Chapter 366 Not An Accident
Hearing what Eric said, Angela bit her lower lip and forced her tears back. As her son, he had already considered how to deal with the funeral, but as an elder, she was still immersed in sadness, which made her feel inferior to him.
At the same time, she admired her son. In the face of such a situation, he could still be calm. Such a character was indeed a person of great success.
How many people could not panic in the face of the sudden loss of their loved ones?
Thinking of this, Angela subconsciously looked at Richard. He seemed to be unable to accept the fact in front of him, and he was still in a dull state.
"Richard." Angela couldn't help calling him.
However, it seemed that he didn't hear what she said. He didn't respond at all, and his eyes were fixed on the surgery trolley dully.
A touch of bitterness rose in Angela's heart. She had never seen him like this. She couldn't help but walk up to him and grab his arm. "Richard..."
Hearing the voice, Richard finally had a slight reaction, as if he was fixed and moved, without any movement of his body. He mechanically turned his head to look at Angela, and his eyes were dull.
Seeing him like this, Angela's heart ached and her eyes turned red again. "Richard, cheer up. Now Dad… He has gone. What we need to do now is to cheer up and do the funeral for him."
Hearing Angela's words, Richard's eyes turned red and tears fell down all of a sudden. It was said that men didn't easily shed tears, but at this moment, his tears were like beads with broken threads, constantly falling, and he was about to cry out.
It was the first time that Angela saw him crying. She couldn't help but hold him in his arms. "No one wants such a thing to happen, but it happened. We have to face it."
"Okay." It was hard for him to utter the word. It came out of his choked throat with a strong sense of sadness.
He bent down and leaned his head on Angela's shoulder. He held her tightly, but his body was trembling.
Seeing his parents like this, Eric took a deep breath and concealed the sadness in his heart. The sudden death of his grandfather was a great blow to everyone in the Gu family.
However, this emergency was too weird.
Eric felt that it was not because he thought too much, but because everything was really abnormal. Why didn't grandpa do such a sudden thing when he and his parents were here a few days ago? He didn't get sick, but today he and his parents went to see her uncle. They just had lunch and didn't finish it. Suddenly he received a call, saying that something happened to his grandpa.
Plus what the doctor said just now, he didn't believe it was an accident!
At this moment, Simon had already stopped wailing, and so did Frank. The two of them stood in front of the shopping cart, looking like idiots.
Eric glanced at them. When he left this morning, Simon just came back from outside, which meant that they were at home at that time. But just now, Jarvis said that he had called people to show up, which meant that they hadn't found grandpa's sudden attack before.
It seemed that it had nothing to do with them. But if so, who irritated grandpa?
Unless there was an outsider at home, or someone called him and said something he shouldn't say.
Shaking his head slightly, Eric shook off these thoughts in his mind. Now the most important thing was to send his grandfather's corpse to the morgue, and then when everyone was preparing for his funeral, he had to hurry up to find out the real reason for his grandfather's death.
And these were still his conjectures, and it was impossible to tell anyone. Only after finding evidence could they be exposed to the public.
Not long after, Jarvis returned after going through the formalities. Behind him were two fully armed male doctors in white coats, masks and gloves.
Jarvis handed the documents to Eric and said, "Everything is ready."
"Okay." Eric nodded and put away the documents.
"If you are ready, we will send the dead to the morgue." One of the male doctors said in a cold voice, as if sending the dead to a morgue was a common thing for them. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
"Wait a minute." Eric glanced at them, and then turned to look at Richard and Angela, "Father, mother, come and see grandpa again. He will be sent to the morgue after that."
After saying that, Eric walked to the cart first and looked down at Wayne, who was quietly closing his eyes. He had been so angry that he had survived many times without any danger, but this time he did not make it through. After all, he was lack of people around him, so failed to send him to the hospital in time.
Thinking of this, Eric felt a little guilty. If they hired more servants, such a situation might not have happened.
