Chapter 156 The Truth 2
Valery approached her son-in-law smiling brightly and asked, “What is the matter, Son? Is everything alright at home?” She thought something bad had happened to her best friend, Caroline.
It never crossed her mind that her son-in-law might be visiting them because of their granddaughter who they had abandoned. She was still holding a grudge against Valencia for asking her husband not to remarry.
Mr Moore was standing behind his wife trembling. He had a bad feeling that he couldn’t shake it. He was sure that his son-in-law had found out about their daughter’s sickness. Since his daughter passed away, his son-in-law had always been respectful towards him.
Xavier looked at his mother-in-law coldly, but he didn’t utter a word. He walked to Wayne and said, “Please take Kent with you and bring Mrs Moore to my car.” Wayne asked his fellow bodyguards to keep an eye on Mr Moore. Then they left for the hospital.
Mrs Moore was so frightened; Xavier was sitting beside her with his eyes closed. The atmosphere in the car was tense.
Valery looked at her son-in-law and asked, “Son, where are you taking me?” Xavier opened his eyes, then he looked at her mother-in-law coldly, but he didn’t utter a word.
When Mrs Moore saw the hospital, she nearly peed at herself. Did her son-in-law discover her fake sickness? It was impossible because she had covered all her tracks.
Mrs Moore was so scared she wanted to run, but she decided against it. Her son-in-law’s bodyguards were highly trained. Wayne opened his boss’ door and Kent opened Mrs Moore’s door.
They walked to Dr Smith’s office. Xavier greeted him and asked him to conduct a full examination on his mother-in-law.
When his mother-in-law heard Xavier’s words she fainted. Dr Smith rushed to Mrs Moore and asked, “President Taylor, what is wrong with Mrs Moore?” Xavier replied, “That’s why we are here to find out.”
She was quickly admitted to the private ward. Xavier sat on the sofa while the nurse was taking his mother-in-law’s blood. Wayne and Kent were guarding the door. Dr Smith took him two hours to come back with the test results.
He was beaming with joy when he approached Xavier and said, “President Taylor, I am so happy to tell you that Mrs Moore has a clean bill of health.” Xavier took a report from Dr Smith and looked at it.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Xavier asked Dr Smith to conduct an Endoscopy procedure as well. He indicated that his mother-in-law was suffering from stomach cancer.
Dr Smith hesitated and replied, “President Taylor, I think she was given a wrong diagnosis because she doesn’t have any disease.”
Xavier asked Dr Smith to double-check for him. Dr Smith went to his office and came back with an Endoscopy followed by a nurse.
Mrs Moore was given a sedative to help her relax during the procedure. Dr Smith also sprayed an anesthetic on Mrs Moore’s mouth to numb her throat.
Then Dr Smith inserted the tiny camera in her mouth down to the esophagus. Fortunately, there was nothing unusual in her digestive tract. Dr Smith looked at Xavier and said, “President Taylor, I think Mrs Moore was incorrectly diagnosed.”
Then they waited for Mrs Moore’s sedative to wear off. After an hour she woke up, then Xavier thanked Dr Smith for his help, then they left the hospital.
They drove back to the Moore mansion. The gate was still open, they parked in the driveway. Xavier looked at Kent and said, “Please take Mrs Moore into the house and bring back your colleagues.”
He stayed in the car with Wayne waiting for other bodyguards. He never said a word to his mother-in-law. His bodyguards went to their own cars, then they drove away. They were scared of the wrath of the Taylor family.
It was 5 am when Xavier and his bodyguards left the Moore mansion. Xavier asked Wayne to drive him to the Taylor mansion. Then he told the other bodyguards to go back home.
When they arrived at the Taylor mansion, Wayne took the remote and opened the gate. He parked the car in the driveway, then he got out of the car to open his boss’ door.
Xavier thanked Wayne and told him to go back to sleep. Butler Blade was already up. His eyes lit up when he saw Xavier and said, “What a pleasant surprise. How are you doing, Xavier?”
Butler Blade loved Xavier as his own son. Xavier smiled, then he hugged him and said, “All is well with me. How are you, Uncle Blade? Is my grandfather awake?”
Butler Blade smiled broadly and replied, “All is well with me too. Mr Taylor Senior is awake, but he is still in his bedroom.” Xavier went to the second floor to see his grandfather.
He knocked on the door, then he opened the door. His grandfather was reading a newspaper. He rushed to his grandfather and hugged him tightly, then he cried sorrowfully. His grandfather was so scared. What happened to his precious grandson?
When Grandpa Taylor saw his precious grandson like that, his heart ached because he loved him so much. His grandfather patted him on the back and allowed him to cry.
When he was done crying, his grandfather’s pajamas were wet with tears. His grandfather took his handkerchief and helped him to wipe the tears.
Grandpa Taylor looked at his precious grandson with questioning eyes. Xavier gave him Valencia’s file. Grandfather Taylor’s eyes were as big as saucers when he was reading Valencia’s file.
When he was done, Xavier gave him Mrs Moore’s medical report. He was so upset; he took his phone and asked his son, John, to come to his bedroom.
Grandpa Taylor’s eldest son, John Taylor, was still sleeping when he received a call from his father. He rushed to his father’s bedroom without slippers.
He was scared that something had happened to his father because his father had heart disease. He was surprised to see Xavier in his father’s bedroom crying.
John Taylor hugged Xavier tightly and asked, “What happened, Son?” His father gave him Valencia’s file, then he gave him Mrs Moore’s file.
John couldn’t believe his eyes. He was fuming with anger. Who gave the Moore family confidence to deceive the Taylor family? Are they easy to bully?
