Unloved Unwanted Unstoppable (Seraphina and Dominic) novel Chapter 367

"G... Gideon..."

Her voice instantly lost all its bite as she forced a sickeningly sweet smile. "Oh my, Gideon, you're here! You have to help me!"

She pointed an accusatory finger at Seraphina, her volume rising again. "Look at this! This is my own granddaughter, but this vicious woman won't let me see her! I'm her grandmother! She has no right to stop me..."

Growing increasingly animated, she reached out to grab his sleeve.

He smoothly stepped aside, avoiding her grasp.

"The patient requires a quiet environment."

His tone was devoid of warmth. "Do you honestly believe screaming at the top of your lungs is good for her?"

Her hand awkwardly hung in the air, her forced smile faltering.

He didn't sound like he was here to back her up at all.

"Gideon, you... you misunderstood..."

"I misunderstood nothing."

He cut her off, his voice maintaining its chilling calm. "Please leave."

Dropping her hand, she stood rooted to the spot, the fake courtesy finally slipping from her face.

She pulled a sour expression. "Gideon, I know you're very powerful now, and I don't want any trouble with you. We are family, after all. But this woman is entirely in the wrong. You should get all the facts before you damage our relationship over this."

At that, he finally turned his head, his gaze sweeping over her face.

"Family?"

A faint smirk played on his lips. "We have absolutely no relationship."

Winifred's face flushed with anger. "I know you're a big shot, but this is a hospital, not your boardroom. You don't make the rules here, and you certainly don't have the authority to kick me out."

He didn't dignify that with a response.
