Contract Marriage With Mysterious President
Chapter 168 John Passed Away

When Amy called Richard, he sounded very anxious on the phone.

"Amy, where have you been? Grandpa has been seriously ill for a long time in the hospital. Tell me where you are, and I'll pick you up." Although Richard was anxious, he also paid attention to his tone. John was really sick. Did Sophia tricked her into coming back so that everyone in the family would have prejudices against her?

"No need to pick me up, Richard. Just tell me the location. I'll take a taxi." Amy also knew that Richard was worried about her, but it would be a waste of time.

John was in a really bad situation. So Richard didn't say anything else and directly told Amy the address of the hospital.

Amy took a taxi and quickly arrived at the hospital. When she got on the 28th floor and got out of the elevator, she heard the sound of crying.

It was over. This time, she didn't get to see John before he died. Amy saw that the Carters were all crying in the corridor.

"Amy, hurry up and see Grandpa." Richard was anxiously waiting for Amy. As soon as he came out, he saw Amy arrive. He hurriedly let Amy enter the ward.

John had passed away. His death was also a relief to him. Years of illness had tortured him badly. Although he was tough and didn't complain, everyone knew his pain.

John could live longer, but how did he suddenly die?

William and Jacob were in the ward, and Allison was also there.

"You bitch, grandpa was so kind to you. You didn't come to see him while he was dying. Where did you go? Why couldn't we reach you? How heartless you are!" Eva hadn't forgotten to scold Amy at this time. John's death was also a good thing for her. No one could suppress her at home in the future.

"That's right. You always pretend to be nice, but at the critical moment, what did you do? Did you wish grandpa to die?" Jacob also spoke at this time.

"What are you talking about? Don't judge without knowing the truth. Now that Grandpa was gone, why are we still arguing? Tell everyone to come and pay their condolences. We should arrange his funeral properly." Richard defended Amy and stood beside her.

Richard was still respected at home. Everyone seemed to calm down after hearing his words, but the way Eva looked at Amy was filled with hostility.

Richard took Amy to Cathy. At this time, the way Halbert looked at Amy was not very friendly either.

"Mom, let Amy stay with you. I'm going to take care of Grandpa's funeral. Dad, come with me." Richard called for Halbert to go with him to deal with these.

"Amy, where did you go just now? I can't reach you." At this time, Cathy finally got her chance and asked Amy in a low voice.

"Mom, if I say that Sophia tricked me back home and blocked the signal at home, will you believe me?" asked Amy.

"I believe you." Cathy answered without hesitation.

She knew Amy very well. It was impossible for her not to answer the phone for such a long time. This was definitely a trap set by Sophia. However, Sophia was too despicable. She actually used John as bait. "I don't care if others believe me or not. As long as you and Richard believe me, I will be satisfied." Amy said to Cathy.

They were silent after the conversation. John's death was such a blow to them. Now that Eva had returned, she would definitely help Addy and her family. Then Cathy and Amy would be in trouble.

"Of course I believe you. You are my daughter-in-law. I know you very well. It's just that our current situation is not good. Your father seems to have listened to your grandmother's words and has a bad impression of you. I don't want to go back home anymore." Cathy still hadn't forgiven Halbert.

"Mom, come back. Our home is incomplete and cold without you. Mom, if you leave, I probably won't be able to stay for long." Amy said to Cathy. Was this the ending of this family?

"Let me think about it. Amy, you are now the vice president of HD Group. There will be many people watching you. They are eager to replace trouble with you. We are in a difficult situation but I haven't thought of a proper way to solve it for the time being." Cathy and Amy were discussing what they should do next.

"There are consequences. Let's see what you've done to John. Now that he was gone, are you happy?" Eva walked over at this time. She pointed at Amy and Cathy and scolded them.

At this moment, however, a person was shooting from afar with a camera. But everyone was busy with John's matters, and no one noticed.

"Grandma, don't be angry. Amy may have some difficulties. Come and rest for a while." Allison supported Eva and walked to Amy's side. She looked as if she was considerate to Amy. Seeing this, Jacob felt even more distressed for her.

"Allison, you are so gentle and kind. However, some people are not as kind as you think. You treat her so well, but she may harm you behind your back." Jacob said to Allison.

"Yes, Allison. If only all the girls nowadays were as kind as you. However, some people insist on being mean and selfish." Eva also spoke for Allison.

Neither Amy nor Cathy argued with these people. In their eyes, it was not worth it.

John's funeral would be held three days later. But some people from the Carter family hadn't arrived yet, so they had to wait.

However, there were many stories about Amy in the newspaper the next day.

There was a large photo of Amy and a man on the news. The man held Amy's hand. The two of them were very close. The background of the photo was very blurry and you could only see his profile but Amy was facing the camera directly.

The headline was, "The daughter-in-law of the Carter family was dating another man as John Carter was dying. Where did all the moral values go?"

The entire R City was bustling with excitement. It was rumored that Amy was cheating on Richard when John was fighting with death. As a result, many people who did not know the truth were denouncing Amy Even within the HD Group, the story of Amy began to spread crazily.

Richard looked at the newspaper and could tell that the man should be Andy. But when was this photo taken? The background was very blurry, which must be planned by others on purpose.

He decided to ignore it, but it wouldn't disappear. Just as Richard hid all the newspapers and didn't let Amy see them, another overwhelming piece of news came out on the third day.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
