Chapter 1785: Chapter 1788: The one she wants to kill is her own mother
Evelyn Lucas’s words completely dispelled Robbie Bright’s concerns.
He hesitated only slightly before making a decision.
“Alright, those who achieve great things don’t fuss over trifles. You’re right, I shouldn’t waste this great opportunity for love and affection.”
Evelyn Lucas heard this, and with a slight smile, said, “That’s right. Mom taught me from a young age to prioritize the bigger picture. I believe she will surely understand our intentions.”
In the past, to Evelyn Lucas, Tara Hammond was the pillar that supported her entry into high society.
But now, to Evelyn, Tara Hammond was a stumbling block.
To climb to a higher position, to gain more wealth and power, she could sell her own body, her own love.
Now, she’s merely selling her biological mother.
Ha…
To Evelyn Lucas, who has experienced countless battles, this is merely a trivial matter.
“Dad, let’s go in. Take this chance to bid mom a proper farewell.”
Robbie Bright instructed all his subordinates to guard the door, preventing anyone from entering.
While he and Evelyn Lucas entered the ward alone.

When the two entered, Tara Hammond on the hospital bed happened to wake up.
Due to the surgery, the bandages on Tara Hammond’s face had already been removed.
The wound on the right side of her face, which had burst open, had been stitched up again.
At this moment, she lay on the bed, her face showing a sickly pallor.
And that once delicate and gentle face was now half covered in knife wounds from a sharp blade, and the other half a mess of flesh and blood from being scraped on the ground.
“Tara…” After all, she was the woman he had loved for many years. Seeing Tara in this state, Robbie Bright couldn’t help but step forward.
But before he could touch her, Tara Hammond, lying on the hospital bed, propped herself up and threw a water cup from the bedside cabinet at him.
“Get out, get out of here… Robbie Bright, you’ve really done me justice!”
“Tara, Tara, listen to me…”
“Get out, I won’t listen… just get out…”
With every word she spoke, her face was tormented by unbearable pain.
But she hated Robbie Bright, hated his betrayal, hated that he dared to marry Jeremy Cooper behind her back.
Think of Tara Hammond, once so high and mighty, manipulating this man and Theodore Lucas in her hands for over twenty years, only to end up being tricked by these two men.
That press conference, if it weren’t for Theodore Lucas, if it weren’t for Robbie Bright, she wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Tara Hammond’s expression turned ferocious, and because of her intense movements and expressions, the freshly stitched wound on her face burst open again.
Bright red blood flowed all over her face, combined with her fierce expression and swollen cheeks, making her look to Robbie Bright even more like the legendary wicked woman.
Robbie Bright unconsciously stepped back.
“I… Tara… I’ll come see you another day. Don’t get worked up, just rest well…”
Robbie Bright gave Evelyn Lucas a look.
After taking one last look at Tara on the bed, he left the ward without looking back.
After Robbie Bright left, Tara Hammond finally couldn’t hold on anymore and hugged Evelyn Lucas, bursting into tears.
“Evelyn… Evelyn… Mom’s face, mom’s face…”
“Mom, don’t be afraid, your face will be alright, it will be alright…” Evelyn Lucas hugged Tara Hammond back, crying uncontrollably as well.
Her tears flowed even more abundantly and fiercely than Tara’s.
These tears aren’t fake; they are Evelyn Lucas’s genuine sorrow.
She had to kill her own biological mother.
The mother who had raised her from a young age, who had educated her.
Evelyn Lucas knew that only by shedding tears now,
could she harden her heart later and take action against Tara Hammond.
