Chapter 861


    There was no reasoning with this man. Besides, he was concerned about me, and I had no way of


    refusing.


    When the car arrived at the front door of the hospital, Theo got out of the car and took out two bags


    of supplements.


    I was a little stunned. "When did you prepare them?"


    Theo held my hand and said with a smile, "I told Keith to prepare them a long time ago. The initial


    n was t o give these to them before they leftst night."


    It seemed like he nned to go in with me.


    I followed behind him, feeling a little moved.


    Unknowingly, Theo had be a person who paid attention to details. He had be a warm


    person. It seemed like I was the only one stuck in ce, honest and slow.


    Petra surely did not get enough sleep at night because the anesthetic''s effect would wear off two


    hours after the surgery.


    Grayson had stayed up all night with her, so when Theo and I walked in, he was dozing off on the


    sofa.


    Petra was not sleeping. She kept staring at the ceiling, lost in thoughts.


    She looked sideways when she heard someoneing in.


    Seeing that it was Theo and me, a look of surprise emerged on her face.


    Then, she patted Grayson, who was sleeping on the sofa, and said with a smile, "Wake up."


    Grayson opened his eyes and was a little stunned to see us. He quickly got up and said, "Why did


    youe when it’s snowing so heavily outside? It''s cold too. It’s dangerous to drive.”


    Theo smiled and ced the supplements in his hand o n the bedside table. "It''s not that cold. The


    snow on the road hasn''t melted and it''s not slippery, so don''t worry."


    After a pause, he looked at Petra and asked, "Have you had breakfast?”


    Petra shook her head. "Not yet."


    "I''m old now, and my body can''t stand staying up all night."


    Grayson gently sighed. "I kept dozing off and fell asleep while sitting on the sofa. I forgot to buy


    breakfast."


    Petra felt sorry for him and looked at him, saying, "Go home and get some rest. The caretaker is


    coming soon, so you don''t have to worry about it."


    Grayson shook his head to refuse. "How can I sleep


    even if I go home?"


    Petra stopped persuading him after hearing what he said. She merely sighed and said, "I can tell


    that you''re getting more stubborn as you grow older."


    Theo was sending text messages on his phone. They were probably to Keith. I figured that he still


    had many things to do at thepany, so I grabbed his sleeve and said, "It''s gettingte. You


    should be at thepany now. I can stay here by myself."


    He kept his phone and said with a smile, "There are not a lot of things to do. Keith can handle


    them."Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    He then looked at Grayson. "Why don''t you go home and rest, Grayson? Wanda and I will be here.


    There''s nothing for you to worry about.”


    Grayson pursed his lips and looked at me, seemingly questioning if I would stay here and take care


    of Petra too.


    I said, "You should go home. We''ll be here."


    Grayson looked at Petra and noticed herplexion looking much better. There was delight written


    all over her face and eyes too, so he nodded to show his agreement. "Okay, I''ll go home and get a


    good rest. I’lle over when I wake up."


    Petra raised her hand, signaling him to hurry back and get some rest.


    After he left, Theo pulled me to sit by the bedside. He said, "You two should talk first. I’m going to


    ask the nurse and see when she''s starting the drip. I''ll buy something to eat too.”


    Before I could say anything, he turned around and left.


    Once he left, Petra and I were the only ones left in the ward. The atmosphere was a little awkward.


    However, I was ustomed to awkward situations like this, hence I did not feel particrly


    ufortable.
