Ch. 1321..1330

Even After Death Chapter 1321-Olivia was cooking medicinal foods in the kitchen when Tatiana walked in.

She even asked a maid to prepare a chicken and some nourishing ingredients.

Olivia was surprised to see Tatiana put on an apron. The ingredients she asked for didn't seem to be ingredients for a soup for Mason.

They were more like ingredients for someone who had just had a miscarriage.

Grandma, are you cooking for Molly?

Tatiana used to look down on Olivia. She finally understood that Olivia was a doctor with morals when she saw her trying so hard to protect Molly in the camera footage.

When she was operating on Mason, she wasn't thinking about what she could gain from it.

She was only thinking about Mason's well-being. Or else, she wouldn't have protected the sister of Ethan's rival.

But because of her preconception about Olivia, she had always thought Olivia was a very cunning woman.

Tatiana sighed. "I'll be honest with you. I'm not trying to appear nice to them. I really do want to atone for the crime that Krystal committed.

I do also think that she was treated very unfairly and cruelly.

For some reason, probably because Molly was beaten up so badly by Krystal, Tatiana felt her chest tighten when she thought about Molly.

She really didn't deserve what happened to her.

Meeting Olivia's prying gaze, Tatiana smiled bitterly.

"I know you must feel like Krystal is a bad-tempered and dumb person.

She wasn't with us when she was young. She only came to live with us after she was grown up."

"That was why we spoiled her rotten. No one expected her to become like this.

As her mother, I'm ashamed of her actions. I just want to do something within my power to make up for the harm she has caused."""

Understood. Olivia didn't say anything else.

Both of them finished cooking at about the same time. They put the food into thermal containers.

Let's go, Grandma.

Yale's subordinates were standing guard outside the ward, forbidding anyone from entering. They only allowed them to enter because they saw Olivia.

In terms of medical prowess, Mason was the best testament to Olivia's capabilities.

Yale was counting on her to nurse Molly back to health. So, he was very courteous to her.

Just as they got to the door, they heard a woman's shrill voice.

Mrs. Kingston put her hands on her hips and said, "Don't forget that we are the ones who gave you everything you have.

"So what if you had a miscarriage? You would have deserved it even if Ms.

Heath beat you to death.

How dare you tell Yale to say all those disrespectful things to the Heaths? I knew I shouldn't have adopted an ungrateful bitch like you."""

"Mom, I didn't do that. I just woke up. I don't know what happened. I didn't tell Yale to do anything.

Please believe…"

Mrs. Kingston gave Molly a resounding slap.

Ms. Heath was right. You're just a homewrecker. You.

Tatiana dropped her usually gentle demeanor and burst through the door. "How domineering of you, Mrs. Kingston."

with a slight bow.

Why have you come, Mrs. Heath? This bitch is not worthy of your time.

Olivia quickly went over to Molly's side. She placed the food containers aside and asked gently, "Are you okay?"

I. I'm fine, Molly replied softly.

Tatiana didn't get a good look at Molly from the security footage. She finally got a good look at Molly, who was lying in bed.

She was very slender. Her forehead was bandaged, and her face was swollen.

Her skin was very pale, so the slightest blemish was very obvious.

Molly was trying her best to hold back the tears in her eyes. Olivia and Tatiana couldn't help but feel bad for her.

490157

Even After Death Chapter 1322-Tatiana snorted. "If I didn't come, how would I find out how you treat your own daughter, Mrs. Kingston."

"She's just a brat that we adopted. We provided for her out of kindness. But she actually dared to sow discord between Yale and Ms. Heath. She caused this marriage to crumble.

I think Ms. Heath was right. She deserved that beating!"""

extremely foul-mouthed.

Tatiana was a mother who loved her children.

Although Linus had a strict upbringing, she would slip him some knee pads she made herself when he was punished and had to kneel for long periods of time.

That was also why she spoiled Krystal rotten. She would never allow anyone to harm her children.

She asked gently, "How are you doing, child?"

