Chapter 171 Fight In The Hospital
“Elena, don’t yell in the hospital. Your grandfather just got out of danger and hasn’t woken up yet. Don’t provoke him anymore, okay? Your aunt can’t always look after your grandfather at home. You can’t blame her for this.”
Jonathan also didn’t expect that Mason would suddenly fell down from the stairs. His father was now old and could not bear to fall down. This time, he was afraid that he would not be able to survive.
Elena wiped away her tears and ignored the both of them. She turned to look at Ryan, who had been silent all the times. “Can you contact some foreign doctors to save my grandfather?”
Ryan looked at her and held her hand. “I have already contacted them on the way here. But can grandpa bear a second surgery?”
Mason was not a young man. After a fall and surgery, his body was already weak enough. A second surgery might also take his life. Hearing this, Elena was so worried that she could not say anything.
Adeline saw the sad look of the woman and started to mock. “Now you know that you have a grandfather. Where did you go back then? I never knew that you cared so much about your grandfather in the past.”
“After leaving the house for so many years, you never bothered to come back and take a look. But now look how hard you are crying. I think you just want to fight for Lewis family’s property.”
“Alright, can you stop talking? What time is it now? Why are you still talking about family property at this time? If it wasn’t for them, our company would have been crippled a long time ago. Can you not say such sarcastic words?”
Jonathan’s views were positive at this moment. Because he knew he owed them, he could not say such things to them for no reason. If they wanted their money now, their company would definitely declare bankruptcy.
“What’s wrong with asking for money? Our family has raised that woman for such a long time. Can’t we ask for some money? She is also a member of the Lewis family. So what if she gives some money to our family? Could it be that the food she used to eat was taken from the streets?”
Adeline’s words became harsher and harsher.
Elena turned around and looked at the woman who was speaking shamelessly. The next second, a slap landed on her face.
Slap!
Clear, loud and ear-piercing.
“Shut your dirty mouth. Now that the fate of grandpa is unknown, you actually want to argue. with me about this? Also, let me remind you that before this, this company belonged to my father. When my father was here, I didn’t need you to care about my food and drinks. If you really want to settle the score, your family owes me more than I owe you, Adeline Lewis.”
“You… You actually dared to hit me. You ungrateful person. If I had known earlier, I would have strangled you to death the moment you were born!”
Adeline never would have thought that she would be beaten by a little bastard. What right did she have to look down on her?
“If you were to beaten up, you should be beaten up. Do I need to pick a day? Today I will let you. off for the time being. If you dare to be disrespectful to my parents and grandfather next time, then it will not be as simple as beating you up.”
Elena said coldly then turned to Jonathan, “And little uncle, look after your wife. If she makes a scene like this again, I won’t be polite anymore.”
How had Elena living all these years? Only she herself knew. Therefore, she had the best way to deal with these rascals.
“Why should I shut my mouth? Don’t think that just because you are married to Ryan, you can raise your tail to the sky. If it wasn’t for our Lewis family, who do you think you are?”
“I don’t like to hear what Mrs. Lewis is saying. You were the ones who chased my wife out of the family. Now you are shamelessly accusing her for not going back? I pamper my wife very much. That’s why for Elena’s sake, I gave you. money. But if I heard any more insulting words towards my wife, I will withdraw my investment right now. Then let’s see who can speak in the end.”
Ryan looked at Jonathan and said word by word. His whole self was emitting a dangerous aura. When Ryan saw his wife was being bullied, how could he quietly stand by the side and not say anything?
It was just that Elena’s father was also related to Lewis family. That’s why no matter what they did he didn’t say anything for Elena’s sake. Otherwise with these couple around the Lewis group would long have been bankrupted..
Jonathan saw the situation was getting out of hand so he fiercely grabbed Adeline behind. Hel gritted his teeth. “I told you to shut up! If you don’t shut up, I will break your mouth!”
Adeline never would have thought that her husband would be so biased towards others. It was already at this time. He should stand on her side and fight against the enemy together. But he was actually taking the side of other people.
“Why should I shut up? Elena has grown up. When has she not eaten the food of our Lewis family? Does she need us to return the money? Jonathan, can you be more careful? If we can’t obtain the family property under these circumstances, our family can only sleep on the streets.”
Adeline still refused to give up, and refused to let go of the problem of her family property.
Jonathan tried to stop her but Adeline continued to insult Elena. In the end, Jonathan could not help but step forward and hit the woman’s face once again.
“I told you to shut up. If you continue to make noise, I will throw you down from upstairs!”
Adeline was stunned by Jonathan’s slap. Although they were together because of a business marriage, after so many years, they had developed feelings for each other. Usually, Jonathan would be obedient to her and she never thought that he would actually hit her in front of so many people.
Adeline flew into a rage out of humiliation and collapsed on the ground. “Jonathan, you…”
“If you don’t want to stay here, I will get someone to send you back immediately. If you want to stay here, shut your mouth immediately. My father has already become like this, yet you are still thinking about family property. Money, money and money! I’ll bury you in the money tomorrow!”
