My Second Husband novel Chapter 207

The Old Master still looked very tough even though he was being threatened, but it was obvious that his attitude had become slightly better.

Amos turned to look at Jason and said, I'm sorry to have troubled you!"

Jason went over swiftly and did a quick examination. He then proceeded to study the medical records. Shortly after, he said to Amos, "Let's go out and talk!"

"That's not necessary!" the Old Master said, "I'm an old man. What else could possibly be new to me? Do you think that I'm afraid of dying? Just say it!"

Jason gave Amos a troubled look. He nodded.

"Tell me!"

Jason parted his lips reluctantly and explained, "The Old Master's treatment plan is working, so... my conclusion remains unchanged."

The room was instantly quiet and the assistant hurriedly went over to the Old Master. He said, "Shall I take you home to rest?"

"I will not be dying anytime soon!" the Old Master exclaimed as he looked at Amos, "Are you relieved now? What other ruckus are you going to cause? Let's be done with it once and for all!"

Amos frowned, "I have nothing else in mind. Since you're in such good health, what kind of trouble would I be able to cause?" The Old Master coughed twice and panted, "I don't think you would ever be satisfied until I'm dead."

The assistant dared not let him stay any longer. He quickly sent the Old Master home.

The assistant finally spoke after they left the building.

"Chairman, the Young Master is just worried about you. Why are you so strict with him?"

The Old Master was quiet for a long time. He finally let out a sigh.

"What do you know? He will never grow into a good man if I keep protecting and sheltering him. Back then, I was too kind to his older brother. He couldn't even get over a woman and that was why he died. Amos grew up alone and he was not by my side ever since he was a child, but he is a tough person. Only by doing this would he and Valiant East be able to grow."

The assistant was helpless. He said, "But isn't this a little unfair for the Young Master?"

Old Master Granger snorted.

"Ha, it seems as though you have been bought over by him huh? I haven't even settled the mess that you had made. Who gave you the courage to do such a thing behind my back?"

The assistant lowered his head hastily and apologized, "I'm sorry!"

"Don't do it again!"

In the lounge, Amos directed his question at Jason after Old Master Granger left.

"Is there any other way?"

Jason shook his head and explained, "In fact, the medical facilities in Rosaville City is considered on par with the ones overseas. The Old Master has been receiving the best treatment he could have. It would be better if you spend more time with him instead of overthinking about this matter."

Amos gave a wry smile. He finally said after a long pause, "Thank you."

"You're welcome!"

After Jason left, Amos took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

A trickle of smoke came from the tip of his cigarette, blocking his sight.

After a long while, Clint pushed through the door and walked towards Amos, "President Granger, the lawyer is here!"

"Alright!" Amos got up and left the lounge.

Meanwhile, Wendy had finally calmed down after some time. The first thing she saw when she entered the hall was Clint pushing Amos, who was in his wheelchair, onto the stage.

"A warm welcome to the distinguished guests who had taken the time to attend the party today. I know that the media has been very supportive of Valiant East for the longest time. Therefore, I think that this is a good time for me to make an announcement."

Everyone stopped everything they were doing at that instant. "Does Valiant East have a new business plan?" Amos shook his head and said, "No, this is pertaining to my personal life!"

"President Granger, are you finally getting married?"

"That must be the case! President Granger has been engaged for the past five years. It would make sense for him to get married now. Congratulations!"