Molly looked at the pretty and elegant woman whom she didn't know cautiously.

I'm okay.

How are you? Look at how swollen your face is!

Krystal was the perpetrator.

She gave Molly a look. "This is Mrs. Heath. You should feel honored that she came in person to visit you."

Molly took a good look at Tatiana. So, this was Krystal's mother? They looked nothing like each other.

Be it looks or temperament, they were completely different.

It made her feel closer to Tatiana.

She quickly came back to her senses. She was just a nobody. She didn't have the right to think of Tatiana like that.

She lowered her head apologetically. "Thanks, Mrs. Heath. I'm fine. Thanks for coming to visit me."

Olivia brought over some ointment for Molly's swollen face. She walked in and saw how meek Molly was being.

She was even trying to get off the bed.

Olivia couldn't help but feel bad for Molly.

"You just underwent dilation and curettage. Your stomach should still be hurting.

You should just stay in bed.

Don't get up. Mrs. Heath doesn't care about such things."""

Tatiana helped Molly back into the bed. "Lay down, and don't move."

Olivia was about to apply the ointment on Molly when Tatiana took it from her.

Let me do it.

Okay.

leave.

Mrs. Kingston, Molly needs to rest now. Why don't you just go home for home.

I don't have anything else to do. I came here specifically to take care of Molly.

This is how you take care of your daughter? Tatiana pointed at the swollen "I don't know what came over me. I…"

"She was just in surgery and is devastated that she lost her baby. She needs rest, not blame or a scolding.

Mrs. Kingston, please leave. Olivia is a professional doctor. She'll be able to provide Molly with the care she needs."""

So, she left after exchanging pleasantries for a little while longer.

As soon as she left, it felt like the air in the room cleared up. The annoying voice was gone.

Tatiana applied the ointment on Molly's face gently.

Molly was overwhelmed. She wanted to get off the bed again.

"Mrs. Heath, you don't have to do this for me. I'm just a worthless nobody. I won't blame Ms. Heath for this.

Please forgive my brother. If he said anything to offend you in a fit of rage, I apologize in his stead."""

490158

Even After Death Chapter 1323-Molly was naive, but she wasn't dumb. She knew something happened because Yale loved her so much. She didn't know what extreme measures he would take when he saw her in this state.

frustration.

Molly hated the fact that she was a burden to Yale. She was about to get on her knees on the bed to apologize to Tatiana.

Seeing how scared and uneasy she was, Tatiana and Olivia helped her lay down properly on the bed again.

Olivia snapped, "Don't move! Do you want to bleed out and die?"

Molly didn't know anything about medicine. She only felt like there was some bleeding in her nether region after she moved.

This was a normal physiological phenomenon after dilation and curettage. But she froze when she thought about what Olivia said.

She was scared of dying because Yale would lose his mind if she died.

Tatiana sighed when she saw how docile Molly was. She was a very pitiable person.

It might seem like she was just trying to make amends in Krystal's stead, but Tatiana actually felt bad for Molly.

She heard that Molly's adoption was just a charity act for publicity.

the Kingston household.

She was the one who was beaten up, and yet she was the one who apologized.

She really had it rough.

Alright, Molly, you have to relax. Don't be so nervous.

Tatiana continued to apply the ointment on Molly. "Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere else?"

Tatiana's voice was very gentle. Molly, who had never experienced motherly love in her life, suddenly teared up.

Mrs. Heath, my… my stomach hurts.

Olivia frowned. "Why didn't you say so earlier? Aren't you on patient-controlled analgesia?"

It was normal for a patient's stomach to hurt after dilation and curettage. Molly was in such a bad state.

Her pain would definitely be several times worse than a normal patient.

Maybe they forgot.

It could be understandable if normal families didn't want to spend the money for patient-controlled analgesia, but the Kingstons could very well afford it.

Besides, this was Chris' hospital. Ethan had told him to take good care of the patients.

stopped the nurses from using it!

