Chapter 1184
Margaret did not refute as tears kept flowing down her face. She didn't know what to say. He was right.
It was Margaret who made the last call.
However, there was nothing she could do about it.
If she had planned it from the start, she would not have encouraged him to fight for the Russell family.
That way, maybe none of this would have happened.
In the beginning, when Hugo said that the Russell family must be handed over to Alexander, Margaret
was unhappy.She even argued with Hugo over it.
Now, it was too late for any regrets.
If only she had listened, she wouldn't have blindly spoiled her son like this.
That way, maybe things would have had a different ending.
However, no one could turn back time.

Celine came in and immediately rushed over to push Ralph aside in shock.
"What are you doing here?! Don't you think you've done enough damage?!"
"I've done enough damage?" Ralph sneered.
"She was the one that hurt me! Y-You're an accomplice! Why are you here pretending to be the bigger
person? Didn't you encourage us to get a DNA test? Weren't you the one who said we should all take a
test? None of this would've happened if it weren't for you!"
Upon getting scolded, Celine's face turned gloomy. Her lips twitched before she grumbled, "I didn't tell
you to drive Alexander out of the Russell family. What you've become today is all your fault. You can't
blame it on others."
"Haha, fine! I'll take the blame while you continue playing a good Samaritan."
He threw his head back and laughed as tears filled his eyes.
"This is how my sister is, then.All right, great! How wonderful!"
"Ralph..."
Margaret was starting to get emotional, which caused the instrument on her to start beeping.
Seeing this, Celine immediately stepped in.
"You should leave.Look at how you're provoking her again. Are you trying to kill her?"
However, he continued to stand there without a word.
Ralph gritted his teeth and clenched his fists as he watched the old lady try to reach out to him.
Margaret kept trying to stretch her hand further to try and hold him, but Ralph remained unmoving.
Although he was not very far away, it was a huge struggle for her.
Soon, doctors began to rush in, and at that moment, Ralph turned and walked out without looking back.
When Alexander received the news and rushed to the hospital, Margaret was still in a coma.
Her emotional instability, coupled with Ralph's provocation, caused her physical well-being to

The doctor said that her organs were also starting to fail with her age and that they should be prepared
for what might happen. "Be prepared for the worst!"
Alexander understood what those words meant.
Despite this, the thought that his grandmother might pass away at any time still brought discomfort to
his heart. He looked at her through the glass window of the ICU door.
It seemed like she had aged a lot in just a few days.
Her hair was now fully white, and the wrinkles on her face had deepened.
Who would have believed that not so long ago, she was still motivated by rage to find flaws in
Alexander and aid Ralph in obtaining the secret handbook? Life was really unpredictable.
They might have been safe and sound one moment, and then in danger the next.
Alexander was standing motionless outside the door when he felt a warm and soft hand in his palm.
When he turned his head, he saw Lily looking up at him.
The corners of his lips raised as he flashed her a smile, indicating that he was fine.
However, the fatigue behind that smile still seeped through, and she knew that he was not okay.
"Grandma will be fine," she comforted him.
