Chapter 044 Well, we didn’t divorce
Obviously she was comforting him, but she couldn’t even comfort herself.
Tears, all dripping on Barret’s clothes.
Perhaps there were too many tears, which soon soaked the bandage and stained his wound.
The wound on Barret’s back soon were dyed with red, blood streak oozed through his white shirt.
However, no one cared about it.
Didn’t remember how long waited until the “emergency room” lights went out and the doctor came out.
Everyone hurried forward.
Barret was the first to speak: “Doctor, how is my grandpa?”
He had always been calm and composed, but his voice was trembling at this moment.
Jenny’s eyes were red, almost afraid to listen to the doctor’s answer.
However, the cruelest moment had come.
The doctor took off the mask, looked at them with a heavy face, and finally said, “I’m sorry, we tried our
best, and say goodbye to the old man!”
Jenny stumbled, she couldn’t hold it any longer, and she burst into tears.
How could this be?
Why was this happening?
Grandpa was still fine in the morning, it’s only been a few hours, why had everything changed?
She didn’t believe it, she didn’t want to believe it.
In the hospital bed, it was quiet.

(
The old man was wearing a ventilator and lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed.
Everyone stayed by the bed, waiting for him to wake up.
However, before the old man woke up, an uninvited guest arrived.
The woman wore heavy makeup, bright red lipstick, slender manicures, high heels, and a bright red
dress.
Although had never seen her, Jenny probably guessed her identity.
It might be the woman of her father-in-law outside.
“Why are you here?” Lionel ran over, his face was full of anger.
The woman said sadly: “I heard that dad is hospitalized, and his life is at stake, as a daughter-in-law, of
course I want to come and see.”
The naked word “daughter-in-law” in her mouth completely ignored Lillian.
“Go back immediately, I don’t want to see you again.” Lionel also looked impatient.
The woman was about to speak, when suddenly, Barret walked over.

Glancing at the bodyguard beside him, he said in a cold voice, “Drag this woman out for me and find a
piace to lock her up, no one is allowed to let her out without my order.”
Saying that, he looked specifically at Lionel.
Lionel didn’t object, and she should agreed.
The woman was of course dissatisfied, and just about to resist, she was dragged out by the bodyguard
covering her lips.

As soon as she went out, Mr. Smith opened his eyes slightly and woke up.
When he woke up, several people gathered around him.
Jenny and Lillian both grabbed one of the old man’s hand, with gentle expression on their faces.
“Grandfather......
“Dad......”
The two spoke at the same time.
The old man first looked at the few people around him, and then looked at the ceiling above his head.
Immediately relieved, as if understood everything.
“Grandpa, are you thirsty? Do you want to drink water?” Jenny asked first.
The old man nodded: “Okay.”
Jenny immediately poured a glass of warm water, brought it to the bed, and fed the old man bit by bit with a straw.
After drinking the water, the old man looked at them seriously, and said in a calm voice, “Don’t be sad, when everyone gets old,
will always come to this point, grandpa, has already prepared myself, so I am not afraid at all.”
“Barret, take Jenny out first, grandpa has something to say to your parents.”
“OK.”
Although reluctant, Jenny and Barret left the ward first.
However, just arrived outside the ward.
She met the person she didn’t want to see the most.
Laura pushed the wheelchair and rushed over in a hurry.
When she saw Barret, she was sweating on her head, looking nervous.
“Barret, how’s grandpa? I came as soon as I got the news.”

“How did you know?” Jenny’s sharp eyes swept her, finally landing on Barret.
Knowing that she had misunderstood, Laura quickly explained: “Jenny, don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t
Barret who told me, I had a friend in this hospital and she told me.”
“Really?” Jenny’s eyes were still sharp.
“You think I have no sense of propriety like this?” Barret asked rhetorically.
Then Jenny believed that.
But then, she looked at Laura: “I don’t care how you know it, and whether you are sincere to see grandpa,
or hypocritical, Laura, listen to me clearly, and immediately push your wheelchair to leave.
“Jenny.” Laura bit her lip, and Lucy looked at her weakly: “I am for good intention, I know grandpa doesn’t like me, but I never
blame grandpa, is it wrong for me to come and see him?”

“Knowing that grandpa doesn’t like you, you are still cheeky to come, Laura, what are you thinking about?” Jenny suddenly
roared.
She never got mad.
She gave the impression that was basically a quiet, weak image.
Getting mad this time really shocked Laura.
Seeing that Jenny couldn’t been overcome, Laura looked at Barret again: “Barret, please, don’t drive me away, grandpa is
seriously ill, I want to send him the last ride, I promise not to......cause you trouble.”
Before Laura could finish her words, suddenly, Jenny slapped her in the face.
Her head went blank, Laura just raised her head, but she still hadn’t reacted.
Suddenly, another slap landed on the other side of the face.
There were two clear slap prints on Laura’s face in an instant, obviously.

“Laura, what do you think about? Who said this is the last ride, believe it or not, I’ll tear up your mouth.”
“I tell you, get out of here right away.”
“If you don’t get out, I’ll let someone throw you out.”
Jenny was really getting mad.
Laura had never seen Jenny like this.
Not only her, but Barret had not seen it either.
He knew that she was nervous about grandpa and cared about him, but he didn’t expect Jenny to care
about grandpa so deeply.
Usually, no matter how angry she was, she has never been so out of control.
But today, like a ferocious tiger, she stretched out her sharpest claws and opened her bloody mouth, leaving no room.
“Barret......” Laura’s voice trembled, looking at Barret with her last hope.
“Go away.” Jenny growled.
Barret didn’t speak.
Under Jenny’s anger eyes, Laura slid her wheelchair and left in embarrassment.
In the ward, the old man Smith smiled happily: “The girl finally got mad once, and it’s for me, I’m really
happy in my heart.”
“After I leave, the person that I most worry about is the girl, you have to swear that no matter what happens in the future, you will
take good care of her.”
“And the matter of divorce, I think they haven’t finished the formalities today, you still have to retain her,l hope that my grandson
and granddaughter-in-law will grow old together and walk hand in hand for the rest of their lives.”
“Okay, go and call Barret in.” The old man ordered.

“Dad.” Lionel and Lillian shouted reluctantly at the same time.
“Don’t worry, I won’t close my eyes until things are explained.”
Soon, Barret came to the bed.
His eyes were bloodshot and wet.
He stretched out his hand, held grandpa’s hand tightly in his hand, and summoned great courage to speak: “Grandpa, I’m here.”
“Then I’m not talking nonsense anymore, for you, grandpa has only one wish, can you promise grandpa?”
“Grandpa, say it.”
“After grandpa left, the person that I most worry about is the girl, so don’t divorce her, you have to take good care of her, protect
her, love her, Barret, can you do it?”
