Chapter 155
Mason liked Zoe. He cared about her deeply.
Suddenly, Lilith went insane.
She ripped off the blood transfusion tube, and fresh blood flowed from her emaciated hand.
However, she didn't care.
Her face was full of indignation.
"If it weren't for your mother, you would have married me. Mason, do you think she just innocently orchestrated that accident? No, she did much
more.
"She arranged for me to marry a vulgar man, the kind who beats his wife to death. Once, he beat me so badly that I bled below, and by the time I was rushed to the hospital, it was too late. I had to have something removed from inside me, and now I can never conceive. I became disabled. "Meanwhile, Mrs. Zoe, your dear wife, was pampered and kept in the house. I envied her. It's unfair that I didn't get what I deserved. The title of Mrs. Lockwood should have been mine."
After saying that, she trembled all over. She murmured, "What did I do wrong to be treated like this?"
Mason silently watched her.
After a while, he turned and opened the window, letting the night wind blow away the smell of blood in the ward. Behind him, Lilith coughed violently from the wind, but Mason paid no attention.
He stared at the laurel tree, and in a low and hoarse voice, he said, "I'll give you seven million and arrange for you to go abroad for treatment. After that, I don't want to see you or your parents in Brookesville ever again."
Mason made his decision and didn't linger.
As he left the ward, Lilith sat on the bed, crying bitterly, calling his name, but he didn't look back.
After a while, Ava came in and handed her a check.
Lilith trembled all over. "Why is he treating me like this?"
After a moment of silence, Ava gave her an answer, "In three years of marriage, he was loved passionately by someone. Even the toughest heart softens. Ms. Lilith, if you're smart, take the money and leave. Give your parents a good life in their old age."
As Ava left, she sighed.
Mason might not understand love, but he seems to have fallen in love with Zoe.
Mason had just come downstairs when he saw a luxurious black SUV parked outside, the car window half down.
Inside sat Lisa.
The night wind howled, and the mother and son looked at each other with unfamiliar and icy eyes.
After a while, Mason walked over, opened the car door, and sat next to her.
He stared straight ahead, his voice suppressed and restrained. "You brought Zoe to me but also set up such a melodramatic show for Lilith, making me feel guilty for a lifetime. Is it because of Westley? Is it because you couldn't get a hold of your husband, so you don't want me to be happy either? Mom? Mrs. Lisa... What am I to you?"
Lisa was arrogant. "Emotions are the most useless thing!"
She looked at her son. "I know you really like Zoe. Just spoil her. Don't invest any real emotions in her."
"It's too late." Mason stared at her glamorous face and slowly said, like her! She walked out of the house with her suitcase, and my feelings were exactly the same as when you watched Westley leave years ago."
"Mason!"
However, Mason opened the car door and got out.
In the wind, he lit a cigarette, and the thin
smoke exhaled a thin wisp of

He couldn't have come this far if he hadn't been ruthless and shown a hint of weakness.
