Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29 Do You Love Her

“What’s going on, Kenneth?” Liam demanded.

Kenneth took a deep breath. “Grandpa, this is…”

Suddenly, Liam clutched his chest as though he were in pain.

Kenneth stepped forward hastily. “Grandpa, are you all right?”

Terence held him up. “Don’t scare me, Liam. Where is your medicine? Did you bring them along?” After digging the medicine bottle out of Liam’s pocket, he poured two pills out and fed them to Liam.

“The ambulance! Call the ambulance!” Terence urged.

“On it.” Natasha made the call aside.

At the hospital, everyone waited outside the emergency room anxiously.

Soon, the doctor emerged from the emergency room, and everyone swarmed toward him.

“Doctor, how did it go?”

“Doctor, how is my grandfather doing?”

The doctor removed his mask and gazed at them. “The patient’s doing fine for now. He’s old and is suffering from heart disease, so you have to do your best to not trigger him.”

Hearing that, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

“Can we go and visit him now?”

The doctor answered, “You can visit him once he is sent to his ward. Remember, don’t trigger him.”

Kenneth gave a firm nod.

Soon, Liam was rolled to his ward, and everyone went to visit him.

Liam harrumphed icily when he saw Kenneth and pretended he didn’t see him.

Kenneth said nothing in fear of inducing his anger.

Right then, Terence came up to him. “Liam, you gave me a scare. I nearly got a heart attack no thanks to you.”

“What’s wrong? Are you afraid? If I die, no one will play chess with you. Serve you right for staying away from me!” Liam huffed angrily.

“Pfft, nonsense! Stop saying that!” Terence glared at him. “You’re old but not acting your age!”

“I’m sick. Stop chiding me.”

“Fine, I’ll stop chiding you. I was wrong. There, happy now?” Terence caved in.

Liam gave a satisfied nod.

Natasha parted her lips to say, “Old Mr. Hamilton, please take good care of yourself. You’ll have to keep my grandpa company. Later, you can both move to my grandpa’s house in the countryside. I’ll make sure you enjoy your twilight years there in peace.”

Liam beamed upon hearing that. “I’m glad to hear that. That way, I won’t have to worry about my twilight years.”

Kenneth gaped in disbelief.

Strangely, he felt as though Liam was mocking him.

Did I ever say I won’t take care of him?

“All right, it’s getting late. You’re no longer a young man who can stay up late. Nat, bring your grandpa back home so he can get some rest,” Liam said.

“I’ll keep you company tonight,” Terence offered. He couldn’t fall asleep back home, anyway.

Liam retorted, “What for? I’m not dead. You’re too weak to make it till the next morning. By then, you’ll be lying in bed next to me.”

“Hey!”

“All right. I know you mean well. Prepare some food and bring a chess set over tomorrow,” Liam suggested.