She blamed Molly for all the things that Yale did. That was why she was making things difficult for Molly even when Molly was already in such a bad condition.

Olivia and Tatiana looked at each other. Both of them had guessed why Molly wasn't using any patient- controlled analgesia.

They used to be at odds, but they were strangely in sync at that very moment.

I'll get a nurse to give you some right now.

Olivia exited the room, went to look for Chris, and scolded him harshly.

Chris asked a nurse to hook Molly up with some patient-controlled analgesia.

Then, he said with an aggrieved expression, "Olivia, you didn't see how vicious Mrs. Kingston was. She forbade us from providing Molly with patient-controlled analgesia.

That was her daughter, so we could only respect her wishes as the patient's family member.

Olivia was aware that Chris didn't have a choice. The Kingstons were an influential family of politicians.

He couldn't afford to get on their bad side.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have taken it out on you.

Olivia was just frustrated to see Molly in such a horrible state.

Where did Yale go? Olivia asked anxiously.

He was here the whole time. He only left after Molly's surgery was finished. I think he went to get changed. He didn't want to scare Molly with his bloodied clothes.

Keep an eye out on her.

Chris raised an eyebrow. "Have you forgotten that Yale tried to expose your exhusband's identity a few years ago?

"He caused the two of you to be chased after by assassins, and the two of you almost died.

This is a great chance to get revenge on him. Why are you helping him so much?"""

"Molly should have to pay for what Yale did. We shouldn't kick people when they're already down.

Besides, he already got what he deserved."

490159

Even After Death Chapter 1324-There were only two people left in the room.

Molly was given patient-controlled analgesia, so she wasn't in as much pain as before.

Tatiana looked at her tenderly. "Do you feel better now?"

Molly nodded. "I feel better. You don't have to care about me, Mrs. Heath. I won't hate Ms. Heath for this.

I was in the wrong. It was all my fault. Please forgive Yale for his actions.

The two of you are very close, aren't you? Tatiana sighed.

Yale was willing to give everything up for Molly's sake and ran into the Heath Residence alone. He was even prepared to cut ties with the Kingston family.

On the other hand, Molly was badly beaten up, but the only thing on her mind was Yale.

"Don't worry. I'm here to apologize for what Krystal did. It doesn't matter if you're angry at her or not.

It's a fact that she did something wrong. We won't cover it up for her."""

Tatiana originally came here to do exactly that. She wanted Molly to talk Yale out of filing that lawsuit.

But she couldn't find it in her to speak when she saw how submissive Molly was, which was a stark contrast to how Krystal acted.

You must be hungry. Olivia and I made some food. You don't have to worry about anything else for now.

She might not be her biological daughter, but it was still a very cruel way to treat her.

Tatiana opened the container with chicken soup.

Have some soup. I made it with some free-range chicken. Try and see if it tastes good.

Mrs. Heath, I-I'm unworthy of eating your cooking. I'm just—

Tatiana's chest tightened when she saw Molly acting so fearfully and timidly.

Give it a try and see if it's good. Don't be afraid. It's a little hot.

After Molly took a few sips, Tatiana asked, "How is it? You're still recovering, so I made it milder."

Molly's tears fell into the chicken soup and stirred up some ripples.

It's delicious. Thanks, Mrs. Heath.

Molly wiped her tears hastily. "Mrs. Heath, I'm not crying on purpose.

The Kingstons would say she was trying to seduce men with her tears and yell profanities at her. She thought Tatiana would do the same.

Unexpectedly, Tatiana just held her hand gently.

Don't cry when you're still recovering from a miscarriage. Crying is bad for your eyes.

For some reason, Tatiana felt like someone held a tight grip on her heart when Molly cried. It pained her to see Molly cry.

Since I'm free, I'll cook some chicken soup for you every day from now on.

"You really don't have to do that, Mrs. Heath. Are you here because Yale wants to sue Ms. Heath?

He is a very stubborn man. Don't worry. I'll definitely convince him to drop this lawsuit."""

