Chapter 39 It would be nice if he could live another day
"I noticed it when we came here, 800 meters away from here, next to the red-tiled house..."
"OK. I know you have a good memory. Go now."
"OK, I'll go. Be careful when you cut the vegetables."
"I see. Don't be so wordy."
Looking at the man's straight and cool back, Sarah felt a sense of steadiness from him.
She turned and went on working.
The first pot of Chinese medicine was finished. Aunt put it in a basin, and then pour water to boil it for the second time.
"I think that young man was good to you."
In the busy time, Aunt chatted with Sarah leisurely.
Sarah thought of Jacob's face in her mind. "He was my driver and bodyguard."
"Was that the case?" Aunt lifted her eyelids slightly, and her voice sounded a bit metaphorical.
"Yes." Sarah scratched the tip of her nose, which itched inexplicably.
Aunt bent her lips. The medicine was ready. She poured it into the bowl.
"Boil the water in the pot for a few more minutes, and then pour the meat in. I'll feed the medicine to Mr. Dylan."
"OK. I'll take care of it."
After Aunt went out, Sarah's eyelids kept jumping, feeling that trouble was coming.
She looked up, trying to avoid this uncomfortable feeling.
Meanwhile, outside Dylan's house.
A black noble BMW slowly drove into the alley.
"Madam, is the car in front of us Miss Sarah's?"
The driver's voice came from the front, waking up the half-conscious people in the back seat.
She opened her eyes and looked straight in the direction of the driver's fingers, with a shrewd streak across her eyes.
"Go down and smash the door!"
"Bang, bang, bang -"
There was a deafening knock on the door, one higher than the other, as if he was going to raze the house to the ground. Hearing the sounds outside, Sarah put down the kitchen knife and went out.
The moment she opened the door, she was blocked by the man.
"Who are you?" Sarah was angry.
The man in the black suit ignored her, blocked the door, gave way, and said to the woman behind: "madam."
Megan came forward proudly and stared at Sarah. "Bad girl! You should come to Dover alone secretly. Give me your equity!"
She sent someone to follow Sarah a few days ago, so she learned that she had come to Dover.
"I said I didn't get the equity. Do you believe me?"
Others could not find a half-false look in her bright eyes.
"Who knows if what you said is true? Hand it in quickly! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
"Mother doesn't care about my grandfather here. You only think about equity. How long has my grandfather been ill in bed, do you know?" Sarah frowned unhappily. Sarah thought that Megan would care about her father's health first when she heard that her father was ill, but Megan was calm after hearing this, and she meant to be rude. "It was normal for an old man to be sick. If you don't hand over your shares today, I'll let someone smash this place!"
She yelled so loudly that Aunt and grandpa in the innermost room heard the noise.
"You dare!" Aunt angrily took a broom and walked toward the door.
"Who are you?" Megan frowned.
"What are you doing?" Aunt glanced at Sarah and then turned to the woman with a strong man. "Who cares who are you? Get out of my way!"

Megan waved her hand and made full preparations to rush in.
"You can step on me today!" Aunt stood in front of the door and said, "You live off one person while secretly helping another and you don't take care of your father when he was ill!" "It's none of your business. Let my father come out and give me the equity!" Megan's eyes are full of anger as if everything was taken for granted.
"I said I would not let you enter this house today. If you can do it, just come!" Aunt waved the broom in her hand.
"Stop!"
At this time, the wheezing voice of the old man came from afar, calling back Aunt's reason.
Sarah turned around and held him. "Grandpa, how did you get out?"
Dylan pointed to Megan and said, "Get out of here. I don't recognize you as my daughter!"
After saying these words in one breath, he was out of breath because of irritability and anger. Megan didn't care. "Dad, where are your shares? Tell me quickly. Where are your shares?" There was no warmth in her eyes.
"I won't give you any equity even if I die! You are too ungrateful."
"Dad!" Megan gradually cooled down, as if to be angry.
"Wow!"
A basin of ice water poured on Megan's body and made her clothes wet.
She screamed and went backward. "Crazy woman, you are crazy"
"Am I crazy?" Aunt, holding the basin in her hand, sneered, "Get out of here, and if you don't get out of here, I'll pour water on you again!"
Just after that, she lifted the basin and began to pour it on Megan. Megan had no choice but to retreat.
She pointed to the door that was about to be closed and growled, "Wait, I won't let go!"
The next second, Sarah locked the gate from the inside.
Outside the door, Megan scolded for a while. It was probable that someone passed by. Later, there was no sound.
Jacob, who bought spices from outside, happened to see Megan get in the car from afar.
He moved faster and hurried back to the old house to check the situation inside.
Inside the house, the ground was covered with water stains, as if it had just been splashed out, and there were also several strings of scattered footprints of water stains. Dylan coughed repeatedly in the room.
Sarah noticed Jacob's figure: "You're back."
"Your mother was here just now?"
"Yes."
At this time, Aunt brewed the medicine again, but Mr. Dylan refused to drink it.
"Grandpa, how can you eat osmanthus cake without taking medicine?"
Sarah endured the pain in her heart and knelt beside him.
Dylan gasped, his eyes closed, and turned to Sarah. "Sarah, I will die. Don't care about Grandpa. Love yourself and don't listen to your mother."
Dylan looked dying. Sarah took a breath. "Grandpa, don't talk nonsense. I will try to cure you."
No matter whether the doctor will treat him or not, she will try.
She stood up and sternly ordered, "Aunt, we can't drag on any longer. Please tidy up and we'll go to the hospital immediately."
Half an hour later, several people went to the hospital.
Dylan was immediately arranged for infusion.
"The patient's family members come out."
"OK." Sarah followed the attending doctor to the outside of the ward.
In the hospital bed.
Dylan, still conscious, looked at Jacob and said, "Come here."
