Chapter 1454 - 1458: Cannot Remain in the World of the Living

"Grandpa!" Beitang Che rushed over, seeing that his grandfather had fainted, and frightfully bent down to hold the elder’s frail body, carrying him to the infirmary and placing him on the hospital bed!

The elderly man’s personal doctor was Sister Chen’s husband, who was inside providing first aid to the old man.

Meanwhile, everyone outside the room was in a hectic frenzy, especially Ling Mei, who trembled as she said, "What should we do now? The old master has always thought Bai Xi died in an accident, and now that he knows the truth, we will certainly go to jail!"

With a history of harming others, a sudden idea sprang up in her mind, leaving her completely stunned: The old master cannot be allowed to stay alive...

"Ling Mei, what are you thinking of doing?" Beitang Ting grabbed Ling Mei’s hand and saw her trying to open the infirmary door, causing his heart to tremble suddenly!

He was afraid she might do something harmful to his father...

At this moment, the infirmary door opened. Lao Chen appeared with a pale face and eyes filled with sorrow. He glanced at Beitang Ting and sighed as he said, "The old master has had a stroke, and now he’s paralyzed. How his condition is, we won’t know until he wakes up..."

Hearing this, Beitang Ting immediately released Ling Mei’s hand, pushed open the door, walked inside, and looked at the elder wearing an oxygen mask. He softly called out, "Dad! Wake up!"

But no matter how much Beitang Ting called out, the elder lay motionless on the bed, not even opening his eyes to look at him.

This left Beitang Ting quite caught off guard; he never expected that the truth from ten years ago would render his father like this.

"Lao Chen, do you mean to say the old master had a stroke? Is this true?" Ling Mei’s lips curled into an imperceptible smile, waiting for Lao Chen’s response.

Lao Chen particularly despised the second wife in front of him, having heard about all her actions for a long time. Now, because of her, his wife had been assigned to the ranch by Young Master Yao!

However, bound by her status as the master’s family, he nodded.

"Lao Chen, if you dare to reveal what happened today, I will make sure you know the consequences of betraying us!" Ling Mei sneered, finally relaxing. As long as the old man had a stroke, he couldn’t reveal anything, and as long as she threatened Lao Chen, he surely wouldn’t dare to disclose the matter either.

Lao Chen stared blankly at Ling Mei, sighing inwardly; this woman truly wasn’t someone to underestimate. She even dared to plot against the old master!

Ling Mei walked into the room, stood on the other side, amusingly looked at the seemingly filial Beitang Ting, crossed her arms, coldly chuckled, and said, "Beitang Ting, I suggest you stop blaming yourself. Even if the old master had heard this, he is now unable to act or speak; he won’t ruin our plans. As long as he never wakes up, our secrets will remain safe." Ling Mei secretly calculated in her mind that even if the old man awoke, a stroke was a painful struggle for him. By then, he might wake up as a simpleton.

Now, as long as she keeps the old man here under the guise of taking care of him, Beitang Yao probably won’t be able to drive her and her son away.

How beautifully she planned!

Although the elder couldn’t speak, he could clearly hear everything! He silently vowed in his heart: If he recovered, he would harshly punish these two people! How dare they commit such an atrocious deed, and now they want to use him as a pawn? Dream on!
