Chapter 321
The Old Master sighed.
"I gave up my marriage and love for the Granger family. In the end, I disappointed my beloved ones.
And for what? I will not be able to wash away my sins for the rest of my life. I only hope that if I could
treat them better if I were to have a chance to in my next life."
Amos' lips parted. He wanted to say, "Don't die." But when he was about to speak, he changed his
mind and instead said, "Do you think there will be a next life? There will be nothing left if you die."
A trace of sadness flashed across Old Master Granger's eyes.
After a long time, he sighed and said, "You b*stard, couldn't you just let me be happy for once? Don’t
quarrel with me, okay? Forget it. You may leave now! I want to see Eudora."
Amos Granger frowned, "Don't make things difficult for her!"
"Hmph! Why do you think that I would do that?"
Amos went out and nodded at Eudora, "He wants to see you."
Steven Granger, who was behind him, glanced at Eudora George in surprise. He did not expect the Old
Master to want to see Eudora at this point.
Eudora was also surprised. She thought that she had only done what she should do. She didn't know
why the Old Master had suddenly asked for her.
She went into the room after passing Juju to Amos.
The Old Master had an oxygen mask on, and his breathing was very heavy. Eudora was frightened
when she heard his tired breaths, so she hurried over and asked in a low voice.
"Old Master, I heard that you asked for me."
The Old Master took two more breaths before opening her eyes and looking at her.
After a long time, he finally asked in a hoarse voice, "You're here."
Eudora nodded, "Yes!"
"That's great," The Old Master said, "I'm afraid that I can't go on anymore. There are a lot of things that
I could only tell you..."
The Old Master was very frank. This was a well-acknowledged secret. Eudora felt a little uneasy but
she did not refute him.
"Please go ahead. I'll definitely help you."
"Good!" The Old Master laughed, "I know that you are a good child. I have misunderstood you before.
After I leave, you must help me take good care of Amos. He is a very affectionate person, but he
always puts on a face as if he doesn't care. That is not good. In this world, you are the only person who
could persuade him!"
Eudora nodded, "Yes! I will!"
"That's good!" The Old Master murmured, "That's good."
There was a long silence after that. Eudora thought that he had finished speaking, and so she asked,
"Old Master? Is there anything else? Otherwise, I'll take my leave now."
However, at this moment, the Old Master suddenly uttered, "Wait a minute!"
Eudora looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Why aren't you referring to me as your Dad? Neither of you is willing to address me as so..."
At this point, his face seemed to be filled with loneliness. Eudora's nose twitched, and she immediately
opened her mouth and said, "It's not that. I'm just not used to it."
"Could you please give it a try then?"
Eudora nodded, "Dad..."
"Hah!" The Old Master laughed again, "I have put something in the safe of the bank! When I leave,
could you please tell Bethany about it and let her have a look at it?"
Eudora was stunned, "Are you still not going to express your feelings personally? To be honest, I could
see that you have feelings for her..."
The Old Master seemed a little embarrassed, "I'm old. I don't want to express myself anymore. I've left
a lot of things in the safe. She knows the password. You just need to help me convey this message to
her."
Eudora sighed, "Okay!"
"Please ask Bethany to come in then!"
Eudora sniffed and left. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
She was never good at dealing with such situations, especially when accompanying a person through
their dying moments. Eudora wiped the corners of her eyes and called for Bethany Hamilton, "Dad is
asking for you."
Eudora addressed him as her Dad instead of the Old Master...
Bethany took a deep look at Eudora. She then turned around and went in.
The Old Master had sat up on the bed. Unlike the way he was lying there just now, he looked a little bit
more like the strong man he was before he fell
As soon as the door opened, he smiled and waved at Bethany.
"Bethany."
Bethany hurried over, "You should lie down and rest!"
"No!" The Old Master smiled and said, "I just want to talk to you. Do you remember what I said to you
when we got married?"
Bethany paused for a moment and then shook her head, "It's been a long time. I don't remember."
"I still remember everything like it was yesterday!" The Old Master said, "At that time, I told you that we
only got married because our parents had arranged for it, so we didn't need to have any feelings for
each other. I also said that we would live our own lives in the future and not disturb each other."
Bethany pursed her lips, "Are you still blaming me for stopping you from enjoying your love life after so
many years?" The Old Master shook his head, "Love life? I'm just blaming myself. I didn't see the
people around me clearly and ran out of time to enjoy my life. I thought that I could spend some time
with you after making peace with Amos. But now... I don't have much time left..."
The Old Master's breathing became heavier. Bethany wanted to catch him, but she noticed his ECG
monitor slowly changing.
In the ward, Bethany's voice became louder. Amos, Eudora, and others felt a chill in their hearts and
rushed in hurriedly.
Immediately, they heard a sharp sound. The Old Master's EGG flatlined and a screeching sound rang
from the monitor.
The doctor rushed into the ward and began to resuscitate him, but they failed to rescue him in the end.
Bethany cried sadly. Eudora remembered the Old Master's last words. He had asked her to take good
care of Bethany and Amos.
Amos stood still in front of the bed, not crying or making any noise. He was always so calm and scary
in a way.
If it weren't for Juju, whom he was holding in his arms, suddenly shouted, "Daddy, you're hurting me
with your grip!"
Eudora would have thought that he didn't feel anything at all.
After pulling Juju away from Amos hurriedly, Eudora said, "Amos, don't be sad. People will not come
back to life after they die..." Amos suddenly snorted and said, "I'm not sad. Why should I be sad? He
should have accompanied my mother a long time ago..."
Since they were in a resort, after that, they had to discuss ways to send the Old Master back.
Bethany fell ill because of this incident, and the responsibility fell on Amos. He had not been sleeping
well since the Old Master's death. After dealing with the Old Master's funeral, he began to deal with the
company's affairs. He almost turned himself into a robot.
Eudora noticed his strange behavior. However, she could only support him silently so that he would not
be so sad.
It was not easy to arrange for the Old Master to go back. Eudora was ready to help to pack up the Old
Master's luggage. As soon as she opened the door, she saw that Amos was already inside.
