Five days was fleeting.
"Careful. Be careful."
Spencer helped Axel enter the house. Seeing him so careless, she was so worried, "You don’t get fully better. The doctor asked you to be hospitalized for another month, but you didn’t listen to him. We still have money. Why do you want to come back so quickly? Do you have anything important at home?"
"Honey, I can’t do anything in the hospital. Only home makes me feel comfortable. Besides, you can take good care of me at home. I feel almost recovered. I can walk without any pain."
Spencer was surprised, "The doctors also said that your recovery speed is a bit surprising."
"Honey, this is all because of you."
"Me?"
Axel laughed and put his arms around Spencer's slender waist, "It's because you have given enough love to make me get better so quickly. If you give more, I might be able to jump in two days."
More?
Doing that stuff?
Spencer glared at him and said shyly, "You bad bad! Lie down."
Seeing the sweet relationship between parents, Katherine and Isabella also felt sweet.
Family harmony was really good.
"Dad, I bought you an electric wheelchair with my pocket money. The operation is simple and the speed is fast. It's okay for you to go around the community. It is so cool."
Spencer said again, "Why do you buy an electric one? He will run around. What should I do if something happens to him again? Return it immediately and change to a hand-pushing one."
"Oh, no. The electric one is good."
Axel now felt so happy. He hadn't enjoyed his wife's service so well for many years. He secretly looked at Charlie.
The two looked at each other. Axel secretly gave a thumbs up to Charlie.
"Dad, Mommy, there is a piece of great happy news."
"Say it." Spencer didn't look up, peeling an apple for Axel.
Katherine grinned and said, "Dad, do you remember the lottery you bought half a month ago? Mom and I were with you that day."
"Oh, yes, I played mahjong that day. I was so lucky that I won a lot of money, so I said to buy a lottery to try my luck."
Speaking of this, Axel suddenly thought of something.
"Could it be that……"
"Yes, you won the lottery!"
The room was very quiet.
"Wow!"
Isabella was the first one to react. She hugged Katherine and shouted, "Sister, are you serious? Did we really win the lottery? Is it the first prize?"
"No, it's the second prize. But Dad bought it with ten dollars at that time. He won more than 2.5 million dollars in total. After paying taxes, we can still get about two million. "
Katherine took out her bank card. She was so happy, "Dad, Mommy, when you were in the hospital, Charlie and I quietly went to cash the prizes. The money is here."
Spencer was still dumfounded.
Unexpectedly, she was not as excited as Isabella, but rather calm. Soon, she covered her face and started crying.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"Honey, this is a happy thing. Why are you crying?" Axel's joy disappeared instantly. He was a little worried.
Spencer cried. She choked with sobs, "Nothing. I'm happy. After so many years, you have finally made some contributions to this family."
"Honey, don't worry. I will work hard."
Axel felt uncomfortable. He hugged his wife and looked at his daughters and son-in-law.
After a while, he said with smile, "Okay, well, it’s a big happy event. Why are you so sad? Now, we have won the prize! Two million! Honey, it's time for us to do a big thing."
Spencer asked, "What?"
"Change the house. Haven't you wanted to change to a new, bigger and more beautiful house with a better location? Now we have money. If you don’t buy a house, will you put the money in the bank?"
Then everyone went to get their stuff.
Isabella and Katherine brought their computers. Axel and Spencer also searched on their mobile phones. The discussion was in full swing.
It felt like a warm and nice home.
Charlie didn't know why he felt some loss. It was not because no one asked him to discuss it together, but the emptiness had already penetrated into his soul.
For five thousand years, he had no home.
Over time, he had gone through countless years and watched the changes of dynasties. Of course, he had had sex with some women, but he didn’t love them.
He had no children.
