Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 1063

This conversation came up because Owen and Howard had caught up with Gramps Hopper.

Gramps Hopper was so old that it was inconvenient for him to move. Besides, there were guards passing by in the yard from time to time, so it was not difficult forthem to know about Gramps Hopper's whereabouts specifically.

Hearing that Gramps Hopper was still angry, Howard and Owen looked at each other. Then Owen, who was the most doted upon by Gramps Hopper, comforted him. "Gramps, you've misunderstood. We didn't have the intention to laugh at you. To be honest, we're busy pitying you! Hiss...!"

Owen made such a hissing sound because Gramps Hopper had hit his calf with his crutch.

Hitting it once was not enough.

Gramps Hopper continued to hit him while angrily reprimanding him, "Pity me! Pity me!"

Owen had not flattered Gramps Hopper but irritated him instead. Deep in his heart, he was crying out in pain.

However, due to the training he had received and him being respectful towards Gramps Hopper, Owen did not dare to hide. He just stood there straight and let Gramps Hopper vented his anger.

But Howard was anxious looking at it.

Gramps Hopper was hitting Owen's injured leg, which had been shot by a gun. He could not help saying, "Dad! You've got Owen wrong!"

Hearing this, Gramps Hopper stopped for a while. He asked Patrick with a sullen face, "Then what did he mean?"

Howard immediately turned to look at Owen. Through his gaze, he was hinting him to say something nice to please Gramps Hopper!

Owen carefully moved his leg that had been hit. Although each of Gramps Hopper's hits seemed fierce, he actually controlled his strength. He did not feel much pain.

After making sure that he was fine, Owen said to Gramps Hopper who looked mad, "Gramps, the 'pity' that I said is actually referring to you doting too much on granny. Otherwise, how could she make such an unrealistic joke without caring about your feelings in front of everyone?

Of course, it's normal for a husband to dote on his wife. I'll also be like gramps in the future. Even if Nora is no longer glamorous and beautiful when she is at granny's age, I will always respect her and love her. Even if she occasionally make fun of me and will bring shame to me, as a man, I will never argue with her."

Well done!

Howard praisingly gave Owen a thumbs-up without Gramps Hopper knowing.

Gramps Hopper calmed down after hearing Owen's words especially when he mentioned about 'making such an unrealistic joke'.

Gramps Hopper stretched out his hand and patted Owen on the shoulder. Then he said in a calm and friendly tone, "Well said! Owen, it seems that bringing you by my side to teach you since young was the best decision that I've made. Otherwise, where else can you set up such accurate outlooks on life?"

Owen kept a straight face and said, "You're right, gramps."

"Let's go!" After a change of mood, Gramps Hopper said to his son and grandson with a faint smile, "You can take me around for a walk. I haven't been here for many years and I can't remember the way..."

It was strange. Hearing Gramps Hopper said that he could not remember the way made Howard and Owen feel sadder than when they were chasing his weak figure from behind him.

Time flew and it could not be recalled.

With unknown tacit agreement, Howard suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Gramps Hopper's hand, while Owen took over the crutch from Gramps Hopper's other hand.

Just as the three of them were about to walk along the cobblestone road, there suddenly came a voice from behind them that became louder and louder, "Daddy, daddy!"

Owen was stunned for a moment. When he turned his head, he saw his eldest son, Andrew rushing towards them with his short legs.

"Because..." Andrew wanted to say something, but the next second, he suddenly realized that

Gramps Hopper was the center of the topic just a moment ago!

He also recalled what Ashley had explained in his ear about what his great-grandpa could not do. So he swallowed the words he wanted to say and made up his mind. "Um, I'm talking about our head teacher! She's a strict female teacher. She has always punished Ashley who skipped her homework and cheated in exams to stand at the side of the blackboard!"

Oh... No!

He seemed to have uncovered the embarrassing things done by Ashley!

Andrew was shocked that his face turned pale. He was not worried about Ashley. After all, with her quick-witted character, she could easily get away from it.

The main reason was that... After Ashley got away from it, she must have guessed that it was him who had leaked the secret. Would he still be able to have a good life?

Andrew was experiencing thunderstorm but

Gramps Hopper had thought of a different level. "Is physical punishment that common in your class? How could this be? Howard!"

Howard was shocked. He quickly asked, "Dad, what can I do for you?"

Gramps Hopper said stubbornly, "Inform the board of directors of the school to immediately change the head teacher in Andrew's and Ashley's class!"

"Err..." Howard hesitated for a moment. Was it that serious?

Gramps Hopper made a dangerously questioning 'hmm?', and said, "Well, if the board is not willing to cooperate, The Hopper Family will immediately terminate its investment in that school!"