Hearing this, Richard raised his head from Angela's arms, wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, and took her hand to the shopping cart.
Simon and Frank were standing in front of the shopping cart, so they didn't move at all.
For a moment, the corridor fell into silence again. At the same time, the surroundings were surrounded by sadness and silence. Even Jarvis, who was standing beside them, felt this kind of atmosphere, which made him feel deeply sorry.
For him, Wayne was not only his patient, but also his teacher. Although the two of them didn't talk much in daily life, most of the time, he taught him a lot of things that he didn't understand in private.
He had been a family doctor for more than 10 years and had deep feelings for the Gu family.
Eric unconsciously clenched his fists, but there was no emotion on his face except sadness. He hid it well.
The more Richard looked at it, the redder his eyes became. But he tried his best to hold back his tears and unconsciously tightened his grip on Angela's hand.
Angela felt a little pain in her hand, so she turned to look at Richard with red eyes. Bearing the sour feeling in her nose, she reached out and patted his hand to comfort him.
Five minutes later, the male doctor who spoke earlier said, "Are you ready? We are going to send the dead to the morgue."
Eric turned to look at him and nodded. Then he bent over and pulled the white cloth on Wayne's body to cover his face again.
After that, he stepped back and made way for them.
At the same time, Simon and Frank also took a few steps back, Richard and Angela didn't get in the way, so they stood still.
Seeing this, the two male doctors walked up, one on the other side, pushing the trolley to the morgue.
Seeing them walking farther and farther away, as if he could not accept it, Eric immediately followed them, and then quietly followed the two doctors, as if silently sending his grandfather through this process.
At the same time, Richard let go of Angela's hand and followed her, just like Eric, staring at the cart.
Angela sniffed and followed him.
Simon and Frank looked at each other and followed him.
The group of people just followed quietly, without saying anything. They took the elevator downstairs and walked a long way to the other building. Then they went into the elevator to the five floor. At last, they took two turns and finally arrived at the passage where the morgue was located.
Except for them, no one was seen in this passage, not even the staff. It seemed particularly cold, just like this was the atmosphere of the mortuary, with a sense of seclusion, people can't help but want to shiver.
But to them, it seemed that they didn't feel it at all. They followed the two doctors all the way to the door of the morgue.
The two doctors stopped, and one of them turned to them. "You can only sent here. There is a rule in the morgue that no one is allowed to enter."
Everyone stopped and looked at the cart.
"I want to see my father again."
The two doctors looked at each other and then glanced at Richard. Their hearts softened. Then the doctor who had just spoken lifted the white cloth and said, "Let's have a look again."
Richard hurried forward and lived on the cold handrail of the cart. His eyes were full of grief, his nose was sore, his throat was blocked and his eyes were red. At this moment, he couldn't help but shed tears.
Seeing this, Eric turned his head slightly. He didn't want to see his father. He was afraid that he couldn't help crying.
Angela couldn't help but shed tears at the same time. She lowered her head and wiped her tears.
Simon and Frank didn't go forward, standing aside with red eyes.
Blue veins appeared on the back of his hand which was holding the handrail tightly. It could be seen how much Richard had endured the silent cry.
Finally, Angela couldn't bear it anymore. She walked to him, put her hand on the back of his hand and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't bear it. Cry if you want to. No one will say anything to you. You will feel better if you cry."
Richard felt his throat hurt, but he didn't cry. Instead, he covered the white cloth again and said to the two doctors, "Push it in."
The two doctors glanced at him, opened the door of the morgue, pushed the trolley into it, and then closed the door again.
At the moment when the door was closed, Richard's body became weak and he was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, he was held by Angela. At the same time, she screamed, "Richard!"
Seeing this, Eric immediately walked over and held his other arm, "Dad, are you okay?"
Being supported to stand firm, Richard's face was pale. He shook his head helplessly to show that he was fine.
