Mr. Finn’s Spoiled Wife Plan

Levi took that book and felt it weighed a thousand pounds.

He narrowed his eyelids and his voice was deep: “Grandma, I’ve taken note of what you said, I’ll protect Ruby and Olivia, with me, I’ll never let anything happen to them.”

He rarely promised anything, and the few promises he had made in the past twenty years or so had been given to Ruby, and the old woman in front of him.

The old lady nodded, her face growing whiter and her breath weaker.

She couldn’t sit down and Levi even helped her to lie back down again.

“Grandma, don’t say anything, wait longer, Ruby will wake up in while, she will be sad if she doesn’t see you.”

The old lady’s voice weakened, “I know you are all good children, Ruby will be even sadder when she watches me go, why bother? I can’t wait and I don’t want to watch her shed tears in front of me, this child looks as if she doesn’t care about anything, but in fact what she values most in her heart is ‘love’, as her mother.”

As she spoke, her eyes gradually lost focus and wandered aimlessly around, looking despondent, as if she was remembering old times.

“When I first had my heart set on Logan, it was also because he was a man of valuing affection and love, all these years, he was buried in the capital and I never came to see him, it was my bad, but it’s okay, I’m going to see him soon.”

“Grandma ……” Levi had always been emotionally restrained, but now in this situation, his voice could not help but be mixed with hoarseness.

The old lady smiled weakly, “Don’t be sad, Levi, I’m just going to see my old man, I have one more thing to ask you, after I die, bury me and Logan together, he and I made a pact to live in the same bed and die in the same grave.”

Levi pursed his lips, looked back into the old lady’s expectant eyes, and finally nodded heavily.

It was then that the old lady gave a satisfied smile.

She looked sideways, reluctantly at Ruby, her gaze tracing over every inch of her face as her vision gradually became blurred.

After a long time, a tear fell at the corner of her eye, and she repeated it again, her voice close to nothing.

“Take care of Ruby.”

Afterwards, she gently closed her eyes.

Levi felt a lump in his throat and was silent for a long time before he let out a mute “hm”.

Denis came back from buying angelica and rushed in. When he saw the old lady who was no longer breathing on the bed, his eyes welled up and the bag in his hand fell to the ground.

“Rest in peace, Cara ……” he called hoarsely, kneeling beside the old woman’s bed, his head resting heavily against the head of the bed for a long time.

……

Ruby’s consciousness pulled in the abyss and woke up slowly.

Looking at the ceiling overhead, she froze for a moment before responding.

The next instant she sat up abruptly, rolled out of bed, and, not even bothering to put on her shoes, was on her way out.

At the right moment, the door opened and Levi walked in with the medicine: “You’re awake, drink the medicine first.”

But Ruby seemed not to have heard him, her gaze passing over him as she walked straight towards the door.

Looking at her whitening face, Levi put the medicine on the small table to the side and pulled her in quick move.

“Where are you going up to? You haven’t put on your shoes.”

“I’m going to see my grandma.” She interrupted in a cold voice, not a hint of expression on her face.

A bad feeling grew in her mind, driving her almost mad.

The corners of Levi’s mouth were pressed, he pulled her hand, not letting go, “Drink the medicine first, you have too much energy depleted in your body, drink the medicine to get better faster.”

Ruby did not drink and repeated, “I am going to see my grandma.”

She used force in her hands to break away from him, but failed.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

And the more he obstructed it, the more the unease in her heart grew, and she fought tooth and nail to get rid of him.

“Let go of me! Let go of me! I want to go see my grandma!”

As if she already knew the end, her face was as white as paper, her emotions were no longer tense, and in a rare moment she lost control and slapped his hand as if in a fury.

“Why won’t you let me see my grandma? What’s wrong with her? Let go of me! What’s wrong with Grandma?”

No matter how much she slapped, Levi did not let go, he stared at her, his eyes only filled with heartache, and suddenly reached out and took her in his arms.

“Ruby, you know, the last thing Grandma wants is to make you sad.”

Ruby against his shoulder, stunned for a moment, her eyes suddenly red.

She struggled like she couldn’t believe it and kept shouting “I want to see my grandma”.

But Levi was hugging tighter and tighter, his body was tense, and his heart was overflowing with pain.

He didn’t say it outright; he knew that she was so clever that she would have guessed it.

After tossing and turning for an unknown period of time, Ruby seemed to be tired, her body was drenched in sweat, and the hair scattered on the corners of her forehead was wet with sweat, and she suddenly stopped moving.

In the next instant, she suddenly raised her hand and grabbed the clothes behind Levi, clutching them tightly, almost with all her might.

“Grandma …… Grandma ……”

She finally cried out, as painfully as she had ever cried before, like a child who has lost a beloved toy, venting her heart’s grief with impunity.

Since her mother passed away, apart from Kevin, she had had only one relative, her grandmother, to love and care for.

All those years in F Country, if it wasn’t for her grandmother, she might not have made it.

She wasn’t really strong at all, she often felt tired, so tired that she wanted to fall back asleep and never wake up again.

It was her grandmother, even when she was ill, who kept encouraging her and giving her the motivation to carry on.

Her grandma who loved her so much was gone after all.

She didn’t know how long she had been crying, so long that her tears had dried up, her voice was hoarse, she had no energy left in her body, her head was dizzy and she was about to pass out.

Levi just kept holding her in his arms, sensing her physical condition, picked her up horizontally and lay with her on the bed.

“Better?” He asked, his voice gentle.

Ruby buried herself in his arms without saying a word.

Levi sighed helplessly, and he knew she was sad, it was her closest family who had passed away.

She didn’t want to talk and he just stayed silent with her.

Half an hour had passed, the medicine was cold and he didn’t care.

Another half an hour passed, Ruby squeezed her fingers tightly around Levi’s clothes and suddenly opened her mouth, “What did Grandma say before she left?”

When she opened her mouth, she realized that her voice was hoarse.

Levi frowned slightly and said in a warm voice, “A lot, do you want to hear it now?”

Afraid that she was still a bit overwhelmed, he asked tentatively.

Ruby closed her eyes after a few moments of resignation, only to feel them drying up, before nodding.
