Chapter 281 Confused Old Woman
The old lady did not expect Lucas to be so direct, and she was stunned. When Li Dongqiang heard this, he seemed to be furious. He first looked at his mother nervously, and then shouted, “My mother is hospitalized here. Hurry up and leave. Don’t affect my mother’s recovery here.” If Li Dongqiang was not afraid of this man’s strength, he would have even wanted to kick him out. However, Lucas only glanced at him lightly and had no intention of paying attention to him at all. “I don’t know if you are clear or not. Because of your accident and your son’s accusation, she was arrested.” Lucas continued to speak, and at the same time, he was observing the old lady’s expression. “I heard from Doctor Armstrong that she only gave you herbs that you could afford and didn’t charge you for the treatment, is that right?” “Yes…” The old lady opened her mouth with difficulty, and the guilt in her eyes almost overflowed. But when Li Dongqiang heard this, he almost jumped up. “What is it? I tell you, don’t talk nonsense here. Do you think my mother is old and easy to fool? If you really want to save her, give me five million. I heard that you are a big boss. Five million should not be much to you!” “Five million is not much to me, but to give this money to a scum like you, I feel disgusted.” Lucas coldly retorted. At this moment, his eyes were like those of an eagle, staring at Li Dongqiang sharply. Li Dongqiang was shocked, and his heart began to feel a little weak. However, his greed ultimately won over his fear. “Who’s a scum? If you continue to spout nonsense here, I’m going to call the police!” After he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something. He pounced towards his mother on the bed and threatened, “Mom, I know that you’ve always been soft-hearted. If you help this man make false evidence, your son will be finished. If something happens to me, who will take care of your granddaughter in the future?” The old lady naturally understood the meaning behind these words, and she was so angry that her chest was violently bullied. Her son was using her grandkid to threaten her. In the end, for her granddaughter, the old lady closed her eyes. Because she was afraid that her eyes would reveal too many emotions. When Li Dongqiang saw his mother’s actions, he was secretly delighted. He could not help but look at Lucas proudly and begin to order him to leave. “You see it too. My mother is tired. Please leave.” Lucas ignored him and looked at the old lady on the bed with cold eyes. He naturally knew why the old lady was acting like this. “If you think that your choice can guarantee your grandson’s future, then you have made a big mistake. I hope you won’t regret it.” After saying this, he turned around and left. Outside the door, Mason saw his boss coming out with a bad expression and had a faint guess in his heart. He did not ask anything and followed him out of the hospital. After Lucas got in the car, he barely suppressed the anger in his heart and ordered in a deep voice, “Send someone to keep an eye on Li Dongqiang. If there is any movement, inform me immediately.” He did not believe that he could not find any evidence against this man. Mason nodded, indicating that he understood. That evening, Lucas brought the two little ones to the police station to visit Emily. As soon as they met, their eyes could not help but redden. “Mommy, I miss you so much.” “Mommy misses you too. Have you been obedient for the past few days?” Emily’s eyes were also red. Speaking of which, this was the first time she had been separated from the two little ones for so long. “We are very obedient. Mommy, when can you go home?” The two little ones sobbed. “It should be soon. I heard that the old lady woke up.” The last sentence was said to Lucas. Lucas understood what she meant. She pursed her lips and said, “She is awake, but she is confused. If she is held by her son, I am afraid she will not come to testify.” Hearing this, Emily was a little surprised and expected. Immediately, she revealed a bitter smile, and her heart was unspeakably uncomfortable. Lucas saw her sadness and felt very distressed. “Don’t worry, even without that old woman’s testimony, I can still save you.” “I know.” Emily looked at the serious expression on the man’s face and was very moved and at ease. After a few more words, Emily urged them to leave. “Mommy. I’ll come back to see you tomorrow.” The two little ones reluctantly waved and bid farewell to Emily. Emily also waved and told them, “Go back with Lucas and remember to be obedient and take good care of your great-grandmother.” Lucas listened to their conversation quietly, a gentle look on his face. When the mother and son finished talking, he asked, “Do you need anything in there? I will ask someone to send it to you.” “I don’t need anything. I’m just a little bored. If it’s possible, get someone to send me some medical books.”
