Those men are typical of the small fishing village, not doing their jobs, stealing chickens and dogs, has been in S City before, these two days do not know where to hear the news, Grace's family all dead, and left her a large sum of money.
Immediately, they turned their attention to her.
A few people rummaged around the tiny house and finally found the large sum of cash.
The man at the head said, "You say you a fool, on the street to ask for food on the line, to leave you so much money people, the brain is really abnormal right."
After the words, several people laughed together.
Grace huddled in the corner, clutching her watch in her arms, watching them without saying a word.
The man's eyes fell on her watch, his eyes narrowed and he stepped forward to take it, but Grace wouldn't give it to him: "This is what my brother left me, you're not allowed to rob it!"
The man obviously did not take her words to heart and greeted his companions around him, "Pull her away from me, I want to see how much this watch is worth today."
Two men men went left and right to yank Grace and try to snatch the watch away.
That's when Grandma Swift heard the commotion and came running over: "What are you doing, what are you doing!"
The man at the head of the group said, "Old woman, you have no business here, don't give me less trouble."
Grandma Swift knew him and shouted, "Zac, if you don't let go of her, believe me, I'll tell your parents!"
Zac laughed: "Go ahead and say it, am I afraid of them?"
"You ......"
Grandma Swift tried to go up to help Grace, but was thrown to the ground by a man on the sidelines.
Zac looked back at Grace, who was still struggling, and was already getting a little impatient: "Can't you even get a fool right."
"Boss, this fool is very strong, we also ......"
"Get out of the way, I'll do it."
Zac said, then reached out to break Grace's hand, which did not know that she directly lowered her head and bit heavily on the back of his hand.
Zac was unprepared and screamed out in pain.
Grace also took advantage of this opportunity and rushed out.
Zac spat and cursed, "Fuck, get after me!"
But just as a few of them reached the door, they were blocked by a figure.
A few people took a look at his dress and knew that he was not a person to be messed with, and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Zac came out clutching his still bleeding hand and looked at the person in his way with more anger: "Who are you again?"
Nathan spoke with an expressionless face, "I'm your grandfather."
Zac's face changed: "Fuck, give me a go!"
Nathan looked cold and threw a punch at the man who rushed up.
But in two minutes' time, all those men were on the ground, wailing in pain.
Nathan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and pulled the stunned Grandma Swift up: "I've called the police, they'll be here in a minute, please take a statement."
Grandma Swift nodded her head in a hurry.
Nathan turned his head and there was no Grace around.
It didn't take long for the police to arrive.
At first Zac was full of disdain, especially after seeing that the leader of the team is usually he gave a lot of benefits, at any time called brother, the more arrogant.
Which, before he could get to Nathan, he was handcuffed.
"What are you doing, I was the one who was beaten, you should have arrested him ......"
When Zac's group comes out and can't find him and Grace, it's inevitable that they won't retaliate.
He took this trip, the leaders of the police department know what is going on, the people under him even if they have more courage, received Zac more benefits, but also dare not put him out.
After leaving the police station, Nathan went back to see Grandma Swift at the hospital, got her an escort, paid her full medical bills again, and told her he would take Grace to City N so she wouldn't have to worry anymore.
Meanwhile, Nathan left Grandma Swift his number again and told her to call him if she needed anything.
Grandma Swift was overwhelmed with emotion: "You are all good people, Grace is lucky to have met you in her life."
Nathan nodded slightly, "That's what I'm supposed to do."
The next day, Grace was waiting at the door early in the morning, leaning against the wall, but she had few things with her, and most of them were Justin's.
As soon as she saw Nathan, she immediately stood up.
Nathan said, "Have you finished taking everything."
Grace nods her head.
Nathan said, "Let's go."
Grace is the first time to fly, the whole process, scared and nervous, but just obediently hold their things without making a sound, and so the plane rose into the air, she looked at the clouds outside, eyes full of curiosity and fresh, especially when you see a bird flying in the distance, but also amazed open mouth.
Nathan smiled at this, put on the blindfold and closed his eyes to rest.
Grace is not idle all the way, a moment to look out the window, a moment to eat and drink some snacks and drinks sent over by the flight attendants.
A few hours later, the plane landed at City N Airport.
Nathan had reported this to Clarence last night, and Clarence told him to take Grace directly to the old Conrad Family home.
Where Justin used to live.
