Chapter 639:
Our mindsets were completely different. I couldn’t convince him, so I decided not to argue with him anymore.
At that moment, my mother spoke up, “Ryan, move out of my house today, or I’ll throw all your things out!”
Hearing this, Ryan panicked.
“What do you mean? I helped you solve your daughter’s big problem. Are you going to treat me like this?”
“Who asked you to get involved in her affair? Let me tell you, I have nothing to do with you now. If you continue to pester me in my house, I will call the police!”
After that, my mother pulled me away. Once I got my mother home, she threw all of Ryan’s things out and threatened to call the police if he didn’t leave.
At first, Ryan stood at the door, refusing to leave. But later, my mother exposed the truth—Connie had found a rich man and kicked him out. There were many old neighbors watching from outside, and in the collective pressure from the crowd, Ryan finally left, helpless, with his luggage on his back.
Seeing him walk away through the window, my mother frowned and said, “Where do you think he can go? Will he end up homeless?”
I knew my mom had a soft heart.
“Mom, don’t worry. He’s not that old. He’s still capable and has business experience. He won’t starve to death.”

“Although he hurt us before, he was once my husband. I don’t want to see him live a miserable life,” my mother nodded, speaking with a touch of sadness. I lowered my head, not saying anything, as I began to worry about Herbert’s injury.
When I was at the hospital, I asked the nurse. I was told that the doctor was stitching Herbert’s wound. It was deep and long. Just thinking about it caused me pain.
My mother seemed to sense my concern.
“I know you’re worried about Herbert. Go to the hospital and have a look.”
“It’s all thanks to him this time. Otherwise, Betty and Anne might have really had an accident. You and he already have two children. Even if you can’t be together in the future, you must get along well for their sake. For Lucas and Lucky, you two are family, even if you’re not in love with each other.”
“Mom, I’ll go to the hospital to see him. Call me if you need anything,” I said.
“Okay.”
My mother nodded. After that, I quickly got up and left the house.
I hurried to the emergency room. After asking the nurse, I found out that Herbert had just been sent to the ward after the operation. I asked for the ward number and rushed over.
I found the ward number the nurse had mentioned, but I saw that Connor was standing in front of the room, frowning.
“Miss Stepanek?”
When Connor saw me, his face brightened, as if he had seen a savior.
“How’s the operation?” I asked, approaching him. The wound on his leg was so large. There must be a lot of stitches, right?
