Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage Chapter 983

Life Must Be Hard for Her

Matthew countered gently, “Heidi, I think Helen would be a lot more devastated to know that you withheld
something like this from her. The both of you are sisters, but do you really see her as family if you refuse
to tell her anything? Now, just stay put and get the rest you need while I help you out with everything
else. I’m a doctor here, after all.”

Heidi made to protest, but the nurses who restrained her wasted no time in escorting her back to the
ward.

Presently, Crystal walked up to Matthew in a daze and asked, “My goodness, Matthew, I didn’t think
you’d know her, and on a first-name basis, no less.”

Matthew shrugged. “She’s Sasha’s aunt, and she happens to be my mother-in-law’s sister.”

Crystal’s eyes were as wide as saucers. “I can’t believe she’s actually a relative of yours. She’s the
woman I was telling you about earlier! Her daughter came over and caused a whole scene, spewing
nonsense about how she would starve to death and drop out of school. It was no wonder the woman was
anxious to get back to work. Life must be hard for her!”

Matthew let out a quiet breath of resignation. He knew how headstrong Heidi was and that she would
never intentionally ask for help, no matter how dire her situation was. For some reason, this only made
her all the more admirable.

Now that Matthew was aware of her struggles, he couldn’t just sit by and do nothing. At first instance, he
called Sasha, who in turn relayed the incident to Helen.

Barely half an hour had passed when Sasha and Helen showed up at the hospital, worried and anxious.
As soon as they arrived, they immediately urged, “Matthew, which room is Heidi staying in right now?
How is she coping?”



Without saying much, Matthew brought them over to Heidi’s ward.



The moment Helen laid eyes on Heidi, she burst into tears. Heidi was her youngest sister, and while the
both of them hadn’t spent much time together, it didn’t take away from the fact that she was the baby of
the family and was naturally the most beloved child of all. It went without saying that as the second child
in the sibling group, Helen had always had a soft spot for Heidi.

However, these past few years had been hard on Helen as well, so she didn’t help Heidi out with much.
Right now, she felt as if someone had stabbed her through the heart when she saw the miserable state
Heidi was in.

Running over to her sister’s bedside, Helen broke down into sobs and held Heidi tightly in her arms. “H-
Heidi, what were you thinking? Why didn’t you call me when something so terrible had happened to you?
Do you even see me as your own sister?”

Heidi, on the other hand, wrapped her arms around Helen like a child and began to sob as well. It was as
though the floodgates were opened, and the resentment and heartache that had built up within her over
the past few days instantly flowed through.

Meanwhile, to one side, Sasha watched the heartwrenching reunion between her mother and aunt. Her
expression was sullen as she asked quietly, “Matthew, what in the world is going on? How did Heidi end
up getting so badly injured?”

Matthew narrated the whole thing to Sasha, who was fuming when his explanation came to an end.

“What?” she thundered. “L-Leia did all that? How could she? How did the girl turn out the way she did?”



Helen was equally belligerent after hearing the details. “What in the world is wrong with this child? What
was she thinking? Her own mother was run down by some punk on a motorbike, and she didn’t even
have the good sense of calling the police? Not to mention how she didn’t even show up to take care of
Heidi! What is going on in that head of hers?”

“No, Helen, it wasn’t Leia’s fault,” Heidi interjected, hurrying to her daughter’s defense. “It really wasn’t. I
was the one who embarrassed her in front of her friends. They were having a good time until I showed
up and told her off without thinking. That was why her friends got angry; they were probably annoyed at
my behavior.” With a sigh, she added guiltily, “This is all my fault.”

Helen could scarcely believe the words tumbling out of her sister’s mouth. Infuriated, she snapped,
“What the hell are you talking about, Heidi? How is any of this your fault? What, do you actually think it’s
sensible for a young girl like Leia to move in with some random punk? Besides, you’re her mother, so it
was only right for you to tell her off like that. Even if your words came out wrong, she could have just
argued with you or tried to speak up for herself. But for those guys to run you down with a motorbike?
What the hell was that all about?”
