Chapter 50 Don’t Want, Don’t Give
When Bill arrived home, old lady was waiting in the main hall.
He didn’t even make a greeting and went straight to the stairs.
“Stop!” Old lady finally stopped him. She knocked on the floor with her walking stick and said, “I’m not dead yet. Do you think I’m transparent?”
He stopped but didn’t turn around.
She stood up slowly, turned around, looked at his back and warned, “don’t you know you are wrong after such a big thing happened? If you die outside, there will be no one to give you a sip of water!”
“Grandma, what do you want to say?” He replied flatly.
“You know what I want to say. Get married as soon as possible and give birth to a grandson for the Huo family. No matter what you do outside, I won’t care about you anymore!” she said.
“Get married? Grandson?”Bill suddenly sneered and said viciously, “if you hadn’t forced me to buy the ring with that woman, I wouldn’t have quarreled with her and almost died!”
“If you want me to die, just keep pushing!”
Without waiting for old lady’s response, he went upstairs.
Stunned, she stood still and carefully looked at what he had just said. The seriousness in her eyes gradually became complicated.
She had thought that the car accident was caused by his anger with others, but she didn’t expect that it was because of her?
She almost killed her only grandson?
When she was lost in thought, the phone on the table vibrated.
She turned her head and looked at the name “Sharon” on the screen. She didn’t respond until the phone was hung up automatically.
On the other side, Sharon was so depressed that she took her phone back to the contact list.
Maybe old lady didn’t see it.
She called again, but no one answered.
Holding the phone in her hand, she became alert subconsciously.
Old lady had never avoided her like this. What was going on?
A strong sense of uneasiness made her restless. Finally, she couldn’t sit still. After putting on a thick makeup, she immediately went to the Huo family’s house.
When she arrived, Bill was already gone.
Feeling that old lady treated her as usual, Sharon felt relieved.
But she hadn’t forgotten about the engagement ring.
Thinking of this, Sharon sighed heavily and said, “Alas!”
“What’s wrong? Who made you unhappy again?” Old lady looked at her with concern.
“Nothing.” Sharon shook her head with a sad face, tears streaming down her face.
Old lady’s heart softened when she saw her tearful face. She quickly stood up and sat next to her. She said in a lower voice, “Sharon, take it easy If you have any grievance, just tell me and I will help you.”
Sharon sobbed in a low voice and didn’t say anything. She deliberately exposed ten fingers of her two hands in a position that old lady could see.
After a while, old lady lowered her head and found that her hand was bare. She picked it up and asked nervously, “don’t you have the engagement ring that Bill bought for you?”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Upon hearing this, Sharon hugged her and sobbed, “Grandma! After paying the bill, he took the ring away. I didn’t even have the time to take a look at it!”
“Really?” old lady said angrily, “this bastard is playing tricks on me now!”
Seeing that her goal was achieved, Sharon let go of her, lowered her head and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. She pretended to be considerate and said, “grandma, don’t blame him. Maybe Bill really wants to keep it for me, but everyone in the city knows that he has bought a proposal ring. If my friends find that the ring is not on my hand, they don’t know how to make fun of me secretly!”
“Well…” old lady was in a dilemma.
In the past few years, everyone in the circle knew that Sharon was her granddaughter in law. If she didn’t have Bill’s engagement ring, it would indeed have a great impact on the reputation of a girl. If they didn’t know, it would probably spread that the Huo family had kicked her out.
But it was just a ring, and Bill almost died. If she put pressure on him for the engagement again, she was afraid that she would force something wrong.
Old lady had always been hard-hearted and almost inhuman in front of him. But in private, she loved him the most, leaving aside the matter of Sharon. How could she really want him to die.
Seeing that old lady didn’t say anything, a hint of impatience flashed in Sharon’s eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She pretended to be obedient, with tears in her eyes. She held old lady’s arm and said, “in fact, it doesn’t matter. The worst result is that I have less contact with people recently. In the future, when I marry him, I have to put my family first. Now it’s time to get used to it.”
Old lady reached out her hand and touched her head to comfort her. “That’s it. As long as you know that grandma is on your side, you don’t have to be afraid of anything.”
“Okay!” She turned her back to old lady and frowned impatiently.
What happened to old lady today? Why didn’t she give it to her?
No, she couldn’t do that again. Otherwise, old lady would really think that she had no bottom line and wouldn’t fight for anything for her in the future!

After the exhibition, the new products of the JS group became popular and the sales volume continued to reach a new record.
Bill passed the construction project of the regiment, which was a free seaside trip.
Originally, as long as the salary was paid, the employment relationship between Andy and JS would be terminated. But because the construction project was for the design department and this year’s new product designs, there would be reporters following and reporting, so as a designer, she had to be present.
Sunshine, waves, bikini and the whole beach were full of hormones.
The people of the JS group occupied a large area. They gathered together and it was very lively.
Not many people knew her, and she was afraid of being tanned, so she found a deck chair with a ray of sunshine and sat on it to feel the sea wind.
Bill was the last one to arrive. As soon as he arrived, he was surrounded by reporters for an interview. As soon as she saw him, she covered her whole face with a sun hat and lay back on the chair, pretending to be asleep.
When she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard a very gentle voice.
“Amy,”
She suddenly opened her eyes and turned her head aside. “Susan? What’s up?”
Susan smiled awkwardly and scratched her hair behind her ear. “Well, I want to ask you if you want to play beach basketball with us?”
As she spoke, she looked at the basketball court far away, which was not very formal.
There, Helen and a group of colleagues were staring at the two of them with a playful expression.
Susan was the only one who had helped her in the company. Obviously, if she didn’t go, when she resigned, she would have a hard time.
Those people came for her.
They just wanted to win the game and release their anger.
“Okay.” “I’ll go with you!”
