Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 155 Pure Luck

After I received Dad’s call, I hurried back to Dellmoor. On the way there, I called Dominic. However, as no one picked up, I stopped calling.

When I reached Dellmoor, I rushed straight to Dellmoor Hospital instantly, not daring to waste even a single second.

Tears streamed down my cheeks the moment I saw Grandpa lying on the bed with his eyes closed. Blood had seeped through the bandage that was wrapped around his head.

Sobbing, I asked Dad what happened. It’s only been a few days after Grandpa’s birthday. How did he get injured?

My dad replied that a burglar had snuck into the house at night, waking Grandpa up. When he tried to catch the burglar red-handed, he accidentally fell.

Luckily, not only was Grandpa was awakened but Sam, our neighbor, also woke up due to the noise.

After realizing that Grandpa had fainted, Sam immediately sent him to the clinic in the village for emergency treatment. Then, he contacted Dad, who sent Grandpa to Dellmoor Hospital.

If Sam had not done that, the consequences would have been dire.

Grandpa was fine now. However, as he was already quite old, he still had not woken up.

I was fuming with rage. What’s wrong with those burglars? Why did they choose to rob our house? There’s nothing valuable inside!

“Dad, did you manage to catch the burglar? Have you called the police? If it’s the burglar who injured Grandpa, we can sue him for causing harm. How despicable of him!”

Dad shook his head. “We called the police, but they said that it’ll be challenging catching the burglar. Let’s ask your grandfather after he wakes up. What matters now is that he’s safe and sound.”
