a formal contract when you hired me. If you fire me, Ms. Rosalyn will have to pay five times as much as agreed."
"Five times? Why don't you rob?"
Valenathan shouted and Elly responded to him with a smile.
"You don't like her care, do you?"
The problem put Valeathan in an awkward position. On the one hand, he doesn't want his sister to work hard, on the other hand, he hates the outsiders around him.
Elly laughed happily in front of Valenthan's stiff face. In her eyes, he's just a kid, angry.
"Don't argue, you lie in bed obediently and let me clean up the mess you caused. Stop putting pressure on your sister."
He sat gloomily on the bed, staring at Elly's agile packing.
After some time, he kept holding on to Elly. The food was not good and the water was too hot. It was all intended to annoy Elly and let her leave of her own accord.
Elly, of course, did not commit such a childish scam, she relaxed and calmly responded, met all the requirements.
"She looked as if she had turned and ran around, and though she was out of breath and her forehead was sweaty, she did not complain or get angry," Valenathan asked without curiosity. "Don't you think I'm asking too much?"
"You have too many bridges. But I work for money, as long as Miss Rosalyn pays enough money, I will take care of any unreasonable request from you. Except for breaking the law and self-harm, of course."
Valenathan was startled by Elly's straightforward words. She can hardly see that his face is pale and his voice is normal. "The only family can treat each other with love. And outsiders like us who work are all jobs, all for the sake of wages."
Rosayn's care behavior in recent days can be clearly seen under the leadership of Elly. It turns out that only her sister can put up with an unhappy temper and did not ask her younger brother to return, because the two are relatives and family.
When he thought of this, Valenathan felt sad and regretted the loss of calmness in his attitude with Rosalyn. He secretly turned to Elly and pressed his sister's phone number.
"Valenathan, what's wrong?"
Rosalyn's love anxiety sounded, which made him feel more guilty and whispered.
"Miss, I'm sorry! I know I was wrong, you shouldn't smash things, and you shouldn't deny your concern."
Rosalyn was excited when she heard her brother admit her mistake, but she was told by Elly in advance to pretend to be still angry. "Sorry, tomorrow is the old road, isn't it?"
"No, I won't. You know how hard you try to take care of me and how much you love me. I won't lose my temper again and say bad words." Valenathan pleaded cautiously in a low voice. "Ma'am, I fired the caretaker, okay? I don't like being with strangers. I'm scared."
Curious about how Elly locked her brother in the frame, Rosalyn pretended to reluctantly agree to the inexplicable plea.
Elly received a phone call from Rosalyn. She didn't know what to say on the phone. She turned off her phone in a disgruntled and distorted voice. "You're bluffing".
With that, she quickly walked out of the room and collapsed under a heavy burden.
Elly and Rosalyn met in the room, covering their mouths and compressing their laughter.
Rosalyn gave a thumbs-up compliment. "That was a good idea."
Elly speaks the truth. "You should also let him know about his illness and tide over the difficulties together, so that family feelings will be more precious."
This sentence was interrupted by the hug of Rosalyn, saying thank you through action, which is self-evident.
"Would you like to have lunch with me? There is a lot of delicious food in the hospital, which will satisfy you."
Elly thought of Alex's advice. She also went out for a long time and shook her head and refused.
Rosalyn was also aware of the current situation, so she does not dare to urge it.
Leave me alone, take care of his brother, and leave him alone.
Elly walked into the elevator and her smile soon disappeared. Her heart sagged when she thought of Valenathan's illness. His face was always pale, without his vitality, you know that if he doesn't change his heart as soon as possible, he will.
As she sniffed out the sneeze, she tried to adjust her mood and told her to show Alex what he could do.
The elevator opened and the cry behind her stopped her.
"Madeline, do you really not recognize me?"
