Chapter 455 Play Dumb

Derrick burst into laughter.

"Oh, Grandpa! My father's smile is abnormal, isn't it? Look at him! He just woke up. How could he have
so much strength?" A sad expression painted Joseph's face. "Dad, if you're awake, please say
something."

Tears began to form in the corner of Joseph's eyes.

"What? Who are you? Ha ha ha ha!" Unfortunately, Derrick didn't respond suitably. All he did was play
dumb.

The medical examination revealed that his brain was indeed injured. As such, no one knew whether he
was crazy or just faking it.

"Hey! What's going on?" With a grim expression, Frederic's heart sank again.

'Derrick finally woke up! However, why is he laughing so crazily?'

"Sir, please don't fret. Mr. Fu has just woken up. He still needs still some time to adjust," advised the
doctor.

"Yes, I hope so. Anyway, him waking up is still a good sign, right?" Frederic comforted himself as a sigh
escaped his breath.

"Indeed. Opening up his eyes is a great improvement," said Hardy with a nod.

"Uncle Derrick, the stock of TS Group bounced back today. Doesn't that make you happy?" Charles
blurted out coldly.



For a moment, Derrick stopped laughing. However, after a slight pause, he soon burst into laughter
again.

"Well, it seems that uncle is still interested in the stock, Grandpa!" With a glance, Charles already
realized that Derrick was only pretending. Derrick made great efforts to escape legal sanction and get
the TS Group.

Since Derrick could no longer pretend to be dead, he began to play dumb again!

"Calm down, Charles. Don't say that. Doctor, what should we do now?" asked Frederic with furrowed
eyebrows.

"Sir, don't worry. We'll immediately give Mr. Fu a thorough examination. The result will come out
tomorrow!" said the doctor with a smile. Then, he signaled the nurse to push the bed out.

Then, Frederic hurriedly followed them.

"Daddy, what are we doing next? Shall we go home now?" Bobby became exhausted after making a
fuss.

"Well, alright. Let's head home." Charles bent down and gave Bobby and Nadia big kisses on their
faces. "Tell me, what do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you!"

"I want sweet-and-sour pork!"

"Then, I want fried goose liver!"

"Okay! Let's go tell Mommy! I'll take you to the supermarket." The two kids successfully ruined Derrick's
plan. As such, Charles was delighted and wanted to celebrate.



However, deep inside, Charles became cautious. Derrick was an old fox who would not easily
surrender.

Charles had to find a way to expose Derrick's lies as soon as possible.

After he took out his phone, Charles called Nancy. Unfortunately, Nancy's phone was powered off.
Charles guessed that she was performing surgery.

Since he had no choice, Charles left a message to Nancy. Then, he took the two children to the
supermarket. After a long browse, they went to the counter with a lot of food.

Then, they were about to go home to cook dinner.

When he noticed that Charles didn't follow them, Frederic couldn't help his mood became sour. He
complained, "Angelina, you see? Since Charles has a woman and the children, he quickly disregarded
us!"

Angelina couldn't bear to hear people belittle Charles in front of her. With a frown, she said unhappily,
"Father, in the past few days, Charles came to see you every day. Nonetheless, you only care about
Joseph now. Whatever Charles does, you are always showing him your disapproval."

"Nonsense. Who says I don't like Charles? Well, he is too stubborn..." Frederic snorted, as a sigh
escaped his breath.

"Grandpa, my brother is not just stubborn. He might also be arrogant and conceited. To put it bluntly,
although he is capable, he is too overconfident and supercilious," Joseph echoed with a smug smile.

"Stop talking about him, Joseph! You should be the most complacent one now. The TS Group becomes
yours without any effort. You're not only lazy but also very shameless. Despite all that, your brother is
still kind to you. How can you do this to him? Don't you feel guilty about grabbing the position of



Charles? He paid countless painstaking efforts to develop the group. Don't you feel sorry for him?"
Angelina was enraged at that moment. After Joseph came back, he had been eating and drinking at
her house. Of course, although she treated Joseph as her son, she still had expectations for him. That
was, she wanted him to be more grateful to her. But in the end, her plan was in vain. In front of
interests, Joseph would never give up the TS Group because of her little favor.

Unfortunately, Angelina hadn't realized it until that moment.

"Auntie, Charles and I are family. Why can't I be the president of the TS Group? Besides, it's my
brother who doesn't want to lead the company. If I don't take it over, who else could be? I am doing this
for the Fu family."

"Humph! You are getting better at finding excuses for yourself!" With a frown, Angelina rolled her eyes
at Joseph.

Despite that, Joseph still snickered.

Meanwhile, Charles had already bought the food. He went home and prepared a marvelous dinner.

Nancy left work late. Maybe it was because of winter; several patients were in the hospital.

As such, she was preoccupied for the whole day.

When she finished the operation, Nancy was thrilled when she saw the message Charles left. Since it
was getting dark, she packed up and was about to go home.

As soon as she walked out of the office, Nancy saw Jessie walking towards her.

Since Jessie was punished, she seemed to have changed a lot. She worked hard every day and
treated people much better than before. As such, Jessie's reputation inevitably improved.



Even Erin was impressed with Jessie's development. Once, he said, "Director Nancy, Director Jessie is
much better than before. Now she will take the initiative to greet me whenever she sees me. In the
past, I didn't even dare to think about it!"

"Well, people often change. Let's call this change growth!" said Nancy with a smile.

Deep inside, Nancy had never thought that Jessie was a bad woman. She knew that Jessie was poor
in the past. There was no doubt that the poor were not ambitious.

Lofty contempt for money was mere self-deception and self-comfort.

Liking money was not equal to being controlled by money, nor was it equivalent to worshiping money.

"Wow, Director Nancy! You are so kind!" Erin had never seen such a tolerant person. Because of
excitement, she ran up and gave a big hug to Nancy.

"You are also kind." Nancy revealed a warm smile.

The sincerity of Nancy's words made Erin blush. "Thank you for your praise, Director Nancy. I'm going
to work."

"Okay. Take care!"

Looking at the energetic figure of Erin, Nancy was delighted.

Aside from Jessie, Erin had also changed for the better.

The once timid and cautious Erin became outgoing and lively!

At the thought of those desirable events, the smile on Nancy's face deepened. When she saw Jessie,
Nancy asked, "Director Jessie, are you still working?"



"I just got off work. But I have something to tell you, because I know that something has happened in
the Fu family recently. You're also worried about it, aren't you?" said Jessie with furrowed eyebrows.
Then, she took out her phone.

"Thank you, Director Jessie!" Nancy couldn't interfere too much in their family affairs. Sadly, she was
not from the Fu family.
