Chapter 533 Refuse To Help
Sharon pursed her lips and then said, "She's just being dramatic. I fell once when I was pregnant. It wasn't a big deal."
Adrian gave her a sharp look. "This is different. Can't you see the blood under her? Why are you still here? Lead the guests away. Do you want them here forever?"
They quickly went about dispersing the crowd.
"Please accept our apologies for this disruption. Everything will be alright and
you can return to your seats first. The ambulance will arrive shortly." They told this to the guests, who then dispersed, though a few who were
close to Madeline stayed. Adrian rushed to assist Juliana, who was struggling to walk. "Mom, it's chaotic here. I'm worried you'll be bumped into. Please find a seat and stay
out of the way."
Getting up could be too much for her if she were to fall.
Juliana remained composed. She instructed, "Kathy, get some hot water. Don't worry. Madeline, a doctor will be here soon."
Madeline cried. I don't want to lose my baby."
Remembering Norah was still there, Juliana grabbed Adrian's hand. "Bring Norah back. She's a doctor and can provide basic first aid. Hurry up!"
Sharon scoffed. "Do you really think she'll help Madeline? It's really not that
simple"
Sharon questioned Norah's willingness to help the woman who had previously destroyed her marriage.
Confronted by Juliana's insistence, Adrian hesitately walked towards the hotel exit and intercepted Norah as she was leaving.
"Norah, my mom trusts your skills as a doctor and wants you to help check on Madeline. Will you do her us a favor and come back with me?"
Susanna said, "Why should Norah help her? And who do you think you are? Stay out of our way!"
Susanna knew that except for Juliana, other members of the Carter family might have treated Norah poorly. Her harsh words left Adrian at a loss for words.
Norah remarked, "Susanna has a point, Mr. Carter. You should look for someone else. I'm not that close to you guys."
They were aware of the situation at the wedding hall and chose to leave because they wanted nothing to do with Madeline,
"The ambulance is nearly here, Mr. Carter. Please go back."
Linking Susanna's arm, Norah walked past Adrian without looking back. She distanced herself yet remained polite.
Adrian clenched his teeth, anger shining in his eyes. Norah now seemed untouchable to them.
Juliana sighed deeply at Adrian's inability to convince Norah. Thankfully, the ambulance arrived on time. The paramedics quickly loaded Madeline onto a
stretcher and headed to the hospital. Susanna, waiting at the roadside for her ride, watched the ambulance speed away.
"I've observed that the Carters tend to exploit you. They were aware of your profession as a doctor so they asked for your assistance with Madeline. Who do they think they are making such demands?"
She had once believed Juliana was considerate towards Norah, but now it appeared that she only cared about her own self-interests.
Hearing this, Norah said with a slight smile, "Interactions between individuals are rooted in mutual benefit. If there is no advantage to be gained, there is no need to interact. Susanna, what do you want from me?”
