WITCHES ON EARTH

WITCHES ON EARTH
Chapter 8: A RAY OF HOPE


"Uncles and Father are you here too?"


Ruby returned to the ward and saw a room full of people. Men and women, standing up one by one, said nothing.


However, the faces of these people were rather gloomy, and no one answered, only nodding. Ruby didn't know if she was hallucinating or not, but she felt that everyone looked at her strangely.


In the hospital bed, an old man was lying down. At first, he closed his eyes and did not care about the people around him. Hearing Ruby's voice, she immediately got up and gestured for the person next to her to step aside.


“Ruby, come!” That loving expression was not hidden.


"Grandfather!" Ruby also held the old man's hand with a smile on her face.


Seeing this gentle scene, a trace of gentleness appeared on his grandfather Joshua's face. Opposite him, the uncle and aunt looked on in disdain.


“Omong-by the way, grandpa! I met a drug dealer and said that the medicine can cure your illness, so I bought two, you can see it.” Ruby said happily, taking out two little bright potions.


“What medicine is it? Those two doses can cure my father's illness? How is it possible!” Before her grandfather spoke, Aunt Ruby had already spoken, in a cruel tone, “Ruby, How dare you buy the medicine you bought from a con artist for your grandfather? I really don't know what's on your mind! ”


The tone of the last sentence was very low, but the murmur was enough to be heard by everyone in the ward, and it was full of insults.


Ruby's face reddened, her heart angry, she turned to look at Daniel behind her, and realized that she had betrayed him.


No wonder when I entered the door just now, I felt that everyone's eyes were a bit strange.


In fact, Daniel did not intend to betray Ruby, but they initially made an appointment to see Grandpa Joshua and Daniel call Aunt Ruby after getting out of the car.


Aunt Ruby, who was also Daniel's cousin, called Daniel and asked. Ruby happened to be in the bathroom at that time, and Daniel explained a few words casually. Unexpectedly, her Aunt would use this matter as a weapon to attack Ruby. If Daniel knew this, he wouldn't say much, and it caused Ruby to feel disgusted with him.


"Ruby, that doesn't mean we're talking about you, you have to think more about what you're doing. You know it's a scam, and you give 200,000 Hax. We don't care about 200,000 Hax, but your attitude towards doing anything at will, how can you be so immature?"


The one who spoke this time was another Aunt Ruby, who never spoke.


Old man joshua frowned after hearing this. After Aunt Ruby hangs up the phone from Daniel, she tells everyone about Ruby buying drugs from a con artist as a joke. Unexpectedly, this is used as an excuse to insult her grandson.


Joshua has only two grandchildren one man and one daughter, insulting Ruby means insulting Joshua. Seeing that Joshua's time was near, their family assets needed to be distributed, and the struggle to do that naturally was exhausting.


This was also because Joshua was worried about being very concerned about his condition, otherwise, with his wisdom, it would be impossible to do this kind of thing.


take a deep breath. It seems that today, aunt Ruby is not afraid to do disgusting things in Joshua's eyes. It is true that Joshua spoiled Ruby, but he would not tolerate the risk of damage to the great cause of the next generation of the Earnest family .


"Little ruby, it is inevitable to gain some losses. This is also because your Aunt is worried about her family. Ruby, you have to talk about this matter to your uncles and aunts, first, and the kids have to understand it better."


His Uncle's words seemed sincere, but the person who was observant towards the surroundings could see it, and this was the most cruel thing.


Russell is Ruby's older brother. When a large family chooses an heir, it depends not only on the next generation, but also on the next generation as well, this is related to the long-term legacy of the family.


Joshua's face was ugly, but indisputable. Her grandson had done something wrong, and the fact was in front of her at this moment.


Ruby was an intelligent person and was naturally aware of her grandfather's situation. I didn't expect that I made such a big mistake, and this small act brought such a big problem to my Grandfather, I didn't think that I was making such a big mistake, and I can't help but feel so guilty.


"How do you know that I've been deceived? Maybe this drug will work...." The voice became smaller and smaller, explained Ruby herself also did not believe the drug would be effective.


"Effective? What joke! There are so many medical institutions in the United States that can do nothing. And this little drug can cure him?."


"Yes! If anyone dares to joke about grandfather's health, I'll be the first to refuse!"


“…”


Despite Ruby's last sentence, all of her uncles and aunts opened their mouths to insult and ridicule her.


Originally Daniel came here because he wanted to take the opportunity to visit the old man to get closer to Ruby. If he knew the outcome, he would not have come no matter what.


The more he thought about it, the more angry Daniel was at his mouth, Daniel did not hate his stove-top mouth, but began to hate Max. If not for that fake drug dealer, how could he be so humiliating right now?


"Shut up!" The voice was not loud, but it sounded throughout the room, Everyone was instantly silent.


The smile on Old Joshua's face just disappeared, and it was very gloomy. He opened his mouth to say something, but sighed.


Although Mr. Joshua loved his granddaughter Ruby very much, but when faced with such a big problem as the family legacy, he still had to think about it long-term, not just relying on his own ego.


Looking at her grandson with red eyes, she could not help but feel a little depressed. With a smile on his face:


"Ruby, give Grandpa the medicine!"


"It...Grandpa, you can't take it. It's..." After everyone talked about it, Ruby also realized her carelessness.


“No problem! No matter how bad the situation is, the most important thing is that I will die soon. After all, my old bones won't be able to last for several months. If it works, then I'll be cured soon. Love it to Grandpa here." Old grandpa Joshua's tone was weak.


His uncle and aunt wanted to say something, but Joshua's grandfather glared back at him.


"i know my own body.I have seen so many great hospitals and good doctors at home and abroad. If there's any hope, I'll do that, I also know the conclusion of the Harrington Medical Institution, right? only live for three months"


Joshua's grandfather's words made all his brothers stagnate. All of his uncles and aunts agree to hide the matter from joshua's old grandfather, but they don't expect Joshua's grandfather to know about it.


"Grandfather ..." Ruby gasped, and her grandfather had already swallowed the medicine.


Old grandfather joshua did not think this medicine would be effective, nor did he think about its side effects.


His uncle and the others no longer stopped him.


As for this potion will it be effective? They don't even think about it.


How could they believe that bang messi lives in the condet rather than believing that a small potion can cure his grandfather.


However, what happened next made their eyes widen.


"What de hek!"


The moment the potion seal was opened, the seal applied by Max's magic was broken, and a light radiated.


"WHATWAS...?"


Surrounded by the sound of surprise.


“Is it because my head is dizzy, why does it feel like the bottle cap just glowed?” Aunt Ruby rubbed her eyes.


“Is that solar reflection?” This is the voice of her aunt.


All silence...!!


Grandpa Joshua's heart was hot, as the one taking Max's medicine, he could see clearly, it was not at all a reflection of sunlight. With such a magic potion, who could guarantee it would not work?


At first Grandpa Joshua was in disbelief because of his deadly illness that had made him lose hope, and the glimmer of hope within him bounced back.


Old grandfather joshua saw that his hands were trembling slightly, so he picked up the potion, "Excellent..!".
