At this moment, Frank was standing on the balcony and smoking. He really did not expect the young lady to do this under his nose. He finished one cigarette after another.
He tried to wake himself up and organize his thoughts. If it weren't for the fact that his cigarette was trembling, he might have been able to lie to himself that he was very calm.
He recalled that Ava's condition before she left was actually traceable. Previously, she would stick to him every time she left, but this time, she did not. Instead, she said that her waist was sore.
In the past, he did not have any backache before his period. It was just that he trusted the young lady too much and did not doubt her at all.
At this moment, he was blaming himself and feeling very vexed. He was basically certain that this was the case.
Internally, he was both thrilled and deeply distressed. At this moment, he wished he had the speed to swiftly reach Turner with remarkable agility, like a skilled adventurer.
After smoking the last cigarette, he realized that there was no taste in his mouth. He threw the cigarette box into the trash can and left the room. He stood at the door of Grace's room and knocked.
After knocking a few times, the door opened. Grace was a light sleeper and would wake up at the slightest movement. When she heard the knock on the door, she knew that it was her son. She opened the door and said, "What's wrong? Why aren't you sleeping at night? You have stubble on your chin."
Looking at her slightly tired son, Grace frowned and asked. She covered her mouth and yawned.
Perhaps it was the movement at the door, or perhaps it was because Grace was not sleeping beside him, William got up and followed him out. He stood beside Grace and said, "Frank, did you just come back from outside?"
Frank's heart had already flown to Sapphire City. He did not answer anyone and did not want to waste time. He said directly, "Baby Ava might be pregnant. I plan to go to Sapphire City. The project in my hands might take a while."
William, on the other hand, could not contain his excitement. He was so happy that his jaw dropped. He completely ignored the two words that his son might have said.
On the contrary, Grace exhibited a distinct reaction. A look of bewilderment crossed her face as she inquired with a furrowed brow, "Didn't you explicitly mention avoiding getting her pregnant during university? Hasn't she extended her studies by a year? What's the reason for this?" Grace harbored several concerns regarding Ava's pursuit of a double degree and her decision on whether to pursue further studies.
Frank didn't know how to explain Ava's intention to get pregnant. After some consideration, he decided not to provide an explanation, choosing instead to shoulder the blame himself and give the young girl some face. "Uh, my mistake," he acknowledged.
Regarding her son's simple explanation, Grace did not know what to say. She could only say a few words of her son's fault and urged, "Hurry up and go. Ava, who just got pregnant, must be a little nervous. Go and accompany her to make her feel safer. It's easy for girls to think too much alone."
Frank thought so too. "Yes, it's been hard on you."
"What's so hard about it? Even if you stay there for a year, I have no objections." William was very happy. He finally had a grandson and granddaughter. He had already seen the light, but his daughter-in-law was so studious that she wanted to get a double degree. The graduation time had increased by another year, and the title of grandfather was forcefully put on hold for a year.
He had already calmed down, but his daughter-in-law gave him another surprise and got pregnant on the spot. This daughter-in-law was good.
Not to mention a year, he could even manage it for another year.
After greeting his parents, Frank turned around and returned to his room. He casually took some things and did not intend to waste time tidying up. As he stuffed his things, he took out his phone and called the private plane pilot.
After his son left, Grace closed the door with a slight worry. William began to talk non-stop, "Don't worry. Looking at your worried face, Ava must have made this decision. At most, Frank will follow Ava to university. Since we're here, we'll take it as it comes."
While Happy was in high spirits, William still noticed Grace's worry. Grace responded with a faint acknowledgment, "Indeed."
There was a tinge of self-blame, wondering why she hadn't noticed the child's abnormal behavior when Ava was in Athana.
At the Athana airport, the pilot awaited Frank, holding a cup of coffee. Meanwhile, many bodyguards on the plane were still yawning, indicating they had just emerged from rest.
The bodyguard was also holding a cup of coffee in his hand. Each of them had a glass of coffee. They moved in unison. "I'm sorry, it's been hard on you."
The bodyguards replied in unison, "Not at all."
Frank instructed the pilot, "Let's go." It was 2:30 a.m., and the sky was dark, with only a few stars beside it.
The next day, Joy came to the ward with creamy potato soup in a hurry. The entire hospital was very quiet. There were only a few nurses on duty on the floor of Hackett.
Hackett was still sleeping soundly on the bed. He was sleeping comfortably. In order to make Hackett's head stay still, Sherri chose to sleep on the accompanying bed.
Joy gently pushed open the door and looked around. He found his daughter-in-law sleeping on the accompanying bed. He quietly walked into the bed and held his son's head to examine it.
No matter how soundly Hackett slept, he would still wake up. When he opened his eyes, he saw his mother's smiling face. He was so frightened that he immediately sat up. Joy was afraid that his son would disturb his daughter-in-law, so he immediately covered his son's mouth.
"What are you doing? Sit down and be quiet. Sherri is still asleep," Joy said softly.
Seeing that her son was so agile, she guessed that there was not much of a problem. Other than the bandage on her head, she scanned her son's entire body and found that she was fine. She was relieved.
