I Forgot I Ever Loved You (Zoe and Hayden) novel Chapter 415

Timothy could hear the pure disgust in Garrett's voice, which he found a bit odd.

But then again, the Kendalls were a strict, highly traditional family. It made perfect sense that they'd find this kind of scandalous affair revolting.

Timothy chuckled, not wanting to brush off Garrett's opinion.

"Fair enough."

None of them had any real interest in Hayden's trashy gossip, so the conversation quickly moved on.

While Zoe couldn't care less about Hayden's soap opera, the Thorne family was currently imploding.

Grandmother Beatrice had seen the news about Hayden unconditionally transferring Easton's shares to Sienna. The sheer rage sent her straight into the hospital.

When Hayden rushed in, Grandmother Beatrice was already hooked up to an IV, her white hair a mess, her eyes half-closed in exhaustion.

Sienna had accompanied Hayden. Spotting the old woman, she called out softly, "Grandmother, Hayden and I came to see you."

She had brought Holden along. The staff hadn't told her why Grandmother Beatrice was hospitalized, and she hadn't bothered to ask.

Grandmother Beatrice shot a dark look at Holden, then weakly waved Sienna away.

"Hospitals are full of sickness. Don't frighten the boy. Take him home."

Sienna immediately understood. The old woman had things to say to Hayden, and she wasn't welcome to hear them.

"Colin, drive them back," Hayden ordered.

Sienna was anxious, but she didn't dare disobey the matriarch.

Holden was already throwing a tantrum in the hospital. He had found a water gun somewhere and was spraying everyone in sight. Sienna had no choice but to drag him out.

"You absolute disgrace! Stand right there!"

"Easton belonged to Charles. Giving it back to his wife and son is the right thing to do."

Grandmother Beatrice was so enraged she grabbed the nearest object off the nightstand and hurled it at him.

"Charles wasn't a brainless idiot like you! He made her sign an ironclad prenup before they got married. When you were both single and wanted to marry her, I told you I despised her background.

Look at the kind of family she comes from! Her mother remarried and stole her ex-husband's inheritance, and her father is a pathetic gold-digger. You think a girl raised by parasites is going to be anything but a leech?

When her marriage to you fell apart, she immediately started seducing Charles. I just chose not to interfere in your young drama, but don't think for a second I was blind or stupid. If she hadn't managed to get pregnant with Holden, the Thorne family would have never let a shameless tramp like her through the door!"

Hayden frowned deeply at her vicious breakdown of Sienna.

But he didn't argue. He just stood there, letting her scream.

He waited until she had completely exhausted herself. Once her breathing steadied, he carefully helped her lie back against the pillows, standing stoically by the bed.
