Chapter 139Â
Rogelio’s mouth twitched, “You might as well let me marry into the family.”Â
“Nonsense, how could you marry into the family!”Â
Bryson laughed, “Mom, Rogelio is just like that, don’t be mad.”Â
“By the way, why haven’t we seen your son–in–law yet?” Lizeth peeled an orange. “The meal will be ready soon, your distinguished son–in–law can’t be late, right?”Â
Bryson’s face turned serious, then he suddenly looked at Dorothy, impatiently urging, “Dorothy, you ask quickly.”Â
She said calmly, “Why don’t you call yourself?”Â
Seeing her refute him, Bryson didn’t look very good.Â
Lizeth sneered, “Dorothy, that’s your husband, how could you let your father embarrass himself by urging his son–in–law?”Â
Lizeth was used to being outspoken and domineering, but because her family was wealthy, she was the most satisfactory daughter–in–law to MadamÂ
Acosta.Â
Even Gianna and Alyson had to give in a little.Â
Dorothy furrowed her brows, picked up her phone and checked the messages. Dwayne had said he was on his way ten minutes ago.Â
At the same time, Dwayne’s car was already nearby when his phone suddenly rang.Â
The caller ID showed Sonia.Â
He picked up the receiver, but the voice on the other end was not Sonia’s. “Is this Mr. Lambert? Ms. Frazier and the children were in an accident on the way, they are now in the hospital…”Â
Dwayne’s expression tightened, and he hung up the phone.Â
He glanced at the Acosta family, remained silent for a moment, and instructed the driver, “Turn around and go to the hospital.”Â
“But Mrs. Lambert…”Â

He emphasized again, “Go to the hospital first.”Â
The driver didn’t say anything, turned the car around, and left.Â
When Dwayne arrived at the ward, Sonia had her left foot in a cast, and Brenden wasn’t doing much better either. Although he didn’t injure any vital organs, he had more external wounds on his body than Sonia.Â
Sonia sat on the edge of the hospital bed, and when she saw him, she stood up with her crutches and rushed into his arms, “Dwayne, I’m so scared, I’m afraid I’ll never see you and Brenden again!”Â
