Bethany Hamilton shook her head, "I've already forgotten everything that had happened in the past."
However, the Old Master still remembered all of them very clearly, "At that time, I refused to accept my family's arrangement, and I refused to treat you well. Later, I thought of getting a divorce. When I look back now, I realize how stupid I was at that time. I have hurt you and myself for my entire life. In the end, I also hurt her. I have learned my lesson. I will take every chance that comes at me in my next life."
Bethany smiled and said, "Okay. I understand. It's late. Go to sleep!"
The Old Master nodded and finally closed his eyes. After that, Bethany tucked him in and went out.
Kaylene Yoder had been waiting patiently outside the room. When she saw Bethany emerging from the room, she stormed over angrily.
"Bethany, did you hear that? The Old Master did not hand Valiant East to you. Instead, he gave it to Amos..."
Bethany's expression did not change, but she said blandly, "Didn't the old man say that Amos will take care of Vincent and me..."
"Bethany, are you that gullible? Do you really believe that he would do that? Amos is not your son. And Juju is a bully. She dared to bully Vincent in front of the Old Master. What do you think will happen in the future? Even if you don't care about yourself, you should at least do it for Vincent, right?"
Bethany frowned, "That's enough. I just want to take good care of the Old Master now. I don't want to think about anything else."
Kaylene felt as though she had wasted all her effort trying to persuade Bethany. She was so angry that she could not stand it.
"Bethany, what's the point of treating him so well? You're not even his favorite woman. It's her! Otherwise, why didn't he leave anything for you? You..."
Before she finished speaking, Bethany suddenly raised her hand and gave Kaylene a slap.
Kaylene was stunned. Not only did Bethany slap her, but there was also a flash of hatred on her face. This was something she had never seen before.
After being stunned for three seconds, Bethany retracted her hand and silently retreated into her room.
Kaylene stood there for a while before she turned around and went back to her place.
As soon as she arrived back at her place, Harry Granger ran over.
"How did it go? What was Bethany's reaction?"
"What reaction? She's just the same as before. She even slapped me! If I were to treat her well from now on, consider me a maniac!"
Harry frowned and said, "That's impossible! Does she really not have any thoughts on the Old Master's plan?"
"Anyway, don't ask me to talk to her anymore," After that, Kaylene gritted her teeth and went back.
Harry turned his head and looked in the direction of the Ruby House. His face darkened even more. It seemed like it was time to do something!
After that night, the Old Master was in poor health for a period of time. Even the family dinner that he would usually hold every week had been canceled.
However, Juju was acting a little strange. Before this, she did not like having family dinner with the Old Master, but recently she was always looking forward to it.
Every day, she would ask, "Mommy, when are we going to the main room for dinner?"
Eudora would then say, "Why?"
Juju was a little shy, but she still expressed her thoughts clearly.
"I want to see Grandpa. Grandpa did not look too good the other day. So..."
Juju was a good child. Eudora nodded and said, "Then let's go and see Grandpa. We don't have to wait till dinner to see him."
"But, Grandpa is not really fond of you."
It turned out that this little girl was actually worried about this. Juju was still so young, yet she was already considering for her mother! Eudora felt a little distressed, "It's okay!" Recently, the Old Master often went to feed the fishes whenever he felt up for it, so Eudora brought Juju to the fish pond.
