After Divorce: Remarried to a Tycoon with Twin Babies-Chapter 107: Is Vivian Forcing Grandma to Her Death? The Grant Family Falls Apart!

Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Is Vivian Forcing Grandma to Her Death? The Grant Family Falls Apart!

Professor Andrews shook his head, "I didn’t see."

This matter seems shrouded in mystery.

Vivian Sinclair looked up towards the entrance of the operating room, only to find herself locking eyes with Caleb Crawford.

He seemed to have been watching this direction all along, and when Vivian suddenly looked up, it startled him a bit.

Soon, he nodded towards Vivian with an apologetic expression.

He seemed quite sorry for his wife and daughter’s attitude today.

Vivian also nodded back at him, then turned to ask Professor Andrews, "Professor, why didn’t any of you bring family members today, but Master Fiona brought her husband and daughter?"

Professor Andrews explained, "Mr. Crawford did not accompany us to the event."

"It was just that he happened to be in Orchardia as well."

"After the incident, while we were still waiting for the ambulance, he squeezed through the crowd and saw us, which was when he discovered everyone just happened to have arranged to meet at the same place."

Such a coincidence?

"What about Annette Crawford? She seemed to know something, otherwise, she wouldn’t be so convinced it was my fault."

Professor Andrews shook his head, "This... I don’t know either."

"Vivian, are you suggesting this is related to..."

"But how is that possible?"

"At the time of the incident, Teacher Tris looked more like an accidental fall."

"Indeed, there was no one else seen around him."

Vivian didn’t know.

But she had a nagging feeling something about this was odd.

Although Summer Dunn hadn’t pursued art, she was a strong woman in her life.

Hearing these words, she too began to harbor doubts about her father’s accident.

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated."

"Otherwise, once Dad wakes up, everything will be clear."

Tina Archer hesitated for a moment and then spoke up, "Should we first check the surveillance?"

"Otherwise, if it really wasn’t an accident, I’m afraid someone might tamper with things..."

Vivian Sinclair: "Then it’s a job for your Officer Rivers."

Tina Archer blushed slightly, giving Vivian a gentle nudge with her shoulder, "What do you mean my Officer Rivers?"

"He’s just my blind date! We haven’t even started anything yet."

Jasmine, who’d been waiting by the side, hurriedly interjected, "Miss, Miss Archer, please be gentle."

"Sister Vivian, she, she also needs protection..."

Tina Archer’s eyes darted over, "You’ve been acting strange today."

"You’ve been sticking to your sister Vivian, your protective urges are over the top, what’s wrong with her?"

"Is she sick?"

Jasmine didn’t dare to mention Vivian’s pregnancy.

But she looked very tense.

Vivian didn’t want to discuss her private matters at this time, so she diverted the topic, "So, Officer Rivers is indeed a responsible and good policeman, because at your word, he dared to defy his superior’s orders last time and intended to rescue me at Phoenixia alone..."

Tina Archer was thus fooled.

Soon, Jasmine’s delivery arrived.

Vivian ate quite a bit.

The others didn’t have much of an appetite.

It seemed Fiona was displeased with Vivian still having the mood to eat at this time.

"Truly heartless!"

Greenshire: "After all, she is still young."

"Fiona, were you serious about cutting off your mentorship with Vivian today?"

Fiona, after some long contemplation, nodded firmly.

"Let’s end it."

"Between us, it’s just a troubled fate."

After saying this, she closed her eyes, clearly unwilling to delve further into the topic.

Summer Dunn herself had no objection to Vivian eating outside the operating room.

Eating when hungry, as her dad often said.

Besides, one can’t resist hunger, it’s a basic need.

Who could go against their stomach?

She just lacked the appetite, moreover, knowing Vivian, Tina, and Jasmine had initially planned to meet for lunch but came to the hospital without having lunch.

Her father’s surgery was still uncertain in duration, continuing to wait without replenishing energy, few could persevere.

Sure enough, before long, those respected figures by the operating room couldn’t bear it any longer.

Each with aging bodies couldn’t stand too long, yet felt embarrassed to sit over with Vivian and them.

Until exhaustion and thirst got the better of them.

They persisted for little over an hour before most began to excuse themselves to leave.

"Summer, let us know if there’s any news about your dad."

"Yes, child, reach out if you need any help."

"I’ll be waiting for good news from you at home, alright?"

Summer Dunn didn’t make it difficult for the elders, seeing everyone off before Fiona and Caleb Crawford approached together. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Summer, I also have a significant share of responsibility in this matter."

"If your father and I hadn’t argued over those trivial matters, he wouldn’t have gotten so upset... and wouldn’t have suddenly fainted and fallen down the stairs."

"For this, Auntie Rhodes is truly sorry to you."

Although Summer had her suspicions, she wasn’t foolish enough to voice them.

She just nodded with reddened eyes and said, "I understand, Auntie Rhodes."

