Did you push old Mr Louis down?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I shout at her.<\/p>\n<p>Its not right for her to do so even though old Mr Louis has played hard on her. How could she do this when she knows old Mr Louis doesn\u2019t have much time left?!<\/p>\n<p>But why did they quarrel on the second floor? I remember Sabina lives downstairs.<\/p>\n<p>If they had been on the ground floor, it would have not happened.<\/p>\n<p>Being shocked for a few seconds, Sabina turns around and explains in a trembling voice, &#8220;It\u2019s not me, it\u2019s really not me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But if not her, who else could it be?<\/p>\n<p>For the moment, there is no time for this, and it\u2019s meaningless to find fault. The most emergent is to save old Mr Louis.<\/p>\n<p>I make an emergent call to the hospital and also tell Frances to let him come back quickly.<\/p>\n<p>When I call him, I heard Hilda\u2019s sweet voice in the phone. It seems that she doesn\u2019t want to let him go.<\/p>\n<p>Though I trust Frances, it still makes me feel uncomfortable when they spend time together.<\/p>\n<p>I sit on the ground but don\u2019t dare to move old Mr Louis, then I go upstairs to feed Earl.<\/p>\n<p>After feeding, I go downstairs with Earl in my arms.<\/p>\n<p>Old Mr Louis will be delivered to the hospital soon. I should go with Earl by my side.<\/p>\n<p>Ambulance comes soon and old Mr Louis is carried in the car.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t do it. I can\u2019t pretend that I don\u2019t care at all.<\/p>\n<p>Frances nods and walks in after the stretcher.<\/p>\n<p>Then all of us are waiting worriedly outside the operating room.<\/p>\n<p>Frances strolls backward and forward outside the operating room, looking very anxious.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, perhaps it\u2019s because he can\u2019t control his emotions any more, he comes over and shoots his angry sight at Sabina.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mom, what the hell happened? Why did you quarrel with grandpa again?!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He found I visited your father\u2019s grave, so he was angry and warned me not to go. I followed him to the second floor then we argued at the stairs. Later, old Mr Louis got too emotional and excited and fell backwards. I reached out and tried to pull him, but I didn\u2019t make it due to my troubled legs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She doesn\u2019t look like telling a lie. But Frances\u2019 anger doesn\u2019t diminish at all.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know dad is grandpa\u2019s sore point, so why did you quarrel with him about dad? Can you sleep well if grandpa is not fine?
