Chapter 764

Since Rube was not a common name in the small village, he had named himself Robin.

Rube nodded. “I’ve brought you a gift since you helped me back then. Do you want to come to my car to have a

look at it?”

Teddy knew that Rube was Arielle’s friend, so he trusted the latter a lot. He nodded excitedly and said, “Sure! But I

have to inform my mom about it first.”

“Okay. Also, I’m bringing you to the town for dinner tonight. (This will be daily updtaed at

www.m.techkasuhal.com)Tell your parents that I’ll send you home tomorrow.”

“Okay! Yeah! I’m going to the town!” With that, Teddy ran into the house cheerfully.

A moment later, Teddy walked out while holding a woman’s hands.

She was Teddy’s mother, and her name was Josee Crawford. As soon as she saw Rube, she lowered her head

apologetically, “Robin, thank you for taking him out, and I’m sorry for troubling you.”

“Don’t mention that. Teddy is an adorable and considerate kid. (This will be daily updtaed at

www.m.techkaushal.com)I’m happy to take him out and have some fun.”

“Thank you.” Suddenly, Josee started coughing intensely after saying that.

“Are you okay?” Rube looked at her with concern. “Your sickness seems to become worse than before. My b-boss

knows a little about medical skills. How about you come with us to town? I can ask my boss to take a look at you.”

Josee waved her hand to reject him. “It’s okay. That’s no need for that. I’ve had it for a long time. Moreover, we

can’t afford to pay for that. I don’t want to waste your boss’ time.”

“It’s free of charge.”

However, Josee was insistent. “Thank you, but I really don’t need that. I didn’t get to persuade that stubborn man

for you, so I shouldn’t accept your offer for granted.”

Everyone in Teddy’s family had signed the petition, except for his father. He used to work for a long time under the

Southalls, so he was reluctant to accept that request.

“Okay, then. But, if your situation gets worse, you have to go to the hospital as soon as possible,” Rube replies

helplessly.

Josee got so grateful that her eyes became teary. “I know that you’re asking us to sign the petitions for our own

good. I’ll try my best to persuade him.”

“Thank you.” Rube nodded as he turned to Teddy. “Shall we go now, Teddy?”

“Okay.” Teddy waved at Josee. Then, he held Rube’s hand and left together.

Josee watched Rube and Teddy walk away before going back into the house, coughing.

Right then, Teddy’s father, Nigel Lowe, came back to the house for lunch.

Upon scanning the surroundings, he asked, “Where’s Teddy? Is he still gathering coals?”

“He has gone to the town with Robin. Robin will send him home tonight.”

Most of the villagers were simple men. Hence, Nigel was not worried that Rube would do anything bad to Teddy.

However, he frowned and asked angrily, “How can you let someone take your son away like

that?”

“What do you mean by that? Teddy hardly gets to enjoy himself in the town. You’re his father. Can’t you think more

about Teddy?”

Nigel fell into silence.

Josee took the opportunity to continue with her sentence, “You should reconsider signing the petition. (This

will be daily updtaed at www.m.techkaushal.com)Hasn’t Robin talked to us about that? As long as we work together,

we can still get the salary they owed us for years.”

Nigel continued to remain silent. He was an honest and obedient man. He had been working under the Southalls for

years, so he could not bring himself to go against them.

Josee was anxious upon seeing his reaction. “Can you at least think for Teddy and me? Do you want me to end up

like our daughter? We could not even afford her funeral after she died from her illness!”

Nigel took a puff of his cigarette and said, “Let’s wait for a little longer. As soon as Mrs. Southall’s funeral is over, I’ll

try to claim my salary with Rick. I-If he still refuses to pay us, t-then we’ll discuss it again.” It sounded like he was

willing to sign the petition now.