"No one wanted this to happen. It was just an accident."

Before Fiona Rhodes left, she didn’t look at Vivian Sinclair again. She just pulled Caleb Crawford along as if avoiding something and quickly left.

After everyone had gone, Summer, seemingly having a thought, suddenly said, "Dad always said at home that Auntie Rhodes was somewhat cruel to Vivian back in the day."

"But when I asked for more details, Dad wouldn’t tell me anything."

"From today’s standpoint, Auntie Rhodes’ attitude towards Vivian does indeed seem strange."

"I remember back then Dad and Auntie Rhodes competed fiercely for Vivian’s extracurricular time, trying hard to become the number one in Vivian’s heart."

"But then Auntie Rhodes suddenly changed. She even left everything in the country behind without warning and took the whole family abroad."

"Isn’t that strange?"

"Vivian, do you have any clues yourself? Do you know why Dad and Auntie Rhodes argued about you?"

Vivian Sinclair was silent for a moment, then shook her head.

She too found it strange.

But she truly had no knowledge of the inside story.

The surgery for Tris lasted a full seven hours.

During that time, Vivian Sinclair felt a bit of backache, so she went to the car to rest for a moment.

Soon after, she returned to wait with Summer.

Summer signed three critical condition notices.

As she was finding it harder and harder to hold on, the door of the operating room finally opened.

Seeing this, Vivian Sinclair and the others immediately got up and rushed over.

Dean Caldwell announced gravely, "The surgery was very successful, but because the patient is older and the injuries are severe... we currently don’t know when the patient will wake up."

Though his life was saved, such a result was indeed not good news.

Tris was directly moved to the intensive care unit without Vivian and the others even getting to see him.

After leaving the hospital and saying goodbye to Summer, a weary Vivian Sinclair returned home.

The next day, when Vivian Sinclair woke up, she saw a major news headline.

The chairman of The Grant Group, Theodore Grant, had a sudden heart issue and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment!

The Grant Group’s stock plummeted.

The Grant Group’s president, Austin Grant, urgently announced the delisting of The Grant Group...

After being listed for just over a month, The Grant Group had to hastily delist in disgrace.

It was clear that The Grant Group faced numerous crises over the past month and ultimately couldn’t withstand them.

The Grant Group was in deep trouble, causing The Grant Family to fall apart completely.

Upon seeing this news, Vivian Sinclair’s mood improved.

In that way, the more troubled The Grant Family was, the smoother her divorce would be.

She called the hospital and learned that the teacher’s vital signs had stabilized and were just waiting for him to wake up, which made her feel a sense of relief.

"I must retrieve Teacher’s belongings from The Grant Family."

Thinking of the tea set, Vivian Sinclair quickly got up, found her property deed and the bracelet Old Madam Grant gave her, and went to the hospital.

Old Madam Grant was in poor spirits.

She seemed even older and more haggard than during her previous birthday party.

Clearly, she hadn’t been told about her son being taken to the hospital; when Vivian Sinclair saw her in the garden, Mrs. Archer was pushing her for a walk.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have the mood to bask in the sun at such a time.

Upon seeing Vivian Sinclair, Old Madam Grant’s emotions finally rippled, her eyes lighting up, "Vivian!"

"My dear granddaughter-in-law, you’ve finally come to see Grandma."

"Good child, come here—"

Vivian Sinclair walked over, while Mrs. Archer wore a wary expression, "Young Madam, you..."

Dr. Archer had already shared some of the recent happenings in their life with her mother.

While not told everything, enough was shared for Mrs. Archer to be wary of Vivian Sinclair.

Only then did she realize that this Young Madam of The Grant Family wasn’t as easy to manipulate as Old Madam Grant thought.

Nor was she so naive.

That’s why Mrs. Archer felt tense and somewhat defensive.

But given that she and her son were somewhat in Vivian Sinclair’s hands, Mrs. Archer couldn’t risk offending her openly and could only plead with her eyes for Vivian not to reveal Theodore’s condition.

Vivian Sinclair had no intention of rubbing salt in the wound.

She walked over and simply handed what she had to Old Madam Grant, "Some things should return to their rightful owner."

"I also wish to ask for the return of my belongings, that set of tea sets from Teacher Tris. It was originally taken by Austin from me, returning it shouldn’t be too much to ask, right?"

After speaking, Vivian Sinclair stepped back. When Old Madam Grant opened the bag she handed over and saw the bracelet and property deed inside, she understood her intentions.

Old Madam Grant’s face turned pale, "Vivian, do you really want to do this?"

"Do you truly want to be so heartless?"

"Wasn’t Grandma good to you?"

"Grandma is willing to give everything in The Grant Family to you and the two children you’re carrying. Even though Grandma used some means to get you to marry into The Grant Family, it was only because she liked you!"

"Why must you take it so far?"

"Do you want to drive Grandma to her death!?"
