After getting the information from the nurse, Eliza quickly walked towards Jocelyn’s ward.

As soon as she pushed open the door, she saw Jocelyn sitting on the hospital bed. Eliza ran forward and gave Jocelyn a big hug.

“Darling, do you know that I’m about to be scared to death by you? Next time you go somewhere, can you tell me in advance? Or guarantee that your phone is on 24 hours a day.”

Eliza wanted to pinch Jocelyn’s face hard to teach her a lesson, but when she saw Jocelyn’s slightly swollen face, she thought better of it.

At the same time, a worried expression appeared on her face. “What happened to your face? Did your stepmother and stepsister hit you?”

As Eliza spoke, she rolled up her sleeves, as if she was prepared to seek justice for Jocelyn at any moment. As long as Jocelyn nodded, she would rush out and teach the mother and daughter a good lesson.

Jocelyn grabbed Eliza’s wrist and buried her head in her waist. “Eliza, I’m very happy to have you by my side. Without you as a good friend, I’m afraid I won’t be able to put up with all this any longer.”

“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly saying this?” Eliza asked, feeling puzzled.

However, she immediately came back to her senses and looked angry again. “Don’t change the topic. Answer me. Did that mother and daughter bully you again?”

“Yes,” Jocelyn admitted readily.

“I told you you should have come home with me yesterday instead of going back to the Wilson house. There’s no place for you there anymore.”

“Darling, move out. If you continue living in that house, you’ll be tortured to death by them.”

Eliza grabbed Jocelyn’s arms. She looked down at Jocelyn’s face and met her eyes. Her deep green eyes were filled with worry for her.

“Yesterday, they got gangsters to attack you in the day and at night, they abused you with their own hands. You were lucky to survive this time, but can you guarantee that you will every time?”

“Darling, sometimes I appreciate your stubbornness, but sometimes stubbornness is unnecessary. For example, that family. Do you understand what I mean?”

The way Eliza was worried about her with all her heart gave Jocelyn a trace of warmth. It was like a sunny day had finally come to a place where it was cloudy and raining all year around.

Jocelyn was in a much better mood.

“I know what you mean, Eliza. If you don’t mind, I want to stay in your house for a few days.”

“In a few days, the school will hold the summer camp. At that time, I will attend it with my classmates. When I come back from the summer camp, I only have one and a half months until graduation.”

“When I graduate, I’ll be able to leave the Wilson family once and for all.”

At this point, Jocelyn’s eyes were filled with anticipation. Everyone could tell that she really wanted to leave the Wilson family, and she couldn’t help but fantasize about it.

At the sight of Jocelyn smiling so sweetly and obediently, Eliza reached out and rubbed her head.

“| suggest you don’t go back to the Wilsons until you graduate. Who knows what horrible things those wicked people will do to you.”

“You were crying on the phone. Why? Are you worried about what happened online?”

Eliza relaxed when she coaxed Jocelyn. She sat down beside Jocelyn without hesitation.

Hearing Eliza’s concerned words, Jocelyn pursed her lips. She was not sad because of what happened online.

In fact, if not for the fact that so many messages popped up on her phone, she would have forgotten about it.

But Jocelyn didn’t deny Eliza.

Looking at her friend, who was sad because of what happened on the Internet, Eliza placed her hand on Jocelyn’s shoulder and comforted her.

“If you’re sad because of what happened online, then you must not have seen the latest news this morning.”

“That fiancé of yours has already clarified things for you on the Internet. Now, things are turning around. Everyone is envious of you, and no one says anything nasty about you.”

“You’re now the little princess everyone is envious of. Are you happy?” Eliza shook Jocelyn’s shoulder.

Aren clarified for her, but Jocelyn couldn’t bring herself to be touched. She could clearly remember the look on his face when he said that.

That superior attitude made her feel like she was as insignificant as dust on the ground.

Moreover, she used her body and dignity in exchange for that, so it was not worth being happy about..
