Chapter 1212 Momo looked at the old woman asleep on the chair and then at the blanket by the edge of the bed when an idea occurred to her.
Climbing over to take the blanket, she could only use her free arm to carry the blanket since the other was injured.
She then cautiously blanketed Grandma Granger with it, who was so tired that she was not aroused from slumber.
At that, the door of the ward gradually opened...
Momo looked over and thought it was a nurse, but she saw a man instead!
The man met her gaze and a flash of panic appeared in his eyes. He halted and did not take a further step.
Drats! The two of them were asleep earlier! Why was she awake all of a sudden?
What could he do?
The innocent Momo, who thought the person went to the wrong ward, asked gently, "Uncle, did you enter the wrong room?"
The man's eyes gleamed with faint malice as he walked toward her. "Iâm not." "Huh?" Momo was baffled. "But this is my room." "I know."
The man stood by the bed and eyed Momo.
As Momo was still doubtful, he lowered his eyes and saw the jade ring on Grandma Granger's finger.
He noticed this from the moment he spotted the,.
This jade ring must cost a fortune!
Eyes filled with malicious intent, he reached out and took the jade ring from the elderly lady's finger before he turned and left-
professionally, swiftly.
The pain Grandma Granger felt at her finger awoke her from her sleep as she gazed down at her finger.
The ring was gone!
This was a guarding jade she begged for from India. This was supposed to keep her family safe!
She had never removed it!
Grandma Granger thought of what happened. She sensed something and instantly ran out to give chase...
Her legs failed her, however, as they went soft, and her weight caused her to fall onto the chair heavily.
In bed, Momo reacted. Without thinking, she got out of bed and started to run after the man.
After taking two steps, her arm knocked against the table by accident." Ouch...!"
Her face turned pale in pain.
Grandma Granger walked over with her numb legs and sighed, "Don't worry; donât chase after him. You won't be able to get it back."
She could call the police.
If the police did not manage to get back the ring, she could get another one!
Momo repressed her pain and asked Grandma Granger, "Grandma, you look anxious. Is the ring important to you?" "Itâs very important..."
Since her children had to go to the battlefield frequently, she went forward to beg for this jade ring to ensure her familyâs safety.
The elderly lady wanted to reassure the little girl, but she-biting her lip- ran out instead and ignored the throbbing pain.
Initially unable to react, Grandma Granger dragged her numb legs and slowly chased after her a moment later.
"Momo...donât go after..."
Momo seemed to be oblivious, however, as she went all out.
In the blink of an eye, the man was already outside.
Spotting him, the young girl hid by the side of the road. With a quick turn, she bit her tongue and rushed over.
When the man turned back to look at the hallway, something suddenly launched and grabbed his leg.
It was a little girl!
She gripped the manâs leg. "Give it back! Give me back my Grandmaâs ring!"
The man lowered his head and looked at the kid below him. He glared and kicked her away.
Momo's squishy cheeks inflated as she pouted in pain.
Regardless, she shrugged off the pain and grabbed the man by his leg to steal the ring from his hand!
Perhaps she was too strong-willed, but all she could think about was to get the ring back for Grandma Granger.
She tried her best and finally jumped up to snatch back the ring.
Enraged, the man clenched his fist and was about to punch her when he spotted Grandma Granger walking toward them.
With gritted teeth, he reluctantly made his escape to not get caught.
