Chapter 75
Thinking about what might happen next, Yanina called Yetta. “Yetta, listen to me. Soon, those people who moved you out of your room yesterday will come to apologize. Just go to sleep or pretend to if you’re not tired. Make them wait a while.”
“What are you talking about, Yanina?” Yetta asked, confused.
“Never mind what I’m saying. Just do it!” Yanina said, ending the call with a smile as she glanced at the hospital building.
Within an hour, her video had been commented and reposted by many people. Due to the visual evidence, the public opinion quickly gained momentum
At this moment, Julian Foley, the deputy mayor, also learned about the situation. It was no longer possible to cover it up.
Julian quickly called his wife. “What’s going on? How did a simple hospital visit turn into such a big commotion? What were you all doing?”
Brittany Garner realized she had been set up and quickly tried to distance herself from the situation. “It was Devon who took Sophie to the hospital. He meant well. He was afraid the regular rooms were noisy, so he just wanted Sophie to stay in quier VIP room. Unfortunately, there were no single rooms available, and the doctor said we had to sort it out ourselves. We looked at the files of the people in the VIP wards and switched rooms with that young lady.”
Julian really wanted to swear at this moment, thinking, ‘Why did 1, a smart man, end up marrying such a stupid wife who has a group of stupid relatives!”
But it was too late to say anything now.
“You guys better switch the rooms back right now! Go apologize to that lady! Hurry up!” Julian demanded.
Brittany was stunned, wondering, Why? Does Sophie, a rich young lady, not deserve a single room?”
She said, “It’s no big deal! I checked, and the person we switched rooms with has no powerful background. She’s just an ordinary person! What are you worried about?”
Julian warned her, “Do you want to go back to your hometown?”

Because of Brittany’s stubborn nature, Julian had made her stay in her rural hometown for ten years, only bringing her back in recent years. This warning scared Brittany a little.
In Yvale, she was praised and admired everywhere she went. She felt so comfortable and didn’t want to return to the countryside. So she said, “It’s just an apology. I’ll go, okay?”
Julian hung up the phone but still felt uneasy. He was still wondering whom he might have offended to get into this
situation.
“Keaton, keep an eye on Brittany and make sure she apologizes sincerely! Get Sophie to go too. This matter must be taken seriously, Julian ordered.
Keaton Todd nodded and left the deputy mayor’s office.
When Keaton got to the hospital, Brittany was feeding Sophie. Keaton, you are here!” Sophie greeted him.
“Hey, Sophie. Are you still feeling sick?” Keaton asked with a smile..
Sophie shook her head. Tm all better now,”
However, Brittany looked a bit embarrassed.

“Mom, what’s wrong?” Sophie asked,
面積:22%≤
“Nothing. Rest for a bit. I need to go out Brittany said as she left the hospital room with Keaton.
“Mrs. Foley, haven’t you said sorry yet?” Keaton’s words carried a hint of warning.
Brittany’s face slightly darkened as she whispered. “Ill go now!”
Keaton returned to the room and took Sophie out with him. This was what Julian wanted.
The three of them came to Yetta’s hospital room, and she was sleeping at the moment. A tall man was sitting on the side.
Keaton recognized the man and quickly went over to say hello. Zak? What a coincidence meeting you here. How are you related to this lady?”
Zak stood up. “Keaton! This is my girlfriend. She just fell asleep. If you need to say something, let’s go outside.”
Keaton glanced at Brittany, wondering, ‘Didn’t Brittany say she checked Yetta’s background and found she was just an ordinary person? How could an ordinary person know Zak? Everyone in Yvale knows that Zak is the assistant to Cameron, the head of the Zamora family. Cameron is elusive. Usually, people can only get to meet Zak. Offending Zak is like offending Cameron, and that means offending Everbright Group. This matter needs to be handled carefully.
Brittany didn’t know Zak’s background and put on airs as the deputy mayor’s wife. Her head was held high, and her tone was slightly arrogant. “Sorry about yesterday. You know my daughter Sophie was too delicate to stay in a regular room, so we asked your girlfriend to move out first.”
Zak frowned, thinking, ‘Her daughter is delicate. Isn’t Yetta delicate?‘
Keaton noticed things were going wrong and quickly chimed in Zak, Mr. Foley heard about what had happened yesterday and sent me to apologize. We are really sorry. We hope you and your girlfriend can forgive our rudeness.
As Keaton was speaking, he signaled Brittany with a look to stop talking. But Brittany didn’t notice at all. She just gave Zak a dismissive glance and sneered, “Alright, I’ve apologized, so I’ll leave now. Sophie is waiting for me”
Throwing out this sentence, Brittany didn’t even look at Zak and turned to leave.
Zak watched Brittany’s back with a slight frown, wondering, ‘Is this an apology?”
Keaton shook his head, thinking, That clueless woman is really frustrating!
“Zak, Mrs. Foley didn’t mean it that way. She Keaton pointed to his head and whispered. “She’s got some brain issues!”
Zak glanced at Keaton, replying, “I don’t care what’s wrong with her. I don’t want to blow this out of proportion. Just return the room to us, and pretend this never happened.”
Keaton nodded. Behind Zak was Everbright Group, so to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was better for them to switch the rooms back.
But before Keaton could speak, Brittany pointed at Zak and started yelling furiously, “Don’t push your luck. We’ve already apologized, so why do we have to switch rooms back? No matter who comes, I won’t do it. Let’s see who dares to force us to switch rooms today!”
Keaton was vexed. He knew Brittany was difficult, but he had never expected her to be this unreasonable. He really felt worried for Julian..
Keaton said, “Mrs. Foley, Zak is the assistant to Mr. Zamora of Evertiright Group”
Keaton tried to pull Brittany aside, but she wasn’t having any of “So what? He’s just a secretary! Can the girlfriend of a secretary be more important than my daughter?” Brittany snapped, looking totally arrogant.

Chapter 75
This is what Julian wants, Keaton said, using Julian as a shield.
That still won’t do! Sophie is his own daughter. How can he side with outsiders?” Brittany was about to continue her rant when Sophie suddenly grabbed her hand from behind.
“Mom, it’s alright. Let’s switch rooms. Tm fine now!” After speaking. Sophie looked at Zak, her eyes filled with curiosity.
Brittany wanted to say more, but Keaton gave her a warning look as if saying, “If you continue this fuss, Julian will send you back to the countryside!”
“Find an empty room!” Brittany had no choice but to compromis
Before long, Keaton informed Zak that the VIP room was ready and that they could move back in.
Zak looked at Yetta, who was pretending to sleep. Without revealing her act, he gently picked her up and took her back to
the VIP room
As for Sophie, she stood at the hospital room door with a smile waiting
“Zak, right! I had a high fever yesterday and didn’t know something unpleasant had happened in the hospital. I want to apologize to you and your girlfriend. I hope you can forgive me Sophie said with an apologetic smile
Zak nodded, thinking. These are the right words for an apology!
“It’s okay. You were in a dangerous situation at that time. We understand,” Zak replied politely.
Theard you were Cameron’s assistant? How has he been doing lately?” Sophie suddenly asked.
Zak raised an eyebrow slightly. “You know my boss?”
“We’re very well–acquainted.”
