Chapter 510
Gladys approached him with her hands on her hips, saying, “Be honest, or don‘t ever think about setting foot in this house again.” James looked insigned. “Mom, it was nothing. The police made a mistake. If I had done something wrong, do you think they‘d release me after just one night?” “Are you sure.” Gladys still had her reservations,
She was territied when she saw what happened yesterday
Confidently, James said, “I promise everything‘s okay. Also, a lot is going on at Medical Street today. Do you want to come, mom?” “I‘ll pass.”
How could she be interested after this?
So much had happened recently, and David was still in the hospital.
“Come in and we‘ll talk about it.” Thea pulled James into the house and shut the door behind him.
James entered and sat on the couch. He looked at Benjamin. “Dad, do you want to go?”
Benjamin was intrigued.
Rumor had it this particular medical conterence was even more liappening than usual. There were many famous doctors in attendance, including international ones.
He glanced at Gladys and shook his head. “I don‘t think so.”
James did not say anything else. He looked at Thea and said, “Darling, go get changed. We‘ll head down to Medical Street.”
“Okay.”
Thea went to her room.
James took a cigarette out and started smoking again.
Knock knock knock
Someone knocked on the door again.
Gladys said, “James, go get the door.” James obeyed When he saw Lex, he could not help asking, “Grandfather?”
Lex walked in and held onto James‘ hand tightly, his face full of gratitude. “James, thank you. Thank you!”
James smiled.
Gladys walked up to them, confusion clear on her face. “Dad, what‘s going on? It‘s too early to say thanks. What did this piece of trash do?”
Gladys still looked confused. She looked at James, asking, “And what does this have to do with James?”
