Chapter 493


    After saying the good news, it was time for the bad news. They were still excited about the good news.


    Rose said the bad news. Even Edward, who was beside her, wanted to know what the bad news was.


    Rose said, “The bad news is that you’re going to be grandpa, grandma, and uncle.” Sheughed


    suddenly.


    Edward was speechless.


    After hearing the bad news, Grace, William, and Frank heaved a sigh of relief. Frank really wanted to


    p Rose. He thought, “Why is Rose so childish?”


    Perhaps because this surprise came too suddenly, the three people on the sofa did not say anything.


    At that time, there were tears in Grace’s eyes.


    William looked at Rose with mixed feelings. He pursed his lips and did not speak. He was no longer as


    cute as usual. Instead, he was very serious.


    The atmosphere was very quiet. Even Frank, who had always been sharp-tongued, didn’t say anything.


    Seeing that no one was talking, Edward eased the atmosphere and expressed his stance in advance.


    “William, Grace, Frank, I’ll take good care of Rose. Don’t worry.”


    A promise broke the silence. They came back to their senses. William was actually at a loss for words.


    It was Grace who spoke first. She smiled at Rose, hiding the tears in her eyes. “I’m d that you will be


    parents. Congrattions!”


    Grace and Rose looked at each other. There were tears in Rose’s eyes, making her could not see


    Grace’s face clearly. They didn’t say anything, but their feelings were transmitted in an instant.


    Frank pressed his tongue against the base of his teeth and exhaled. In the end, he did not say


    anything.


    The few of them chatted in the living room for a few hours. It was Grace who told Rose to be careful,


    and William who told Edward to take good care of Rose. There was even a threatening tone in his


    words.


    In the study upstairs, Grace couldn’t sleep. She sat alone in the study and flipped through the photos of


    Frank and Rose when they were young. A tear rolled down her cheek andnded on the photo album,


    gradually spreading.


    William pushed the door open and saw Grace secretly wiping her tears. He was heartbroken as he


    closed the door again. He walked over and put his arm around Grace’s shoulder, pressing her into his


    chest. Without saying anything, he quietly patted Grace’s shoulder and stroked her hair.


    Hepanied her silently. It was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a needle dropping.


    After a while, Grace moved away from William’s chest. William raised his hand and wiped her face with


    his fingers. “Why are you crying like Rose? I’m not even crying. Why are you crying?”


    As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit by Grace.


    William was not angry. He even smiled. “Go ahead. If you want to vent, I’ll exercise with you. Are you


    going?”


    “Why are we going now? It’s already sote. Don’t you want to sleep?”


    William continued to smile and wiped the tears from Grace’s eyes. He could understand why Grace


    was crying. Sure enough, the next second, Grace took a deep breath and said with reddened eyes, “I


    haven’t made up for Rose yet.” And she was getting married and bing a mother.


    At this moment, Grace was no longer as cold as usual.


    William squatted down and held Grace’s hand. He kissed the back of her hand andforted her


    softly. “Grace, Rose has already reconciled with the past. It’s time for you to reconcile. Let bygones be


    bygones. Rose is about to be a mother now, but no matter how old she is, she’s still our precious


    daughter. We can dote on her however we want. In the future, you don’t need to say made up for her.


    We should dote on her.”


    Outside the door, Edward originally did not want to eavesdrop, but when he heard Rose’s name


    mentioned, he could not help but stop in his tracks at the door of the study.


    Only then did he vaguely hear their words. William and Grace in the study were recalling Frank and


    Rose’s childhood.


    Frank opened the door and came out. He saw Edward standing at the door of the study, squinting.


    “What are you doing?”


    “Nothing. Help Rose get some water.” That’s right, a few minutes ago, Rose said that she was thirsty


    and wanted to drink water. Edward went downstairs to take some.


    “Do


    you want to get some water in the study?”


    Edward didn’t answer this question. The water in the cup sloshed for a while. “Let me ask you


    something.”


