Chapter 311: 0311 Heart Cold_1

Carol Sean’s tantrum didn’t seem like a big deal, but it involved American law.

She faced multiple charges and couldn’t be released without someone posting bail.

Since Olivia Johnson was handling the situation, she didn’t prioritize managing Carol Sean’s issue first.

Daisy Wood then relayed Edward Wood’s words to Olivia Johnson, but to her surprise, at such a moment, Olivia Johnson suddenly slapped Daisy across the face and said, "If he doesn’t want to go, can’t you?!"

Daisy had never been hit by Olivia Johnson before, and this was the first time in her life.

She covered her face, her eyes wide with the chill inside her heart endlessly surging.

Tears immediately sprang to her eyes as she yelled, "The one who did wrong is my brother, and now he won’t even visit grandpa, yet you still hit me? Do you still care about him?! Have you all gone mad? Just because he’s a son, does that mean you spoil him without limits?"

Although Daisy usually turned a blind eye to the unfairness Lucy Wood endured, she herself had hardly ever been treated so unfairly since childhood and couldn’t accept it at all. After shouting those words, she immediately ran away.

She was unwilling to deal with her brother’s issues anymore.

Let him rot for all she cared!

Seeing that Daisy also ran away, Olivia Johnson was stunned, trembling as she watched Daisy’s retreating figure and could only utter "You..."

She couldn’t articulate another word.

The Wood Family was wealthy; why couldn’t the children just hire a caretaker? Why did Daisy react so strongly?

Seeing his sister slapped from a distance, Edward Wood remained indifferent, as if nothing had happened, and came over saying, "Mom, hurry up and get grandma out of there, or just let someone else do it. We’re not exactly short on money."

Hearing him say this with his own mouth, Olivia Johnson suddenly didn’t know what to think.

She initially thought Daisy was deliberately speaking ill of Edward.

After all, coming to America was very much against her wishes.

Now that she heard it, she was at a loss for what to say.

If Edward treated his own grandfather this way, how would he treat his biological parents?

Olivia Johnson felt an unspeakable chill in her heart.

Seeing the look on his mother’s face, Edward realized he might have said something wrong and cautiously changed his tune, "Then forget it, Mom. How about I go with you to the hospital and see grandpa?"

He was currently in custody, allowed only to stay at home or go to the hospital if he filed a report in advance.

Elsewhere, he wasn’t permitted to go.

Although he was facing trial, he believed he would be fine since grandpa had assured him so, and now that he was out on bail, Edward felt everything should be okay.

He utterly failed to consider that without his father David Wood, his parents were utterly incapable of handling such matters.

When Olivia Johnson saw her son, she was somewhat dazed; it took her a while before she managed to say, "Okay."

Something inside her was slowly growing cold and alert.

Then, before they could even leave the house to feel any relief, Edward’s drug addiction suddenly hit him.

He was actively using drugs, and while he had been in prison before, nobody monitored him after being released on bail. And because the Wood Family had vouched for him, there were no mandatory measures. When Edward’s addiction kicked in, Olivia was at a loss.

There were no drugs in the house, and Edward was in painful withdrawal, almost acting as if he recognized no one. Olivia was unable to procure drugs for him no matter how capable she was, so with no other choice, she called the police station, hoping others could come up with a solution.
