Chapter 238 You Have Gone Mad For That Woman
On their way there, they met a bunch of troublemakers.
The troublemakers started beating them up as soon as they saw them. His eldest son was hit so badly that he started spitting out blood. It was already too late by the time he was sent to the hospital. That woman disappeared without a trace after that incident.
The Old Master sighed again when he recalled the incident from years ago.
Those memories were still vivid in his mind and now, his second son seemed to be going down that road too. He had to be more careful.
Juju was crying so badly that she had begun to vomit. The Old Master hurried over and scolded the servants.
“Don’t you know how to take care of a child? She’s already crying like this, don’t you know how to coax her?”
The servants were frightened and they explained hurriedly.
“We tried to comfort her but the Little Miss is too stubborn. We have used all kinds of methods but she just refused to listen to us.”
“Get out, all of you!” the Old Master yelled.
The servants left in a hurry, leaving only the Old Master and the young child in the room, staring at each other.
He frowned, “Don’t cry! Aren’t you the child of the Granger family? You are not strong at all!”
Juju cried even louder after being scolded.
The old man was speechless.
He took a deep breath and quickly approached Juju with a dark face.
Juju was taken aback and she looked at him cautiously. The next second, he suddenly took out a pink Hello Kitty stuffed toy and placed it in front of Juju. He tried to squeeze out a kind smile, “Isn’t it cute?”
Juju went blank for a moment. She glanced at the Hello Kitty stuffed toy and turned to the Old Master. She then cried even louder.
The Old Master was at a loss of words.
He was thinking whether he should act cutesy to coax the child when he heard a loud noise coming from outside.
Boom!
Old Master Granger was shocked. He remembered that Amos was still outside and he shouted hurriedly, “What’s going on?”
A servant stumbled to him, “Oh no, the Young Master had pulled the trigger!”
The Old Master’s legs went limp and he called hurriedly, “Hurry and call the doctor. The rest of you, hurry and carry the Young Master inside.”
Amos Granger was standing outside the door with his hand pressing on his wound, blood gushing out from his fingers.
Eudora’s eyes were red and she kept staring at the wound.
“Amos, are you crazy? How could you do this?”
Amos smiled at her, “It’s okay. I’ve told you that I won’t let you go.”
The old man then came out with his servants. He was frightened when he saw Amos covered in blood.
“You b*stard, are you out of your mind?!”
Amos smiled bitterly, “With a father like you, I should have gone mad a long time ago!”
“B*stard!” Old Master Granger scolded sternly and instructed the servants immediately, “Aren’t you going to help him in?”
The servant quickly gathered around Amos but he continued holding onto Eudora’s hand tightly. “You should just wait to collect my body if you refuse to let her in! Or, you could give Juju back to us and the three of us will leave immediately. We won’t ever come back in the future.”
“You…” Old Master Granger looked at Eudora angrily. Finally, after thinking it through, he called his servant. “Bring them all in.”
The servant heaved a sigh of relief and hurried to help Amos. “Young Master, come in with us! Quick!”
“Let’s go!” Amos turned to Eudora and whispered to her. He then tightened his grip around her hand. Eudora’s nose twitched. She wanted to smile at him at this moment, but she could not, considering the situation they were in now.
The servant immediately brought Amos back to the room where the George family used to live in.
The doctor had arrived but Amos refused to let the doctor treat his wounds.
“I want to see Juju.”
Old Master Granger was so angry that he was about to faint. “You b*stard, you just want to piss me to death, don’t you?”
Amos smiled bitterly, “I’m afraid that I’ll be the one who is going to die this time.”
“You…” Old Master Granger did not waste any more time when he saw that blood was still gushing out of Amos’ wound. He hurried to call the servant again, “Go, bring the child over.”
The servant left in a hurry and soon returned with Juju, who was still crying.
Amos covered Juju’s eyes before she could see clearly.
“Mommy and Daddy is going to play a game with Juju, okay?”
Juju quieted down after seeing her parents. She then nodded.
“Mommy will take Juju outside first. Both of you will wait for me there because I just fell down and my clothes are dirty. I will look for you two after I change my clothes, okay? Juju, could you recite the alphabets while you wait for me?” Amos said.
Juju might have grown up abroad but she would often practice the alphabets with Eudora. As of this moment, she could basically memorize the entire thing!
As long as the parents were with the child, the child would feel that they had nothing to be afraid of.
Therefore, Juju nodded happily, “Okay.”
Eudora sniffled and covered Juju’s head in her arms and went out.
“Let’s begin…”
Juju paused for a moment and started reciting in a soft voice.
“A, B, C, D, E, F, G…”
The soft voice trailed into the room and Old Master Granger slowly came back to his senses. “You were afraid that I would take them away when you remove the bullet, so you deliberately asked her to recite the alphabets…”
Amos pursed his lips, “I don’t trust you.”
The Old Master was very angry, “I am your father.”
Amos ignored him and soon, the doctor came in. Doctor Leon sighed when he saw the pair glaring at each other.
“Old Master, I think you’d better go out first! I’m afraid that you will affect the patient’s mood if you’re around…”
Old Master Granger gritted his teeth, “I won’t leave! I am his father. How dare he despise me?”
Doctor Leon was speechless. “It’s not a matter of whether he despises you or not.”
“Forget it, let’s begin!” Amos said. He could feel that he was getting weaker and his consciousness was wavering. He was worried that Eudora and Juju would be driven away if he fainted.
Doctor Leon nodded and hurried to prepare the anesthetic.
Amos stopped him again, “I don’t need it!”
Doctor Leon’s eyes widened. “Nonsense. Why are you still so stubborn at this time?”
“I’m not joking. I don’t want to be numb! Let’s start. I can stand it.”This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Old Master Granger got even angrier, “I’ve told you, you’ve gone mad for that woman! Doctor Leon, don’t listen to him. Give it to him!”
“I said, I don’t want it!”
“Stop arguing!” It was so noisy that Doctor Leon’s temples were throbbing. “Old Master Granger, please leave!”
The Old Master finally left furiously after looking at Amos’ pale face. Despite the argument, he was still worried about his son’s health.
After the Old Master left, Doctor Leon said, “Amos, don’t be stubborn. Listen to me and take the anesthetic. You don’t have to worry about those two. I’ll take care of them for you! Nothing will happen to them. Trust me.”
Amos still shook his head, “I can handle it.”
Doctor Leon could not do anything about him. He sighed.
“Both you and your father are so stubborn. Back then, your father did the same thing for your mother too…”
Amos was taken aback, “What did you say?”
