Chapter 273 A Grandfather’s Love

Raymond’s booming roar rated with fury, punctuated by ragged coughing fits.

He slammed his palm against the bedrail with dull thuds, visibly fuming.

He had only regained consciousness this morning.

Prior to last night, he had been trapped in a deep coma.

When the paramedics brought him in, his vitals were hanging by a thread.

The medical team fought tooth and nail in the ICU to pull him back from death’s door.

He had only been moved to the step–down recovery ward two days ago.

Julian pleaded helplessly. “Dad, even if you want to see Bella, not in this state.

‘Focus on resting up so Bella doesn’t have to worry about you.

‘How could she have peace of mind seeing you wired to monitors?”

Raymond’s shouting quieted down slightly at those words.

But soon, his gruff voice barked again, “Don’t try sweet–talking me!

‘Even if I’m laid up, what’s stopping you from bringing the child home first?

Just tell her I went abroad for a holiday.

‘Having the three of you look after her is ten times better than leaving her with the Powells!

‘I knew that bastard Daniel was up to no good.

‘He promised to notify me the moment Bella was located, but he went behind my back and took her nome in secret!

If I hadn’t dug up the rumor on my own, who knows how long he would have kept me blind.

‘I bet he never intended to give Bella a debut gala in the first place.

The man is rotten to the core–an ungrateful snake!”

Raymond cursed under his breath, finally letting the topic of an immediate visit drop.

Deep down, he knew Bella would be sick with worry if she saw him bedridden.

Not to mention dumping a room full of unfamiliar faces on her all at once…

Sure, they were her flesh and blood, but the poor girl didn’t know that yet!

She grew up believing she was an orphan from the sticks: what if having a crowd of relatives suddenly

appear terrified her?

That fear alone was the only reason he had held back this long.

Daniel had stalled at every turn, refusing to let him see Bella.

There was definitely something fishy going on!

Julian spoke in gentle, soothing whispers, gradually calming the old man down.

Soon, Raymond’s grumbling drifted through the door once more. “Then tell those doctors to pump me with whatever meds they have!

“I feel fantastic, fine! I’m checking myself out today!”

Once I’m discharged, I can finally meet my granddaughter!

A flawless plan!

Raymond congratulated himself in his thoughts.

“Dad!”

Julian rubbed his temples in exasperation.

Outside the room, Isabella and Eugene waited until the chatter died down, giving it a polite buffer before pushing the door open.

“Grandfather, Uncle Julian.”

Isabella offered Julian a gentle nod as she stepped into the suite.

Delight washed over Julian’s face.

“Bella?!”

Hearing the name, the frail old man on the hospital bed snapped his head toward the entrance, “Bella?! Where is she?!”

Raymond was still grumbling to himself.

A bunch of ungrateful brats.

I told them I’m cured and ready to roll!

Yet they keep me locked up in this damn ward!

Hmph!

What’s so great about rotting in a hospital bed?!

Nursing his irritation, the sudden mention of Isabella’s name made him snap his gaze up in a flash.
