The Billionaire’s Kick Ass Wife

Chapter 147 Bridget’s Uneasiness

Behind Greyson, two assistants pushed Roger’s ambulance out.

Greyson said, “Roger’s bleeding was stopped in advance by someone. Although the wound is deep, it

didn’t hurt any vital part. The surgery is a success. He will be fine after good recuperation.”

Draxton glanced at the unconscious Roger, nodded slightly, and asked, “Where’s Bernard?”

On hearing the name of Bernard, Greyson’s face turned serious. “His leg is cataclysmically smashed.

The surgery will be difficult. Even if the surgery is successful, there will inevitably be health hazards in

the future.” Bernard might be a cripple for the rest of his life.

Draxton’s countenance fell at that, and his fists clenched unconsciously.

Greyson did not go on, nor did he dare to mention the murderer. Isabella said, “I’ll do the operation on

him. I will try my best to cure him without any aftereffects.”

Greyson’s eyes lit up.

In fact, Isabella was a Miraculous Doctor.

Greyson was lost in memories. Many years back, he was shocked that the patriarch was to marry

Isabella. Now, however, he began to have a grudge admiration for him for the decision, knowing he had

made a wise decision.

“If so, Bernard will be saved. Isabella, I’ll be your assistant,” Greyson said excitedly.

He was also a famous medical genius in the medical field, but at this moment, he was more than willing

and thrilled to be Isabella’s assistant.

Draxton looked at Isabella and nodded. “I’ll leave him to you.”

“Don’t worry,” Isabella said.

Isabella said to Greyson, “Get ready. We’ll start now.”

Greyson hurriedly nodded.

It was in the Riker family.

Patriarch Riker, Mrs. Riker, Terrence and his wife, and many other members of the Riker gathered

around Bridget to appease her.

When the Riker family gave up on Bridget, Patriarch Riker feared that Bridget would feel estranged, but

Bridget appeared rather calm at that.

She said, “You’re my family, after all. How can I blame you, grandpa and dad?”

Patriarch Riker felt very relieved and satisfied at that. He laughed, cheering that this granddaughter didn’t

let

him down.

He said, “Bridget, when the Lockwood family know that you’re back, they will probably find trouble with

you. again. Have you any idea how to deal with it?”

Bridget chuckled and said confidently, “Grandpa, don’t worry. The Lockwood family must be in a mess

now. I’ve given them a huge surprise gift, haha.”

Patriarch Riker’s eyes lit up. He was so curious about what his granddaughter had done to the Lockwood

family that he could not help but ask, “Just tell grandpa what it is.”

He was happy to see the Lockwood family suffer, but he was also a little worried. “They won’t find out it’s

us, right?”

Bridget said, “Don’t worry, grandpa. I’ve done it quite neatly. They won’t find it out.”

Patriarch Riker laughed heartily and asked, “Bridget, what exactly did you do?”

Bridget looked at Patriarch Riker and chuckled. “A few Lockwoods will die soon, I’m afraid.”

At that Patriarch Riker’s countenance drastically fell.

Bridget noticed that and said, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I didn’t leave a trace. And since the Lockwood

family has countless enemies, they won’t be sure it’s us.”

Patriarch Riker was greatly startled.

This granddaughter’s ruthlessness and boldness shocked him.

He was both afraid and proud.

Seated not far from them, Ethan looked at his family’s sinister faces listened to their flattering words, and

felt overwhelmingly upset.

Bridget was Patriarch Riker’s granddaughter, but grandpa seemed a little ingratiating before her.

Perhaps, he thought, even grandpa himself didn’t realize it. But from another perspective, he was just

making use of her. This attitude was obviously shown towards outsiders.

Suddenly, Bridget frowned. A vague sense of uneasiness crept into her heart.

She stood up and said, “Excuse me, grandpa, dad, it suddenly occurred to me I need to go back to my

room to deal with something.”

