Everyone was eager to help the Hayes family weather this crisis. Thanks to the overwhelming support from netizens, the Hayes family’s fortunes improved dramatically. Not only did their company bounce back, but it also began thriving like never before.

each of their faces.
“Mom, this strategy is brilliant,”
“Max praised.
Anna licked arms with Fiona and said, “Mom, you’re so amazing”
Andrew was thoroughly pleased as well.
Suddenly, the door burst open, and all four of them were started.
They turned toward the doorway, only to see Eleanor storming in angrily.
“Mom,” Andrew called, and all of the family members shot to their feet.
Fiona quickly asked, “Mom, what brings you back? Shouldn’t you be in the hospital?”
Eleanor snapped, “In the hospital? How could I stay there after what you four have done? Scheming against Stella like this? If she wakes up and knows I she’ll be so furious. It kill her. Do you want her to die!”
After Eleanor finished speaking, she let out a fit of harsh coughing.
Andrew hurried over. “Mom, we really had no other choice. But look. The company is bouncing back.”
“Get away from me.” Eleanor shoved Andrew aside forcefully.
She said, “The company is doing better now, but do you even realize what the Carver family is like? They never forget a slight. You’ve completely crossed
them this time.
“Even if they don’t openly retaliate against our company, what about Max and Stella, especially Stella? There’s no telling what Troy might do. Did any of you think about the consequences?”
Andrew explained, “We accounted for that. We’ll assign bodyguards to them. Nothing will happen on our watch. if they dare to make a move, expose them publicly.”
Eleanor could barely stop herself from calling Andrew hopelessly naive in her heart. She ordered, “Take those news stories dor
them”

“Mom, it’s too late, Andrew replied.
Eleanor nearly collapsed several times, but Mary’s words echoed in her mind. Eleanor thought, ‘Mary is right, if anything happens to me, there’ll be no one left to stand up for Stella. I can’t collapse, absolutely not”

She ordered. “Someone, fetch me the whip”
She was dead set on giving Andrew a thrashing he wouldn’t soon forget now
The servants didn’t dare disobby, but fina shed forward to block Eleanor’s path.
Fiona said, “Mom, don’t hit him. It was my idea. If you must punish someone, punish me instead
“I won’t hit you, You’re my daughter in law. If hit you, people would talk behind my back. But Andrew is my son. No one can stop mother from disciplining her child,” Eleanor declared,
The whip was brought. Eleanor, truly enraged, gave Andrew Lash after lash.
From childhood, no matter what trouble Andrew caused, Eleanor had never hit him so mercilessly. However, because of Stella’s matter, Eleanor whop Andrew relentlessly.
Eleanor’s phone suddenly rang. Hearing this, Fiona hastily interjected, “Mom, your phone is ringing. Could it be something important?”
However, Eleanor wouldn’t listen at all.
Anna rushed forward and threw her arms around Andrew to protect him.
Anna said, “Grandma, don’t hit Dad, Hit me instead
“Get away from here,” Eleanor snapped.
“No, I won’t. You can’t hit Dad,” Anna cried.
Eleanor snarled, “Fine. Then you’ll take the beating too.
After that, Eleanor lashed out with the whip, showing absolutely no mercy.
Andrew and Max could no longer stand by. One shielded Anna while the other lunged to wrest the whip from Eleanor’s grip.
Eleanor snapped, “Max, don’t you dare.”
Eleanor somehow had great strength. She clung to the whip tightly.
Max didn’t back down either, “Grandma, Anna is weak. Don’t hit her.”
“Back off,” Eleanor barked.
But Max stood his ground.
Eleanor warned sternly. “Mark my words. If you don’t get out of my way right now,
Thit you, too.”
Eleanor pulled back the whip with all her might, but Max pulled just as hard. As a result, Max’s youthful strength left Eleanor completely outmatched.
Just as Eleanor was about to be pulled off balance and risk falling, Fiona cried out, “Mom, the hospital just called. They found Rh–null blood type donors. They’re on their way to the hospital. We need to go how
Eleanor instantly dropped the whip, and the entire family rushed to the hospital.
Upon their arrival, they found that the two Rh-pull blood type donors had already given blood
Eleanor clung tightly to both of their hands, refusing to let go. Tears welled in her eyes as she gazed at them with profound gratitude.
Fiona promised by saying, “We’ve settled on your compensation, and we’ll announce it publicly attomenow’s press conference.”

Eleanor said, “I’m much better now. Don’t worry. I probably be discharged before you are, so focus on getting your strength back.”
Stella could tell Eleanor was telling the truth, and she finally felt relieved.
Before leaving, Eleanor said, “Stella, if you don’t want your mom to stay with you tonight, just say it, okay?”
“Grandma, you should go rest now,” Stella said.
Eleanor nodded understandingly
“I’ll go take care of Grandma,” Anna said. She followed Eleanor out.
