Chapter 87 Don't Be Mean To Her
Looking at the figures of Audrey Turnah and Jerry Dank, Elizabeth Coker disappeared into the rainy night, her nails almost digging into her palms.
It was impossible to tell whether it was resentment, jealousy, or anger in her eyes.
She almost wanted to rush over hysterically to stop Jerry Dank, but in the end, she held back forcefully.
Elizabeth Coker drove back to Vanity Villa. Henry Dank was playing with a puppy, when he looked up and saw Elizabeth Coker, he was surprised.
"Elizabeth, what's wrong with you?" He asked.
Elziabeth's face was full of tears, her eyes were red from crying.
"Uncle Dank, Audrey Turnah is back," she told Henry Dank.
She told him about the scene when she met Audrey Turnah just now, and cried.
"It is because of her in the past few years that Jerry became what he is now, but she didn't die at all, and she lied to all of us..." Elizabeth Coker said.
Henry Dank was shocked.
Audrey Turnah, not only didn't die, but came back, did she find Jerry?
The next day was Saturday, and Audrey Turnah didn't have to go to school, so she read medical professional books at home for a day.
She just had dinner in the evening and was about to call home when an unfamiliar number called.
"Miss Turnah?" The voice on the other end was slow.
"I'm Henry Dank," the voice said.
Audrey Turnah's hands trembled, and the phone almost dropped.
"Dank...Hello, Mr. Dank..." Audrey cried.
"I heard that you have returned to Bullen City and are treating Jerry?" Mr. Dank asked.
Henry Dank's tone was as if Audrey Turnah had never "died" at all.
"Jerry will return to his home tonight, Miss Turnah, you will be there to treat him just in time. I also want to meet you and ask about Jerry's condition,'' Henry Dank said to Audrey.
Audrey Turnah bit her lip.
"...Okay,'' she hummed.
Henry Dank's attitude was quite polite.
"If possible, can you arrive half an hour earlier than the agreed treatment time?" He asked.
Audrey Turnah was silent for a while.
"I will try my best,'' she replied.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come over, and I'll send the address to your phone right away," Henry Dank said again.
After hanging up the phone, Henry Dank quickly sent her the address of Dank's family Villa.
This place was not far from the original Turnah family villa, it was only a few buildings away.
Audrey Turnah looked at the address with complicated emotions.
She really didn't want to see Henry Dank.
She still remembered that year, when she went to send materials to Jerry Dank at night, Henry Dank had a very bad attitude, scolded her for being a bad person, said that Jerry Dank didn't like her at all, and wanted her to be more self-aware in the future, anyway, how ugly those words were .
The grievance of that night was still fresh in Audrey Turnah's memory, so much so that when she thought of Henry Dank, she felt guilty from the bottom of her heart.
However, if Jerry Dank returned to his family Villa tonight, then she had to go, and the treatment could not be interrupted.
Audrey Turnah stepped into the gate of Dank's villa almost with a heart full of apprehension.
Then, she saw Henry Dank sitting in a wheelchair, and next to him, Elizabeth Coker with a cold expression.
Maybe it was because he had been pampered so much these past years, Henry Dank's expression was much calmer than five years ago.
Although the burn scar on the side face was still there, it didn't give him the horrible and hideous feeling like it did back then.
Like a much older person, he greeted Audrey Turnah, asking her to sit down, and soon a servant brought tea.
"Miss Turnah, what's wrong with Jerry?" Henry Dank asked. He looked worried.
In the past few years, his son's temperament had changed drastically, and he had various incomprehensible and strange behaviors. To be honest, Henry Dank had long suspected that he was sick.
Audrey Turnah struggled for a moment, but in the end she still concealed his illness.
"It's just some insomnia and headache, if we give him a specialised treatment over a period of time, he would be fine,'' Audrey Turnah replied.
Jerry Dank had been ill for five years, but since he had been hiding the truth from Henry Dank and Elizabeth Coker, he must not want them to worry.
In terms of emotion and reason, Audrey had to respect his wishes.
Henry Dank was a little puzzled.
"But I heard from Collins say that you worked in a hospital in Mullan City? Why..." He asked.
