Chapter 864 She Left
“What is it?” Jason hurried over to the girl on the bed. “My father didn’t bother to ask me for my opinion at all. He was standing right outside my door, yet he didn’t even bother to come in and take a look at me.” Mayaboy was disappointed at her father’s acts.
After all, she was their daughter—she was someone who shared their blood, a product of both her parents. I understand that they value their sons more than their daughters, but how can they be so cold and heartless toward me?
Jason responded with a slow sigh. “It’s all going to get better soon. I know the way I’m handling this might be hurtful toward you, but I don’t have any other choice. They are your parents, after all,” he uttered as he gently wiped the tears off her face.
She shook her head. “I’m not blaming you for anything at all. I just feel disappointed in my parents. I’ve always been a thoughtful child—I’ve done all the house chores since I was 10, I took care of my younger brother, and I even helped out with the work on the farm!
Yet, they still don’t show the slightest bit of care for me. My father just sold me off a second time.” Her lips curled into a bitter smile as she spoke. “Why do I need parents like them? Forget it. I’m just sorry you had to pay such a huge sum of money for this.”
“Money’s not a problem.” His heart ached as he wiped her tears away once more. “From now on, I’ll be the one who loves and cares for you.”
Upon hearing his words, she looked up at the man before her eyes—her vision was clouded with tears again.
…
Oliver had expected Jason’s assistant to take a while to prepare the cash since it was a large sum of 220,000. To Oliver’s surprise, Jason’s assistant handed him the total sum in cash. He felt as if he was on cloud nine right then! Oliver couldn’t contain his curiosity when he saw all the money before his eyes. “What does your boss work as? How rich is he?”
“What has that got to do with you?” the assistant asked with a cold expression.
“Of course it has got something to do with me! If he gets married to my daughter, he’ll be my son-in-law. We’ll all be family then!” Oliver beamed.
“Please don’t forget what you promised President Murray. You are supposed to cut all contact with them.” The assistant’s tone remained as cold as before.
Oliver scratched his head for a moment. “Forget it! I’ll just assume I no longer have this daughter from now on!” He then picked up the briefcase full of money before he left the hospital. He didn’t ask about his daughter at all.
Meanwhile, Mayaboy and Jason were both in the ward. “I need you to help me with something, townsman,” she said as she turned to him.
He chuckled. “My name is Jason Murray. You can call me Jason from now on.” She pressed a hand over her mouth and giggled lightly upon hearing what he said. “Jason, can you help me with something?”
“What is it?” “I’d like to change my name,” she replied. “You want to change your name?” he asked.
She nodded. “Since you paid for me, I belong to you now. Let me take your surname. Also, I don’t like the name ‘Mayaboy,’ and I prefer the name I gave myself. Savannah. Savannah Murray. How does that sound?”
“It sounds great. Alright. I’ll get someone to do this immediately,” Jason replied. Soon enough, he managed to get someone to handle the paperwork for changing Mayaboy’s name.
After receiving her new ID and seeing the name ‘Savannah Murray’ on it, a wide grin appeared on her face.
…
Savannah’s injuries were much better after a few days of staying in the hospital. Meanwhile, Jason had completed all the necessary procedures and was prepared to bring Savannah back to Yucaria with him. “Are we about to leave soon?” Savannah asked Jason. The color in her cheeks had returned after a few days of rest.
“Yeah. We’ll leave on a plane tomorrow. I’ll bring you home. My house is really nice, so I’m sure you’ll like the place,” he uttered. “A plane! I’ve never sat on a plane in my whole life,” she said with a bashful smile.
“It’s fine. There’s always a first for everything.” Jason slept soundly through the night, and he had dreams of him and Savannah starting a new life together.
However, when he woke up the next morning, he stepped into an empty ward to realize that Savannah was gone. All that was left was a tiny piece of paper.
