Chapter 427 Please Do Not Send Me Away
On the verge of blowing her top off, Mary could taste blood in her mouth.
“Grandma…” Tim wailed in shock when he saw the old lady spitting out blood.
“Are you okay, Grandma? Let me take you to the hospital!”
“Tim, run! I’m afraid I can’t hold on any longer…” Mary said, panting heavily.
Seeing that Mary was on the brink of death, Raphael was stunned.
“Don’t you blame me for this, old hag! It’s all your fault.”
With that, Raphael gave up on extorting money from Tim and scurried away in fear.
“Grandma!” Tim cried loudly.
The seemingly lifeless Mary suddenly held his hand and consoled him, “Don’t cry… I’m fine…”
Although she was beaten to a pulp, her life was not at stake. She only put on a show to scare her
unfilial son to his wits.
I can’t allow that ungrateful b*stard to gamble away Tim’s hard-earned money.
“Grandma!”
Tim scrutinized her thoroughly to confirm that she was really all right.
“I was acting just now.” Her breath was still uneven.
“But you spewed blood, Grandma.”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and wiped off the blood stain from the corner of Mary’s mouth.
This is definitely not acting.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine…”
Mary tried to prop herself up. “Come on, Tim. Let’s have dinner first. Thereafter, I’ve got something to
tell you.”
Still worried about the older woman, Tim proposed otherwise, “Grandma, I think it’s best if I bring you to
the hospital for a check-up. I earned enough today for you to consult a doctor.”
“You’re such a good boy, Tim.” An inexplicable sadness washed over Mary as she wiped off the tears
that came streaming down her face.
“But I’m hungry. So let’s have dinner first, okay?”
She could not bear the thought to let the boy go hungry because of her.
Her heart sank when she glanced at his scrawny body.
Ever since the passing of her husband, her son’s behavior worsened.
Not only did Raphael keep threatening her, but he also bullied the young Tim.
If she had known that this would happen, she would not have redeemed her heartless son back then.
“Okay, sure, let’s eat something before heading to the hospital then.”
Tim assisted Mary to the dining table.
We’d better eat quick and then go to the hospital, or else that wicked uncle of mine would return to
snatch my money again. I must hurry and spend the money on medication so that there’s none left for
him to take.
Subsequently, the elderly and the young had a pathetic dinner with only pasta and sauce.
Looking at how Tim was willing to lead a simple and impecunious life without any grumbling, Mary was
pleased and sad at the same time.
“Eat more, Grandma! I’ll buy you some meat tomorrow and hide it from Uncle Raphael.”
He gave his grandmother the rest of his pasta and added some more sauce on top.
“You should have more too, Tim.”
She scooped some pasta from her plate, wanting to share it with him. “I can’t finish them.”
Worried, Tim stared at her for a moment and quickly lowered his head to continue eating. When we get
to the city later, I must buy something nice for Grandma.
Immediately after dinner, he began to clear the table.
“Tim, stop what you’re doing and come over here. I have something to tell you.”
Mary was afraid that Raphael would make a reappearance.
“What is it, Grandma?” The boy rushed over.
“Tim, take this money and leave this place at once.”
Mary sniffled. As much as she would miss him dearly, she was determined to send him away instead of
having him live a life of torture with her.
“Are we leaving together?” Tim wanted to be sure.
“No, you should leave on your own and go to a place far away. Never ever let your good-for-nothing
uncle finds you. I’m old and useless. So don’t waste your hard-earned money on me. Go to Dellmoor.
Perhaps you might meet your parents there. Or, you can start anew at the orphanage. I bet it’s a
hundred times better than living here,” Mary explained.
Soon, Tim began to weep profusely.
“Grandma, don’t leave me alone. I don’t want to go. I want to stay by your side. Please don’t send me
away…”
