Reborn with My Genius Husband-Chapter 94: Wifey, Let’s Make It Symmetrical

Instead of hearing Mortimer Quincy sing ’Conquer,’ Holly Winslow ended up with extra homework: copying math formulas a hundred times. By the time school let out on Friday, she still wasn’t finished.

She stuffed the notebook and the math formula book, along with her homework from other subjects, into her backpack.

Mortimer Quincy glanced at his cranky wifey, a small smile playing on his lips. He then slung his backpack over his shoulder. "Still want me to sing ’Conquer’?"

Holly Winslow made a funny face at him, her expression one of pure defiance.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated. It was Wyatt Winslow.

Holly Winslow thought he was at the school gate. "Dad, we’re coming down now."

Wyatt Winslow, who was at the hospital, pursed his lips. "Holly, I’m at the hospital right now. I can’t come pick you up."

The color drained from Holly Winslow’s face. "Dad, what happened? Which hospital are you at? I’m coming to see you."

Hearing the panic in her voice, his expression softened. "I’m fine. It’s Aidan Lewis."

’Aidan Lewis?’

Holly Winslow remembered. During the second semester of their sophomore year, Aidan Lewis had provoked some thugs and gotten his leg broken with an iron pipe.

She bit her lower lip. ’She knew without even thinking that it must have been Yvonne Lewis who called Wyatt Winslow. When the Lewis family couldn’t come up with the money, their only move was to call Yvonne.’

’Yvonne Lewis was abroad right now, so there was no way she could come back.’

’In her last life, Wyatt Winslow had fronted over a hundred thousand in medical bills to treat Aidan Lewis’s leg. The Lewis family had even latched onto him after that. Later, they started demanding money from Wyatt for Aidan’s school fees, and if he refused, they would show up at their house and cause a scene.’

’After every scene, the house was a complete mess.’

’This time, she had to stop it. She couldn’t let the Lewis family latch onto Wyatt again.’

After asking Wyatt Winslow which hospital he was at, she hung up. "Mortimer, you head home first. I’m going to the hospital. Aidan Lewis’s leg was broken, and Dad is with him."

Mortimer Quincy had no good impression of the Lewis family whatsoever. He frowned, his tone leaving no room for refusal. "I’m going with you."

The two of them took a rideshare to the hospital. When they arrived at the orthopedic operating room on the third floor, Wyatt Winslow was waiting outside with Aidan Lewis’s parents.

Holly Winslow walked over and grabbed Wyatt Winslow’s hand. "Dad, I don’t feel well. Can you take me home, please?"

Wyatt Winslow instinctively shot to his feet, looking her over with concern. "Where don’t you feel well? I’ll take you to see a doctor."

Holly Winslow shook her head. "Dad, I’m just a little dizzy. I’ll be fine if I go home and lie down."

Wyatt Winslow glanced at Aidan Lewis’s parents, then quickly nodded. "I’ll take you home."

Just then, a nurse came out with a form. "Here’s the bill. Go ahead and pay it. We’ll start the surgery once it’s paid."

Aidan Lewis’s mother took the bill and froze. "It’s this much?"

Over forty thousand.

"The patient’s leg is severely injured. He’ll need a second surgery. This is just the cost for the first one."

Aidan Lewis’s parents were from the countryside and had no steady jobs. Their main source of income was hitting up Yvonne Lewis for money.

Aidan’s father instinctively looked toward Wyatt Winslow and said fawningly, "Brother-in-law, could you help us pay the medical fees? We really don’t have the money."

Not asking to borrow, but demanding.

Demanding it as a handout.

Wyatt Winslow pursed his lips. He didn’t want to get involved in Aidan Lewis’s affairs. He wouldn’t have even come if Yvonne Lewis hadn’t called and asked him to help find a doctor for the surgery.

Just as he was about to speak, Holly Winslow tugged on his sleeve. "Dad, I don’t feel well. Please take me home."

Wyatt Winslow was a businessman. After Holly Winslow’s repeated interruptions, he understood that she didn’t want him to get involved with the Lewis family’s business.

He looked at Holly for a few seconds, then said to Aidan’s father in a heavy tone, "I don’t have that much cash on me. It’s all tied up in my business. I can’t spare it."

