She thought it was because of her cancer.
The bleeding wasn’t much, and it could’ve been a throat
problem.
She suddenly got a bit nervous, and her gestures became more
anxious: “Will it affect the recovery of my vocal cords?”
“Don’t be scared, I wouldn’t let anything happen to you, we
went to the hospital now!”
Bethany went out with Julio.
He got to a hospital. As soon as Julio walked in, someone greeted
him and called him Director.
Bethany signed in surprise, “You were the director of this
hospital?”
A really big hospital.
“Yeah.”
He wasn’t weak, just because he had the Mendez Group behind
him. He wasn’t the one in charge of the Mendez Group right
Chapter 297
now, and his family wouldn’t let him go against the McConnell
Group just for a woman.
As for what Terrence said that day about one fist being worth a
billion…
Terrence didn’t do anything.
Maybe he just wanted to threaten Bethany to go back.
Bethany signed, “You really got better and better. I’m really
happy for you.”
Julio wasn’t happy at all, because there was still the Mendez
family behind him, and he still had to be under their control.
Bethany didn’t want to get him involved, so he had no way to
protect her openly.
He gave a bitter smile, “I’m not as great as you said.”
“In my heart, you were really already great. Don’t overthink
other things, I understood everything.”
Bethany gently comforted him with a gesture.
She knew exactly why. Terrence’s actions really hurt people’s
feelings.
Threatened Julio with the Mendez Group, Julio seemed a bit
passive. In a man’s world, it was hard not to feel like he lost to
Terrence.
If it wasn’t because I wanted to help her, these things wouldn’t
have happened at all.
They had known each other since they were kids. In front of
her, with things turning out like that, he definitely felt a bit
embarrassed.
But Bethany didn’t care about any of that at all.
Julio didn’t say much either. Once Bethany and Terrence got
divorced and cut all ties, none of this was a big deal anymore.
The most important thing now was to help her treat her throat.
It was rare for him to leave Rivermond, so he could spend more
time with her for the treatment. Being able to schedule a
minimally invasive surgery as soon as possible would help her
recovery exercises.
After Julio took Bethany for a thorough checkup, it turned out
her throat really had been hurt by some external force, and it
had even bled.
They had just gotten back to Julio’s office, and he hugged
Bethany right away.

If it wasn’t for the cut at the corner of Bethany’s mouth and the finger marks on her cheek, even with the results from checking her throat, he wouldn’t have known what she’d been through.
My heart was almost bleeding.
That bastard Terrence actually treated her like that!
Julio cared a lot about Bethany and couldn’t stand to see her
hurt, but he kept her on a tight leash.
The person in his arms felt a bit of pain and struggled a few
times, then Julio let go of her in a panic.
Bethany raised her hand and asked him, “What’s wrong with
you?”
Julio’s eyes turned red and he trembled, saying nervously,
“Seeing your throat all red and swollen, and knowing you’ve
been in pain for so long, it made me feel really bad.”
But Bethany just smiled gently.
For her, being able to get over the past, even though it hurt a lot,
was actually a pretty good outcome.
