Master Charlie Was Tricked By A Woman

It was not until the fifth day that old lady Elsa suddenly asked for Mrs. Casey, York Charlie and the others to be called over, and specifically asked Blanche Capra to call her lawyer.

When all the people arrived, Blanche Capra stood by and saw such a big gathering and suddenly realized that grandma Elsa might be doing some family business, so she felt that she was not fit to stay.

But old lady Elsa insisted on keeping her, and in good spirits, she said in front of everyone that she wanted to make a will.

Blanche Capra panicked, did grandma think she wouldn’t last much longer? She felt scared, but yeah, Grandma had told her several times before, she said she couldn’t make it, she said she wanted to see her and York Charlie make up, she wanted to see the two of them get married.

The more Blanche Capra thought about it, the more her heart sank. Her mind was in chaos when she heard grandma Elsa call her name. Blanche Capra snapped back to her senses and wondered what was going on.

One by one she looked at the people in the ward. York Charlie was looking at her somewhat deeply, Mrs. Casey was glaring at her, and everyone else was full of surprise.

What did Grandma … just say?

“No!” Mrs. Casey suddenly exclaimed, her voice full of urgency, “Old lady, how can you make her heir to the estate?” She pointed one finger at Blanche Capra, “You’re confused, what is she? She is an outsider! And, an outsider with no good intentions towards us, the Charlie family!!!”

Confronted with Mrs. Casey’s sudden anger and accusations, Blanche Capra listened to her before realising what was really going on. She was instantly stunned, and she didn’t even have the heart to react to Mrs. Casey’s false accusations against her, but rather was in a state of deep amazement-Grandma, who was actually going to leave her the inheritance?

Blanche Capra’s eyes widened as she looked over at old lady Elsa sleeping in the hospital bed, her face was seven parts surprise, and three parts puzzlement.

She tried to say no, but old lady Elsa gazed deeply at her and gently shook her head at her, the old, feeble hand clutching her again as tightly as it could.

Blanche Capra’s mouth opened and closed again, pursed tight.

“Think about it, old lady,” the lawyer, dressed in a suit and with a stony face, said as he drew up the will on one side of the room and held a notebook out to her.

old lady Elsa scanned a few eyes, then felt a little tired, she slowly closed her eyes, mouth softly said, “you do, I rest assured. That’s it, I’ve thought it through, you all go out too! I am tired.”

Blanche Capra, hearing her say this, rose and wished to go out, but old lady Elsa would not let go her hand, and said, with her eyes closed, “She stays, and you all go.”

Undeterred, Mrs Casey went to the other side of old lady Elsa’s bed and grabbed her hand, “Old lady, you have grandchildren! You still have grandchildren, and it’s not her turn to inherit your legacy!”

Old lady Elsa did not move, closed her eyes and spat out only two words, “Get out!”

York Charlie, who hadn’t said a word the whole time, spoke faintly, “Go,” and then, regardless of his mother’s struggles, pulled her out the door by the hand.

Blanche Capra realized that he had gone like that without even looking at himself.

The door closed and the ward was quiet once more.

And two corridors outside the ward Mrs. Casey, gritting her teeth with a look of hatred, said to York Charlie, “Why didn’t you even stop your grandmother! Are you so enamoured of that vixen that you’re even giving away the family fortune? Are you going to leave it all to her?”

York Charlie said nothing, his eyes resting behind Mrs. Casey, “Harry lim, take my mum back to the Charlie family.”

Mrs. Casey turned her head to see that Harry lim was indeed standing there and immediately protested, “No! I don’t want to go back!”

Harry lim hesitated not to step forward.

York Charlie frowned and raised his voice, “Harry lim!”

Harry lim, seeing York Charlie’s anger, immediately stepped forward and obeyed the command, but Mrs. Casey just refused to go, and he too was suddenly anxious and worried. “Young master, this …”

York Charlie said indifferently, “Oliver is not also here, you have to drag her back even if you drag her! If it continues, will grandma’s illness be cured?”

Said York Charlie, he didn’t care about them anymore and walked back.

When he heard his grandmother say that she would leave her entire estate to Blanche Capra, he was not without surprise. But the surprise was followed by deep puzzlement.

Why? Grandma was not a sentimental person, not to mention a person without a brain, on the contrary, she was wise and penetrating, and acted steadily. So why would Grandma leave her legacy to Blanche, just because he liked her, York Charlie thought?

Driven by his curiosity and doubt, York Charlie returns to the door of the ward to find out what the secret is between his grandmother and Blanche.

Blanche Capra was quiet for a while after everyone else had left the ward, but in the end, she just couldn’t help herself and spoke the denial that was in her heart.

“Grandma, I know you’re awake, listen to me, I can’t accept your legacy.”

OLD LADY Elsa slowly opened her eyes and sighed as she looked at her, “Child, you’ve had a hard time all these years, haven’t you?”

The first time someone asked her this way, Blanche Capra suddenly had a sore nose and nodded with red eyes, “Tough, but … don’t you see that I’m still fine now? It’s all in the past.”

old lady Elsa looked at her heartbreakingly, “You are now well? How come I heard you’ve been dodging debts, and now that job is too tiring.” She exhaled again, “You just said it’s in the past, aren’t you lying to me as an old lady when you comfort me like that? If it was in the past,” her voice trailed off, “you and York would have been happily married a long time ago.”

Blanche Capra cried, desperately shaking her head to speak, and old lady Elsa again, before she could speak, red-eyed and lamenting, “It’s really the biggest regret of my life that I didn’t get to see you guys happy …”

“Grandma …” Blanche Capra finally cried out in pain, “No, no, it won’t! You just need to get well and sooner or later you’ll get better!”

old lady Elsa suddenly held her hand tightly, and asked her with great expectation in her eyes, “Then you and York will make up sooner or later, won’t you?”

Blanche Capra crying voice gave a beat, and looked at her for a long time, finally gently nodded her head, “… will.”

I don’t know why, obviously she knows better than anyone else that there are too many things separating her and York Charlie, all knots that can’t be untied, all wounds that can’t be healed, and–even if it’s untied, it will still leave traces of having been tied up, and even if it’s healed, it will still leave traces of being wounded, ah… …Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

But just for some reason, when she saw grandma Elsa’s eyes, she couldn’t help but just think that maybe there really would be a day when there would be that kind of unpredictable, indescribable force that would allow them to come back together.

They will … do it, won’t they?

She thought of grandma Elsa so a penetrating person, even if she herself could not see, grandma Elsa she felt the right thing, must be the right thing, right?

They were meant to be together, she said.

So, could she not try to believe in such a prophecy?
