Chapter 674 Tobias and Stefania’s Thoughts
Gregory looked at Kieran with wide, innocent eyes.Material ? N?velDrama.Org.
When Kieran saw Gregory’s doe-eyed look, he couldn’t help butment, “Oh, no. Oh, no. We haven’t seen each other for too long. Greg, how could you treat your uncle like this?”
At once, Gregory giggled at his uncle’s dramatics.
While they were joking around, they finally arrived at the hospital.
Nichs took Gregory into the ward and saw Remus sitting on the bed with his face as pale as a sheet.
Likewise, Remus saw Nichs and his facial expression turned ghastly almost instantaneously.
However, Nichs paid no mind to his grandfather’s expression as he greeted his parents indifferently. Then, he asked with concern, “What did the doctor say about Grandpa’s condition?”
“The doctor says he’s fine. He just needs to take a good rest.” Tobias also sinctly told his son what the doctor had to say about Remus’ condition.
Nichs nodded when he heard that it was something his grandfather could recover from. “That’s a relief.”
Remus abruptly let out a mocking snort as he asked, “What’s the matter? Are you disappointed to see that I’m fine?” It was somewhat out of the blue, and no one knew how Nichs’ earlier remark had provoked Remus.
“You’re overthinking again. You should really stop twisting the sincerity in my words.” A helpless Nichs looked at Remus.
Remus let out a harrumph as he expressed his disdain for Nichs, “If it weren’t for my illness, would you even visit me?”
Nichs frowned slightly as he knew that Remus was unhappy that he was going to Yveve to meet Tessa.
“I rushed back immediately when I heard that you were ill.”
“In that case, should I thank you for purposely rushing back to see me?” Remus rebuked Nichs angrily.
At this juncture, Nichs was slightly displeased by his grandfather’s attitude. So, he pursed his lips tightly as he remained in stony silence.
Gregory looked at Remus and then at Nichs. Then, as if he noticed something, he took the initiative to creep over to Remus’ side. “Great-Grandpa, are you feeling better now? I heard that you’re sick, so I’m very worried.” He raised his head and looked up at Remus with concern in his puppy eyes.
As Remus looked at the adorable little guy, he couldn’t be bothered to hold on to his anger toward Nichs. “Don’t worry, Greg. I’m fine.”
“I’m happy you’re fine, Great-Grandpa. You must take good care of yourself, so you’ll always be in good health,” Gregory said with his bell-like voice as he looked at Remus admiringly.
This utterly distracted Remus from his anger as Gregory’s adorable manner utterly captured him. “Yes, yes. I will definitely take good care of myself and live a long, happy life with you, okay?” He smiled as he teased Gregory.
Gregory nodded in eptance of Remus’ words.
Just like that, the tense atmosphere in the ward eased.
During this period, J wanted to chat with Nichs to lessen the distance between them.
Unfortunately, Nichs had ignored herpletely. He even treated her as though she didn’t exist and didn’t even spare her a nce the entire time.
After Remus yed with Gregory for a while, he was finally willing to speak to Nichs civilly. “I heard from Miss Brenner that you were injured. How are you feeling now?”
“It’s nothing serious.”
Nichs decided to hide the actual situation from him as he didn’t want Remus to worry, especially since Remus was still on bed rest.
Then, the two talked for a while, and Remus fell asleep due to exhaustion.
Once Stefania saw that Remus was asleep, she urged with great concern as she knew that Nichs had made the trip even though he was injured, “Bring Greg back and rest. Your Dad and I will be here, so your grandpa will be alright.”
As he was indeed a little tired, he didn’t refuse her instructions. Not to mention that it was way past Gregory’s bedtime, considering how he had been yawning several times these past hours.
“Well then, I’ll take my leave. Let me know if anything happens.” With that, Nichs held Gregory’s hand and left.
During this period, he didn’t even bother greeting J as he left.
She chased after them without even thinking twice as she was upset by his cold shoulder.
In the meantime, Kieran watched from the side, tapping his chin in contemtion.
However, Stefania and Tobias didn’t mind her poor manners.
After all, Nichs was an outstanding man. Hence, it was normal fordies to chase after him.
Besides, they thought J was a decent candidate to be their daughter-inw. They felt she was at least much better than Tessa. Hence, they intended to let the rtionship between J and Nichs blossom.
Meanwhile, outside the ward, Nichs was unaware of his parents’ thoughts.
When J blocked his path, his facial expression turned frigid. “Is there a problem?”
J felt a pang in her heart when she looked at his indifferent expression.
Even so, she still showed her concern. “Is your injury really healed? Mr. Spurse gave me a few boxes of special medicine a few days ago. They’re very effective in healing wounds. How about I send you some tonight?”
