Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence

Chapter: 279 Ariana kept her eyes on the gauze in her hand while she asked flatly, “About what?”

“My sister’s video,” Tyler replied while feeling embarrassed. He hesitated before adding, “I know you sent that to me. Thanks.’

Ariana was irritated when his sister’s matter was mentioned. Unconsciously, she pressed his wound while she was still bandaging it up.

Tyler hissed but quickly kept his mouth shut. He hurriedly found an excuse for his reaction. “I’m okay. It doesn’t hurt. | bit my tongue by accident.”

Ariana felt even more irritated when Tyler was being cautious around her. However, she moved gentler than before. She cleared her throat and said, “I don’t know what video you're referring to. Stop spouting nonsense.”

Tyler’s anxiety grew and wanted to explain further. However, Ariana shot him a warning glance and he instantly realized that she did not want to be entangled in this matter. Perhaps that was why she had lied and claimed that she was an assistant.

Tyler didn’t insist on carrying on the conversation after he figured out her intention. He just said in a low voice, “Thank you anyway.”

After some silence, Ariana pretended to ask casually, “How is your sister now? | heard that you sued Brielle but withdrew your charges. Why did you do that?”

She was slightly anxious about Tyler's answer when she asked, as his answer was a deciding factor in whether she should sign the contract with him or not.

Tyler went silent for such a long time that Ariana was about to lose her patience and wanted him to leave. After what felt like an eternity, Ariana was finally ready to ask him to leave.

However, before she could speak, Tyler finally answered, “Brielle promised to pay my family two million to compensate for our loss. She already paid five hundred thousand in advance, the rest will be paid in a span of three months when the video is deleted and after we withdraw the lawsuit.”

Ariana felt very disappointed by his answer. So he was still eyeing the money.

She was at a loss for words and looked quietly at Tyler, who kept his head low. She couldn't tell what he was thinking.

Tyler continued while sounding depressed, “I know we shouldn't do this... But we don’t have a choice. Betty's face was burnt badly and is almost unrecognizable. One of her comeas was destroyed, and her eyesight on the other eye was also affected.

Our entire family tried our best to gather the money for her surgery and donate our skin to her. We only had enough money for her first surgery. After the surgery, she looks a little human now.”

His voice turned grave as he whispered, “The doctor said that Betty would need to undergo the operation at least ten more times. Our family can’t afford it, let alone make an artificial eye for her when it’s all done.”

Tyler’s voice was almost hoarse when he spoke, his hand grabbing firmly on the armrest.

“So I’m sorry to disappoint you. We need the money. Without it, Betty can’t live on,” he said in determination. He then raised his head and looked at her stubbornly as he added, “You must hate this kind of behavior, right?”NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Ariana was too heartbroken to reply. She realized that she had not considered Tyler’s perspective at all.
