Renewal Of Love -
Chapter 442 The Old Man's Son Showed Up (Part One)
Anna and Kevin were stunned by the questions thrown by the old man.
He said it with utmost certainty, insisting that it was Kevin and Anne who beat him. The conviction in his accusation made it seem irrefutable. Kevin sighed with pity. "When you held my hand and said that I knocked you down into the ground, I saw a surveillance camera on our left."
The old man's body stiffened. He closed his eyes and stayed silent.
The doctor and the nurse looked at each other. They didn't know what to make of this situation.
Who on earth hit the old man? Of course, they didn't know. But what they did know was that Kevin was very unlucky.
Despite his persistent accusations, Kevin remained patient with the old man. "Sir, you are too old, and your wounds are very serious. Why don't you give me your family's phone number so that I can inform them on your behalf to take care of you?"
However, the old man stayed still and refused to speak a word.
Kevin looked at the nurse beside him. The nurse sighed and walked towards the old man. "Sir," the nurse said with a gentle tone, "you're old, and your injuries are serious. Let your children come to see you." That still didn't work. The old man was still unmoving and silent as though he had fallen asleep.
Kevin grew more helpless as time went by. He turned to Anne, who shook her head at him.
He then went to see the doctor. The doctor told Kevin that although the old man was in good condition, it would be better for him to have an operation first since he was old.
Despite knowing that he wasn't responsible for what happened to the old man, Kevin still agreed to pay for his medical fees.
People in the hospital who knew what really happened lauded Kevin for his generosity.
Despite this unlucky encounter, he still managed to be kind.
Anne, on the other hand, felt very dissatisfied and aggrieved. However, she didn't stop Kevin from paying the old man's bills. Just like he said, they were just doing a good deed. Noticing that the hospital's food wasn't very nutritious, Anne herself offered to cook for the old man and made him bone soup every day.
Every day, the old man ate a lot. However, he still hadn't given them his children's contact number. He also barely talked with anyone while he was in the hospital.
His uncooperative nature made it hard for anyone to help him.
Some nurses even posted photos of him on the internet, hoping that someone would recognize him and contact his children for them. However, there was no positive response.
The old man was scheduled to have an operation later that afternoon. Since it was a relatively harmless orthopedics operation, After he slept the entire afternoon, the anaesthetic wore off and he finally woke up.
Both Anne and Kevin didn't leave the hospital. As soon as the old man woke up, he was given liquid food. With groggy eyes, he looked at them and frowned. "No matter how good you are to me, I will continue to tell others that you were the one who beat me."
Anne's hand trembled in resentment as the spoon she was holding shook with it.
"Justice naturally inhabits a man's heart." Anne was offended by the old man's words and wanted to stand up and leave. However, when she saw the gauze on his body, she was paralyzed by pity. She then picked up the spoon and continued to feed him soup.
Kevin shook his head. "Don't worry, sir. Just like what you said, everyone will get old. When Anne and I get old, we also wish someone would be there to help us. If ever we're in danger, we also hope that someone with good intentions will help us.
You don't have to worry about your medical expenses. We've arranged everything and you can stay here as long as you want."
The old man tried to sit up but he was too weak to do so. He threw a surprised look at Kevin, confused why this man was so generous. Before he could say anything, Kevin continued, "If you have any financial difficulties, you can tell us. We're happy to help."
A good person should help others to the end. Since he had come this far, he would help this old man until all his problems were solved.
Kevin was a businessman. He was good at calculating and foreseeing outcomes. Of course he knew what should be the best course of action.
As Kevin continued to speak, the old man grew more surprised. Finally, he slowly opened his mouth and his throat moved. However, he was yet to say a single word.
Concerned for the old man, Anne asked, "Sir, is something wrong? If so, please tell us so that we can help you!"
The old man frowned and continued to say nothing. Anne scooped up a spoonful of soup and tried to feed it to the old man when suddenly, he lashed out, "This tastes terrible! Don't cook these things for me anymore."
Finally, he shut his eyes closed as though he was about to rest.
Taken aback by the old man's complaint, Anne looked up at Kevin. He sighed and shook his head. She had no choice but to pack up everything and go back to the hotel with Kevin.
"Kevin, what happened to that old man? He's been in the hospital for two days already. Aren't his children worried for him? Why aren't they looking for him?" The news had already spread on the internet. Their children should have already seen it, and yet, no one had gone to the hospital to visit the old man.
"I don't know either. His mind seems to be clear. I'm sure he remembers his children's phone number; he's just not telling us." Kevin sighed and kept quiet for a while. After a while, he said, "It's not a good idea to let this go on. After two days, the old man should be better. Let's just call the police and tell them what happened."
Anne nodded in agreement. This was the only thing that they could do. Moreover, they had more important thing to do in W City.
"Is there still no news about Mr. Huang?" Anne asked.
Kevin shook his head. "Let's go to Mr. Huang's company tomorrow."
