Substitutee Marriage: Fallingg For My Ugly Wifee
Chapter 1032

“What is it?”

“Visit the hospital. Grandmother is here too.”

Subsequently, Marcus arrived at the hospital, striding into Jonah’s ward with a demeanor untouched by warmth.

Lying on the bed, Jonah, tethered by tubes, directed a venomous glare at Marcus, seething with the desire to rend him asunder.

“Mother, seize the moment. Your loving grandson devised my assassination.”

Claudia’s grip on her crutch tightened, striking the floor resoundingly.

“Unless you’ve got evidence, refrain from such allegations.”

Grudgingly, Jonah clamped his lips shut.

“Marcus, articulate your stance.”

Marcus stood in silence, a chill in his gaze.

“Do you perceive it now? He’s silent. Mother, how could a heartless individual inherit Thomas Group? Power has veiled his sensibilities, compelling him to eliminate the family and appropriate the empire for himself.” Jonah’s words crescendoed, each syllable laying bare his intrinsic nature.

The prognosis of lifelong bedridden paralysis, as proclaimed by the doctor, was a fate worse than immediate demise.

Bruce, standing aside, lowered his icy eyes, abstaining from utterance.

A harsh cough escaped Claudia’s lips; her directive was crystalline.

“Marcus, speak.”

In a sudden turn, Jonah erupted into laughter.

“Even now, you advocate for your unfilial grandson. You prioritize your grandson’s wellbeing. Admirable, mother. In my entire existence, I’ve endeavored to be a dutiful son, refraining from money pursuit, yet I’ve been met with such injustice. I conjecture your reaction would remain lukewarm if I were to perish.”

Claudia’s grip on the crutch tightened perceptibly, an enigmatic expression flickering across her gaze.

Her eyes swept the room, quelling Jonah’s outburst. Nonetheless, traces of disappointment lingered in his eyes.

“Marcus, adjourn to the old residence and kneel. You shall rise only by my decree.”

Departing the ward, Marcus bore the weight of indifference in his gaze.

Unappeased, Jonah persisted in his acerbic taunts.

“Mother, your blatant bias is glaring. He attempted to murder a man over fifty, and your retribution is merely a momentary kneel?”

Claudia met Jonah’s acrimony with an unyielding gaze.
