Chapter 837


    T — here was dead silence in the office. Neither of the two brothers spoke. The atmosphere was


    filled with sorrow.


    "When did you know? Why didn''t you tell me earlier?" Joshua lowered his arm, raised his head and


    looked at his brother, and spoke with a tone of grievance.


    "I only found out not too long ago. Before this, I would ask the doctor about grandpa''s condition


    every day, but the doctor also gave me the same answer, always telling me that grandpa''s condition


    is good." Edwards''s expression was filled with sorrow, as he answered with a stiff voice.

    "This quack, he lied to us like that, Isn''t he afraid that I''ll smash his signboard? Whom he thinks we


    are? How dare him lie to us about grandfather''s illness." Joshua scolded angrily.


    "Scolding him is useless. It was all agreed upon by grandpa and grandma!" However, Edwards was


    still able to calmly ept the truth.


    "Grandpa is really stubborn. He''s so sick, yet he doesn''t let us know. He''s actually trying to make us


    worry about him, isn''t he?" Joshua vented his anger on the old man again.


    "Grandfather just doesn''t want us to grieve for him. I believe that every elder is willing to understand


    this matter." Edwards exined softly.


    Joshua suddenly realized that there was no one left to scold, and he could only depress himself. He


    looked at Edwards nkly: "Then what can we do now? Brother, tell me!"


    Edwards looked at him fixedly, and then, he sighed: "At least, while Grandfather is still here, don''t


    do anything that will anger him."


    "What do we do to make him not angry? Don''t tell me that we have to make John Wayne stay away


    from prison." Joshua''s mind was in a mess, he could not even grasp his center of gravity, he could


    only feel anger in his heart, and wanted to vent it out.


    "I have already decided to get engaged to Lily, and have already asked Larry to help me prepare for


    this matter. In three days, we will finish the betrothal ceremony and get married at the end of the


    month!" Edwards said out his decision.


    "Engaged in three days? Is there time to be prepared in such a hurry? " When Joshua heard about


    this, his expression was nk for a moment. Then, he frowned as he felt that he didn''t have enough


    time.


    "Enough, I''ll try my best to make them prepare a bit more extravagantly in a limited amount of time.


    Because the decision is too hasty, I can ept everything that is imperfect. I just want to make


    grandpa happy and let him feel at ease!" Answered in a low voice, he, who was originally being


    extremely fastidious, no longer needed to think about the details anymore. He only wanted this


    result: engagement, marriage, one step at a time.


    "Alright, brother. Coincidentally, I have nothing to do these past few days. I''ll help you prepare the


    engagement banquet as well." Joshua actually hoped that his brother''s engagement ceremony


    would be a bit grander, as Lily was worthy of giving her best memories.


    On Edwards''s handsome face, there was finally a hint of a smile, and he said gently: "I won''t trouble


    you. I''ve already asked Larry to do this, his abilities are not bad, I believe I will be satisfied!"


    "But I want to help too!" After Joshua finished speaking, he suddenly raised his gaze, met


    Edwards''s uncertain eyes, and immediately exined anxiously: "Brother, don''t misunderstand, I


    want to help. It''s not because I still have any feelings towards Lily, it''s just that I purely want to help


    make the engagement ceremony a little better!"


    Seeing that he was so anxious that his face was swollen, Edwards couldn''t help butugh. "I know,


    you don''t need to exin to me anymore. I can see for a long time that your feelings for Elizabeth


    Jones are very different


    "She? I don''t want to talk about her now! " Joshua''s expression shed with anger. Evidently,


    Elizabeth''s deception had alreadypletely hurt his heart.


    Edwards said in a warm voice, "Don''t hate her. She also has her own bitterness, and during that


    recording just now, you could tell that she was only thinking about family rtionships and didn''t


    help April Jones to escape for her sin."


    "I don''t care what she wanted to do, she lied to me!" Joshua gnashed his teeth.


    "Don''t you hate her so much but you still fought for herst night?" Edwards felt that his little brother


    was sometimes very childish and said that he didn''t like her, but in his heart, he had already treated


    her like a treasure.


    "That''s because... I don''t like others to touch my stuff, even if it''s something I don''t want! " Joshua


    found an extremely far - fetched reason.


    "Alright, I won''t try to persuade you otherwise. This is your rtionship; you decide it yourself!"


    Edwards decided not to bring it up anymore.


    "Brother, are we really not going to publicize this matter before grandpa leaves? What if John


    Wayne went overboard? Maybe he has even more despicable methods waiting for you. This time


    when hees out, he probably wants your position. So, you have to be careful of him!" The more


    Joshua thought about it, the more unwilling he became. There was always a bad breath in his heart.


    He can''t feel happy without vomiting


    "Of course, I''ve always been on guard against him. Don''t worry, I won''t let my guard down!"


    Edwards''s cold eyes shed with a trace of hostility; hisrge palm clenched into a fist.


    "Brother, how much time do you think your grandfather has left? Was it a year? " Joshua suddenly


    looked like a frightened child, unease shing across his eyes.


    "I hope it''s a year, but the situation isn''t looking good. Maybe a few months, maybe ..." Edwards


    suddenly became silent, he did not want to continue anymore.


    Joshua''s body froze, his expression became uneasy: "Will it really be that fast? If John Wayne knew


    about this, would he stop? Did he not feel that grandfather''s severe illness all those years ago was


    caused by him? Would he feel a little guilty? Does he have a conscience?"


    Edwards sneered, and ridiculed: "Do you still expect that someone who can even kill his brother to


    have any conscience? He has always resented grandfather''s bias in his heart. If he were to find out


    about this news, he would probably have to fight over the shares in his grandfather''s hands at the


    first possible moment!"


    Joshua''s face changed. That''s right, he was dreaming that John Wayne would turn back and see


    the shore.


    "Brother, then even more so, don''t let him know about grandpa''s situation. When he''s ruthless, he


    really doesn''t care about grandpa''s life!" Joshua said angrily.


    "He will be here tonight. Do you want to meet him?" Edwards sneered.


    Joshua shook his head: "I don''t want to see him, I''m afraid I won''t be able to resist killing him!"


    "You have to calm down! He is a monster, and you''re not! You won''t bite people recklessly!"


    Edwards immediately taught his younger brother.


    Of course, it was impossible for Joshua to actually kill someone, he just felt that he had a rather bad


    temper. After seeing John Wayne, he could not stay calm, and knew that if he did anything


    unpleasant, it would probably irritate his grandfather''s illness.


    "Alright, I''ll do my best to control my temper. Bro, take the recording. I''ll be leaving first!" After


    Joshua finished speaking, he turned around and left. Only, he no longer felt the excitement he felt


    when he discovered something new.
