The Billionaire’s Treasure Wife

Lindsey finished and subconsciously headed outside.

The phone call was from Charlotte, news of Bruce at Cloud Mountain had leaked, and the person who released the news was someone she hadn’t met, Burton’s mother, Gu Wenshuang.

Charlotte was furious, but she was worried about Bruce’s safety and kept begging Lindsey to take care of him.

Lindsey agreed with a bitter smile, hung up the phone, called Adem again, and then returned to the backyard as if nothing had happened.

Bruce has only been here for two days, Gu Wenshang has released the news, no wonder Burton dares to be so disrespectful.

The old saying is good, there is its mother will have its son, no wonder Burton will be so tirelessly want Bruce dead.

She is not going back to B City, but Gu Wenshuang, this person, no matter where she is, she will have to go around.

The entire The Grant family, think she alone, definitely does not want Bruce to recover.

And she, it seems, inadvertently, was involved and will most likely be the target of Gu Wenshang’s attack.

“It’s about time, you go to a cool place to move your hands, and grandpa will come over later to check your pulse.” Lindsey wiped her sweat, coldly heard the sound of grandpa coughing, her face changed, and then she whirled and ran back.

Adem had called her earlier and said that Grandpa seemed to be very sick. She didn’t see anything strange when she came back, thinking that she would wait a few days for Bruce’s treatment to stabilize and ask him again, but she didn’t expect that he was really unwell.

“Grandpa?” Lindsey entered the house and followed the sound of his voice to see him locking his drawers, his brow furrowed slightly. “Why didn’t you say you weren’t feeling well? If you need any herbs, I’ll just go up the mountain and pick them.”

“It’s no matter, just old age.” Old Mr. Heard stroked his beard and greeted her with a smile as he sat down. “Have you ever seen any strange people in B City?”

“No, why are you asking this all of a sudden.” Lindsey sat down on the stool and quickly took his hand, frowning as she checked his pulse.

Old Mr. Heard did not stop her, hearing the sound of a wheelchair gliding down the aisle, and whirled to stop what he had just said.

“Tomorrow’s medicine, I will go to pick this afternoon, you are not allowed to work hard.” Lindsey withdrew her hand, her eyes faintly red. “Grandpa, you’ll always be there for me, won’t you?”

Old Mr. Heard narrowed his eyes and glared at her. “Shame or no shame! When I say it’s okay, it’s okay.”

“No shame!” Lindsey grunted and looked away to see Bruce at the door, his face suddenly turning hard. “I’ll go find Adem, you get some rest.”

After the words, and regardless of their reaction, got up and ran out quickly.

Old Mr. Heard shook his head with a bitter smile, glanced faintly at Bruce, picked up the chess game on the table and continued to look through it.

Bruce was a little embarrassed, and stayed outside the door for a while and went back to the backyard to continue exercising his arm strength.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Lindsey followed Adem up the hill with a basket on her back and a dogwood in her mouth, worried.

Grandpa’s old illness was really coming back, and it was even worse than last year. This disease can not be cured, because the location of the shrapnel near the heart, when the good opportunity to save was delayed, so many years has grown into a sarcoma, can only rely on drugs to relieve the pain.

After walking in silence for a long time, Lindsey stopped in the shade and looked back at Adem. “Why aren’t you talking?”

“You’re not happy? Is it because of Old Mr. Heard.” Adem sat down on his butt and fished a box of cigarettes out of his pocket, took one into his mouth and lit it. “When I call you, I often hear him coughing, and sometimes his face is purple.”

Lindsey also followed and sat down, burying his face into the palms of his hands for a long time.

In this situation, Grandpa couldn’t save himself, and even the best experts in Cloud Mountain didn’t dare to perform the surgery.

She grew up with her grandfather, he taught her to practice writing, taught her to learn medicine, taught her to practice boxing, told her all kinds of stories, gave her the truth of being a human being. He had always been her heaven, and she dreaded to think what she would do if her grandfather were gone.

“Lindsey, don’t worry too much, Old Mr. Heard will be fine.” Adem said soothingly and then fell silent.

He was tempted to ask her who the man she had come back with was, but felt he shouldn’t ask.

It’s never good to pry into someone’s privacy.

Lindsey sat under the tree for a long time, until Adem finished his third cigarette, then he got up, patted his butt and continued up the hill.

While Bruce is still here, maybe he can get the best doctor to diagnose Grandpa.

As long as there is a ray of hope, she will not give up!

After picking the medicine back in town, Lindsey remembered Charlotte’s phone call and instructed Adem to speed up her pace to the medical clinic.

The town is not big, no one in the town does not know her and grandpa, the news is released, but whenever a new face appears in town, she will be able to know the first time.

When she opened the door and entered, Grandpa was leaning in the rocking chair in front of the window, napping, and Bruce was reading a medical book in the backyard, sweat pouring out of his back like a spring.

Lindsey put the basket down, went to the well, fetched water, took a big gulp, and looked at him panting. “How do you feel?”

“I’m responding much better today than I did yesterday.” Bruce put down the medical book and turned back to the towel and handed it to her. “Wipe the sweat off.”

Lindsey curled her lips, wet the towel and wiped her sweat, then dropped the phrase “go back to cooking” and was gone in a flash.

In the evening, Adem came over for dinner, Old Mr. Heard did not look at him again, but praised him for being down-to-earth, so he would be able to achieve great things in the future.

Lindsey teased, winking mischievously at Adem. “Is Auntie pushing you to get married? I went to do the laundry this morning and several aunts were talking about introducing you.”

“It’s not like I’m in a hurry.” Adem’s cheeks reddened and she was deliberately mean to her. “I’m making great progress now, if you keep talking nonsense, I’ll beat you up!”

“I’m afraid of you.” Lindsey laughed, forgetting that Bruce was with her.

Bruce didn’t even move his chopsticks, and when he saw Lindsey smiling at Adem, he couldn’t wait to get up and beat her out.

But he knew in his heart, Adem’s body is not bad, just look at the arm muscles to know that he and Lindsey are similar, are trained from childhood.

When he saw Adem off, Lindsey leaned down as soon as he turned around and looked at Bruce with suspicion. “You’re not feeling well?”

“No.” Bruce was startled, and the bewilderment of being seen through filled his chest instantly.

“No what are you doing with a stern face.” Lindsey grunted, raised her hand to pat his shoulder, and went to the kitchen to make him some soup and medicine.

Bruce pursed his lips, his eyes chasing her back, his heart full of bitterness.

Lindsey didn’t think much of it and watched him take his medicine, then went to find his grandfather.

The first thing that Lindsey did was to knock on the door and politely mention to Old Mr. Heard about going to the provincial capital for a checkup, but she didn’t expect to be rejected before she could finish her sentence.

She thought about it and tossed and turned all night, but couldn’t decide whether to tell her three brothers or not.

Grandpa’s health is getting worse and worse, but this family, if her words are not listened to, no one can say anything to him.

“There it is!” Lindsey rolled in bed until almost dawn and finally came up with a way to convince her grandfather. Who knew that at this time, there was suddenly a very unusual movement in the yard.
