Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 248

Before Tassach replied, Mrs. Conduibh held Gracie's hand and forced a smile. "Gracie, you must be tired of taking care of him for so many days. I'll cook for you tonight. You two will spend the rest of your life with each other. You don't have to stay here and put up his bad smell."

Those words helped Gracie feel better.

Mrs. Conduibh took other people out of the ward, leaving Old Mr. Conduibh and Tassach in it.

Old Mr. Conduibh sat down on the bed and uttered straightforwardly, "You were being so irrational just now. I've met enough able people throughout my whole career, and I wouldn't be able to provoke Zack. How dare you say that to his wife while he was here? Does Ophelia really matter that much to you?"

Tassach nodded and said, "I can't help falling in love with her, grandpa. I'm afraid I'll be falling for her for the rest of my life. I was in a coma during the past few days, but I still had consciousness. I knew you were worried about me, and I could hear what she said to me. She said I'll be the godfather of her child, and she would give me a chance to make up for my escape in the past. That was when I decided that I would exert all my energy to wake up, so that I could protect her better."

Old Mr. Conduibh didn't look as excited as he used to be at those words. On the contrary, he sighed and asked in guilt, "Tassach, will you blame me for that? I would never have driven her away if I had known you loved her so much. I've been watching how you spend all your time and life on work for these years. You don't seem to be interested in love anymore. Sometimes when I wake up at night, I'd regret having intervened in your relationship, or you could have already been married or having a child... I might have a great-grandson now."

Tassach closed his eyes and hid his strong mood swing.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes already looked peaceful.

He said in a low voice, "I once hated you for that, Grandpa. I hated my parents, too. The time has taken part of my hatred away, but deep inside me, there was still something that I couldn't get over. There were many times at night when I standing by the with a cigarette, the shining neons took my memories back. I sometimes wondered if it was because of your interference or my weakness and flinch, maybe both. I could've worked harder and been mature, that way we might be able to end up better now."

Old Mr. Conduibh patted him with his rough hand. "Tassach, you've grown up. You are a man who can face anything on your own. Love is just a little part of your love, why are you so obsessed with this woman?"

Tassach leaned on the pillow and said, "Grandpa, you were once young and deep in love. It's difficult for a man to meet a woman who he's crazy about, and once they met, it would take him a lifetime to care about her, her moves, and her actions. His mood swings with her. I fell in love with her at the first sight. She's beautiful and excellent, while she stayed so humble in front of other people in our family. Mamy man will fall for that."

Old Mr. Conduibh didn't say anything.

It had been decades since the last time his heartbeat pounded because of love. He had almost forgotten about the feelings, but Tassach's words reminded him of the old days. He recalled some old-day memories, which felt sweet.
