Chapter 445 Death of Chandler’s Mother

When Meryl and Chandler had just walked out of the doctor’s office, his phone rang again.

This time, it was Dylan calling. He asked seriously, “Did you break Dalton’s ribs? Where are you now? Come here right now!”

He rarely used such a harsh tone to talk to Chandler. Meryl’s heart skipped a beat, and she glanced at him with concern.

If it was not handled perfectly, Chandler would likely be accused of being ruthless to his family.

He hung up the phone and replied, “I’ll drive you back first, okay?”

“No! I want to stay with you!”

Meryl gently took Chandler’s arm. “We are husband and wife. When either of us is in trouble, we should solve it together. Don’t push me away, okay?”

After a moment of silence, he nodded in agreement.

Before entering the ward, they stood in the corridor and heard Charlotte crying inside.

She had always behaved herself. Her loss of control over herself was unprecedented. “He had a thoracotomy yesterday and was recovering. However, his three ribs were broken, and now, his…”

After Chandler left yesterday, the medical staff rescued Dalton. Obviously, he was seriously injured.

One night passed. Dalton remained in a coma this morning. Now, he was in the intensive care unit, and his condition was unknown.

As soon as Chandler appeared in the ward, Charlotte rushed over angrily.

“Why did you beat Dalton so hard? Even if you don’t regard him as your family, he is still a patient. He got injured in order to save Meryl, but you don’t appreciate it. How can you be so cruel to him?”

She put the blame on Chandler with a barrage of questions. Dylan’s face darkened.

After all, such a thing had never happened before.

Morton said, “In my opinion, Chandler is as heartless as his mother!”

Dylan suddenly shot an icy glare at Morton.

Morton knew that he had said something inappropriate. Yet, Dalton’s life was at risk, so he was inevitably distracted.

Chandler seemed to ignore it.

With an expressionless face, he asked Meryl to sit on the sofa and got her some water in a disposable cup before fixing his eyes on Morton.

“Chandler!” Dylan interrupted him, frowning deeply. “How could you say that about your mother?”

“Am I wrong? Don’t you think so? That’s why you sent me to the countryside and didn’t care about me.”

When Chandler mentioned his childhood, Dylan suddenly fell silent.

He hunched over as if his energy had been drained. Sitting in a wheelchair, he opened his mouth but said nothing. Unpleasant memories of Chandler’s childhood flashed through his mind.

Next to him, Meryl narrowed her eyes.

She learned that Dylan had been married to three wives, the first two of whom he divorced within a few years. Yet, Chandler’s mother died just a few days after giving birth to him.

She died of a massive hemorrhage during childbirth.

Everyone speculated that Dylan disliked Chandler’s birth, which had contributed to her death, and that he, unwilling to see Chandler, sent him away from the Aniston family.

However, for some reason, Meryl felt that there was an inside story about the death of Chandler’s mother.
