Regal Guard of Dragon
Chapter 2 Accident

People around there were astonished. Did Maura Shawn have a fever tospeak such nonsense? Did she mean that if Finn Chen couldnt go in,she wouldn't go in as well?

“Maura Shawn! Do you want to betray the family for an outsider?” HankShawn looked furious. He didnt think Maura would say such wordsbecause of Finn. The Ceremony of Ancestor-Worship was one of themost significant activities in Shawn's Family. Once it was held, everymember of the family had to attend, which was the unshakable rule!The descendants of Shawn's Family would be regarded impious oncethey missed the ceremony.

If Maura didn't go in the Ancestral Shrine, in terms of the master ofShawn's Family, Scott Shawn's temper, she would be expelled from thefamily.

Therefore, the nature of this matter was definitely serious!

“Maura, go in. Your cousin is right. They are the ancestors of Shawn'sFamily, not mine, so it's inappropriate for me to go in.” Finn said.

He knew that someone must give in between Maura and Hank, or bothwould be punished

But Maura would be punished more severely. Finn didn't want Maura tobe expelled, so he had to stand out and give in.

Even if it was humiliating, and he would be mocked more by the public,but Finn still willing to.

For Maura, he could give up all his dignity.

“Finn...” Maura sobbed. She knew the reason for Finn's compromise. Butthe more Finn did such, the more reluctant she was, and the more guiltshe got.

“Well, I'm going to work. I'll be back early in the evening.” Finnpretended to be at ease and then left without looking back.

Though Finn was severely humiliated, now, his mood was quite calm,and even a little bit secretly surprised, because the word Maura hadsaid before, “he enters, I enter!”

It was the first time in three years that Maura stood on his side andfirmly chose him in front of her family.

For this word, Finn felt that all his grievances were deserved!

After work, Finn went home and began to cook.

Finn was good at cooking. When he was adopted by Grant Shawn threeyears ago, he actually gained Grant's acknowledgment with hisexcellent cooking skills.

In Grant's word, all men doing well in cooking were good.

At that time, Maura had a good impression on Finn as well. WithGrant's help, he became the adopted son-in-law of Shawn's Family.However, after their marriage, a lot of contradictions broke outgradually.

Grant was not taken seriously in Shawn's Family so that his businesswas getting worse. Finn had no talent in business, so he couldn't helpGrant but live with delivering food.

Life had been becoming harder and harder, so Finn's mother-in-law,Leah had also complained about Finn's uselessness and thought hedidn’t deserve Maura.

If Finn didn't appear, for the sake of Maura's pretty appearance, shemust have to marry into a reputable family, so that Leah would have tolive well.

Finn couldn't refute this. He was an illegitimate son, with little moneyand poor educational background, definitely inferior to Maura, who wasindeed a beauty graduating from a prestigious university and keepingthe image of the goddess on campus for the whole four years.

The only thing he could give Maura was his sincerity.

But in this world, sincerity was always the most worthless thing.

Putting the prepared food on the table, Finn wondered. It was laterwhen Grand and Leah came usually, but why did they so slow today?The telephone rang.

“Finn, Dad...Dad was hit by a car...”

Finn's face changed color. It was Maura’s voice, but the message it sentwas frightening.

Did she say that Grant had a car accident?

“Maura, don't worry. I'm coming.” Finn hung up the phone and thenquickly went to the hospital.

When he arrived, Finn saw Maura weeping on a bench.

Leah was stamping around with anxiety.

“Maura, what's going on?” Finn trotted to Maura and asked anxiously.Slap!

Before Maura opened her mouth, Leah came up and gave a slap inFinn's face.

It was quite painful.

“How dare you to ask what's going on?” Leah growled. “You fool, wherewere you this afternoon? Why didn’t you pick up Grant?”

Finn was stunned. Usually, Finn would be the driver for Grant whenGrant was off work. Grant's leg was injured before, so it wasn't flexiblefor driving.

But today, Grant had gone to the Ancestral Shrine and hadn't calledFinn after that.

Finn thought Grant wouldn't come back today, so he forgot to pick up.“Mom, I'm sorry.” Finn apologized. He was accountable for Grant'saccident.

“Is it use to apologize? You fool, you have done nothing good since youcame to our family all these three years!” Leah was emotionallyunstable. She cried. “If Grant has any problem, you must immediatelydivorce my daughter and get out of Shawn's Family.

Leah's voice was sharp, which attracted many people to watch.

But now Finn didn't have time to consider his face. Grant was not onlyhis father-in-law but also his lifesaver, so he couldn't accept Grant'sdeath.

“Who's the family member of the patient?” A doctor in the whiteuniform came over.

“l am.” Leah and Maura rushed to him.

"The patient is now suffering from massive internal hemorrhage, whichis severely serious and requires immediate surgery.” The middle-agedDoctor said seriously.

Hearing this, Leah almost fainted, and Maura's face was also pale.“Doctor, please arrange the operation as soon as possible. We canaccept it at any cost.” Finn said in a deep voice.

“Fine, sign first, and then pay for the operation.” The Doctor took out adisclaimer. Finn signed his name quickly.

But when he saw the cost on the list, his pupil suddenly tightened.

Five million!

An astronomical number!

It was just a surgical operation. Why did it cost five million?

Finn felt something wrong. With Grant's economic situation, not tomention five million yuan, even 500000 was hard for him.

Could it be the wrong print? Finn came to the payment room withwishful thinking.

But then, the toll collector told him that there was nothing wrong.

It was five million!

Finn was a delivery man with a salary of about six thousand yuan amonth, so how could he pay five million?

Grant's condition was serious, so it was too late to transfer to anotherhospital.

Where could he get five million?

How about asking someone to borrow it? But who would lend such alarge amount of money to him?

Finn felt irritable. There had never been such a moment for him to replacethat money was so useful.

“Young master..." At this time, a familiar voice appeared behind him.Finn turned around. It was Jones Chen who smiled at him.

In a flash, Finn knew it.

“It was you!” Finn furiously clenched his fist. Now, he would be an idiotif he still hadn't realized this.

A sudden car accident, the astronomical number of the operation cost...Every step was carefully planned!

The purpose was just to force him back to Chen's Family!

Jones shook his head and said with a smile. “Young master, what areyou talking about? I don't understand...”

“Bang!”

Jones was still speaking, but Finn suddenly hit Jones's nose with his fist,blood running OULANAARAAAAANANAA
