At the hospital, The old master had yet to come out of the door that represented crisis. Caden Shaw stood by the entrance with inexplicable uneasiness.
After another twitch of his right eyelid, the uneasiness in his heart gradually increased.
Caden looked at the door and proceeded to ask the butler, “How did grandfather faint?”
“He suddenly...” The old butler said just a few words just as the door began to open, a man wearing a white coat emerged from the room. Caden reached out and stopped the doctor wearing the white coat, “The man inside is my grandfather. How is he now?”
The doctor hadn’t expected that he would be blocked and asked such a question so suddenly, “Your grandfather didn’t...”
“Our grandfather is the old chairman of the Shaw Group. You better give him the best treatment.”
Without waiting for the doctors reply, the butler suddenly tried to interrupt.
Then the doctor quickly changed his mind and spoke swiftly, informing them that the situation was not clear and they still needed to check him again carefully.
Caden didn’t speak and stepped aside so that the doctor could walk away. At the same time, he picked up his cellphone and tilted his head to the side carelessly towards the butler with a raise of his eyebrows, “Hubert White is also a doctor. His medical skills are well-known all over the country. I can rest assured knowing he is here.”
The butlers eye twitched, he raised his head and opened his mouth as if he wanted to speak, but he said nothing.
Eventually it was as if being suspended in midair, the butler just stood there dumbfounded in silence.
The young master of the Shaw family was always an activist. While talking, Caden dialed Hubert’s phone number. Before he could be stopped, the call had already been connected. What more could the butler say?
“Hubert, please come to XX affiliated hospital. Well, my grandfather fainted. The doctors here are in the process of saving him. Please come by and see if he can be saved.”
When the old butler heard such words come from young master lips, his face became twisted with disgust. The young master had spoke as if the master were dying.
Granted that the White family and Shaw family were to have a cooperative relationship again, or even if the master of the White family was very friendly with the Shaw family, Hubert was still considered an outsider. To tell an outsider that the master of the Shaw family was dying without any hesitation, was this even appropriate?
On the other end of the phone, Hubert gave a strange look after answering the call. What was all the fuss about? Listening to Caden’s tone, from the sound of his voice, it didn’t seem as if his grandfather were dying at all.

How can a woman suffer so much? How can a man be too cruel initially robbing her of dignity and all, then deceiving her after he knows he loves her? How can they not remarry, making their offspring illegitimate? The line between love and hatred is truly fine indeed! Thank you for this story....
