Avenger's coming back novel Chapter 46

"Grandpa, let's go inside." With the permission, Lily helped Joe into the ward.

Walking to the ward bed, Joe said to Angela sincerely, "Mrs. Angela, I want to thank you on behalf of Lily."

Then he bowed.

"I can't." She didn't expect Joe to do so, and she hastily reached out her hand to hold him. "Please take a seat. You're an elder, I'm afraid that I can't accept your bow."

"This is my sincerest appreciation." With the support of Angela, Joe sat down.

Lily was shocked what her grandfather did.

"My dear child, thanks to you, Lily could be safe." Looking at Eric who was lying on the sickbed, Joe said, "I will remember your kindness."

"Grandpa Joe, you don't have to thank me. It's my duty to save her." Eric replied in a calm tone.

Lily looked at him in disbelief. These three words were deeply touched her. Her heart was filled with a kind of emotion, sweet and warm.

Angela also couldn't believe her son. She looked at her son in disbelief. How could she, as a mother, not know his thoughts? She gave Lily a secret look with dissatisfaction.

When Joe heard these words, he laughed and said, "Eric, don't say that. Since you have saved Lily life, I owe you and your family a favor."

Then he turned his head and looked at Angela. "If you need any help in the future, just tell me. I will try my best to do anything I can."

"Mr. Joe, you are being too serious. The children are all right now. And you bowed to me just now. I can't..."

"Mrs. Angela." Joe interrupted her and said stubbornly, "I always do what I say. If you refuse me, you look down on me."

Angela was stunned by what he said. She didn't expect that he would say that, so she had to nod her head and replied, "If there's anything you can help with, I'll definitely ask you."

"That's good."

When Eric saw Joe making a bow and promise, he was happy. Although the family didn't like Lily, her grandpa loved her very much.

Seeing what her grandpa had done for her, Lily was very touched, even her eyes were red. This was the first time that she had seen his grandpa bow to others.

"By the way, how did you fall from the cliff?" Joe asked suddenly.

Hearing this, Angela also looked at Eric, eager to know the truth.

"I only saw that someone was chasing after her. It seemed that someone wanted to kill her,"

As soon as Eric finished his words, Angela took a deep breath. She turned to Lily and asked, "Did you make enemies outside?"

Lily shook her head and said, "I don't know who they are. They said that if I didn't go with them, I should jump down. I can't go with them. Their words are so mean. When I was forced to make a choice by them, Eric appeared. He held my hand when I fell down the cliff. As a result, he also fell down with me."

Joe frowned. After a long while, he said, "I know Lily well. It's impossible for her to make enemies with anyone."

However, Angela sun didn't agree with him but didn't say anything. After all, he was an elder and it was inappropriate to argue with him.

Eric agreed with him on this matter. Her friends were little than anything else. She had no good friends except Becky, and she didn't have bad friends. Of course, those who just made trouble for her didn't count.

"I'm not make enemy." Lily lowered her head and said in a wronged tone.

Lucia was the most suspicious one, but she couldn't say it, because if she did, Lucia would definitely know it and make the whole thing worse.

"I will investigate it. Don't think too much." Joe comforted her.

"Yes." Lily nodded.

After a short conversation, Joe took Lily and said goodbye to them.

When they got back to the ward, the bed of Claire was empty. Needless to say, Lucia and Dillon had already taken her home.

Lily sneered. They were becoming more and more obvious now. At least they would treat him better in front of her before, but now they just didn't care her anymore.

Joe frowned, took a chair and sat down. He said to Lily, "Lily, I want to discuss something with you."

Lily pulled up a chair and sat beside him. "Grandpa, what do you want to say?"

"Originally, I wanted you to live with them because I thought your mother had left and your father would protect you and take care of you. But now, it seems that it's not the case. So I think you'd better go back to the old house and live with me, okay?" Joe asked for her opinion.
