Chapter 141 A fateful encounter

In an ordinary bungalow on Bronze Avenue, a very fierce quarrel could be heard vaguely, accompanied by the sound of objects hitting the ground and breaking.

The quarrel ended when a person was pushed out of the door. Although the person who was pushed out tried hard to stand still, her right leg was visibly injured and she couldn't exert any strength at all, so she was pushed to the ground.

"Get out! Don't come again! I have nothing to do with you!" As the voice fell, the door was slammed shut.

The person who fell on the ground struggled for a long time before she slowly stood up from the ground. Even so, she could not stop sweating from the pain.

It must be said that the eldest lady of the Earl's family, who once had everything she wanted and had everything she wanted, has fallen into this state, which is very miserable.

Mary has not been having a good time this month.

Although Fred warned her in advance, the property she could transfer was still too little, barely enough to rent a reasonably livable house on Bronze Avenue.

Although the landlord was asking for a sky-high price, but no one was willing to rent the house to them, Mary had no choice but to bite the bullet and rent it, so that at least she would have a shelter from the wind and rain.

But how to live soon became a problem for Mary and Gray. In their original life plan, Gray would inherit Beard's title, and Mary would marry a well-matched nobleman. There was no need to think about how to survive.

Kind of thing.

Finally, they went to the Brave Association to register and see if there were any missions they could take on.

But the two of them were accustomed to being arrogant, and they looked down on tasks with low pay, while high-paying tasks often required a team to complete.

However, those who will become braves actually come out of the Brave Academy, but they are forced to become braves due to personal wishes or because they cannot inherit the title and cannot hold a certain position in the family territory and have no source of income. In other words

In other words, everyone is a noble, and no one knows what happened. Anyone who dares to have anything to do with Mary and the others will be labeled as treason.

So Mary and Gray couldn't find anyone willing to team up with them.

Seeing that there was not much money left in their hands, the two of them gritted their teeth and went to challenge the difficult task.

As a result, one of them came back injured and the other disabled, which became a big joke in the Brave Association.

Not to mention the money is not earned, subsequent treatment will incur greater expenses.

Mary put down all her self-esteem and dragged her disabled leg to beg Beard's illegitimate daughter. She knew that Beard had given this illegitimate daughter a lot of money when he was still alive.

As a result, he was kicked out mercilessly by this woman, and was even told: "I don't know you, and I have nothing to do with you!"

Yes... no one wants to have anything to do with her now.

For the first time, she knew that living was such a difficult thing. She looked at her hands blankly. A month ago, these were white and delicate hands with colorful jewelry, but now they were covered with jewelry.

Scars, dirt.

It would be better to die in such a life.

"It's really... pitiful."

A soft sigh suddenly sounded, and Mary immediately raised her head and looked over warily.

A woman didn't know when she appeared in front of her, looking down at her with pitiful eyes.

Mary's arrogant self-esteem over the years made it difficult for Mary to accept being looked at like this. "Get out!" she growled in a low voice, "If you don't get out, I will kill you with magic!"

"You don't have to be so hostile," the woman chuckled, "I'm Cress, and I really want to help you."

Mary sneered at this sentence. Years of being flattered and flattered made her understand that any good thing has a purpose and requires something.

Cress didn't mind her attitude. She looked at Mary's injuries and said, "You need a doctor now, I can help you."

Although she knew that this woman was definitely going to take advantage of her, for Mary now, she needed a doctor too much, so she asked hesitantly: "Really?"

"Of course," Cress nodded affirmatively, "Let's go, follow me."

Her fatal weakness was poked, and Mary could only follow Cress no matter how reluctant she was.

Cress was not walking fast in front, just at a normal speed, but Mary's legs were inconvenient, and she had to endure great pain to barely keep up with Cress's pace.

She didn't dare to ask Cress to walk slower. On the premise of asking for help from others, she didn't dare to ask for anything, for fear that she would be disliked and the other person would regret not helping her.

Little did they know that Cress did it on purpose. Does it hurt? It hurts. How can you hate it if it doesn’t hurt?

Who would Mary hate? It's not her anyway. You know, she is the "good Samaritan" who found a doctor for Mary. How dare Mary hate her? She hates Beard, but Beard is hers no matter what.

Father, blood ties can only make people resentful at most, but far from being hated.

For so long, I could only hate the "culprit" who put her in this situation.

Originally, she chose to find Mary on the day of Beard's execution. She watched her father die with her own eyes, and her heart was in shock. It was the most convenient time to take advantage of it, but she was disturbed by Azarez.

.

Of course, this is a good time. Look at Mary, how miserable and helpless she is. She is willing to call this a fateful encounter.

When she reached the door of the medical center, Cress realized belatedly: "Are you okay? It's all my fault. I left too fast."

Mary shook her head arduously. She was not stupid and knew that she must not offend Cress at this time.

The doctor quickly gave Mary emergency treatment, and then Cress signaled him to step back.

"Thank you." No matter how ungrateful she is, one month is enough time to teach Mary to let go of her dignity. In the past, Mary would not do such a thing as thank you.

"It doesn't matter," Cress shook her head, and then sighed as if unintentionally, "You have also suffered a lot."

This sentence touched Mary, and all the negative emotions of the past month flooded into her heart, almost making her burst into tears, but she bit her lip to hold it back, and the tears still fell.

Cress reached out her hand lovingly and patted Mary on the shoulder: "It's okay, your pain will be over soon. It would be better if you are willing to help me."

Even though Mary knew this was a trap, but...she didn't want to live like this anymore, and she would rather die if she continued to live like this!

Wiping away her tears, Mary said in a hoarse voice: "What do you need from me?"

Cress sighed inwardly, look at how easy it is to fool this person, completely different from that man who caught the fish with just a few words.

"Don't worry, I won't ask you to do anything difficult. At least I want you to recover from your injuries."