Tatiana felt even more remorseful when she met Molly's pure and innocent gaze.

She changed her mind. She took Molly's hand and said, "Krystal is the one in the wrong. Anything Yale does would be justified. I won't try to talk him out of anything.

I'm just here to check on you. Don't be sad. You're making me feel bad as well.

Molly started to sip on the soup in silence.

Tatiana looked at how well-mannered Molly was. She was the ideal daughter that Tatiana wanted.

Linus didn't look like her but was the spitting image of Mason.

Krystal was just nothing like her. She had done nothing but cause trouble ever since she was brought back to the family.

In the past, Tatiana just drew it up to Krystal being immature because she was still just a child.

But Olivia, who was even younger than Krystal, and even Molly, were very wellbehaved. So, Tatiana started to reflect on her past actions.

They were wrong from the start. They kept cleaning up Krystal's messes and caused her to grow into an entitled person.

She would never think that she was in the wrong.

This time, Tatiana didn't want to clean up Krystal's mess anymore.

490160

Even After Death Chapter 1325-Tatiana took Molly's hand.

Molly, I really feel bad for you. Mrs. Kingston mistreats you, doesn't she?

Molly didn't dare to speak ill of other people. So, she shook her head.

She… She just lost her temper today.

"You must've had a sad childhood with a foster parent like her. If you are willing, why don't you become my goddaughter?

You won't be bullied anymore with the Heath family's protection."""

Molly was stunned. She stammered, "I. I."

She knew that Tatiana was just trying to talk her out of pressing charges. But she never intended to press charges against Krystal.

The door was suddenly opened.

It was Yale who had showered and changed into a new set of clothes.

Molly!

Yale looked anxious, but he was momentarily stunned when he saw Tatiana.

Then he realized why Tatiana was there. His gaze quickly turned cautious.

Mrs. Heath.

Tatiana thought about what Yale said back at the Heath Residence. She understood how he felt after she met Molly. So, she wasn't angry.

I'm just here to check on Molly. I was just saying how we got along well, and I want her to be my goddaughter.

Yale wasn't happy at all. He smiled mockingly.

Mrs. Heath, you're really pulling out all the stops just to help Krystal get off scotfree, aren't you?

Tatiana was a little embarrassed.

Yes, that was what I wanted to do initially, but I changed my mind. I.

Yale didn't listen to a single word she said. He was destined to have to stand against everyone since he made the decision to stand with Molly.

"Mrs. Heath, I've already cut ties with the Kingston family officially. I don't care how the Kingstons try to suck up to the Heath family.

As Molly's brother, I just want to get justice for my sister."

As for these tricks you're trying to pull, I suggest you give up on them. I won't give up on this lawsuit.

Yale gestured for Tatiana to leave. "The hospital doesn't suit you. I'll take care of my own sister. Please leave."

Tatiana opened her mouth, but she ended up not saying anything. Truth be told, nothing she could say would change Yale's mind.

She patted Molly on the shoulder. "Rest well. I really did cook this soup. Be sure to finish it. I'll visit you again next time."

Molly didn't know what to say. She couldn't reveal her relationship with Yale to Tatiana.

So, she bit her lip before saying, "Thanks for coming to visit me."

Yale escorted Tatiana to the door.

I still need to take care of her, so I won't be seeing you off.

As soon as Tatiana walked out the door, Yale slammed the door shut behind her.

Olivia witnessed that as she returned to the room. She couldn't help but smile at the irony.

Yale used to be very subservient to the Heaths. It was the complete opposite this time.

It was true that people would lose their fear when they didn't have anything else to lose.

Grandma, did they drive you out?

Olivia actually joked with Tatiana. She realized that Tatiana wasn't as bad as she thought she was when she saw Tatiana cook for Molly personally.

The truly despicable ones were people like Krystal and Lisa.

They were rotten to the core. They laid their hands on a pregnant woman and her baby.

Tatiana shrugged. "You saw everything, didn't you?"

