Chapter 1286
Harry was the mainstay of the Lore Family because neither Lynette nor Grayson could manage the company successfully. Harry was the reason why they could still live a luxurious life with nary a worry. However, once Harry fell, it was only a matter of time before the family collapsed.
At that time, Lynette would lose her status as the young lady of a wealthy family and be poor. How could she fight with Sonia if she didn’t have anything? How could she win Toby’s heart, then? In fact, there was a high possibility that she might lose the chance to even see Toby!
Therefore, she would not let anything happen to Harry no matter what.
“Grandpa!” Lynette shouted his name anxiously, and tears streamed down her cheeks. Harry leaned against her for support; he slightly rolled his eyes back as he kept huffing and puffing as if he felt suffocated and would die at any given minute. Naturally, the two bodyguards were dumbfounded by such a scene as they both staggered backward hastily and waved their hands, indicating that they had nothing to do with Harry being like this.
Tom regarded them with blatant contempt. Tom looked nonchalant and composed compared to the two bodyguards’ frantic expressions. He merely stood there like a silent statue as he quietly looked at Harry without the slightest change in expression, nor did he have the intention to call the doctor over. It was simply because he had seen such a scene far too many times and had long been desensitized.
Frankly, he could tell at a glance whether Harry was really having trouble breathing or simply faking it. For example, at this moment, he knew that Harry was faking it, or at the very least, he was not in any serious medical condition. After all, Harry was extraordinarily skillful when it came to using his ‘illness’ as a tool.
There were several times in the past when Harry would go to Toby, hoping to get something from the latter. Once he realized that Toby would not budge, he would begin to put on an act of being sick, precisely like this. Regardless, once Toby agreed to his request, he would ‘recover’ immediately.
