Chapter 327 Pitiful-Looking Girl
Anna looked like she was about to say something, but she hesitated for a moment before keeping her mouth shut. Then, she sighed as she rested a hand on Nicole’s shoulder. “Why don’t you bring Hayden in to see Old Mr. Benedict? He’s awake now and he’d be happy to see you guys,” Anna said.
Nicole nodded before bringing Hayden into the house. Benedict was not lying on the bed when they visited this time. Instead, he was sitting on the couch with his head tilted to look out at the window.
No one knew what he was looking at. He was dressed in dark green pajamas, and his entire body rested against the couch. His hair looked even whiter than it did a few days ago.
“Hello, Great-grandpa,” Hayden uttered in a soft voice. Benedict turned around when he heard the voice. He looked rather pale, and his lips were drained of color.
However, Benedict smiled the moment he saw Hayden. “It’s my great-grandson!” Hayden walked over carefully and came to a stop in front of Benedict.
The child’s round black pupils fixed themselves on the old man’s face for a while before Hayden asked him a question. “Are you sick, Great-Grandpa? You look really pale.” The child was direct—he stated his observations without any hesitation.
Benedict reached his hand out to pat Hayden on the head. “That’s right. I’m sick, so I look rather pale now. However, I’ll get better soon, so you don’t have to worry about it,” he said.
“Yeah. You’re going to be fine, Great-grandpa. Dad is really rich, so he’s going to cure you!” Hayden uttered with great certainty. Nicole felt her heart skipping a beat when she heard her son’s words.
Hayden stole a glance at Nicole, and he continued speaking when he saw that she hadn’t shown any significant changes in expression. “I heard Mom say that you took my grandmother as your daughter and that we’re all family, Great-Grandpa.”
Benedict couldn’t help but laugh when he heard Hayden’s words. “Yeah. Madeline is a really filial daughter. Where is she, by the way?”

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
