Visiting Old Mr. Benedict
Not wanting to continue discussing the topic, Nicole swiftly changed the subject.
“By the way, has Grandpa’s condition improved? I have been so preoccupied nowadays that I haven’t
had the time to drop by for a visit.” Speaking of Benedict, Anna instantly glowed and she stretched out
her hand to hold Nicole’s.
“He has been doing fine these days. He can’t move around because he has just had an operation, but
he is awake and can talk. Wendy and Colton have been taking turns to talk to him these two days.”
As she spoke, she seemed to suddenly recall something.
“He has been complaining about you not dropping by to see him after he woke up. He might even be
feeling bitter about it now. How about you head over and see him?”
Wanting to do so, Nicole nodded. “I will go now,” she agreed, in which Anna let go of her hand.
It was almost time for dinner anyway.
“I know about what’s been going on lately. I have asked for Hayden to be brought over and have dinner
together later. It would be better for you to stay here for a few days while we wait for the truth to unveil.”
Hearing that, Nicole parted her lips to reject, only to have the older woman interject before Nicole could
speak when Anna saw her hesitation.
“Now that Old Mr. Benedict is recovering from such a serious illness, I am sure he will be happier to
have you and Hayden around. Although Hayden is Colton’s child, I will not force Hayden to accept
Colton as his father. You can rest assured.”
Nicole finally felt more at ease when she saw the gentle look on Anna’s face. With a nod, she gave her
gratitude.
“I owe you my thanks, Mrs. Gardner.”
“There’s no need to stand on ceremony between family members.” Anna laughed. “I will head over to
the kitchen to see what is good. You can go ahead.”
After Nicole gave a short reply, she went to Benedict’s room and pushed the door open.
With how well the closed curtains blocked out the afterglow of the setting sun outside, the room was
fairly dim.
There was a small night light lit by the bedside, where the dim yellow light shone on Benedict’s face,
giving it a hint of warmth.
The man had opened his eyes when Nicole entered the room.
His eyes were blurry from being woken up, but they gradually regained their clarity as he responded
when he saw someone walking into his room.
As Benedict propped up his hands and started to get up, Nicole quickly stepped forward to grab his
arm and help him up.
He was squinting as he let out a relaxed yawn.
“Open the curtains, will you? It is too dark here. It is making me uncomfortable.”
She nodded and quickly opened the curtains. The evening sun wasn’t too strong, but the remaining half
of the sun still hanging in the sky dyed the clouds red.
Benedict then turned his head and glanced outside. He must have been sleeping for quite some time
now as he had lost his sense of time.
Eyes narrowed, he thoughtfully looked outside before he let out a long sigh. “I can’t believe my nap
went on till the evening. I even complained before that I only sleep like this because I was sick. Turns
out I am lazy.”
She couldn’t help but let a laugh slip when she heard him beat himself up.
Walking back from the window, Nicole pulled up a stool and sat in front of his bed. Although there was
no makeup on her face, her skin was still glowing and soft. She had a smile on her face when she
softly reassured him, “It is normal for the body to be fatigued after surgery. You won’t feel this way
anymore after you have recuperated.”
He nodded and agreed, “I will take extra good care of myself then. Those punks don’t let me move
around or get out of bed these few days. I might start sprouting mushrooms soon.” He quite trusted her
words now.
Benedict still behaved like a child despite his age. When he said this, he was obviously a little upset
from how he puffed up.
