The Battle Over Uncle's Inheritance

It was not until the evening that Alex showed up in Thomas's ward.

Helen and John were afraid that Thomas couldn't accept the fact that he had lost both his legs, and kept the result of the operation from him.

Seeing Alex coming over, Helen flared up.

"Alex! You finally remember that you have a father, huh!"

Alex scratched his head and felt embarrassed. "Aunt Helen, the client is too difficult to deal with. I've been so busy that I haven't slept for two days."

Helen raised her eyebrows and scolded, "Alex, thank you for your hard work. You're so hardworking that you could forget about your father."

Helen knew why Alex hadn't slept for two days, so she looked at him with disdain.

Helen believed in Buddhism and hated people who lied the most. She also disliked those who wallowed themselves in love and sex.

Thomas, who didn't know the truth, had just woken up. When he heard that his precious son was scolded by Helen, he immediately spoke up for Alex.

"Helen, why are you talking to the child in such a strange way? If you don't know how to speak properly, just shut it."

Thomas then turned to Alex. "Alex, I'm fine. I just fell. Don't listen to your aunt’s babble. Which client was it? Look at your dark circles. Go back and catch up on sleep!"

I instantly understood why, in my previous life, Thomas changed his will after he knew of Alex's return.

Alex was the only son of the Leonard family. Thomas would tolerate everything Alex did.

This was the privilege of being the only male descendant of the family.

Although I have the blood of Leonards, to Thomas, I was still an outsider.

Therefore, in my previous life, I was a fool. I deserved to be treated so unfairly.

Having her kindness regarded as malice, Helen became more furious and wanted to tell the truth.

"Thomas, do you know that Alex..."

However, John sternly stopped his wife, asking her to keep her mouth shut.

Thomas's attention was focused on Alex, so he didn't notice the small movements between Helen and John.

The father and son were putting on a family show of reunion.

Alex asked with concern, "Dad, what did the doctor say? Are you all right? If I knew that you fell, I would have come to take care of you as soon as possible. There would be no need for outsiders to tell me what to do."

Hearing this, I was extremely glad that I didn’t sign the operation agreement.

Otherwise, when Thomas found out that he had lost both his legs, he would vent all his anger on me.

In my previous life, even Helen blamed me for signing the agreement on my own and I also felt that it was my fault that Thomas lost his leg.

I felt guilt and that I should make up for my mistake, which was why I took the initiative to take care of Thomas after Alex went abroad.

Helen was smart. She knew that disabled Thomas would be a burden, so she didn’t hesitate to run away.

After Thomas was paralyzed, he became more and more moody.

In my previous life, I coaxed Thomas in different ways and gave up my postgraduate entrance examination. Instead, I found a job at an orthopedic hospital close to Thomas’s house so that I could take care of him.

When I was free, I would give Thomas massage and acupuncture. I told him that it was very likely that he would stand up again after a one-legged paralysis.

Such days passed year after year. It was not until the 10th year that Thomas finally regained consciousness in his leg and had hope of standing up!

At that moment, I felt that ten years of effort was worth it.

Thomas was so excited that he decided to make me his heir.

I didn't refuse Thomas's kindness because I felt that I was qualified.

Who would have thought that Alex would come back with his children when Thomas was having his will notarized?

Alex played a filial son and asked his children to call Thomas "Grandpa" a few more times. Thomas then forgave Alex with tears in his eyes.

"Son, it's good that you're willing to come back. The Leonard family now has descendants!"

Thomas then summoned his lawyer and wrote another will right under my nose. He then handed the bank card with all his savings to Alex.

At that time, I firmly believed that Alex was an ungrateful person. I thought of how Thomas would have to spend a lot of money on rehabilitation in the future, and I knew that if Thomas gave all his savings to Alex, who would then turn his back on all of us, he would live a miserable later life.

So I kindly reminded Thomas to think twice.

As a result, he humiliated me with a reward of 2 dollars per day.

According to the experience of my previous life, Thomas missed the best time for surgery because none of us signed the agreement in time. He wouldn't be able to stand on his own for the rest of his life.

Thomas comforted his son, "What could happen to me? I can't be paralyzed merely because of a fall! It's all a trick that doctors play to earn money."

"Dad, I'm still worried. I'll ask the doctor."

Thomas was instantly moved to tears by Alex's consideration.

Helen and I didn't stop Alex.

We only hoped that Alex wouldn't run away after knowing the truth.
