When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 835: The Villain Complains First

Chase Fletcher had a headache. He placed his hands on his hips and sighed; he hadn’t thought so much about it. He just didn’t want Rachel Sherman to suffer any grievances.

But upon calming down and thinking about it, he realized Rachel had a point.

So he didn’t insist but looked at her intently and promised, "Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer. I’ll check the surveillance footage."

Jasmine Quinn was sent to the hospital, severely burned, and every moment was excruciating pain and discomfort.

She even somewhat regretted what she had done.

"Doctor, will I be disfigured? Will there be scars? Will I look ugly? Will I be able to wear off-shoulder clothes again?"

In the operating room, three doctors were performing emergency treatment on her, too busy to answer her questions.

"Ah...!" She gritted her teeth in pain, feeling as if her skin was being torn off. "It hurts, take it easy, doctor... please, take it easy."

"Don’t move, your injuries are severe."

"This needs immediate treatment, necrosis and infection could lead to amputation."

Jasmine was utterly terrified, enveloped by immense fear, and she regretted everything deeply.

Half an hour later, the doctors assessed the degree of her burns and started cleaning and disinfecting the burn areas, and the sharp screams continued to resonate from the operating room.

It hurts, so much!

On the way to the hospital, she had called Mrs. Fletcher, so it wasn’t long after she entered the operating room that Mrs. Fletcher hurriedly arrived.

"Doctor, doctor, what’s going on? How did this happen? Is my niece’s burn very serious?"

"It’s quite serious; the burned area is large. There are doctors providing emergency treatment, and she might need a skin graft. Her entire neck, chest, and arm are burned."

Every word made Mrs. Fletcher’s heart pound with fear as she waited anxiously outside the operating room, dreading that something major would go wrong.

It’s a weekday, and getting injured at the company, the Fletcher Group couldn’t escape the blame.

Soon, Mr. Fletcher rushed over urgently as well, "What’s going on? Jasmine got burned?"

"Yes..."

The reason Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher were so anxious was that Jasmine Quinn was the daughter of Quinn, who was a fellow soldier with Ian Fletcher. On his deathbed, Quinn entrusted his daughter to his care and arranged for her to join the Fletcher Group.

Military people value friendships highly, so with this incident happening to Jasmine, Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher, as elders, were naturally worried.

"How could she get burned at work?" Mrs. Fletcher was puzzled. "And the doctor said it’s quite severe; it wasn’t just a foot burn, but her neck and arm."

Mr. Fletcher’s expression changed slightly, becoming somewhat serious.

Mrs. Fletcher looked at him with confusion, "What did she tell you?"

"She said it was Rachel who splashed her." Mr. Fletcher furrowed his brow slightly. "She said she just asked Rachel if she was with Chase, and then Rachel splashed her."

"That’s impossible." Mrs. Fletcher immediately denied it. "Rachel couldn’t do such a thing; she has no motive. She’s already married to Chase."

Mr. Fletcher didn’t speak, sighed softly again, and turned to gaze at the tightly closed doors of the operating room.

Really hope this girl is okay.

At this moment, in the company, rumors about Rachel Sherman using hot water to splash Jasmine Quinn had spread—

"I saw it with my own eyes; Jasmine’s injuries are quite serious, with large areas of her neck and chest burned, and the skin on her arm was peeled off."

"The screams were truly heart-wrenching. The water must have been boiling hot, steaming on the floor."

"What kind of grudge could be so big? How could Secretary Sherman do that? She’s already married to President Fletcher."

"So she acts spoiled and arrogant!" Someone rolled their eyes, with a look of enjoying the drama, "I don’t think this marriage will last long."
