Ice and Fire novel Chapter 831

The reply that she had received from the other end of the phone pleased Sharon and she responded, "Okay, fine, I am coming to meet you right now! Where are you? Please text me the address."

After?they had bid each other goodbye, Sharon quickly hung?up?the?phone. There was a huge?smile?on her face, making it look as if she was pretty pleased with what she had just heard.

She then stood up, looked at Fred who was standing in front of her and then turned to look at Greg who was sitting not far away, announcing, "My best friend is back in the city and I will stay with her for a few days."

Before the father and son could say something in return, Sharon turned away to go upstairs and pack up all her things.

Fred didn't say a word to that, but walked over and sat beside Greg on the sofa.

"I am very sorry, Father!" Greg apologized as his head lowered down.

"No, don't say that! It's not your fault at all!" Fred comforted his son and patted on his shoulder. "If your Aunt Sharon wants to move out for some time, let her do it! I hope that when she is back her mind would have cleared of all the negative thoughts."

"Father," Greg called Fred. Actually, he didn't care about Sharon at all. He was least bothered about what she was going to do after this.

"Yes, what happened son?" asked Fred, still looking at his son continuously.

"I'd like to take over the XS Hospital from tomorrow onward. I really want to do something for you!" Greg didn't expect that he would have the courage to say such a thing in front of his father.

"Greg, have?you?figured?it all out?" There was a surprise in Fred's voice. Earlier, he wanted to ask his son to take charge of the hospital and he would always change the topic. But today, to his utter surprise, Greg unexpectedly brought up the topic himself and expressed his desire to do so!

"Yes," Greg slightly nodded his head, but he kept his head lowered as he did not want to face his father. He did not want his father to read his expressions, or understand why he was doing that.

"Good! I should step aside and let you handle the rest!" Fred smiled. He was really happy that this son had finally taken this decision.

"Father, I will take care of the hospital and you can then leave in peace with Sharon. This way the whole family would be able to enjoy a calm life," Greg said to his Father.

Greg's words made Fred's smile?change?into a?frown. He could understand the sadness from the tone of Greg's voice, so he asked, "Greg, are you...missing Violet?"

"Father, I think of her all the time," Greg replied without hesitation. Violet had been the love of his life for a very long time and he would never let her and her memories go away from his life.

Fred heaved a deep sigh and said, "It's all our fault and we are sorry for whatever we did to Violet!"

"Father," Greg suddenly called out to his father and lifted his head. Even though he was missing Violet terribly, he said calmly, "Say nothing more. I am waiting for her to come back! I know she will return! But before she comes, I hope that our family understands the importance of being together so that her stay this time will be blissful."

"Okay, okay!" Fred agreed with Greg. As long as his son was fine, he could do anything for him.
