Chapter 208
Jonathan was relieved to see that Master Quigley knew what was going on. Jonathan then told Joseph that Gwen bullied Anna several times. Joseph was angry when hearing what Jonathan said and snorted coldly, “Hmph!” Jonathan immediately comforted Joseph, “Master Quigley, calm down.”
Joseph was outraged and said, “What a bastard. Gwen’s grandfather, Samuel, was not a good person. He bullied the good and pleased the evil. I didn’t expect that after so many generations, the members of the Raven family are still bastards. Some people throw themselves at Anna even though Anna doesn’t like them. Those people will keep annoying Anna until they receive Anna’s reactions. Well, if Gwen wants Anna to be her teacher, bring it on then.
“I saw Gwen bully Anna. Thus, I’m going to announce that Anna is my student when I announce the result of tomorrow’s Medical Technology competition. I want Gwen to know what she did was humiliating herself. “Teaching Gwen a lesson is just an unexpected part of my journey. I participate in this conference because I want to go to Jadeborough and support Anna.
“Unexpectedly, I saw Gwen bully Anna more than once. She always tries to pick a fight with Anna. Therefore, I don’t think I will be way out of line tomorrow. A gloating smile appeared on Jonathan’s face. He thumbed up and said, “What an excellent plan, Master Quigley! Gwen will be embarrassed and regret what she has done. The result must be satisfying!”
Joseph looked at Jonathan proudly with his hands behind his back. Seeing that many people were rushing over, Joseph said to Jonathan, “Focus on your patient. Now I’m going back to the hotel to rest. It’s too noisy here with so many people talking and yelling.” “I’ll see you out,” said Jonathan.
“No need. Old Dariel has sent two of his students to take care of me. Focus on the competition, and don’t embarrass me.” “I will do my best, Master Quigley!” “By the way, keep an eye on Anna. Don’t let others bully her again.” “I will.” Joseph then walked out of the conference with his hands behind his back. The people from the aristocratic families wanted to surround Joseph again.
Joseph put his hands behind his back and said, “Everyone, thank you for your enthusiasm for an old person like me. Now I’m old and not as energetic as before. Just a while later, I’m already tired. Excuse me, I would like to go to the hotel and rest.” People from the Blake and Jones family wanted to invite Joseph to a meal. Joseph refused them and explained, “Sorry, I don’t have time for a meal with you. I haven’t seen my disciple for many years. I want to do some catching up with them.”
“Oh, okay. We understand it. Take care, Mr. Quigley. Have a good rest. What about we take you a ride?” Joseph replied, “No, thanks. I’ve already ordered a car.” Then Joseph and Dariel’s two students left the conference. Gwen saw that Joseph went back to the hotel to rest. She thought, “Here’s your chance.”
Then Gwen immediately asked Leo to leave and went after Joseph. In the Parks residence. Old Mr. Parks was already lying down. Annalise took care of Old Mr. Parks. She was observing Old Mr. Parks while writing the prescription. Julian took a shower and changed into clean clothes. Abigail and the others also returned.
Layla was afraid she would say the truth. Thus, she seldom talked. After all, Tony and her son did not know. about that. Layla glared at Abigail, thinking, “Abigail is useless. She only had one job.” Abigail did not dare to say a word, either. Alexander had told her before that he would kill her if she dared to do anything to Samuel.
Abigail could only communicate with Layla with eye contact. Abigail transferred the information through her eyes. “You shouldn’t blame me for the result. I already did anything I could. The poison was colorless and tasteless, and I had successfully made Samuel drink it. Unfortunately, plans could not keep up with changes.
“If Annalise and Jonathan hadn’t arrived so quickly and saved Samuel in time, Samuel would definitely died. If so, I bet Jonathan and even Joseph Quigley couldn’t save Samuel.” Layla glanced at Abigail again. That eye contact meant “You’re on your own.”
Tony noticed that no one was speaking. He also saw that Layla and Abigail looked at each other strangely. Tony was annoyed and said, “What’s going on, guys? Abigail, tell me the truth. Is it you?” Abigail said immediately, “Dad, it wasn’t me.” Tony asked again, “It really wasn’t you?” “It really isn’t,” Abigail insisted.
Alexander did not go to the conference today. He heard about the event that happened to Samuel. After knowing that Samuel was poisoned because he drank Abigail’s tea, Alexander sat on the sofa and stared at Abigail, focusing on the changes in her expression. “Was it you?” Tony looked at Layla again.
Tony felt that Samuel was too harsh on him. Sometimes, Tony would be angry at Samuel and even consider Samuel an unnecessary existence. However, Tony did not want Samuel to die.
Hearing Tony question her, Layla immediately threw a tantrum, shouting, “Tony Parks, what did you say?” Layla clutched her chest and said, “How many years have I been married to you? Huh? It’s been 20 years. Why did I have to wait until today if I wanted to kill him? Huh?
“We’ve been husband and wife for twenty years. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? “Tony Parks, you are an evil bastard with no conscience and no heart! “How much did I suffer?
“I used to be your mistress. I didn’t ask you for money or an announcement, and I gave birth to your son, Alexander. I could only marry you and finally become your legitimate wife when your first wife died.
“After getting married, I tried my best to be a filial daughter-in-law, a good wife who knew everything well, and a gentle mother. In the end, when something happened, you suspected me the first. “My heart is also made of flesh, not iron! “Don’t you think my heart will ache when you question me like this?”
Snot and tears covered Layla’s face. She cried sadly, “It’s been 20 years, Tony Parks. We’ve been married for 20 years, but people still view me as your mistress. For what do I suffer all this? Do I askContent rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
you to suffer so you can stab me in the heart?
“I’ve been comforting myself that it doesn’t matter what others say about me. It’s the happiest thing to see the family together. In the end, you suspect me? Haha…” Seeing Layla like this, Tony felt upset. He comforted her, “Layla, I didn’t doubt you. I just asked a question.” “I… I want a divorce!” Layla looked like she was very painful.
Tony frowned and sighed, saying, “Enough, don’t be silly. It’s already chaotic enough. I was so anxious at that time. Thus, I spoke without thinking. It won’t happen again. Have a good rest. I’ll go see dad.” Tony was relieved when he heard that it wasn’t Layla or Abigail to do that.
Alexander said, “Mom, have a good rest. He got up and followed Tony to visit Samuel. Julian had asked someone to extract the fingerprints on the cup and the poison in it. In addition, Julian’s hacker team had already retrieved the surveillance footage at the time of the incident. They were now analyzing the surveillance footage. “How’s your grandpa?” Tony asked when he saw Julian sitting in the living room with a cold expression. Julian ignored Tony and did not reply.
Julian’s attitude made Tony angry. Tony was filled with anger and wanted to pick a fight. However, thinking of his father’s current situation, Tony snorted and walked toward Samuel’s room. Annalise finished the prescription, and she was folding it. Alexander’s eyes flashed as he watched Annalise’s practiced movements. Alexander thought, “Some things are becoming more and more clear.”
