Chester immediately wanted to send Reggie away.
But Reggie couldn't just leave, the situation of the Marsh family was too bad right now, if he couldn't bring Ruby over, he was afraid that none of these people in the Marsh family would survive!
At that moment, he gritted his teeth, didn't move his feet, and said "Sorry" to Levi, and then simply blocked the doorway, raising his voice towards the inside and pleading.
"Miss Harold, please! Just be kind and help out the Marsh family! If you don't go, those people in the Marsh family will really die! Only you can save them ......"
Seeing him playing this stunt, Levi sank his face in displeasure.
"You're not leaving? Chester, drag him away!"
At that moment, the eyelashes of the old lady, who had been sleeping, suddenly moved and then lifted up, her cloudy eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.
Ruby, who had been staring at her, saw this and hurried over to her.
"Grandma, you're awake, how do you feel? Is there anything uncomfortable?"
When he heard her earnest enquiry, Levi turned around and walked over to the other side of the hospital bed, looking deeply at Cara.
"Grandma, you're finally awake, you've scared the hell out of me and Ruby."
The old lady reacted for a moment before her cloudy eyes finally came into focus, looking first at Levi and then at Ruby, struggling to raise a weak smile.
"Ruby, don’t be afraid, I am just tired and slept a little longer."
For some reason, Ruby, who had managed to remain barely calm and self-possessed even when Cara fainted, heard these words and her heart sank, her eyes almost welling up with tears.
Luckily, she was sensible and had great self-control, which prevented her from letting her emotions out.
Only, when she opened her mouth, her slightly raspy voice still revealed her emotions.
"Grandma, you scared me, next time don't be like that, no matter how much people go too far, you can't be so angry, leave any situation to me, I'll help you out, okay?"
Cara nodded somewhat feebly, "I know, you are good to me."
With that, her creased eyelids blinked and she suddenly asked, "Who was shouting outside just now? Is something wrong with the Marsh family?"
Not expecting her to hear it, Ruby hesitated and chose to keep it from her.
"No, nothing is wrong, it's just people passing by, it has nothing to do with us, you don't need to worry. What you need to do now is to recuperate well, when you get better and Olivia and Levi are almost recovered, we will go home."
However, Cara shook her head.
"You still want to hide it from me, although I am old, but not deaf and blind, just now I heard it that person has been telling you to save the Marsh family, is it Reggie?"
Always wise, the old lady guessed it at once.
Ruby pursed her lips and had to nod gently, "Well, it's him, but I've turned him down."
As soon as she heard this, Cara immediately propped herself up and tried to sit up, "How can you refuse?"
She knew her granddaughter, although on the outside she looked cool and calm, in fact she was very soft at heart, and her medical skill could bring back the dead to life.
Levi stumbled for a moment, and finally nodded.
Ruby had to agree and called Reggie in front of the old lady to say that she could go with him.
At this moment, Reggie was standing in front of the hospital with a sad frown, and he could not help but be excited at her words.
"Good! I'll be waiting for you in front of the hospital, so when you're packed, we'll be on the plane any time!"
After hanging up the phone, Ruby was still uneasy and looked sideways at Olivia on the other side of the hospital bed.
The old lady could see her concern and said in a warm voice, "Don't worry, I will take care of Olivia, you just focus on healing and saving people, you don't need to think about anything else."
Saying that, she patted Levi, "Levi, get the bag I put on the sofa."
Levi immediately did as he was told and handed the plain bag to the old lady.
Then, after opening the bag, the old lady fumbled with the fabric on the side of the bag again, and immediately afterwards a zip emerged.
When they saw this, both Levi and Ruby were surprised. Neither of them had expected that such an inconspicuous bag would have a hidden secret in it.
Just as the two men stared unblinkingly, the old woman unzipped her zip and pulled something out of it.
It was a parchment scroll, which appeared to be of some age.
