Chapter202
At this time, Michael’s car arrived.
He saw his wife walking towards Julio with a gentle smile on
her face.
Before, Mr. McConnell had him check on the Mendez family.
Did Mr. McConnell know?
What should we do? Should we tell Mr. McConnell about the
situation today?
Bethany had her hands full and couldn’t speak.
However, Julio also knew what she wanted to say.
“Are you asking me how I got here?”
Bethany nodded.
“I went to visit my grandfather’s grave and also stopped by to
see your grandmother. I used to eat a lot of meals cooked by
your grandmother when I was a child.”
Actually, the main purpose was to accompany Bethany.
Chapter202
He thought today was Thanksgiving Day, so Bethany should
have come back to visit her grandma and mom’s graves.
Julio took all her offerings from Bethany’s hands, “Let’s go
together.”
Julio put everything in the trunk and opened the car door for
Bethany.
After getting on the car, Bethany shared with him about her
morning pronunciation practice.
It’s still a bit challenging, can’t even smoothly finish the simplest
single vowel.
“Don’t worry, you haven’t started treatment yet, but the test
results are out. The reason you can suddenly speak is because your nervous system has improved a lot compared to before. It
will be easier for you to recover than others. You need to have a
minimally invasive surgery first to assist in your recovery!”
This news gave Bethany more hope.
After many years, her condition miraculously improved. So, the
chance for her to speak will be much greater than before.
“Thank you.”
Chapter200
Bethany bent her thumb.
She didn’t say much more, otherwise Julio would have to watch
her sign language and couldn’t focus on driving.
Michael was driving behind Julio’s car, following it all the way
to the cemetery.
Julio and Bethany got off the car together to worship.
Michael thought about it and decided not to tell Mr. McConnell. Mr. McConnell asked him to pick up his wife, so he just had to pick her up and that’s it. Other things were none of his business.
Otherwise, if Mrs. goes to worship with other men, Mr.
McConnell will feel like he’s wearing a green hat on his head. If
he gets angry, he will also feel pressure at work.
He didn’t want to make himself unhappy.
Julio and Bethany came out after worshiping, Michael got off
the car and went straight to Bethany.
“Mrs., Mr. McConnell asked me to pick you up and bring you
back to Rivermond as soon as possible.””
Bethany unconsciously gestured, “Tell him I’m not going back.”
Michael frowned, “Miss, I can’t understand sign language.”
Chapter202
Julio immediately translated, “She told you to tell Mr.
McConnell that she’s not coming back.”
After saying that, Julio put his arm around Bethany’s shoulder
and walked towards his car.
He opened the car door.
Michael caught up and said urgently, “Miss, Mr. McConnell told
me I had to take you back.”
Bethany didn’t want to put Michael on the spot, so she took out
her phone and sent a message to Terrence.
“I didn’t go back to Rivermond today.”
Bethany showed Michael a text message on her phone, saying
she had already told Terrence. Even if Terrence causes trouble,
he can’t blame Michael.
So, Michael didn’t have to worry about Terrence holding him
accountable.
Terrence rushed back last night, went to the hospital to see
Krista, and then returned home. It was already past three in the
morning, but he still got up early to wait for Bethany to come back, so they could go to the McConnell’s manor together.
Chapter202
Bethany suddenly stopped messaging, Terrence’s face turned
cold.
Now they are two hours‘ drive apart, she’s not coming back, and
he can’t do anything about it.
He had to take Emery back to the McConnell’s manor.
Terrence himself also paid attention to ancestor worship
because of the influence of his family.
Right now, everyone from the McConnell family was there, just
waiting for Terrence’s family to arrive before we could set off.
However, this time it was only Terrence and Emery.
Randy’s forehead was so wrinkled that all the lines on his face
were very noticeable.
“What about Bethany?”
Everyone was watching too.
Such an important holiday, Bethany didn’t even come back.
Terrence got angry and said, “I’m going back home.”
Evangeline angrily said, “Doesn’t she know we’re supposed to
pay respects to our ancestors today?”
Chapter202
“Yeah, Terrence, she married into the McConnell family, so she’s
one of them now. How could she not attend the Thanksgiving
Day ancestor worship?”
Terrence’s father Jaydon was also not happy.
Terrence glanced around and said coldly, “Where’s Kaylie?”
Kimora quickly said, “My mom went back to her parents‘
house.”
Jaydon immediately grabbed Kimora and said, “Mind your own
business.””
