Chapter 454 Waking Up
As soon as he heard Derrick's voice, Charles smiled in satisfaction. Everything was now under his control.
The door opened and Bobby rushed to him happily. "Daddy, Grandpa Derrick has woken up. He is really awake."
Charles nodded, "Good. You two tell Great Grandpa the good news as soon as possible."
"Okay." Holding Nadia's little hand, Bobby ran towards Frederic's room.
His excited voice was heard by Frederic. For a moment, he thought he had misheard it, so he looked at Angelina in disbelief.
"Angelina, what is Bobby shouting out?"
"Father, what I heard was that Grandpa Derrick woke up." When she realized what she had said, Angelina's face lit up in
excitement. "Derrick is finally awake!" It was great news!
"Oh, really? Really?" In an instant, Frederic's voice trembled in excitement.
"I want to have a look. Angelina, help me up."
Angelina hurried to support Frederic.
At this time, Bobby and Nadia came in together. "Great Grandpa, I have good news for you. Grandpa Derrick has woken up."
"Great! Great! Let's go and have a look."
With the help of Hardy and Angelina, Frederic rushed to Derrick's room.
By that time, Charles was still standing in the corridor.
When Frederic passed by and saw that Charles looked so calm, he got angry. "Charles, Haven't you heard that your uncle was
awake now? Why do you look so unhappy? Do you want him to die?"
With a shrug, Charles replied, "Grandpa, you are wrong. Shouldn't I be the happiest one when he wakes up?"
"Well, well, I know what you are thinking. No matter what, I tell you, you have to keep your uncle alive, or else, I won't let you go!"
After giving him a warning, Frederic hurried to Derrick's room.
Meanwhile, Derrick was so angry that he really wanted to kill Joseph at that moment. He thought his son could give him nothing
but trouble.
"Well, Joseph, everyone will soon know that I'm awake. Humph, it's not easy for you to be the CEO of the TS Group. How can
you be fooled by two children? Where is your brain? I really doubt what's in your mind. Is it tofu pudding?"
He was disappointed by his son over and over again.
Now he was totally helpless.
Needless to say, Derrick felt so helpless. He couldn't understand why a smart man like him had such a stupid son.
Was Joseph insane or brainless?
"Dad, it's all your fault. Why are you blaming me? Can't you put up with it? Bobby is just a kid and doesn't have much strength.
You could've just pushed him away. How can you let him tickle you? Moreover, even if he tickled you, can't you endure? Humph!"
At this moment, Derrick didn't want to say anything, so he just smiled bitterly.
Heavy footsteps caught his attention and soon he heard Frederic's voice.
"Derrick, are you awake? That's great!"
"Your grandpa is coming. I'd better keep silent." As he didn't have any plan yet, Derrick quickly closed his eyes.
He guessed that if Frederic came, then Charles would also come.
What would happen when they all came here? His secret would be exposed.
And he should be responsible for the car accident, right?
All of a sudden, Joseph came up with an idea for his father. "Dad, you can play dumb. Yes, play dumb!"
"Humph, it turns out that you have a little brain!" Derrick thought Joseph's idea was not bad.
If he pretended to be silly, then he could talk nonsense, right?
And besides, a fool didn't have to take legal responsibility!
"Of course!" There was a hint of pride in Joseph's voice.
He was such kind of a man who was easy to be complacent.
"Derrick, are you awake?" Before anyone could see, Derrick wore his oxygen mask and closed his eyes again.
When Frederic came in and saw that he was not yet awake, he turned to Joseph.
"Joseph, tell me whether your father has woken up or not." His shaking hand was holding onto Joseph.
Glaring at Nadia, Joseph replied ambiguously, "Well... Yes, my father smiled just now, but now he doesn't speak. I don't know
what's going on."
This little girl's face was now full of joy. So the reason why she cried just now was... To help Bobby carry out their plan?
She was just a kid. How evil she was!
But Nadia was not scared of him at all. She even made a face at Joseph.
"What's going on? Where is the doctor?" shouted Frederic.
As if on cue, a doctor and nurses rushed in.
"Doctor, Derrick has woken up. Please have a look at him." His worried eyes were fixated on Derrick.
"Well, it's good that he has woken up. He didn't lose much blood. Besides, he has already had an operation. Normally, he
would've woken up by now. This is good news. We're relieved. Congratulations, Mr. Fu!" The doctor opened Derrick's eyelids and
said, "Mr. Fu, if you're awake, please say something. We will give you a general check-up later!"
Derrick was so angry that he didn't want to speak.
No, how dare he speak?
With gritted teeth, he made up his mind that no matter what the doctor asked, he would not say anything.
He should keep pretending to be unconscious.
The doctor looked at Frederic strangely. "Sir, what's wrong with Mr. Fu? Are you sure he was awake?"
"Yes, Bobby is a good boy. He never lies, right?" And then he glanced at Bobby, who turned to look at his daddy.
When their eyes met, Charles gave him a wink.
Bobby nodded. "Yes, I'm a good boy. I never lie."
"Could you tell me how did Mr. Fu wake up just now?" the doctor asked curiously.
As a response, Bobby jumped onto Derrick's bed.
It didn't take long for Joseph to realize that Bobby was going to repeat what he had just done. So he immediately stepped
forward to stop him. "Bobby, your Grandpa Derrick is sick now. How can you jump onto his bed?"
Charles held his arm to stop him. "The doctor is here. Don't speak."
"I... I'm afraid that my father will be tortured by you. You can leave now and let him have a good rest," Joseph pleaded.
"Joseph, now that your dad has woken up, we can't just stand by. As a doctor, I should be responsible for the patients," the
doctor advised.
"I... I'm warning you. Be careful. If you make my father silly, you will be liable for it!" Left without a choice, Joseph could only
show arrogance.
"It's better to be silly than to die!" Finally, Frederic had lost his temper. "Joseph, stop it. Just stand aside and watch."
Hearing that, Joseph had no choice but to stand aside obediently.
But he was so nervous and didn't know what would happen next.
After he calmed down, Frederic asked again, "Bobby, how did your Grandpa Derrick wake up just now?"
"Well, like this." As soon as Bobby finished his words, he began to tickle Derrick's body and his armpit.
It was easy to imagine what would happen next.