    Frank leaned his shoulder against the wall and said listlessly, “Okay, ask.”


    “I’ll send the water to Rose first. Wait for me.” Pushing open the door, Edward ced the poured water


    on the table and said


    to Rose on the bed, “Rose, I have something to discuss with Frank. I’ll be over in a while.”


    “Okay, go. Anyway, we could not do anything tonight. You two have a good chat.”


    Rose waved her hand and kept talking.


    Edward was speechless.


    Frank, who was at the door, did not leave. He was waiting for Edward to ask questions. Seeing him


    door.


    After being married to Rose for so long, this was the first time Edward had entered Frank’s room. Last


    time, Frank refused to let Hackett in even if he wanted to. Edward was quite lucky to be invited in.


    He looked around the room and saw all kinds of dolls on the bed. The first thing that came to Edward’s


    mind was that they were indeed siblings.


    The bed was filled with strange things. There were strange nkets and pillows on the bed of Rose,


    and cute dolls on the bed of Frank. His bed was filled with these things. It was difficult to imagine such


    a cold man sleeping in the middle of a pile of dolls at night.


    No wonder Hackett was not allowed to enter the roomst time. Edward stood at the door and


    imagined the reason why Hackett could not enter Frank’s room.


    Frank looked at Edward’s confused gaze. These dolls were all prepared for the little girl. He did not


    intend to exin to Edward. “Do you want to drink? How about coke?”


    “Either is fine.”


    Frank threw him a can of coke, which had a red shell. Edward opened it and took a sip. He asked


    directly, “Can I ask what happened between Rose and Grace before? I don’t mean anything else. I just


    want to know their past. It’s fine if it’s not convenient to say.”


    Frank pulled a stool with one hand. The foot of the stool rotated. He sat down and stood up again. He


    pushed open the balcony door and ced his hands on the railing. He still felt that it was better to talk


    on the balcony.


    Looking down at the night scenery in the courtyard below, the night wind blew and leaves fluttered.


    Edward followed closely behind and leaned on the railing. Frank’s deep voice came from beside him.


    “The past is not pleasant. You know the injury on Rose’s hand.”


    -Edward nodded.


    That’s right, Rose had told Edward about the origin of the scar on her hand, but she did not say clearly


    the cause and effect. At that time, it was not appropriate for Edward to ask too much.


    Frank turned to look at Edward and thought, “This guy is indeed handsome. No wonder he has


    charmed Rose.” He took away his gaze and spoke frankly, exining the real problem of Grace and


    Rose.


    After hearing this, Edward held the Coke tightly in both hands. His fingers pressed down on the Coke,


    and the crisp sound of the Coke can was especially ear-piercing.


    Frank patted his shoulder. “Don’t mention this matter in front of Rose in the future. Pretend that you


    didn’t hear what you heard in the study.”


    Frank could already guess that Edward must have heard William and Grace’s conversation at the door


    of the study. After all, Frank was Grace’s son. In addition, Frank had always been observant. He had


    long guessed that Grace would be sad.


    He opened the door and came out to take a look, but he met Edward standing at the door of the study.


    “Rose’s personality is more rash. You should keep an eye on her and persuade her about things she


    shouldn’t do. She’s actually very meticulous, but sometimes she’s inattentive. Actually, she wants to

    live happily and simply.” Frank’s eyes were fixed on a tree in the courtyard. His words were filled with


    worry for Rose and careful instructions.


    Edward was heartbroken for the previous Rose. He thought that it was simply because she was young


    and insensible and wanted tomit suicide with someone else. He said, “I’ll take good care of her. I’ll


    only let her live happily. I said that I didn’t need her to change anything. She can just be herself.”


    He liked Rose who became herselfl


    At noon the next day.


    During the lunch break, Edward left thepany and went to the Athana Hospital. He nned to


    apany Rose for lunch. He wore a mask and a cap the entire time.


    “Oh my god, who are you?”


