"I'm ready anytime!" Harry replied casually while looking at Nicole who was so happy to have so much delicious food on the table.
Chuck took a scalpel and angrily stabbed it into the body of a dummy. He was imagining that the dummy was the hateful Harry.
"Harry, wait to see how I steal Lola from you! Oh, you'll see!" Damn Harry! He didn't deserve to be his brother! He was such a cunning and cruel man!
Now his grandfather rushed to the hospital and beat him with his crutch. When his grandfather found out that he didn't have the intention to get married, he almost destroyed his laboratory!
Lola was dumbfounded. She stopped eating and thought why would they quarrel about her? Was it because Harry was taking a revenge on Chuck for cheating him about Lola's fake amnesia before?
"Sorry, it may disappoint you. My wife now doesn't have time and energy to cheat on me." Harry picked a piece of the tasty pork and put it into Lola's bowl.
... Hearing this, Lola paused as she was about to put the meat into her mouth.
She stared at Harry in disgust. She immediately put down her chopsticks and walked directly to him. She was going to take his cellphone away.
But before Lola reached for the cellphone, Harry had already picked it up from the table. He said to Chuck, "Hey, Chuck, if you still want to play, I will oblige with you until the very end. I want to see you so embarrassed and ashamed." Chuck was his brother. Definitely, he would join him in playing a game.
In the hospital, the dummy in front of Chuck was scarred everywhere by the scalpel. It was almost beyond recognition.
Looking at the dummy, Chuck breathed a sigh of relief. He felt satisfied because it was as if he had seen Harry become like this.
But there were some implied tones in Harry's words. This made Chuck very uncomfortable. His face turned pale in anxiety.
Lola sneaked behind Harry and tried to grab the cellphone from his hand. "I want to speak to Chuck! Give me the phone!" She shouted.
Hearing Lola's frantic voice, Chuck held back the depressed feelings in his heart and spoke to the phone in a provocative tone, "Lola, don't be with Harry, You and me could..." He had intended to say they could run away to a secret place. But the phone was suddenly hung up.
...
Harry hung up the phone directly in front of Lola's face and then turned it off.
Lola was frustrated. She went back to her seat and continued eating her meal.
"Mommy, you are not happy now, right?" Nicole got closer to Lola while chewing the eggplant in her mouth. She looked very concerned and worried.
Nicole frowned and talked to her father," Daddy, Mommy is unhappy. Do something to make her happy." Nicole thought it was daddy who made mommy upset. Therefore, he should be the one to make amends.
"Okay, Nicole. Let's finish eating dinner first. I will make your mommy happy later." Harry gently looked at Nicole and then mixed the rice in his bowl.
Lola was still very angry. She didn't realize the intention behind Harry's words. She was still thinking about going back to A Country tomorrow. She was not willing to stay here with him. Not in this situation...
After dinner, Harry held Nicole with one hand, and Lola with his other hand. She was still obviously reluctant to hold hands with him. They walked towards the gates of the mansion.
The three of them walked under the dim lights of the manor. Nicole was very happy. She was running up and down the broad road ahead like a happy bird.
But Lola and Harry were pulling and pushing each other every now and then behind.
"How was your grandpa?" Lola asked. She was so helpless. She could not get rid of the annoying Harry.
Harry lifted her hand and gently planted a kiss on it. He replied, "He's also your grandpa." What did that mean?
That was not the point. "Hey, answer my question! I'm so worried about him."
Nicole ran to the place where the ligers were caged. Harry and Lola followed closely behind her.
"He's getting better. He can walk and eat by himself now." With the help of a professional healthcare personnel, Harry's grandfather's situation was stable now. He was slowly getting back to his normal shape.
Lola had planned to go back to A Country tomorrow. But she changed her mind and decided to visit Harry's grandfather first. "Tomorrow is Saturday. I will take Nicole to visit him tomorrow. You don't have to go with us. Just take care of your business."
Harry smiled but said nothing about it.
