Chapter 331 Back to Sea City
Chapter 331 Back to Sea City
But it was Levi who looked at him calmly, not half uncomfortable: "This is called showing affection? It's
just an everyday thing."
Saying that, he shifted his eyes and turned to Ruby, the end of his eyes hooked, and said leisurely,
"Besides, do we still need to show the love between your sister and me?"
Ruby: "......"
Kevin: "......"
Ruby packed up the lunch box, then suddenly said flatly, "You have a good health base and are almost
recovered now, get up later and clean up, I will take you to see grandma."
Upon hearing this, Kevin was stunned: "Grandma? Isn't Grandma supposed to be in Sea City? Why
has she come to the capital? Did she know I was sick, so she came over to see me? Sister, grandma is
not well, why did you even tell her? Coming all the way here is draining her energy."
Ruby had little expression on her face as she interrupted his chatter, "Grandma doesn't know you are
ill."
Upon hearing this, Kevin froze again, "Then what is Grandma doing here in the capital? Where is she
now?"
Ruby did not say much, but only said indifferently, "You will know when we go."
Kevin: "...... ok."
Levi watched the scene, and he said nothing.
An hour later, Kevin stood in front of his grandmother's tombstone, his face stony, his lips tightly
pursed, his eyes filled with suppressed disbelief and shock.
"How did that happen?" His voice was raspy as if he was struggling to squeeze it out of his throat.
Ruby did not answer him immediately, only squatted down and stroked her fingertips over the photo of
her grandmother's tombstone.
"Grandma, I have brought Kevin to see you, you must have felt bad that you didn't get to see him
before you left, he had an illness some time ago, but now he has recovered, you can rest easy, from
now on, I will take care of him."
Kevin's body was tense as he listened to these words, and his throat was terribly dry.
He moved his lips stiffly and questioned once more in a hoarse voice, "How could this happen? How
could Grandma suddenly be gone?"
Ruby did not look at him, only said, "Don't you want to say hello to Grandma first?"
"Sister!" All of Kevin's emotions couldn't be tensed up and he finally blurted out, "Tell me! What the hell
is going on? Grandma ......"
At that moment, Ruby stood up, her eyes fixed on him, "So what if I told you? Can you bring Grandma
back from the dead?"
Kevin clenched his teeth, the veins at the corners of his forehead bulging out, "If Grandma was killed, I
want to - I want to avenge Grandma!"
Ruby looked cold and affectionate, as if talking about nothing more than an ordinary matter.
"Oh, you don't have that chance then, Grandma went because her life was exhausted and her body
couldn't hold out any longer, what revenge do you want?"
Kevin didn't believe it: "Then why did you never tell me? Sister, is there something else you're hiding
from me, and what exactly has been going on all this time?"
Ruby said, expressionless: "Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with you, Kevin, remember, whatever it
is, it does not need you to interfere."
She did not want to tell him about the Henderson family, nor did she want to involve the Marsh family in
the old affair with the Henderson family.
What she wanted was for Kevin to be safe and away from strife.
She had worked so hard to run all this now, for nothing more than to protect those she cares about, for
a lifetime of peace.
"Grandmother is indeed physically unable to hold on, she has been very ill all these years, only barely
sustained by medication, now that she has gone, we must all accept the reality. You are in the capital, if
you miss Grandma, you can come and see her often, just you must promise me one thing."
Kevin's face turned red, his lips pursed in a straight line as he asked in a dumb voice, "What is it?"
"Whatever happens to you in the capital, tell me first and leave it to me, and all you have to do is to do
your research properly, you are not allowed to meddle in anything. The only thing I want you to do is to
stay away from troubles, understand?"
How could Kevin not know that she was protecting him?
All this time, since his accident, he had realized how complicated the capital was.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
At that moment, looking at his sister's cold and resolute expression, he could not say anything else but
nod his head.
Looking once again at his grandmother's tombstone, the bitterness in his throat was killing him as he
slowly squatted down, his eyes red as he looked at the picture on it.
"Grandma, I'm sorry I couldn't be with you while you were gone, don't worry, my sister and I will be fine
......"
The three of them stood in front of the headstone and spoke for a while before leaving.
On the way back, Ruby looked at the tickets and said, "We should go back."
Kevin was stunned: "Back to Sea City?"
Ruby nodded: "Yeah, things are all settled here, and you are well, so there is no need for us to stay
here, and Olivia is still recuperating in the hospital, so it is time to get her out."
At that, Kevin thought for a moment and said, "Sister, I'll go back with you and brother-in-law."
At these words, Ruby raised an eyebrow: "Why?"
Kevin: "Finlay gave me a month's leave of absence, compulsory for me to recuperate, I don't have any
new experiments to do now, so it's good to follow you guys back and see Olivia."
Seeing his insistence, Ruby did not refuse.
After checking out of the hospital, the three of them went back to the hotel, ready to rest for the night
and return early the next morning.
Before going to bed, Ruby received a phone call from Morgan.
"Miss Harold, there's a big mess over at Hussain’s."
Ruby responded with little emotion, "Well, I already know, how is the company these two days?"
Morgan immediately reported, "It has returned to normal, and there is even more cooperation than
before, and the orders are getting bigger and bigger."
"Well, the processes in the factories are strictly controlled and spot-checked at all times, so that there is
absolutely no room for error."
"Yes." Morgan answered, "Miss Harold, that ......"
"Just say what you have to say." Ruby was most uncomfortable with beating around the bush.
Morgan didn't dare to stammer anymore, so he had to say, "Today, the Finn Group sent someone over."
Ruby raised her eyebrows: "Want to cooperate with us?"
Morgan denied, "No, but want to acquire."
Upon hearing this, Ruby snorted, "Acquire? What about the price?"
Morgan said a number.
"Oh." Ruby didn't even blink as she said bluntly, "Let them take that money and go back where they
come from."
