Chapter 988 Slow To React
"Why not give her two million? She is too old. She can hire a nanny if she falls or has no one to care for
her."
"But a nanny can also be malicious. What if she encounters elder abuse? She is all alone. What should
she do?"
"Why don''t we bring her over and care for ourselves!"
ir was speechless.
But ir still had his sanity. Today, he lost his job to help her, and he could not see the wedding dress
in his dream fulfill its mission.
Giving away a few more million and taking care of this olddy? He did not have the energy for it.
Besides, she was not his grandmother. Why should he take care of her?
Helen pretended to be pitiful all the way. ir only gave her a few thousand when she got off the car.
"Grandma, take this as a token of my appreciation and buy some fruits. I can only send you here." He
said.
After pretending for so long, she only got a few thousand.
What can she do with just a few thousand dors!
Helen suddenly became agitated and could not pretend anymore.
She angrily pped away the money and scolded, "I thought you were a generous person. How can
you give a few hundred to me? I''m not a beggar!"N?velDrama.Org content.
ir never expected that the olddy would suddenly change her attitude. He was stunned.
Helen became more and more angry the more she thought about it.
Without ir''s constant interference, she might have already gotten the money from Hannah.
He ruined her n.
"Phew! Trash!" Helen stomped on ir''s foot and spat at him before angrily walking away.
ir stood dumbfounded in ce.
At this moment, he felt like aplete fool.
How could this happen?
Even the Holy Mother Ghost sighed and said, "Forget it. People get a little temperamental when they
get old."
"She''s been holding in all the grievances she suffered at the Crawford family, and it''s not good for her
health. Let her vent it out."
"But those two children from the Crawford family are so pitiful."
ir stared nkly in the direction in which Helen had disappeared for a long time.
Ultimately, he sighed and picked up the money from the ground.
However, there was always a feeling of difort in his heart, making him almost depressed.
After Helen left, Hannah stood at the door and looked for a while. Subconsciously, she made eye
contact with Zachary.
Liam pulled both of them in front of him. He hesitated for a while and clumsily reached out to touch their
heads.
He wanted to say something. But when he opened his mouth, he could not say anything. He just said,
"I''m here."
Hannah and Zachary suddenly felt relieved.
Lilly pinched her fingers and calcted the time.
With Helen causing such amotion, it was the perfect timing.
"Hurry up, Uncle Anthony, Aunt Lisa. It''s time!"
They decided to skip the formalities of receiving and waiting for guests to arrive.
"Granny, hurry up. I want to see Uncle Max''s technology!"
Max immediately said, "Leave it to me! Today, I will show you my masterpiece."
After driving away both ir and Helen, Bettany scolded again, feeling somewhat relieved.
She said with a refreshed tone, "Let''s go!"
The Crawford family immediately entered the hall, and the emcee quickly took the microphone to
prepare.
The etiquette staff also hurriedly arranged the guests to their seats.
Lisa, however, looked around and said, "Wait, wait!"
Anthony immediately asked, "What''s going on?"
Cloud said, "Lisa wanted to kick that olddy out just now, so I had to stop her. But she didn''t listen."
"And then she threw her high heel out."
Now she regretted it.
She repeatedly imed that her shoes were worth millions of dors and adorned with numerous
diamonds.
Cloud searched for a long time but could not find them.
"Where did you throw them?" Anthony asked helplessly with a smile.
The unpleasantness that Helen had been causingpletely vanished with this interruption.
Lisa pointed to a low slope on the side and said aggrievedly, "Over there, if he didn''t stop me, I could
have thrown it right at her."
Lilly said, "Aunt Lisa, you would have suffered a big loss. Such expensive shoes hitting someone
unworthy would be so sad."
Lisa blinked as if it made sense.
She immediately shook her head and said, "I won''t throw them anymore!"
Everyone was helpless and amused, but what else could they do?
They bent individually and carefully searched for Lisa''s high heel in the cluster of roses on the low
slope.
"Time is running out. I will find it." Lilly reached into the backpack on Zachary''s back and took out
Tortoise.
The Tortoise was eating a piece of fish in his mouth.
Wait, let me swallow this piece of meat first.
Swish!
Lilly turned it around.
Tortoise, reluctantly holding the meat in its mouth, looked up at the sky and suddenly noticed how blue
it was.
The fish in its mouth became even more delicious.
At the right moment, the Tortoise swallowed the fish in one bite.
As an old Tortoise, he needed to take care of his health. For example, he should not eat while turning in
circles.
Before Lilly said anything, everyone looked towards the Tortoise''s tail and said, "This way!"
"Let''s look over here."
"Ah, I found it!"
Edward excitedly raised the high heel and proudly said, "Thanks to Lilly."
Bettany quickly said, "Stop showing off. Let''s hurry!"
The Crawford family entered the hall lively and happily.
Even Hannah quickly got ready. She was the flower girl, after all.
Zachary held the Tortoise and watched his siblings walk away from a distance. He still felt disappointed
and heartbroken about Helen.
He used to worry about what would happen to Helen when she got old, but now he suddenly did not
want to think about these problems anymore.
When she got old, he would not care about her.
As his sister said, there must be something hateful about pitiful people.
Everyone started to get busy with the wedding preparations, except for Zachary, who walked slowly
while contemting and recalling what had just happened.
