Julian's Stand in Wife novel Chapter 620

Grandma’s situation was much worse than Diana initially expected.

Yet Grandma wasn’t warded despite the severity of her condition.

That could only mean two possibilities: either there was no need to hospitalize Grandma for emergency treatment, or there were too many patients and the wards were full.

Given the Fulcher’s power and status, it was clearly not the latter.

Even if the hospital was bursting at the seams, it wasn’t much of a stretch for the hospital to create another wing within a short period of time.

It could only be the former.

Diana could no longer hold her tears back.

Even so, she tried her best to inch closer to Grandma.

Julian could sense the severity of the situation, and panic seized him like never before. He instinctively tightened his grip over Diana’s hand.

Diana squeezed his hand back.

Thankfully, at this point when their loved one was on the verge of death, they had each other to share their fears and sorrows.

But in the face of their loved one, no matter how much comfort they could derive from each other, sorrow came gushing over them, swallowing them up and drowning them so thoroughly they could hardly breathe.

They drew closer to Grandma.

With each step, they felt increasingly suffocated.

Even though they were not professional medical staff, they could tell that Grandma was like a fish on dry land.

She did not have much life left in her.

Her lips were no longer just pale, but were purplish in color, which clearly told of severe heart issues.

In other words, what Grandma claimed about putting on an act before Hans was a lie.

What was even more laughable was the fact that Diana had believed Grandma’s words!

Diana wanted to give herself a tight slap.

Just then, Grandma saw the look on Diana’s face, and lifted her arm with all her might to touch Diana’s face as ache filled the latter’s heart.

Diana’s heart grew tender upon seeing the look on Grandma’s face. She forgot all about crying as she knelt down and grabbed Grandma’s hand, placing her palm on her cheeks. “Grandma, I’m here, I’m here.”

She called out to Grandma again and again, as if crying out to the latter’s soul.

A look of happiness flashed past Grandma’s eyes as she opened her mouth, trying to respond.
