Jason smiled.
“Jasper and I came to visit Georgia in the ward, we thought that you'd be in the ward but it turned out that you were not, weren’t you madly in love with your wife now, were you? How could you sneak out when your wife is sick and hospitalized? What are you doing now? What's the important matter?”
Jason asked and teased him, Robert was sitting in front of Aidan at that time, it's just that, he didn't answer Jason's question truthfully.
“There's an important matter that requires me to go to Europe, it will need around 3-4 days, I can only return after that, help me take care of Georgia and her friend for these few days, thanks.”
“Haven't you been watching your uncle's act? Did you decide to seize the initiative so quickly?”
Jason thought Robert was preparing a plan to go back to the Simpson family's key figure in power, so he'd leave at such an important time when Georgia was sick.
“It is slightly related to this matter, it should be kept secret for the moment, you don't need to care about it, I still have things to discuss now, I'm hanging up.”
After Robert finished speaking, he just hung up.
Jason was flabbergasted, he turned his head and answered Jasper and Georgia.
“He said that he's going to Europe for a business trip, there's an important matter in the company, he'll probably be back in a few days... Georgia, Robert told Jasper and I to take care of you these few days, don't feel irritated by our naggings, we will spare some time and visit you these days.”
Jason was always free spirited and quite humorous, Georgia smiled.
“If you really talk with me here everyday, I think I won't be bored, staying in the hospital is very boring.”
Jason immediately promised.
“Since you like it, I'll come over and talk more with you, I just hope that Robert won't be angry.”
Since they admitted that Georgia was going to marry Robert, Jason and Jasper really treated Georgia as their sister in law, they're very respectful, Georgia faintly smiled and they continued talking.
Meanwhile in Aidan's villa, after Robert hung up, Aidan asked strangely.
“Did you have a disagreement with Georgia? Why did you lie just now? She's now hospitalized because she's sick, you're staying at my place at such an important time, seems that you're not going to visit her these few days, what happened?”
Robert didn't want to explain to that question.
There were too much things that piled up, that made him unable to face Georgia, he's afraid that he'd show an angry or cold face in front of Georgia.
He'd rather leave for several days to calm down than unable to control his own feelings, What exactly should he do with the future of him and Georgia?
“All couples can disagree, married couples can quarrel too, it's a very normal thing, you don't need to care about it, I'm here because I want to talk about the matter last time with you, I promise you, my power is too insignificant, I can't constantly be on guard by her side, your suggestion before was very good, on the surface, I'll be your successor and make my mother satisfied, in private, you're willing to give your assets and security system to Georgia, I'm very grateful.”
Robert meant that he's willing to accept his father's decision of giving the assets to Georgia.
Robert actually understood that giving it to Georgia meant his father was giving it to him.
Because he and Georgia were husband and wife, if they had a child, those assets would be inherited to their child, so it's equivalent to pass it to him.
Back then, Robert felt that Aidan considered that as compensation for neglecting him for over ten years, he felt that it’s disdainful.
But after Georgia got kidnapped this time, at those times of life and death, when he felt desperate and powerless, Robert understood that if he could increase Georgia's security and safety, there's no need for him to fuss over his dissatisfaction.
Protecting the one he loved, that's the important matter.
Nothing else could beat Georgia's safety.
Since Robert agreed to that request, that's a proof that he didn't give up on Georgia, seemed that it’s just a common disagreement between a couple.
Aidan didn't ask further.
“Okay then, just set it as our previous plan, I'll let my lawyer team to plan my will, when the time comes you should prepare well too, it's best to let Georgia come over because this thing needs her signature and also some of her credentials, if you let her know, I won't have any objection, it's okay if you don't want to let her know either, but you have to handle it better.”
“I understand, thank you.”
In the end, Robert said thank you sincerely.
A son would yearn for his father, when Robert was young, he actually really respected and admired Aidan.
In more than 10 years, Aidan did treat Robert very nicely, but the nicer he was, the more Robert hated him when he left.
Robert had learned how to suppress all that, learned how to forget him, but he then appeared again in Robert's life, wanting to compensate him.
Robert was trying to accept the "late" fatherly love.
