Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406 Visiting Old Mr. Benedict

Not wanting to continue discussing the topic, Nicole swiftly changed the subject.

“By the way, has Grandpa’s condition improved? I have been so preoccupied nowadays that I haven’t had the time to drop by for a visit.” Speaking of Benedict, Anna instantly glowed and she stretched out her hand to hold Nicole’s.

“He has been doing fine these days. He can’t move around because he has just had an operation, but he is awake and can talk. Wendy and Colton have been taking turns to talk to him these two days.”

As she spoke, she seemed to suddenly recall something.

“He has been complaining about you not dropping by to see him after he woke up. He might even be feeling bitter about it now. How about you head over and see him?”

Wanting to do so, Nicole nodded. “I will go now,” she agreed, in which Anna let go of her hand.

It was almost time for dinner anyway.

“I know about what’s been going on lately. I have asked for Hayden to be brought over and have dinner together later. It would be better for you to stay here for a few days while we wait for the truth to unveil.”

Hearing that, Nicole parted her lips to reject, only to have the older woman interject before Nicole could speak when Anna saw her hesitation.

“Now that Old Mr. Benedict is recovering from such a serious illness, I am sure he will be happier to have you and Hayden around. Although Hayden is Colton’s child, I will not force Hayden to accept Colton as his father. You can rest assured.”

Nicole finally felt more at ease when she saw the gentle look on Anna’s face. With a nod, she gave her gratitude.

“I owe you my thanks, Mrs. Gardner.”

“There’s no need to stand on ceremony between family members.” Anna laughed. “I will head over to the kitchen to see what is good. You can go ahead.”
