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 tin escorting her back to the ward.
Presently, Crystal walked up to Matthew in a daze and asked, "My goodness, Matthew, | didn't think you'd know
her, and on a first-nbasis, no less."
Crystal's eyes were as wide as saucers. "I can't believe she's actually a relative of yours. She's the woman | was
telling you about earlier! Her daughter cover 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

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 sreason, 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 ttogether, 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 callwhen something so terrible had happened to you? Do you even
seeas 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 cto 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 spunk 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. | was
the one who embarrassed her in front of her friends. They were having a good tuntil | 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 srandom punk? Besides, you're her mother, so it was only right for you
to tell her off like that. Even if your words cout 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?"
