Chapter 198

Grandpa Hale sat up in bed, and Grandma Hale rushed to support him.

What are you just sitting there for? Take the things from Mia’s hands!”

Seeing Ethan motionless on the sofa, Grandma Hale shot him a glare.

It’s fine.”

Mia had already walked over and set the fruit basket on the nightstand.

Didn’t you say he could be discharged in a few days?”

Several days had passed, and yet Ethan was asking for luggage. It was clear Grandpa would have to stay longer.

The two elders turned their dissatisfied gazes toward Ethan.

His vitals aren’t hitting the marks yet. He can’t leave,” Ethan explained coolly.

He had arranged a full physical for Grandpa, and several results had come back over the limit. The doctor ecommended observation for at least another week.

I know medicine. These are just my old symptoms. I’ll just go home and brew a few herbal remedies to regulate my ystem, Grandpa Hale said, clearly anxious about being discharged.

Grandma Hale patted his chest to soothe him. “Don’t be impatient. Staying a few more days won’t hurt. He’s just vorried about you.”

He’s afraid something will happen to me and the wedding will be postponed,” Grandpa Hale snapped, his tubborn streak surfacing. “Don’t worry. I’ll hang on to my last breath just to see you finish that wedding before l

ick the bucket.”

he ward fell silent. The tension between the grandson and grandfather was thick.

o be precise, it was Grandpa Hale’s one-sided frustration with Ethan.

Grandma Hale quickly added, “It’s not just about seeing him get married. You have to wait to see your reat-grandchild…”

That’s right,” Mia said, following Grandma Hale’s lead. “Just rest easy and listen to Mr. Hale.”

Grandpa Hale let out a cold snort, his anger still directed at Ethan.

Ethan’s brow suddenly furrowed. It was impossible to tell if he was angry at Grandpa’s “disobedience,” or if it was omething else that Mia couldn’t fathom.

Legardless, his expression turned sour.

Grandpa, Grandma, I’ll head back to the office now. I’ll come visit you again another day.”

Mia chose the right moment to say her goodbyes.

Grandpa Hale nodded. “Go on, get back to work. I’m fine, don’t worry.”

She then turned to Ethan. “Mr. Hale, I’m heading back. Do you have anything else to instruct?”

“Don’t go back. I’m giving you the day off.”

Ethan flicked his eyes toward her. “Get some good rest. I don’t want you getting sick and delaying work.”

Although she had slept deeply last night, the overload of work from the past few days had left her looking haggard.

“Thank you, Mr. Hale.”

Ethan was always considerate of his subordinates.

However, that phrase “lest you get sick and delay work” sounded a bit piercing.

Even if he hadn’t explained, Mia wouldn’t have assumed he was actually worried about her health.

Mia stopped by the orphanage to see Carly.

She parked her car at the entrance. As she walked toward the courtyard, she caught a glimpse of a pink figure suddenly darting into the warehouse.