“Alright, alright. Go ahead, grandpa and dad will leave you alone,” Patriarch Riker said hastily.

He was smiling.

Bridget returned to her room and strode towards a box on the nightstand.

The venerable box was made of ancient bronze. Bridget stepped up and opened the box, her face stern.

A blood-colored poison bug inside had already turned into a pool of blood.

Bridget’s eyes opened wide and darkened. She muttered in disbelief, “How come?”

A pang of uneasiness and terror seized her.

If her mother bug was dead, it probably meant the poison bugs in the bodies of the Skydragon gangsters

were probably dead too.

And that meant their operation failed.

Bridget’s face turned pale as she thought about the horrible consequences of failure.

She called the bald man with trembling hands; he didn’t answer.

She called other members of Skydragon, but no one answered.

Her mind was filled with endless fear and uneasiness.

Ethan returned to his room preoccupied. Gerald saw that he was restless and followed him.

After being separated for a few years, the father and son had not even quality time to talk with each

other. Seeing his father, Ethan opened the door and invited him in. The father and son sat opposite each

other, but neither of them spoke.

“How have you been alone abroad all these years?” Gerald asked.

“Very good. I’m living very well overseas. Although I don’t have any relatives around me there, I saw no

schemes, no manipulation, and I feel free. True, I occasionally feel lonely, but it’s generally quite good.”

Ethan looked straight into his father’s eyes, which changed a little at his gaze. And he asked, “Dad, you

think I should make use of Olivia too? Or do you want to use me to achieve some of the Riker family’s

goals?” Gerald looked at him silently for a long time, then he sighed. “Ethan, we all belong to the Riker

family.” “A family like this makes me disgusted and terrified, Dad. I’d rather it wasn’t my family; I don’t

want those families.”

Ethan looked indignant.

Gerald looked at him with mixed feelings. “Don’t say such words before your grandpa and uncles.”

Ethan said, ‘Dad, I want to go overseas. I won’t come back anymore.”

“Ethan, you’re a grown-up now. You have the right to choose your life. You can do whatever you want.

Do you know why I agree with your grandpa when he decided to send you overseas back then? Because

I thought going overseas and staying away from the Riker family isn’t a bad thing.”

Ethan’s eyes turned red

“I want not only you, but Bridget to go overseas, so that you two can take care of each other there.”

Gerald said it in earnest.

Being dull and reserved, Gerald was but a cipher in the Riker family. Patriarch Riker did not think much of

his second son.

Ethan looked at Gerald excitedly. “Dad, go with us then.”

Gerald shook his head. “I’m not leaving. I belong with the Riker family.”

Ethan had a complicated expression on his face.

Gerald said, “After your grandpa’s birthday, leave with your sister. Leave the rest to daddy. Your grandpa

thinks too simply. What a family is the Lockwood family? How’s it possible they will be schemed against

by him?”

After hearing these words, Ethan felt something within him had changed; his cold heart suddenly

softened and became warm. While his clan was hopelessly toothless. His father, as well as his sister,

was still there for him.

Greyson thought that Bernard’s injuries were so severe that the surgery would take at least a few hours,

but he surgery ended in less than an hour.

When Isabella came out of the operating theater, Greyson was still in a daze.

Isabella calmly took off her gloves and said, “I’m going back to get some medicine. With those

medicines, Bernard will recover better.”

Greyson nodded repeatedly.

Draxton heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I’ll drive you back. You tired?”

Isabella smiled. “Nope. To me, this is just a small surgery.”

None of them mentioned Bridget or the Riker family.

However, the next day, they received an invitation from the Riker family.

Patriarch Riker’s birthday was a week away, and the family invited them to the birthday party.

Isabella looked at the expressionless Draxton with a pair of incredulous eyes and asked, “Are we going

there?”

Draxton looked at the invitation and said coldly, “Sure, I, as the patriarch of the Lockwood family, will give

him. a big gift on behalf of our family!”
