Anyone Dares Bully you, Call Uncles! novel Chapter 830

Bettany's vision was still blurry, and she had a lingering feeling that something had flown over, but she could not see it.

She looked suspiciously at the frying pan in Josh's hand, thinking that the flickering black shadow might have been caused by the pan.

"Why did you bring a frying pan here?" Bettany asked, puzzled.

Josh's eyes widened as he stared at the head floating behind his grandmother. The head, still recovering from the beating, floated up from behind Bettany and fixed its gaze on Josh.

Josh felt a chill run down his spine from being stared at by the head.

Bettany turned around to see what Josh was looking at and asked again, "What are you looking at? I'm asking you something! Why do you have a pan..."

Josh panicked and blurted out a nonsense excuse, "I... I was going to fry an egg for Grandpa."

Hugh and Bettany exchanged bewildered glances, while Drake remained silent and frowned.

Hugh, maintaining his serious expression, spoke firmly, "You don't need to fry anything. Go home immediately."

The two brothers obediently turned to leave. As they walked out, they overheard other family members of patients passing by, expressing admiration for their filial behavior.

"These brothers are so young, yet they're quite devoted to their grandparents..."

"That's right. Unlike my ungrateful son, I've been in the hospital for so long, but he rarely visits. He just pops in for a short while and then leaves."

As the two brothers approached the elevator, Josh kept glancing over his shoulder.

Drake noticed his behavior and asked, "What's wrong?"

Josh exclaimed in horror, "It's following me!"

The human head floated near the elevator doors, fixated on them as they closed. As soon as the doors shut, Josh felt a wave of relief wash over him.

This head is terrifying!

The head was covered in blood, and its hair was matted together with dried, blackened blood. Despite staring at it for a while, Josh still could not discern whether it belonged to a man or a woman.

"Why is there a dismembered head in the hospital?" he wondered aloud. "And it's still dripping with blood..."

Once he had regained his composure, Josh began to think more logically. "The neck was cleanly cut. It looks like someone dismembered it..."

Drake listened to his brother's muttering, feeling increasingly uneasy. Even inside the elevator, he could sense the tension building in his own back.

"Ding…"

The elevator reached the first floor, and the doors opened.

The brothers swiftly stepped out, picking up their pace instinctively.

But just as they were making their way out, Josh abruptly halted and grabbed onto Drake's arm, causing him to stop as well.

"What is it?" Drake asked, puzzled.

Josh swallowed hard. "It's following me again..." he whispered.