    When Rose saw this strange man enter, her hands were still on the buttons of her white coat. She


    paused and suddenly raised


    her voice.


    Edward quickly took off his mask and ced the lunch box on the table. “Rose, it’s me.”


    Rose stood her ground in a daze and stared at Edward. He was wearing a casual sweater, a ck cap,


    ck sunsses, and a ck mask. He was like an escapee.


    She asked in confusion, “Why were you dressed like this when you came to the hospital to have lunch


    with me?” He didn’t even call her.


    Edward opened the lunch boxes and arranged them one by one. He exined patiently, “Didn’t you


    want to keep a low profile? I’m afraid that I’ll be recognized if I wear a suit. I don’t want to attract too


    much attention.”


    Why did she feel that her Edward, who was being hidden, was a little aggrieved?


    Rose was dragged by Edward to wash up her hands. Edward helped to squeeze the hand sanitizer on


    her hand and helped to wash it one finger at a time. She did not refuse. Instead, she enjoyed it very


    much. After washing up, she even reached out her hands and held them in front of him to let him wipe


    them. She was very happy with a smile.


    After washing her hands, Rose was pulled by him to sit down on a stool. Edward carefully ced the


    food in front of her. “These dishes were made by the auntie at home. Try them.”


    She was very touched. Actually, now that she could do it herself, she could also go to the canteen to


    eat. However, Sherri and Natalie were not in the hospital. She didn’t want to eat alone. “Hubby, you


    don’t have to bring me lunch tomorrow.”


    Edward asked in confusion, “Doesn’t it taste good?”


    Rose quickly waved her hand. “No, look, I still have a long time before I can give birth to a child. I’m just


    pregnant now. Yourpany is so busy. You can’t let Richard work for you all the time. He is already


    old. When it’s not convenient for me to move, you cane and help me.” Otherwise, she felt that she


    was useless.


    Rose thought that she was touched by Edward who delivered food every day, but she didn’t want to be


    too pampered.


    Seeing that Edward did not respond and only kept putting food into her bowl, Rose spoke again. She


    picked up her fork and took a bite of the food. “It’s delicious. Hubby, I’m serious. Look, I’m fine. I can


    eat well. You really don’t have to worry so much. Even if you don’te to eat with me, you’re still very


    good to me. You also take good care of me.”


    While they were talking, the door of the consultation room opened and Frank strode in. When he saw


    the table full of dishes, he smiled. “The food is not bad.”


    Edward invited him, “Come here.”


    “I’ve eaten. You guys eat. Rose, this is for your waist.” As he spoke, he stuffed a lumbar support on


    Rose’s chair.


    Rose instantly felt that her waist was supported. She was extremely touched. “Frank, you didn’te


    to give me a lumbar support on purpose, did you?”


    The stubborn Frank did not want Rose to be too touched. “Am I very free? I bought it while I was


    eating. Use it. Oh, this candy is not bad. Try it.”


    Then, Frank ced a can of candy on Rose’s table and strode out of the door. The entire process took


    less than five minutes.”


    Frank did it quickly, but Rose knew that he was just concerned about her and worried about her. It was


    just that Frank was not good at expressing himself, and he disdained to talk about what he had done.


    After Frank left, Rose was touched and almost cried. She smiled and said, “Why is he so stubborn? Do


    you know?”


    Edward took a tissue to wipe her tears that were about to fall and touched her cheek. “Although he


    cares about you very much, he doesn’t want to say it.”


    After a period of interaction, Edward also realized that Frank was actually cold on the outside but warm


    on the inside. Just like Grace, their personalities were simr,


    Frank was also very meticulous. The tenderness would only be given to those he cared about.


    Rose was amused by Edward’s words. “Hubby, you’re getting cuter and cuter. Let’s eat. After eating,


    you have to work hard and earn more money. I might be like Sherri. There’s not enough breast milk to


    feed our child.”


    Edward was speechless.
