Chapter 665
When Griffon opened his eyes once more, it was the second day. Seeing the Knight pack members standing in the ward, his hawk eyes were stained with impatience.
Knowing that he preferred quietness, the Knight pack did not make any noise. They remained to stand quietly aside, and the extreme quietness made it seem like a pack meeting.
Sitting at the foot of the hospital bed was a seventy-five-year-old dressed in a suit and leather shoes, a vibrant elderly man with gray hair. With his back straightened, his eyes were tear-filled looking at Griffon' pale and thin face...
With his crane tightly clutched, he uttered in a deep voice, "Griffon, things have gone hard on you."
The voice of the old man revealed the vicissitudes of the years, but it was still as vigorous and powerful as always.
Coupled with his body that exuded an overbearing aura and his voice that was oppressively majestic.
That sense of oppression was inherent in the Knight pack. It was a powerful aura that came with years of taking the throne no one could easily compare.
With his eyes lowered, Griffon nodded his head without anything else to say...
Alpha Knight, too, sensed the distance between them. After sitting for a while, he began feeling restless and awkward.
When Griffon was young, he had acquiesced in Gloria’s actions out of guilt for her, and had never defended his grandson.
Although he focused on cultivating Griffon, they weren’t close, and Griffon seldom visited him at the Knight Manor after he was all grown up...
Knowing that the incident was a matter that gnawed at Griffon’ mind, he didn't stay long and left after giving a few words of advice..
Seeing members of the Knight pack following Alpha Knight out of the ward, Griffon withdrew his indifferent gaze to Preston, who stayed behind.
"Has she been here?"
Preston and Andre exchanged glances before Preston lowered his eyes, answering with a guilty conscience, "She did. After you fell asleep last night, Harper and Taya came to visit you, but since Harper felt a little uncomfortable, Taya sent her back..."
Griffon’ well-kept brows were drawn to a frown. "When you lie, you’ll unnaturally look at the floor..."
Preston's heart missed a beat. He tried to retort, but happened to see Griffon chiding with an icy face. "Did something happen to her?"
Preston had his head lowered, not daring to answer. Griffon’ gaze shifted to Andre, and at sight of him with his head drooped, his blood boiled in rage.
"Speak!"
Griffon growled, his entire body trembling, not knowing if it was from his physical discomfort, or for fear of anything happening to Taya.
