Can't Help Falling In Love novel Chapter 22

"You've met the prince in white as well. He is Jacob! Brian's personal assistant. He was so handsome and elegant, just like Moore. He used to be my dream guy. I think Moore is more handsome than Ryan! " Lora chattered.

On the other side, Kate was silent. She actually didn't want to bring up Moore and Ryan.

"Kate, you must help me to observe Jacob. It's all up to you whether I can make it or not." Lora answered seriously.

"Well." Facing the enthusiastic Lora, Kate felt too embarrassed to say no.

After hanging up the phone, Kate sighed.

Sometimes she envied Lora, who lived in an ideal world where she could do whatever she wanted without thinking. In fact, Lora was from a rich family, so she was wealthy enough to squander money.

As an acting secretary, she was not qualified to sit next to the CEO. But for some unknown reason, Kate was sitting next to Brian, and Jacob was pathetically forced into another car by her.

After getting along with her for these days, Kate was very familiar with sitting in the same car with Brian, but it was inevitable to feel embarrassed.

Kate peeped at Brian for several times, but Brian didn't seem to notice that. He leaned quietly against the car chair and slightly closed his eyes. His long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly. Even if he looked closer, he could not see any flaws on his face.

'God is unfair. He is not only handsome, but also rich.

While she looked at him, Kate's hand moved a little. She wanted to touch his black hair. It seemed that she could touch it well.

However, before Kate's hand could move, the CEO with his eyes closed tightly grasped hers.

Kate wanted to withdraw her hand subconsciously, but her strength was obviously not enough for Brian. So she compromised again, letting him hold her hand.

The hand of the CEO was very broad, and the warmth coming from his palm was so tempting that she couldn't help but want to indulge in it.

A strange feeling came to her. She tried her best to suppress it. She didn't know what it was, but she knew it was a dangerous feeling and it was a taboo for her.

The car stopped at the gate of the hospital again. Kate looked out of the window in confusion. Was the headquarter of the Li group built in the hospital? It couldn't be.

She was confused and turned her head to look at Brian. At this time, Brian had also woken up. Without looking at her, he took her hand and got out of the car from the side.

Though Kate was confused, she knew it was right to go with Brian and he could arrange everything with ease.

Entering a familiar ward, Kate had already known the purpose of this trip to visit Brian's grandmother.

The old lady in the bed seemed to be even weaker than she had been when she visited her last time. She saw Brian and Kate coming over, struggled to sit up, smiled at them and reached out her hand to take off the oxygen bottle from her nose.

"Grandma, don't move." Said Brian gently, trying to stop her.

The old man frowned and looked at Brian for a few times. Obviously, she wanted him to help her take off the oxygen mask. She wanted to talk to Brian.

"Grandma, be good and listen to the doctor." Brian said softly as if he was coaxing a naive child.

Kate was shocked when she heard what Brian said. At the same time, she felt a pain in her heart. She thought that the relationship between Brian and her grandmother must be good.

After her nominal marriage with Brian, the first person that Brian took her to meet was not his parents, but his grandmother. Even at Lily's birthday party, Kate hadn't seen Brian parents there. If they hadn't met by chance, Kate thought Brian wouldn't have taken her to meet her sister-in-law.

Brian didn't say anything. His hand holding the old woman's in silence. Even so, the old woman's smile of satisfaction could be seen on her face. Kate accompanied Brian until grandma fell asleep.

The old woman was sleeping soundly, but her face looked dreadfully pale, showing the traces of time. She was just like a clean and peaceful room. Presumably, it had taken a lot of effort for Brian to decorate this room.

"I'm afraid she's getting worse. But don't worry. We'll do our best," An old doctor walked out of the room with Brian and said seriously.

Kate knew what the doctor meant and looked at Brian worriedly. Brian frowned and commanded in a low voice, "do your best."

"Don't worry. I will." The doctor promised.

From the old woman's room to the entrance of the hospital, Brian's face was dark and frightening, and he was even less talkative than usual.

Kate carefully guessed his mood and could not help asking, "what's wrong with grandma?"

"Stroke." Brian stopped and replied.

Kate, who was following behind, also stopped at once. But because of inertia, her head hit the arm of Brian.

"You can visit her once a day. I'll come with you when I have time." Added Brian.

His voice was a little heavy, and Kate nodded in response. It was not only because this was the order from the CEO to his subordinates, but also because Kate had a vague feeling that this was what she should do. After all, nominally, Brian's grandmother was also her grandmother.