Audrey Turnah understood the meaning of Henry Dank's words.
If it was just ordinary insomnia and headache, why bother to ask her to come over thousands of miles?
"That's right. Although this disease does not seem to be serious, it is very difficult to completely cure it,'' Audrey Turnah explained.
"It just so happens that the director of our department is an expert in this area. He was too busy to come, so he let me come. Don't worry, Mr. Dank, my technique has also been approved by our director. Wait for three months for treatment. After the period is over, Jerry's situation will get better,'' Audrey narrated.
"That's good,'' Henry Dank replied, relieved.
"There are so many people in your department, why did it have to be you that they sent here? Are you looking for Jerry directly?'' Elizabeth asked coldly.
Audrey Turnah pursed her lips and was about to speak, when Henry Dank interrupted her.
"Elizabeth, go and see if Jerry is back, I have something to ask Miss Turnah,'' he said quickly.
Elizabeth Coker nodded, and when she got up to go out, she glanced at Audrey Turnah, her eyes flickering.
"Miss Turnah, I hope your answer later will not disappoint him," she said, speaking of Mr. Dank.
Audrey Turnah's heart skipped a beat, did Henry Dank misunderstand something?
Was he going to vent his anger on Elizabeth Coker's behalf?
Twenty minutes ago, at Phoenix President's Office.
Jerry Dank was busy, but suddenly received a call from Henry Dank.
"Jerry, Miss Turnah is still alive, you are sick, why didn't you tell me such serious information?'' Henry Dank asked.
From the sound of Henry Dank's voice it was clear that he didn't know whether to sound helpless or blame Jerry Dank.
"If Elizabeth hadn't met Miss Turnah last night, you would have kept me in the dark until now?'' He added.
"It's not a serious illness,'' Jerry Dank replied lightly.
"It does not mean you should not have told me, does it?'' Henry Dank asked.
"Go back to Vanity tonight, Miss Turnah will come over later,'' he said to Jerry suddenly.
Jerry Dank's mood changed slightly.
"Have you contacted her?" He asked.
"Yes, I have. To ask her about your condition,'' Henry Dank replied.
Then he paused.
Jerry Dank's heart sank slightly.
"Dad, don't forget, she is now the doctor who treats me,'' he complained.
He deliberately emphasized the word doctor.
"What are you trying to say?" Henry Dank asked, smiling.
"Don't be aggressive with her like you were back then, and say things you shouldn't say," he added.
"Otherwise—" Jerry Dank said with a deep voice.
"What? Do you want to sever ties with your father?" Henry Dank asked Jerry leisurely.
"In the past few years, you have lived in Vanity Terrace by yourself, and you only come back to see me every week, and you can hardly even say a few words to me when you come back. In your eyes, there has been no father like me for a long time. But you care about Turnah," Henry Dank said with a sigh.
Jerry Dank narrowed his eyes, his thin lips were almost pursed into a line.
After a few seconds, he lowered his voice.
"Don't make things difficult for her,'' he said to his father.
When Collins Date came to look for Jerry Dank, he saw Jerry Dank striding forward and going out very fast.
Collins Date suspected that he was dazzled.
"Jerry? What's wrong?" He asked.
In his impression, he had almost never seen Jerry Dank in such a hasty and anxious manner, as if the sky was about to collapse.
Jerry Dank glanced at him, his face sank like water, his eyes cold.
"I will settle your account with you when I come back!" Jerry said to Collins hastily.
Collins Date was stunned.
What did he do, did he not do anything well?
It wasn't him who leaked Jerry Dank's illness, but Elizabeth, okay?
He just gave Henry Dank Audrey Turnah's phone number, what did he do too much?
Henry Dank had said that he blamed the Turnah family back then, and wanted to apologize to Audrey Turnah himself, could he not call her?
Why did Jerry Dank's murderous aura on his face spread all over him?
Jerry Dank's car drove to the fastest speed all the way, almost rushing to the Vanity villa at lightning speed.
Elizabeth Coker was waiting for him at the door, and greeted him with a smile.
"Jerry—"
Jerry Dank interrupted her.
"Where is Audrey Turnah?" He asked.
