Atwood stared at George, “Why are you so insistent? Why do I feel that you're trying to scheme against Stanford?”
“You don't arbitrate the righteous one by your petty-minded!” George's anger immediately exploded, and he seriously suspected that Stanford so badly disliked them, all because of Atwood.
What Atwood had said was all aimed at George and his parents.
George wanted to make it up with Stanford, but Atwood treated it as a scheme.
“I'm not as deep as you are,” George snorted.
Atwood shouted at the security guard.
George grabbed Atwood by his wrist, “Are you alright? Why are you always calling security?”
“Please get away from here!” Atwood looked at him coldly and did not move, “You better let go of me, or I'll sue you for intentional assault.”
George was speechless.
Stanford said in a deep voice, “Enough,” he raised his head to look at George, “Go home and tell your parents that I have nothing to say with them.”
“No,” George let go of Atwood, crouched in front of Stanford, and said, “My mother knew that she was wrong. I knew that she did not treat you well at all in the past. But everyone will do something wrong. Can't people be forgiven for being wrong?”
His words inexplicably touched Stanford's heart. Are people who made mistakes not deserving to be forgiven?
He thought of the mistakes he had made.
Would Amanda be like him, refuse to forgive, or even refuse to give him a chance to do penance?
“Give us a chance to be good as a family, can't we?” George saw that Stanford began to waver, and he continued to say.
“As long as you go home with me today, I promise, I'll never appear in front of you again in the future if you don't like it,” George said sincerely.
Stanford looked at him for two seconds and said, “Alright.”
Atwood looked at Stanford incredulously, “Mr. James...”
Stanford raised his hand, “Atwood, stop saying anything. You can go home first.”
Stanford wanted to give himself a chance.
George smiled happily, “Thank you. I'll help you to get into the car.”
Atwood helped to set up a pedal between the ground and the car so that George could wheel the wheelchair into the car.
“Mr. James, feel free to contact me if anything happens.”
Stanford nodded.
George closed the car door and growled in a low voice at Atwood, “Don't think you're the only kind person in the world. Although Stanford and I are not born of the same mother, we have the same father. How would I harm him?”
Atwood ignored him, turned around, and left.
George got into the car.
He fastened his seatbelt, started the car, and said, “My mother knew she was wrong. I came here today because she begged me to come to you, and she wants to make it up with you and apologize to you for what happened in the past.”
Stanford did not show any expression. He was no longer taking the previous affairs to heart. Stanford did not want to have any contact with them. It might be because he had no good memories when they spent time together in the past.
All his memories were unfortunate.
George assured him with conviction, “Please believe me this time. We sincerely want to make it up with you.”
George was reluctant to go to Stanford at first, but Alyssa begged him and said she sincerely wanted to apologize to Stanford. She wanted George to take Stanford home.
“My mom went out to get groceries in the morning and said she wanted to cook for you herself,” George did not care whether Stanford was willing to listen or not, and he continued his words.
Stanford did not respond to him, nor did he believe Alyssa would change her character to be kind.
Alyssa did not get any benefit last time at the hospital. The reason Alyssa showed him goodwill this time was probably still something that wanted George to work at his company.
Stanford had been living together with Alyssa under the same roof for so many years. He knew better her character and what kind of person she was than her son, George.
