Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy
Chapter 837

There was dead silence in the office. Neither of the two brothers spoke. The atmosphere was filled with sorrow.

"When did you know? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Joshua lowered his arm, raised his head and looked at his brother, and spoke with a tone of grievance.

"I only found out not too long ago. Before this, I would ask the doctor about grandpa's condition every day, but the doctor also gave me the same answer, always telling me that grandpa's condition is good." Edwards's expression was filled with sorrow, as he answered with a stiff voice.

"This quack, he lied to us like that, Isn't he afraid that I'll smash his signboard? Whom he thinks we are? How dare him lie to us about grandfather's illness." Joshua scolded angrily.

"Scolding him is useless. It was all agreed upon by grandpa and grandma!" However, Edwards was still able to calmly accept the truth.

"Grandpa is really stubborn. He's so sick, yet he doesn't let us know. He's actually trying to make us worry about him, isn't he?" Joshua vented his anger on the old man again.

"Grandfather just doesn't want us to grieve for him. I believe that every elder is willing to understand this matter." Edwards explained softly.

Joshua suddenly realized that there was no one left to scold, and he could only depress himself. He looked at Edwards blankly: "Then what can we do now? Brother, tell me!"

Edwards looked at him fixedly, and then, he sighed: "At least, while Grandfather is still here, don't do anything that will anger him."

"What do we do to make him not angry? Don't tell me that we have to make John Wayne stay away from prison." Joshua's mind was in a mess, he could not even grasp his center of gravity, he could only feel anger in his heart, and wanted to vent it out.

"I have already decided to get engaged to Lily, and have already asked Larry to help me prepare for this matter. In three days, we will finish the betrothal ceremony and get married at the end of the month!" Edwards said out his decision.

"Engaged in three days? Is there time to be prepared in such a hurry?" When Joshua heard about this, his expression was blank for a moment. Then, he frowned as he felt that he didn't have enough time. "Enough, I'll try my best to make them prepare a bit more extravagantly in a limited amount of time. Because the decision is too hasty, I can accept everything that is imperfect. I just want to make grandpa happy and let him feel at ease!" Answered in a low voice, he, who was originally being extremely fastidious, no longer needed to think about the details anymore. He only wanted this result: engagement, marriage, one step at a time.

"Alright, brother. Coincidentally, I have nothing to do these past few days. I'll help you prepare the engagement banquet as well." Joshua actually hoped that his brother's engagement ceremony would be a bit grander, as Lily was worthy of giving her best memories.

On Edwards's handsome face, there was finally a hint of a smile, and he said gently: "I won't trouble you. I've already asked Larry to do this, his abilities are not bad, I believe I will be satisfied!"

"But I want to help too!" After Joshua finished speaking, he suddenly raised his gaze, met Edwards's uncertain eyes, and immediately explained anxiously: "Brother, don't misunderstand, I want to help. It's not because I still have any feelings towards Lily, it's just that I purely want to help make the engagement ceremony a little better!"

Seeing that he was so anxious that his face was swollen, Edwards couldn't help but laugh. "I know, you don't need to explain to me anymore. I can see for a long time that your feelings for Elizabeth Jones are very different

"She? I don't want to talk about her now! " Joshua's expression flashed with anger. Evidently, Elizabeth's deception had already completely hurt his heart.

Edwards said in a warm voice, "Don't hate her. She also has her own bitterness, and during that recording just now, you could tell that she was only thinking about family relationships and didn't help April Jones to escape for her sin."

"I don't care what she wanted to do, she lied to me!" Joshua gnashed his teeth.

"Don't you hate her so much but you still fought for her last night?" Edwards felt that his little brother was sometimes very childish and said that he didn't like her, but in his heart, he had already treated her like a treasure.

"That's because... I don't like others to touch my stuff, even if it's something I don't want! " Joshua found an extremely far-fetched reason.

"Alright, I won't try to persuade you otherwise. This is your relationship; you decide it yourself!" Edwards decided not to bring it up anymore.

"Brother, are we really not going to publicize this matter before grandpa leaves? What if John Wayne went overboard? Maybe he has even more despicable methods waiting for you. This time when he comes out, he probably wants your position. So, you have to be careful of him!" The more Joshua thought about it, the more unwilling he became. There was always a bad breath in his heart. He can't feel happy without vomiting

"Of course, I've always been on guard against him. Don't worry, I won't let my guard down!" Edwards's cold eyes flashed with a trace of hostility; his large palm clenched into a fist.

"Brother, how much time do you think your grandfather has left? Was it a year?" Joshua suddenly looked like a frightened child, unease flashing across his eyes.

"I hope it's a year, but the situation isn't looking good. Maybe a few months, maybe ..." Edwards suddenly became silent, he did not want to continue anymore.

Joshua's body froze, his expression became uneasy: "Will it really be that fast? If John Wayne knew about this, would he stop? Did he not feel that grandfather's severe illness all those years ago was caused by him? Would he feel a little guilty? Does he have a conscience?"

Edwards sneered, and ridiculed: "Do you still expect that someone who can even kill his brother to have any conscience? He has always resented grandfather's bias in his heart. If he were to find out about this news, he would probably have to fight over the shares in his grandfather's hands at the first possible moment!"

Joshua's face changed. That's right, he was dreaming that John Wayne would turn back and see the shore.

"Brother, then even more so, don't let him know about grandpa's situation. When he's ruthless, he really doesn't care about grandpa's life!" Joshua said angrily.

"He will be here tonight. Do you want to meet him?" Edwards sneered.

Joshua shook his head: "I don't want to see him, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist killing him!"

"You have to calm down! He is a monster, and you're not! You won't bite people recklessly!" Edwards immediately taught his younger brother.

Of course, it was impossible for Joshua to actually kill someone, he just felt that he had a rather bad temper. After seeing John Wayne, he could not stay calm, and knew that if he did anything unpleasant, it would probably irritate his grandfather's illness.

"Alright, I'll do my best to control my temper. Bro, take the recording. I'll be leaving first!" After Joshua finished speaking, he turned around and left. Only, he no longer felt the excitement he felt when he discovered something new.
