She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor

Chapter 710: Chapter 710: Giving Her the Confidence to Face the Knox Family

One hour later.

Wyatt Lewis followed Waylon Lewis and Hope Williams out of the police station.

Wyatt Lewis had a bruise on his face, looking somewhat pitiful, and obediently followed behind Waylon Lewis.

Waylon Lewis had a stern expression and didn’t speak, which made Wyatt Lewis feel anxious, suspecting he was planning how to send him to heaven quickly.

Thinking about it, Wyatt Lewis quietly moved closer to Hope Williams.

Being next to his sister-in-law felt like a warm spring breeze, unlike his brother, who felt like a chilling cold wind.

Isla Sue was shocked to hear her daughter was in the police station and rushed over, fearing something serious had happened to Aria Richardson.

"What’s going on? How did you end up in the police station?"

Aria Richardson shook her head; she wasn’t in the mood to explain to Isla Sue.

Soon, Alexander Knox also came out of the police station. His face was cold as he looked directly at Aria Richardson, clearly waiting for her to say something.

Isla Sue nudged Aria Richardson, signaling that Alexander Knox was waiting for her.

Aria Richardson bit her lip and glanced at Hope Williams and the others, "Hope, we’ll leave now."

"Wait." Hope Williams stepped forward, took Aria Richardson’s hand, and placed a check in her hand.

Aria Richardson’s eyelashes trembled, "Hope, what’s this for?"

Hope Williams patted Aria Richardson’s hand, "Take it. I told you before that if you have difficulties, you should come to me promptly."

Aria Richardson looked down at it; it was a check for a hundred million.

After a while, Aria Richardson reacted and looked up at Hope Williams, her eyes filling with tears.

She really needed that hundred million right now.

"Thank you, Hope. I’ll repay you as soon as the Richardson Clan’s situation improves."

"Don’t be so polite with me. There’s no rush to repay it. Treat it as my investment in the Richardson Clan’s project."

Hope Williams looked at Aria Richardson, truly feeling sorry for her. The Knox Family didn’t agree with their marriage, fearing they might want the hundred million back.

Even if the Knox Family didn’t want it back, knowing Aria Richardson’s strong personality, she would find a way to repay it.

That’s why Hope Williams prepared a hundred million check to give to Aria Richardson.

Once the hundred million is returned, Aria Richardson wouldn’t owe the Knox Family anything and would face them with confidence.

Aria Richardson sniffled, grateful for such a dear friend.

Hope Williams glanced at Alexander Knox standing not far away, "Go, some things are better said openly."

Aria Richardson nodded and walked towards Alexander Knox, and Wyatt Lewis swiftly grabbed Aria Richardson’s hand.

Waylon Lewis’s face turned cold, "Wyatt Lewis!"

Wyatt Lewis stubbornly held onto Aria Richardson’s hand.

Aria Richardson glanced cautiously at Wyatt Lewis, "You should go back and deal with your facial injury first. Don’t worry about me; be careful on your way back."

Wyatt Lewis frowned.

Hope Williams gently patted Wyatt Lewis’s shoulder, "Alright, let’s go. Unless you want another fight with Alexander Knox?"

After a moment, Wyatt Lewis released Aria Richardson’s hand.

Waylon Lewis took Hope Williams into the car, turned around, and looked at Wyatt Lewis with a cold expression, "Get in the car."

Wyatt Lewis watched Aria Richardson walk towards Alexander Knox, feeling depressed, and got into the car.

Isla Sue saw everything that had just happened, looked at Aria Richardson with some concern, "Aria, how did things escalate to this today? What’s going on between you and the Lewis family’s second son?"

Aria Richardson pressed her lips tightly, "Mom, can I explain later? I need to talk to Alexander Knox, please wait for me in the car."

Isla Sue glanced at Alexander Knox, holding Aria Richardson’s hand, "Talk things over; Alexander isn’t like his mother. He still cares for you."

Aria Richardson hummed faintly; her eyes, however, were filled with hesitant confusion.

When Alexander Knox saw Aria Richardson stand before him, his eyes softened considerably, he looked over her shoulder, his eyes showing concern, "Does it still hurt?"

Aria Richardson just shook her head, "It doesn’t hurt anymore. Say what you came to tell me."

"I’ve investigated the matter at the mall today. I misunderstood you and apologize."

"Okay."

Alexander Knox noticed Aria Richardson’s indifferent expression. His gaze swept over the black car parked not far away, his eyes darkening, as he stepped closer and lightly embraced her.

Where Aria Richardson couldn’t see, his gaze towards the black car bore a profound significance, as if eager to prove something to someone inside the car.

In the car, Wyatt Lewis gripped the steering wheel tightly, his eyes filled with rising anger.

Hope Williams saw his demeanor and sighed silently, took out a prepared medicine box, rummaged through it, found an alcohol-soaked cotton swab, and handed it to Wyatt Lewis, "Apply it to the wound on your lip."

Wyatt Lewis snapped back to reality, glanced at it, accepted it, and murmured, "Thanks, sister-in-law."

Hope Williams said lightly, "I don’t know what happened between you all, but I advise you not to push Aria Richardson too hard. Your sudden affection for her might be overwhelming for her; she wasn’t prepared and doesn’t know how to respond.

As for her feelings for Alexander Knox, she probably doesn’t even know if she likes him or not; feelings can’t be rushed."

Wyatt Lewis’s expression changed slightly, "She doesn’t like Alexander Knox?"

Hope Williams was momentarily dazed by the question, then nodded, "In my opinion, yes." noveldrama

"So do I have a chance?"

Hope Williams raised an eyebrow, "I don’t know, I’m just reminding you, I can’t predict anything else."

She hoped Wyatt Lewis and Aria Richardson would be together because of Mother Knox’s attitude toward Aria Richardson; Hope Williams was worried about Aria Richardson’s future if she married into the Knox Family.

Hope Williams sighed.

The car started and slowly left.

As the car departed, Alexander Knox allowed Aria Richardson to push him away, and Aria Richardson took out the hundred million check Hope Williams had just given her and handed it to Alexander Knox.

Alexander Knox frowned, "What does this mean?"

"I’m returning the hundred million to you."

Alexander Knox’s heart trembled slightly; he didn’t take it, "Are you going to sever ties with me because you’re angry?"

Aria Richardson shook her head, "This has nothing to do with anger. I planned to repay you before, but a hundred million isn’t a small amount. I couldn’t gather that much. Now..."

"Now Wyatt Lewis gave you the hundred million? You return it to me, sever ties with me, and next, are you planning to break up and be with him instead?"

Aria Richardson blinked, "It’s not Wyatt Lewis who gave it to me, it’s Hope Williams who lent it to me."

Alexander Knox laughed sarcastically, "Fine, let’s not talk about the hundred million. Tell me what your relationship with Wyatt Lewis is all about?"

Aria Richardson looked at him, utterly baffled by his question, "What do you mean, what’s my relationship with him? It’s as normal as any relationship."

Alexander Knox laughed coldly, "Then why did you recklessly protect him during the danger? You haven’t even realized how worried you are about him."
