Chapter 246 : Don’t mess with me
Lindsey knew in her heart that the only good thing to do at this time was to say yes, so she nodded her head gently.
“Good … good …” Old Mr. Bosh’s face finally showed a smile of relief, holding Lindsey’s hand and gradually closing his eyes.
Lindsey felt his body temperature turn cold a little, the whole person instantly powerless to slide down, instantly cried out in pain. “Grandpa …”
Fisher was horrified, mournful, went forward to test Old Mr. Bosh’s nostrils, fiercely kneeling to the ground. “Father …”
Elise just entered the door, heard his brother’s wailing, blacked out and fainted.
The ward was a mess of sobs and shouts, Bruce holding Lindsey tightly, constantly calming her down.
Lindsey couldn’t make a sound, tears were falling, and only after a long time did she speak with a trembling voice: “Bruce, Grandpa is gone …”
“Good girl, you can’t get too excited right now.” Bruce lowered his head and kissed her forehead, his heart aching as if it was about to crack open at any moment. “Grandpa Zhang went peacefully, think more about our baby.”
Lindsey nodded woodenly, but she couldn’t stop the tears.
After a few moments in the hospital room, the funeral parlor’s hearse arrived, Lindsey took refuge in the side, clinging to Bruce’s arm, tears once again rushed out.
After sending Old Mr. Bosh away, Lindsey apologized to Professor Lee and asked Lily to leave first.
Lindsey didn’t say a word on the way, her eyes were red and swollen, and she was huddled in Bruce’s arms in a state of distress.
Old Mr. Bosh left too suddenly, Lindsey did not have the slightest heart to prepare, especially his deathbed explanation, but also like a stone, heavy pressure on the heart.
The Bosh family is not short of this money, but this is also the legacy of the old man, in the end, to fall into their hands for nothing, no one can accept.
“What’s on your mind?” Bruce was worried that she was too sad, so he deliberately found a topic to coax her. “Old age, sickness and death are laws, and you are a medical student, you should be numb to it.”
“No, Old Mr. Bosh is still my family and Lily’s.” Lindsey sullenly lifted her head and sniffled. “Even though we haven’t spent much time together, we still can’t let go of our hearts.”
Bruce gently tightened the force in his hand and nodded in approval.
Lindsey is very affectionate, this he knows better than anyone else, knew Old Mr. Bosh for a short time, even if there is no blood relationship, she will be sad about this. After thinking about this, he did not persuade, but only tenderly hugged her.
Back at the old house, Lily received a phone call from Edward, so she offered to go out.
Lindsey thought that Edward should also know the news of Old Mr. Bosh’s death, so she agreed to her request and asked Hector to drive her there.
Once Lily left, Lindsey and Bruce were the only two people left in the living room, in silence.
After a long time, Lindsey’s emotions had almost calmed down, and she asked Bruce if he had Fisher Bosh’s
Professor Bosh’s phone number.
“What do you need this for?” Bruce looked at her in confusion. “I have a home phone number here.”
“You forgot what Old Mr. Bosh told me to do on his deathbed. The money doesn’t look like a lot, but what will the children and grandchildren of The Bosh family think when it’s given to me for nothing.” Lindsey’s tone was thick with sadness. “I don’t want him to go away and be cursed by my children and grandchildren.”
“Tell you what, I’ll go with you to The Bosh family tonight and talk things over with Professor Bosh.” Bruce pondered and said, “They can donate the royalties if they want to, but if they don’t, we’re not short of money anyway.”
Lindsey pursed her lips and agreed to his proposal, but she felt uneasy.
After a light nap at noon, she woke up with only half an hour left to go to work.
Lindsey hurriedly washed up and saw that Lily hadn’t returned yet, so she got in the car and called Edward.
After talking, she learned that they had already returned to the American Academy, so she put her mind at ease.
Bruce saw that she was not in good spirits, and felt even more distressed, and could not help but advise, “Why don’t you stop working this afternoon, your health is important.”
“It’s okay, I can handle it.” Lindsey forced out a smile and leaned softly into his arms. “The baby can handle it, too.”
Bruce took her face and planted a deep kiss on her lips, then lowered his head to her stomach and whispered, “You heard the boys, mommy told you all to hold on, and I’ll spank whoever drops the ball.”
Lindsey watched his nonsense, mood gradually become better. “They can’t hear you.”
“That’s okay, I’ll keep talking if I can’t hear them.” Bruce saw her smile and felt the whole world brighten up as he came up to her belly again and nagged her. “I’m your daddy, make sure you remember my voice.”
His thin lips brushed against his belly, making Lindsey feel itchy and want to laugh. “You’re bored.”
“Where am I bored.” Bruce defied. “It’s called fetal education.”
Lindsey did not bother to talk to him, leaned back and closed her eyes comfortably.
Bruce played with himself for a while and couldn’t resist covering his hands and asking pathetically, “How long will it be before they hear my voice?”
“Another two months.” Lindsey twisted his ear in amusement and said deliberately, “But you’ll be back in the army by then, so there’s no chance for them to remember your voice.”