Hearing this, Aidan’s mother grew anxious. "Brother-in-law, go borrow it from someone! You’re a capable man, you’ll surely be able to borrow it quickly."

Wyatt Winslow was long familiar with the Lewis family’s parasitic nature. He pursed his lips. "Yvonne Lewis and I are divorced. Don’t call me brother-in-law anymore."

"I’ve already borrowed a lot of money from others. I can’t borrow anymore. You’ll have to figure something out yourselves." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Seeing his firm stance, Aidan’s mother’s tone sharpened. "Even if you and Yvonne Lewis are divorced, Holly is still a Lewis! You can’t just abandon us."

Holly Winslow said firmly, "Even if I am a Lewis, it’s not illegal for my dad to not have money to pay for Aidan’s treatment. Besides, he has no obligation to."

"Go ask Yvonne Lewis yourselves."

’Yvonne Lewis would definitely give the Lewis family money. They were just trying to squeeze another sum out of Wyatt.’

Aidan’s mother had already asked Yvonne Lewis for money when the incident happened. Yvonne said it would take a few days for the funds to arrive.

’If they could extort a sum from Wyatt in the meantime, all the better.’

Aidan’s mother snapped at Holly in anger, "The adults are talking, what business does a child have interrupting!" She raised her hand to strike Holly.

Both Wyatt Winslow and Mortimer Quincy moved to block her. Wyatt was furious now, his tone colder than before. "I don’t have any money. Figure it out yourselves." With that, he turned to lead Holly away.

How could Aidan’s mother possibly let Wyatt leave? She reached out and grabbed him. "You’re not leaving until you give us the money! Otherwise, we’ll go to your house and raise hell!"

Wyatt tried to shake her off twice but couldn’t. Holly helped try to pry Aidan’s mother’s hand off, and the woman started clawing at them.

Seeing a fight break out, a large group of nurses rushed over and pulled them apart.

With a cold expression, Mortimer Quincy pulled out his phone. "Hello, police? I’m reporting an incident at Everwell Hospital, third floor. Someone is assaulting another person and trying to extort money."

The police arrived quickly. They separated Aidan’s mother from the others, took statements, and after learning the relationship between the two parties, asked if they could settle the matter privately.

Holly Winslow stepped in front of Wyatt Winslow and answered before he could, her voice firm. "Officer, we will not settle."

’Knowing the Lewis family’s personality, if they weren’t taught a lesson this time, they would just keep coming to their home to harass them.’

The police officer looked at Wyatt Winslow. Wyatt saw the red scratch marks on the back of Holly’s hand and said with a taut face, "No settlement."

Hearing them say that, the police began to follow standard procedure. "Do you have any concrete evidence?"

Mortimer Quincy, who was standing to the side, pointed to the security camera above the operating room. "You’ll know if you check the hospital’s surveillance footage. This woman’s actions toward my clie—" He paused, then corrected himself. "This woman’s actions of assaulting and threatening my uncle, as well as extorting money from him, already constitute a criminal offense."

He played a recording from his phone, and the sound of Aidan’s mother demanding money from Wyatt echoed through the hallway.

"According to Article 49 of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, theft, fraud, looting, robbery, extortion, or the intentional destruction of public or private property is punishable by five to ten days of detention, with a possible fine of up to five hundred yuan. For more serious cases, the punishment is ten to fifteen days of detention, with a possible fine of up to one thousand yuan."

The police officers were stunned for a moment, likely not expecting a student to be so familiar with the law.

In the end, after Mortimer Quincy’s intervention with the police, Aidan’s mother was sentenced to fifteen days of detention and a one-thousand-yuan fine.

The Lewis family had finally been put in their place, and a wave of satisfaction washed over Holly Winslow.

「Andor Community」

After getting out of the car, Mortimer Quincy was about to head home when Wyatt Winslow suddenly called out to him. "If you don’t have anything else to do, why don’t you join us for dinner?"

This was the perfect opportunity to get on his future father-in-law’s good side, so of course, Mortimer Quincy agreed. "Okay."

After they got home, Wyatt Winslow told the two of them to do their homework in the living room, then went into the kitchen to cook.

Glancing at the closed kitchen door, Holly Winslow gave Mortimer Quincy a quick kiss. "A reward for my hubby."

Mortimer Quincy raised an eyebrow and offered her his other cheek. "Wifey, you have to make it symmetrical."
