The scene in front of Scarlett was heartbreaking. She didn't react until two seconds later. She asked, "Mrs.
Tucker, what can | do?" Mrs. Tucker said, "The medicine. Ms. Reed, helpget the medicine for Linley." Scarlett didn't know where the medicine was. She walked over, hugged Linley and said, "Linley, calm down. It's me, Scarlett. No man can hurt you. Believe me." Linley kept silent and fell into a trance.
Soon, Mrs. Tucker got the medicine and helped Linley take it. Linley felt sleepy soon.

Linley lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling blankly.
Mrs. Tucker wiped tears and walked out of the room.
Scarlett followed her and said, "Mrs.
Tucker, | would like to have a talk with you." Mrs. Tucker fell into a trance and said, "OK." They returned to the small living room.
Scarlett held a glass of water and said with a sinking heart, "I'm Scarlett Reed. Linley may have never mentionedto you. Five years ago, Linley saved me. At that time, Darnell planned to hurt me. Linley knew about that and reminded me. Then | called the police, and Darnell was sent to the prison." Scarlett felt guilty and added, "Mrs. Tucker, I'm sorry. | didn't know that Darnell would hurt Linley." Mrs. Tucker was lost in thought and kept silent for a while.
Scarlett wiped tears and said, "Mrs. Tucker, Linley has suffered a lot. It's all because of me. | need to be responsible for Linley." Hearing that, Mrs. Tucker reacted and said, "Ms. Reed, what do you mean?" Scarlett said, "I'm sorry that 1 have asked my secretary to investigate your living condition. That year, Linley remindedand saved me. Linley is in bad condition now. Mr. Tucker and you are getting older. | have no other motives. | just hope that Linley recovers soon. | want to see the happy and cute Linley again." Scarlett said as she took a bank card from her bag.
There was not much money on the card. It was about 300,000 dollars. Linley could use the money to improve her family's economy temporarily.

Mrs. Tucker said, "Ms. Reed..." Scarlett knew what Mrs. Tucker wanted to say. Scarlett had cup with an idea on the way and said, "I will ask my secretary to help you move to the apartment tomorrow. My secretary will take an agreement to you. You can tell Linley that | lend the money and the apartment to you. She needs to payback. As long she recovers, the money is not much for her." After Mrs. Tucker heard that, her eyes turned red. She said, "Ms. Reed, thank you very much! Although you said that Linley saved you, Linley was your classmate and it was her responsibility to remind you!" Scarlett was moved by what Mrs. Tucker had said. Linley was kind. Of course, her parents were also very kind.
However, Linley had suffered a lot. Scarlett believed that everything would go smoothly for Linley.
Scarlett said, "I have another thing to discuss with you." Mrs. Tucker said, "Ms. Reed, you take Linley as your friend sincerely. Go ahead. As long as it's good for Linley, | won't be opposed to it." Mrs. Tucker only had one daughter. Of course, she didn't have the heart to see her daughter live such a tragic life. Linley was still young.
Scarlett compressed her lips and said, "I have investigated Linley's marriage. Her husband is not a reliable man.
If you believe me, | will let him divorce Linley.” Mrs. Tucker said, "The bastard disagrees to get a divorce! If he agreed to divorce Linley, Linley would have divorced him already! Ms. Reed, if you're able to let the bastard divorce Linley and save Linley, | will be willing to do anything for you!"
