Chapter 126

The hospital where Matthew was staying belonged to the Lawson family, so an entire floor had been reserved for

him. It was a peaceful atmosphere. Outside, bodyguards stood watch; inside, medical staff were on standby

around the clock. Kayla linked her arm with Arnold's and held a bouquet in her other hand. Her stiletto heels

echoed crisply in the quiet corridor, creating a jarring contrast.

They soon arrived at the door to the ward. Just as Arnold was about to greet his grandfather, a metal tray came

hurtling toward them, stopping his words. The tray hit the door before clattering to the floor and rolling to a stop.

The surroundings returned to silence. Matthew, with his back to them, remained in a foul mood. "Get out!"

Arnold pressed his lips together, choosing not to respond.

Kayla, clutching her chest as if frightened, said with a quiver in her voice, "Mr. Lawson Senior, I-| cto see

you..."

Matthew still didn't turn around and coldly dismissed her with a huff, "Well, you've seen me. You can leave."

"Mr. Lawson Senior, | know it was my fault. If it weren't for me, Arnie wouldn't have run away from the

engagement party. But... we really couldn't help ourselves. Can't you support us?"

Tears welled up in Kayla's eyes.

Arnold frowned, admonishing her, "Kayla, go home! Don't say such things!"

Now wasn't the tto bring that up.

On the day of the engagement party, Arnold defied Matthew for the first time, insisting on staying in the hospital

with Kayla.

The bodyguards who were sent to remove him didn't dare lay a hand on him, resulting in a standoff that lasted

all night.

Meanwhile, Felicia had gone missing.

As a result, the engagement party ended in an awkward silence.

Rumors spread that Matthew was becoming senile, stubbornly interfering with Arnold and Kayla's relationship. In

a fit of rage, he coughed up blood and fell into a coma for several days. Although he had escaped danger, he

was still weak, and no one in the Lawson family dared defy him again. They feared he might go through more

torment.

Kayla didn't just refuse to apologize; she was adding fuel to the fire.

Hearing her words, Matthew finally turned around. His cloudy eyes were sharp as an eagle's as they fixed on

Kayla. He said coldly, "As long as I'm alive, you'll never set foot in the Lawson residence again. Get out!"

"Mr. Lawson Senior, | don't understand why you dislikeso much," Kayla replied, biting her lip in a show of

extrgrievance.

If one were to compare Matthew's past attitude toward her, while it was never particularly warm, it wasn't as

vehemently hateful as it was now.

Ever since Felicia showed up, everything had changed.

Matthew found it laughable. When Kayla was younger, he had dismissed her playfulness, thinking nothing of it.

But now, she couldn't

even learn to tread carefully around

him.

Not only that, she had also used self-harm to force Arnold to leave the engagement party, turning the Lawson

family's grand preparations into a joke. Today, she had the audacity to ask why he disliked her. Did she really

need to ask?

"Get out! Everyone, get out!"

Matthew picked up something nearby and hurled it across the ward. Kayla, frightened, ducked behind Arnold.

Together, they retreated awkwardly from the ward.

Arnold's expression was cold as he said, "Kayla, you should go home."

"Arnie "

"Go back!" Arnold's tone was firm, clearly impatient.

This was the first the had ever scolded her. Pouting, Kayla felt even more wronged.

Just then, shouts from the nurses inside the ward rang out. "Doctor! Mr. Lawson Senior has coughed up blood

again!"
