On the way to the hospital, Ashton and Yinhai kept convincing him to return back, which was very unusual of them. After arriving at the hospital, almost everyone who arrived after them kept asking him what he was doing there which was even more weird and suspicious. The unwanted feeling made him feel sour and grumpy.
"We will talk about that later." Looking at Andrew, Zian added, "He is awake and is ready to talk.
After taking a deep breath, Andrew said, "Let's talk to him."
…..
Inside the room.
When everyone entered the room, the doctor was checking Pulos' vital signs.
"Everything is normal but he needs to stay here at least for a week under observation," the doctor inford,
After the doctor left, Andrew approached Pulos. "You are lucky to be alive."
Pulos slowly nodded his head. "I know."
"Why did you do that? Why did you take all the risk and leave that note?" Andrew inquired.
"I just did what I felt was right. I just followed my gut," he stated.
"Weren't things working fine for you? You were with Lawrence, you were safe and maybe you were happy too. So why did you take such a big step?" Zixin curiously questioned him.
Looking at him, Pulos smirked, "Who better than you knows your uncle? No one can ever be happy with him."
"If you know that then why did you join hands with him? Why did you save him? Why did you leave with him?" Zixin inquired.
Turning his head to the other side, Pulos sighed in dejection. "Because I had no other choice. I had to save Lawrence because he had once saved my life too."
Pausing for a while, he explained, "When I was young, I lost both my parents in a plane crash. After that, I had no one to look up to. I was lost, alone, dejected and had almost lost all my hope when Lawrence took with him. He took care of until I was big enough to take care of myself and after that, I left to live my own life. Then I started working under Andrew's father but his sudden demise shook as well."
Looking at Andrew, he added, "Thirteen year old weak, vulnerable and lost Andrew reminded of my old self. This is why I decided to help him just like Lawrence had helped ."
"When Zixin attacked Lawrence, he sohow managed to escape and contacted . For old tis sake and for what he had done for , I did not hesitate to help him. But I failed to understand what I was doing wasn't okay. Not only was I helping him but also doing everything he wanted to just like a puppet," he further explained.
"It was Lawrence who asked to take help from Andrew to deal with you all but when he refused to help us and joined hands with you all, I had no other choice but to leave with Lawrence." Taking a deep breath, Pulos closed his eyes. "That was another mistake I made. Lawrence kept making do inappropriate things and I did it no matter how I felt because I am grateful to him."
"Then what made you change your mind and take such a huge step?" Guang inquired.
"His initial plan was very simple, he just wanted to get rid of his nephew and take back everything. But later his plans kept changing, it started becoming more and more complicated. I was having a hard ti coping with them but I still complied with him." Pausing for a while, Pulos added, "Not too long ago, I heard from the guards that Lawrence is again changing his plan and this ti his target was Andrew."
Looking at Andrew, he exclaid, "How could I just stay back and let him hurt you? Before I left with Lawrence, I had told him not to hurt you or your sister but he was trying to do the sa thing. This is why I decided to warn you in advance."
"Since it wasn't wise to contact you directly, I decided to pass on the ssage through your girlfriend. I deliberately used confidential words for that note because you were the only one who could understand it. But before I could et you, Lawrence attacked ," he explained.
"Why did he attack you? Did he find out about the note?"
Scrunching his brows, Pulos answered, "Maybe he did, I am not sure about it."
Taking a deep breath, Andrew turned towards the boys. "Guys, can you please give us a mont?"
After everyone left, he took a step towards Pulos. "I don't know what to tell you."
"You don't have to tell anything, I deserve all your hate."
"I don't hate you Pulos. I can never hate you no matter what you do. Just like you will always be grateful to Lawrence, I will always be grateful to you. I will always have a soft corner for you which will never let hate you," Andrew stated.
"You don't have to be grateful to anymore. I saved your life back then and now you saved mine so we are even," Pulos remarked.
Without waiting for Andrew's reply, he added, "You have to be careful. With Lawrence around, your life is still at risk."
"I know."
"So what are you gonna do about it?" he curiously inquired.
Keeping quiet for quite so ti, Andrew answered, "I can do many things if you tell where he is hiding."
…..
Li base.
"But why not? Why am I being cornered?" Guang snapped at everyone present in the room.
"You are not being cornered or anything, this is just a mutual decision which we all took for your own good," Huang explained.
Getting up, Guang scoffed, "And what is good for ?" Without waiting for their reply, he snapped harder. "So according to you guys, if I stay at ho like a coward, it is good for ?"