“Then I’ll call you every day and talk to you for ten minutes and talk to them for ten minutes.” Bruce imagined it and thought his idea was very sound.
Lindsey shook her head and lost her smile, but didn’t object.
When they arrived at the American Academy, Lindsey got out of the car and found Lily, barked a couple of instructions and let Hector drive her back up the hill.
This time Edward did not remain silent, but took the initiative to call out to her. “Lindsey, why don’t you let Lily stay in the city for a few days, and when Old Mr. Bosh’s funeral is over, I’ll take her up the mountain myself.”
Lindsey was noncommittal, glanced sideways at Lily and asked, “Lily, what do you think, going back to the mountain or staying in the city?”
“I want to stay with Edward.” Lily lowered her head, the corners of her lips lifting in a slight arc of pleasure.
Lindsey took in her little expression and graciously agreed, but still gave her a stern warning not to get into trouble outside.
“I got it!” Lily was so happy that she couldn’t help but jump up and hug Edward. “My sister promised.”
Edward amusingly peeled her off his body and looked up at Bruce. “Want to come to my office?”
Bruce shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, embracing Lindsey upstairs and hugging her reluctantly before releasing her.
Lindsey returned to the office, there are still colleagues who have not come, Aurora is in the mirror to fix the wig. She was in a depressed mood, so she didn’t think much about it, just pulled out a chair and sat down.
When she opened the drawer, a yellow chameleon with red letters was staring at her fingertips warily. As if as long as she reaches in, it will not hesitate to bite up.
The childish … Lindsey breathlessly pursed, pretending not to see the look, plucked away the chameleon and took out the information inside.
When in Africa, she is not even afraid of poisonous snakes, and how will be afraid of a chameleon.
Aurora waited for a long time without seeing her reaction, and could not help but tilt the angle of the mirror slightly to shine on her body.
Lindsey noticed her movement, and coldly grabbed the chameleon and threw it at Aurora’s face with great speed.
“Ah …” Aurora screamed in terror, jumping up on her desk in a panic and cursing at Lindsey. “Lindsey don’t you go too far!”
Lindsey clapped her hands together, clasped her hands to her chest, tilted her head slightly to look at her, cold eyes as sharp as a hawk’s, and took a chill down Aurora’s back.
She didn’t say anything, but a colleague on the side said helpfully, “Teacher Palvin, didn’t you bring that chameleon yourself.”
“You are talking nonsense, when did I bring it.” Aurora got down from the table in a fury and slapped the chameleon off her body. “It clearly flew out of Lindsey’s drawer.”
The teacher smiled with a flash of mockery under her eyes. “Since you didn’t bring it with you, how come there’s a box with chameleons in the trash can near your desk.”
“Forget it Demi, you just photographed her bringing it, and she won’t admit it.” Lindsey finished, her voice abruptly turned cold, and her gaze looked straight into Aurora’s eyes. “I’m in a bad mood today, I don’t want to bother with you about such trivial things.”
“Hehe … is really generous, it is me who does not care, what pretend to pretend.” Aurora indignantly sat back, heart Demi also hated together.
If she hadn’t talked too much, she would have had every reason to take this to the school office, and Lindsey wouldn’t have been dismissed, but also her reputation would have been greatly damaged.
It’s a shame that a good plan was ruined by an unscrupulous person.
The air was silent as Lindsey opened her notepad, looked at the content of today’s lecture, and took her handout to class.
She was so distressed and saddened by the loss of Old Mr. Bosh that she stopped several times during the lecture and forced herself to take a deep breath so she wouldn’t cry in front of the students.
After the class, Lindsey went back to her office and found the atmosphere inside was not good, so she turned around and went to Assistant Chen’s office.
Professor Lee did not go back to school at noon, but went to Fragrant Garden. According to Assistant Chen, it seems that Fisher asked him to go there to help him read the academic manuscript left by Old Mr. Bosh.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Lindsey’s temples ached vaguely, and after sitting for a while, he got up and went back to his office.
When he sat down tiredly, his cell phone, which he had left in a drawer, suddenly hissed with vibration. Pulling it out and looking at the number, she sullenly slid open the answer button. “Larissa, what’s up.”
“The troops are arriving tomorrow afternoon, and the guys asked me to ask you when the reception will be.” Larissa’s tone was relaxed and she seemed to be in a good mood. “Everyone asked for a full banquet.”
Lindsey perked up and reluctantly smiled, “No problem, how about Moon Pavilion? We can also go to the nearby hot springs for a dip after we eat in the evening.”
“Are you unhappy?” Larissa reacted as an afterthought when she heard her voice was hoarse. “Or are you sick?”
“It’s a little hard, you remember the Old Mr. Bosh who overpaid for my calligraphy the day the fund was established, he’s gone.” Lindsey explained, sounding increasingly sad. “Left this morning.”
“Ah, so suddenly …” Larissa let out a low gasp and sighed, “I saw him fine some time ago.”
Lindsey sniffed and couldn’t help but feel something. “The world is unpredictable, I was a guest at his home some time ago, and in a flash, the world is separated.”
Larissa comforted, and suddenly said, “I think I saw your sister, and the one from The Harris family.”
