Chapter 69 Brainwash
Scarlett looked at her little sister Nicole, sitting opposite. Her eyes and nose were slightly red. She looked very pitiful. There were clear signs that she had just squeezed her eyes with tears.
'Tsk! That evil woman is also bullying Nicole!?'
That woman was too greedy for wealth and money to the extent that she could harm her own daughter. How pathetic!
Scarlett still couldn't believe her father could fall in love with Lauren. That woman is beautiful, but her morals are below zero.
"What do you want to talk about?" Scarlett asked after seeing Nicole finish the glass of water she gave her.
Nicole put the glass on the table and looked at Scarlett with mixed feelings. She didn't want to force Scarlett to sign a company transfer contract but she really wanted their father to get surgery.
Her mother said the only way for her father to live is by asking her big sister to transfer the company.
Nicole felt terrible at this moment to beg Scarlett. Because she also knew the company was rightfully owned by her big sister. She inherited it from her late mother.
"No need to worry, Nicole. I won't be mad at you no matter what you say to me!" Scarlett could see there was anxiety in Nicole's demeanor that left this little girl unable to say a word, and her eyes looked unfocused.
After a long, painful silence, Nicole said, "It's about dad..." She paused while squeezing her hand tightly, only to let herself know that she might hurt her sister. But now she has no choice. She has to do what her mother tells her to do.
Nicole gritted her teeth before saying, "Sister, I'm sorry. Mom asked me to give you this..."
After Nicole placed a new set of company transfer forms on the table, she continued her words without looking at her sister's face — she didn't dare to do so.
"S-sis, I'm really, really sorry... I'm doing this for daddy. I can't let daddy die..." As if an unknown force was pulling her, Nicole stood up from her chair and walked towards Scarlett. She kneels before her sister, her head hanging low, staring at the floor. "Please help him!"
Scarlett was surprised. A second ago, she was still shocked to see the company transfer form on the table, now her little sister was kneeling in front of her. What is this?
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Before Scarlett could say anything, she heard Nicole say,
"Sis, please sign the transfer form. Mother said this is the only way that our father could survive. We need money to find the best doctor and perform another surgery for dad..." Nicole said in a hoarse voice.
Today she cried so much that her throat hurt. Her hands that were on her knees clenched tightly in embarrassment at having to kneel in front of her sister. This was genuinely humiliating, but she had no choice.
"Mom said she can't do anything if we don't have the money to pay the best doctors to perform a complicated surgery for dad. So, Sis, I beg you just this once... I promise you, one day, I will repay your kindness. I will never forget this, sis..."
There were a lot of sentences hanging from the tip of Nicole's tongue back into her throat. It was unable to escape from her lips. She was at a loss for words as her tears started falling, and she could feel her body shaking.
Now, Nicole could only silently pray for her sister to be moved to do what her mother asked.
Scarlett was tongue-tied hearing Nicole's words. 'Damn! That evil bitch, how dare she brainwash her daughter like this!?'
"Nicole..." Scarlett held Nicole's shoulder and helped her up. "Get up and sit back first!"
After seeing that Nicole had settled back in the chair. She studied her pitiful-looking face.
This little girl should have focused on her studies and not thought about these matters, but that bitch dragged this girl into this complicated and mature life problem?
Is this one of those bitch tricks to gain her sympathy by using her own daughter!?
"I will only talk if you stop crying, Nicole..." Scarlett then played with her cell phone ignoring Nicole, who was still sobbing.
Nicole finally started to wipe her tears and looked at Scarlett.
"Sis, I... I..."
Scarlett raised her hand to stop Nicole from speaking. After she saw Nicole stare at her blankly, she said, "...Nicole, you have to remember, you are not the one daddy's daughter, but so am I!" And forced a smile appeared on Scarlett's lips.
She could feel like a nail was being stabbed in her heart when she said that. The sudden pain she felt made her fists tightly clenched without her noticing.
"You don't need to kneel before me to beg me to help dad. Without you asking, I will do what I can do..." She maintained her smile but endured the pain in her heart.
Nicole's face brightened as she heard her sister's words.
"S-Sister... A-are you willing to sign that?" Nicole stammered in surprise.
"Of course not." Scarlett calmly smiles.
Instantly Nicole's shoulders shrunk. She knew her mother's request was too much. Who wants to give up such a big company for free!?
Even though she didn't understand business yet, she wouldn't do it if she was in her sister's shoes.
Nicole smiled bitterly at Scarlett before she said, "Okay, sis, I understand..." So this is the end of the conversation, right? She was about to stand up, but suddenly she stopped when she heard her sister say,
"Two days from now, a doctor will come, and he will be performing the surgery for dad. So, you don't need to worry. He will come back healthy! He won't die easily."
"B-But mother said only the Divine Doctor can perform that surgery..." Even though she wanted to believe her sister, the facts were like that.
"I know, that's why I said that. The divine doctor will lead the surgery. But don't say anything to anyone, including your mother. Just keep this information for yourself..."
Nicole's eyes lit up at the news.
