"You mean you want Martha to go home?"
"Yes, I can't trust Martha! I know what kind of person Martha is. She can do anything for money! " They hadn't been in touch with each other for so many years, but Gail could see what Martha had done. As long as she thought of that Lily might interfere here, then Martha was no different from Lily. Gail felt scared when she thought about it, so she didn't want Martha to stay here for a moment.
James nodded, "if you don't want, it's easy. This person is indeed untrustworthy. What Martha has been worried about was not Grandpa's condition and operation, but the hotel she has stayed in. I see. You can probably see her ask to go home tomorrow. "
James was so confident that Gail was curious about what he would do. "What method are you going to use?"
"You'll know it tomorrow. It won't be good if I tell you now." James' mysterious smile reassured Gail.
A stone fell to the ground, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Nicholas' condition was stable now. The doctor said he could be discharged from the hospital in a month and would be checked up regularly.
And Martha was really anxious to go home. She said there was something wrong at home and she had to hurry back.
Of course, Gail wouldn't let her stay. Although Nicholas was reluctant her to leave, he didn't try to persuade her to stay.
But Nicholas seemed to be a little disappointed with Martha, because when she left, she asked James to reimburse her for the road expenses.
With his eyes closed, Nicholas didn't say anything. James just held Gail's hand, Gail was about to get angry. He said what he should do and asked someone to give Martha some money.
Gail sat on the edge of Nicholas' bed and looked at his disappointed eyes, feeling a little sad.
"Grandpa, don't think too much. Martha just has something to do at home. You know, she has always been like that." Gail didn't know how to comfort Nicholas. After all, no matter what happened, Martha was his own daughter.
Nicholas turned his head weakly and looked at the sky outside the window. He said sadly, "I know she came to see me not because she wanted to see me, but because she heard that you married a rich man. You don't have to comfort me. Gai, I know you are under a lot of pressure. After I leave, don't contact Martha's family. Or you won't live a peaceful life in the future. "
Nicholas was so weak that he was out of breath after a few words.
"I know, Grandpa. I will take good care of myself, and you have to accompany me. Don't say that you leave. The doctor said that you can't talk too much. What you need now is rest. You can leave the hospital after a few days. At that time, we will take you to some interesting places in NF City to have a look. " Speaking of this topic, Gail was always unwilling to mention it. The sick people were always depressed, and the more they talked, the more depressed they became.
"Okay, I'm tired too. Go ahead with your work. The conditions here are very good. To be honest, I haven't enjoyed it like this before. There are people watching at your clothes, food, transportation and so on. From now on, you two will be fine, and I will have a good life in the future. " Perhaps Nicholas saw Gail's worry, he joked, and a kind smile appeared on his pale face.
At this time, James just came back from the doctor's office. Gail turned to look at him with tenderness in her eyes, which warmed his heart.
