Chapter 2322
Henrick got up and walked towards her, comforting her softly. "Allie, what happened to Uncle Klein? Take your time."
Tears flowed down Alice's face as she sobbed, "My father had a car accident on his way back. According to the assistant's tone, it seems that that person deliberately hit my father's car. I don't know the situation yet. My father has been sent to the hospital."
Henrick narrowed his eyes. If anyone was in such a hurry to cause something to happen to Bert, it would be the Hansen family.
His expression was a little gloomy. He turned around and looked at his daughter behind them. "Juliet, can you stay at home? I'll go with your mother to see your grandfather."
Juliet's eyes were red as she asked, "Dad, will something happen to Grandpa? You were in an accident last time, but you still can't move your arm. I don't want anything to happen to you."
Henrick squatted down and kissed his daughter's forehead.
Then, he smiled and said, "Little girl, it'll be okay. I'll recover soon and Grandpa will also get better. Don't worry. You can just wait for us at home."
"Okay!" Juliet nodded hard, not letting her tears fall. Her parents would be worried about her if she cried, so she wanted to be strong. Even if her brother was not at home, she was not afraid at all. There were servants on the first floor, so she was not afraid at all.
Henrick and Alice went downstairs. He called Josue and asked him to drive them to the hospital.
A few minutes later, they got in the car and went straight to the hospital.
In the high-class VIP ward of the hospital in Lemmon City.
When they arrived, Bert had just been pushed out of the operating room.
Only Aubri was by his side.
Henrick suddenly understood that Alice's mother had called Allie after finding out that Bert was alright.
She didn't want her daughter to be sad, even a little bit.
"Mom, how is Dad?" Alice asked, crying.
Aubri smiled and said, "He's okay, he's fine. Don't cry. It's just a leg fracture. The doctor said that the operation went well and he'll be able to walk again in three months."
"Mom, you should have called me when Dad had the surgery. You were alone outside. You must have been so scared and upset!"
Aubri looked at her daughter crying and felt very distressed. "It's okay, Alice. Your father is fine, isn't he? Why are you in such a hurry to follow me?"
"Hmph! Mom, you're like this every time. Every time something happens to Dad, you'll wait for him to recover before telling me. As a daughter, I can't do anything for him. Every time, you stay by Dad's side alone. How useless am I as a daughter." Alice was very angry.
Her parents loved her very much and did not want her to be hurt at all.
Aubri patted her on the shoulder. She smiled and said, "Silly girl, isn't your father fine now? He's still under the effects of the anesthesia and has fallen asleep. When he wakes up tomorrow morning, he'll be full of vigor."
Alice pursed her lips and remained silent.
Henrick took a step forward and held her hand. "Allie, don't worry. Uncle Klein will be fine."
Aubri looked at Henrick and requested, "Henrick, go and find Bert's assistant and deal with what happened tonight."
"Okay, Aunt. I'll go and contact my assistant." Henrick gave Alice a comforting look and turned to leave.
After Henrick left, Aubri asked Alice to sit down.
Then, Aubri asked with a smile, "Have you reconciled with Henrick?"
Alice pursed her lips shyly and nodded. "Yeah!"
Alice took a deep breath and said, "Mom, you know that I have liked him since I was a child. Now that he finally fell in love with me, I still want to be with him."
"Mom, in this world, if you like someone, there is only a very slight chance for that person to like you too. Mom, I've waited for so long, and it's finally here."
Aubri's eyes turned red, and she pursed her lips and smiled. "Alice, I'm already very happy that you can think about it. From now on, you don't have to guard the two children alone, and you don't have to hide in the dark and cry."
"Just like today, with him by your side and accompanying you, you also have someone to rely on."
As parents, they just wanted to see their daughter's happiness.
"Okay! Mom, I know. I've caused you and Dad to worry about me for so many years. I'll be happy in the future, so you don't have to worry about me anymore." She smiled and wiped her tears. Her nervous mood was much relieved.
"Good!" Aubri gently hugged her. "Alice, you didn't choose the wrong person. Didn't we help you?. Last time, he was taught a lesson by your father. He didn't give up on you, did he?"
"Hmph!" Alice snorted proudly. "If he gave up just like that, I wouldn't even have let him see his children."
"Haha." Aubri smiled lovingly. "You have a child's temper."
Aubri glanced at her husband, who was lying on the hospital bed. Now, he could rest assured. Bert had always been worried about Alice.
Alice had always been very smart, independent, and confident.
When she was young, she had followed Henrick for her entire life and worked hard in order to be worthy of him.
She had become very outstanding.
Aubri didn't expect Alice to encounter such a thing seven years ago, which made her whole life turn dark.
Alice lived a lonely and painful life everyday.
Love was very beautiful and could make people happy. On the other hand, it could also destroy a person.
In the evening, Henrick came back.
Bert had also woken up, and Alice was chatting with him. The father and daughter chatted happily, and Bert laughed happily.
Bert's car had a lot of safety features. After being hit by another car, his knee had been injured, but other parts of his body were unharmed.
Seeing Henrick come in, Bert asked, "How's the matter going?"
Bert also guessed that the accident had been done by the Hansen family. That family used to be an ordinary family, but they were lucky enough to win the lottery. At that time, the shops in Bert's hands were all being rented.
The Hansen family took advantage of their prize money to rent all the shops, and then sub-let them out. The profits were also very good.
In the past ten years, they had also accumulated quite a bit of wealth.
That made the Hansen family one of the richest families in the Eastern District.
Unfortunately, they always liked to oppress others with their power.
Now that the shops had been taken back, Bert was going to find a professional to manage it himself. Who was afraid of making more money?
Wasn't the money all to be earned for his grandson and granddaughter?
Henrick smiled and said, "Uncle Klein, I've already dealt with it. It was indeed Henry Hansen who hit you with his car. He has already been arrested and confessed to it."
"He is very regretful now. He wants to see you and apologize to you personally."
Bert sneered and said, "He wants to see me because he wants to plead with me for mercy. I've seen so many people like him. Don't worry about him. I'll deal with him as I like." His expression was very ugly. If Bert let Henry go once, it wouldn't be as simple as a leg injury next time.
