Chapter 147 Bridget’s Uneasiness
Behind Greyson, two assistants pushed Roger’s ambulance out.
Greyson said, “Roger’s bleeding was stopped in advance by someone. Although the wound is deep, it didn’t hurt any vital part. The surgery is a success. He will be fine after good recuperation.”
Draxton glanced at the unconscious Roger, nodded slightly, and asked, “Where’s Bernard?”
On hearing the name of Bernard, Greyson’s face turned serious. “His leg is cataclysmically smashed. The surgery will be difficult. Even if the surgery is successful, there will inevitably be health hazards in the future.” Bernard might be a cripple for the rest of his life.
Draxton’s countenance fell at that, and his fists clenched unconsciously.
Greyson did not go on, nor did he dare to mention the murderer. Isabella said, “I’ll do the operation on him. I will try my best to cure him without any aftereffects.”
Greyson’s eyes lit up.
In fact, Isabella was a Miraculous Doctor.
Greyson was lost in memories. Many years back, he was shocked that the patriarch was to marry Isabella. Now, however, he began to have a grudge admiration for him for the decision, knowing he had made a wise decision.
“If so, Bernard will be saved. Isabella, I’ll be your assistant,” Greyson said excitedly.
He was also a famous medical genius in the medical field, but at this moment, he was more than willing and thrilled to be Isabella’s assistant.
Draxton looked at Isabella and nodded. “I’ll leave him to you.”
“Don’t worry,” Isabella said.
Isabella said to Greyson, “Get ready. We’ll start now.”
Greyson hurriedly nodded.
It was in the Riker family.
Patriarch Riker, Mrs. Riker, Terrence and his wife, and many other members of the Riker gathered around Bridget to appease her.
When the Riker family gave up on Bridget, Patriarch Riker feared that Bridget would feel estranged, but Bridget appeared rather calm at that.
She said, “You’re my family, after all. How can I blame you, grandpa and dad?”
Patriarch Riker felt very relieved and satisfied at that. He laughed, cheering that this granddaughter didn’t let
him down.
He said, “Bridget, when the Lockwood family know that you’re back, they will probably find trouble with you. again. Have you any idea how to deal with it?”
Bridget chuckled and said confidently, “Grandpa, don’t worry. The Lockwood family must be in a mess now. I’ve given them a huge surprise gift, haha.”
Patriarch Riker’s eyes lit up. He was so curious about what his granddaughter had done to the Lockwood family that he could not help but ask, “Just tell grandpa what it is.”
He was happy to see the Lockwood family suffer, but he was also a little worried. “They won’t find out it’s us, right?”
Bridget said, “Don’t worry, grandpa. I’ve done it quite neatly. They won’t find it out.”
Patriarch Riker laughed heartily and asked, “Bridget, what exactly did you do?”
Bridget looked at Patriarch Riker and chuckled. “A few Lockwoods will die soon, I’m afraid.”
At that Patriarch Riker’s countenance drastically fell.
Bridget noticed that and said, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I didn’t leave a trace. And since the Lockwood family has countless enemies, they won’t be sure it’s us.”

Patriarch Riker was greatly startled.
This granddaughter’s ruthlessness and boldness shocked him.
He was both afraid and proud.
Seated not far from them, Ethan looked at his family’s sinister faces listened to their flattering words, and felt overwhelmingly upset.
Bridget was Patriarch Riker’s granddaughter, but grandpa seemed a little ingratiating before her. Perhaps, he thought, even grandpa himself didn’t realize it. But from another perspective, he was just making use of her. This attitude was obviously shown towards outsiders.
Suddenly, Bridget frowned. A vague sense of uneasiness crept into her heart.
She stood up and said, “Excuse me, grandpa, dad, it suddenly occurred to me I need to go back to my room to deal with something.”
“Alright, alright. Go ahead, grandpa and dad will leave you alone,” Patriarch Riker said hastily.
“I want not only you, but Bridget to go overseas, so that you two can take care of each other there.”

Gerald said it in earnest.
Being dull and reserved, Gerald was but a cipher in the Riker family. Patriarch Riker did not think much of his second son.
Ethan looked at Gerald excitedly. “Dad, go with us then.”
Gerald shook his head. “I’m not leaving. I belong with the Riker family.”
Ethan had a complicated expression on his face.
Gerald said, “After your grandpa’s birthday, leave with your sister. Leave the rest to daddy. Your grandpa thinks too simply. What a family is the Lockwood family? How’s it possible they will be schemed against by him?”
After hearing these words, Ethan felt something within him had changed; his cold heart suddenly softened and became warm. While his clan was hopelessly toothless. His father, as well as his sister, was still there for him.
Greyson thought that Bernard’s injuries were so severe that the surgery would take at least a few hours, but he surgery ended in less than an hour.
When Isabella came out of the operating theater, Greyson was still in a daze.
Isabella calmly took off her gloves and said, “I’m going back to get some medicine. With those medicines, Bernard will recover better.”
Greyson nodded repeatedly.
Draxton heaved a sigh of relief and said, “I’ll drive you back. You tired?”
Isabella smiled. “Nope. To me, this is just a small surgery.”
None of them mentioned Bridget or the Riker family.
However, the next day, they received an invitation from the Riker family.
Patriarch Riker’s birthday was a week away, and the family invited them to the birthday party.
Isabella looked at the expressionless Draxton with a pair of incredulous eyes and asked, “Are we going there?”
Draxton looked at the invitation and said coldly, “Sure, I, as the patriarch of the Lockwood family, will give him. a big gift on behalf of our family!”