I'll go downstairs with you.

Olivia actually wanted to ask Tatiana some questions.

Grandma, has Lisa been working for you for a long time?

Why are you bringing her up all of a sudden?

"She was the one who led the charge into the Kingston Residence.

When everyone was focused on Krystal beating Molly up, they neglected the fact that Lisa was attacking Molly's maid. I've never seen a normal person attack others so viciously."""

Tatiana frowned as she started to think back to what was in the security footage.

What are you trying to say?

Olivia didn't have any proof. She could only offer a warning.

Tatiana snapped back to reality. "Do you have a copy of the video that Yale played?"

Linus kept a copy. Why?

I need to take a look at it.

They turned on the video in the bedroom. This time, Tatiana's attention was focused on Lisa.

As expected, the entire incident was different when Lisa was at the center of attention, from her entering the Kingston Residence to her attacking Florence.

If Krystal attacked Molly because of a misunderstanding, then why would Lisa have a grudge against a maid?

Florence was pretty badly injured.

Tatiana saw the arrogance and viciousness on Lisa's face. It was completely different from the usually hardworking and honest maid that she was.

Instead, her expression seemed a little familiar.

Wait. Pause the video, Mason said.

Tatiana did as he said.

The video stopped at Krystal and Lisa having the same smug expression after having beaten up their respective victims.

Tatiana grabbed Mason's hand. "Mason, don't you think the two of them look alike?"

Mason remained silent with an upset expression, but he clearly had some ideas forming in his mind.

Tatiana quickly dropped the unrealistic thought. "What nonsense am I spewing?

Lisa raised Krystal since she was just a child. It's probably just facial mimicry."

I seem to remember that Lisa also gave birth to a child, right?

"That's right. We gave birth to our babies almost simultaneously. But she was unlucky.

Her baby died shortly after birth. That was why she offered to be Krystal's nanny."

I figured that I knew her well, and it wouldn't impact my body's recovery. It would even help her get through the pain of losing her baby. So, I agreed.

Then, Krystal was sent to the countryside. Lisa also volunteered to tag along to care for Krystal.

Tatiana tightened her grip on Mason's hand. "What are you trying to say, Mason?"

"Usually, Lisa's a hardworking and efficient employee when she's with us. She always seemed like an honest person.

But she was spinning all sorts of lies today and tried to twist the facts."

Do you think we would believe her or Yale if Yale didn't have the security footage?

Lisa was Krystal's trusted aide. Their first reaction would undoubtedly be to trust Lisa. But they ended up being fooled by her.

The footage and the information I gathered imply that Lisa isn't really a good person.

Mason concluded, "This incident was single-handedly caused by her. From tricking Yale to take the memory card from the dashcam to bringing those people to Kingston Residence. They were all her ideas all along."

Why would she want to do that? Is she trying to set Krystal up?

Mason said coldly, "No, she wasn't trying to harm Krystal. It's the complete opposite.

"She loves Krystal too much, so much so that she was willing to cover up Krystal's wrongdoing like us.

She didn't want any harm to befall Krystal."""

Do you mean…

Krystal is completely unrelated to her. Why would she care about Krystal to this degree?

490162

Even After Death Chapter 1327-Tatiana thought about what Olivia said on the way home.

Honestly, her attention was completely on Krystal and Molly. She wasn't in the mood to care about anyone else.

Olivia's words made her feel like something was wrong.

Back when Krystal was driven out of the Heath family, Lisa was the one who said she wanted to talk some sense into Krystal.

She went to where Krystal was and never returned.

She gave Tatiana a call and told her that she wanted to stay there and take care of Krystal.

Krystal didn't have any experience taking care of babies.

Lisa was a meticulous person and had been taking care of Krystal since she was a child. It was only natural that the two of them were close.

She got back to the Heath Residence as she was spacing out and walked right into Mason.

Mason looked at her. "What are you lost in thought about? Did you accomplish what you went to do?"
