Chapter 749 Die Sonless

"Grandpa?" Hester was confused. Was there such a benefit for her engagement with Derek?

"Ah! Well, Derek is very reliable. I'm relieved to let him take care of you!" Edmund covered his mouth
with his hand and coughed.

'Oh my God! I just blurted out what I was thinking...' he thought.

"Grandpa, why didn't you discuss with me about my engagement with Derek?" Hester's eyes darkened.
She nodded slightly and asked her doubts in a low voice.

She had just come back and her grandpa was eager to let her marry Derek, which confused her a lot.

"Hester, let me tell you. Our family and the Yu family have been friends for generations, so our
relationship is naturally good and we know everything about each other. Grandpa puts you two together
just for your own good. Don't be angry!"

Fearing that Hester would say something radical to annoy his grandfather, Leo explained in a hurry.
'Don't quarrel again because of your marriage!'

Rosemary's example was really frightening!

"Cousin, I know what grandpa is thinking. But why am I the last one to know that? It's unfair to me!"

Hester clenched her fists and roared. She didn't want to have a second arranged marriage after going
through it.

She couldn't help but want to get angry, but she couldn't figure out the mixed feelings.

Edmund's mind went blank for a moment, and his heart was choked with sobs. Her stubborn look made
him in a trance for a moment, as if the person in front of her was Rosemary.



At that time, she was so resistant that he didn't know what to do. He couldn't imagine that the obedient
and sensible girl like Rosemary would disobey him because of that man.

Thinking of the past, Edmund felt suffocated and fell to the ground, covering his chest.

"Grandpa!" "Grandpa!"

Leo and Hester shouted at the same time and helped him up in a hurry, at a loss.

"Go and find Hardy!" Compared with Hester's blank mind, Leo was still able to find a clue and send
someone to find the doctor.

"Wait for me. I'll be right there!" Hester nodded in a hurry and ran out. She stumbled all the way to find
Hardy.

Hearing that Edmund was not feeling well, Hardy called his son in a hurry. All the members of the Liu
family were in the house because of Hester's return. They rushed over when they heard the news.

The whole family sat in the living room with a gloomy face. They were so quiet that even a needle
dropping could be heard clearly.

"Hester, don't worry!" Rowena held Hester's hand and raised her eyebrows slightly. "Dad has always
been healthy, and this time is no exception."

Hester nodded in panic. She didn't know why her grandfather suddenly lost control of his emotions, nor
did she know why things had turned out like this.

"Don't worry, everyone. The master is fine now." Louis hung the stethoscope around his neck and
nodded slightly, trying to make everyone feel relieved.



Hester collapsed on the sofa, feeling weak. Fortunately, grandpa was fine. If something really
happened to him, she really didn't know how to explain it to her mother.

"Miss Hester, the master let you in!" Louis walked slowly to Hester and said softly.

Hester raised her eyes and staggered up from the sofa. Standing at the door of the bedroom, she didn't
dare to enter. She didn't know how to face her grandfather, and her body trembled slightly.

As long as she thought of her grandfather's look just now, she felt very scared. It took her a long time to
find her grandfather back. She couldn't let him leave like this!

Lying on the bed, Edmund's face was pale, but his eyes were very attractive, dark and bright, making
people unable to take their eyes off.

"Why are you standing at the door? Come in!"

Judging from Hester's expression, he knew that he had frightened her today.

After all, he was too old to do something.

"You don't have to blame yourself for what you have done. Just now, my blood pressure just increased
a little. Look at you, you are so scared."

Hearing her grandfather's words, Hester was still a little uncomfortable. She had thought about it
carefully just now. The reason why her grandfather looked like that was probably because her
resistance reminded him of her mother!

"I know!"

She nodded and hid the tears in her eyes. Then she slowly walked to the window and sat down. She
rubbed the sheet with her fingertips and bit her lips to prevent herself from crying.



"Silly girl, I'm old after all. There will be a day when I die. What should you do in the future if you can't
let it go?"

Edmund sighed and said with self-mockery. This child was the same as Rosemary. They both attached
great importance to love, and they would definitely be trapped by love in the future.

"You can think about it in another way. Maybe your mother is too lonely to stay in the heaven alone.
Only grandpa can accompany her, so she will take grandpa with her to reunite with her, right?"

Tears instantly fell from Hester's eyes, spreading a large area of her pure white clothes. A low sob
slowly sounded in the room, with a strong suppression, suffocating.

"Grandpa, don't you think it's too childish to use such words to comfort her?" Leo slowly walked in with
a bowl of medicine in his hand. He heard Edmund's comforting words and couldn't help making fun of
him.

His grandfather was good in everything, except that he was too strict. He was so stubborn that he
never lowered his head easily. It was really troublesome.

Edmund's face turned red, which looked a little weird. He looked at Leo kindly with a slight smile at the
corners of his mouth.

"Since Hester doesn't think highly of the marriage with Derek, and you have a good relationship with
him since childhood. It's not easy for our Liu family to cancel the marriage again and again. Why don't
you marry him on behalf of Hester? In this way, you don't have to show up in front of me every day. It's
very annoying."

Leo's ears rumbled as if he had met a thunderbolt. 'I was just joking. Grandpa, you don't have to be so
cruel!' he thought.



"Grandpa, I understand you are eager to make up for it. But if you let the only boy of the Liu family
marry him, our family may die sonless!"
