When he asked the question, Armand’s hand clenched up suddenly, he was afraid to hear bad news.
Theresa’s hand felt a bit painful from the clenching, but she didn’t speak up to remind, as she knew that Armand was very nervous at that time.
“So the current situation is, because of the patient’s old age, she lost consciousness due to the shock, but it’s not life-threatening. There are some bruises on her body, and they have been treated, so nothing too serious.”
Armand was so excited that he was bewildered, he didn’t know how to describe his mood. He held Theresa’s face and kissed her lips hard, smiling like a child, “My grandma is fine.”
Theresa had never seen him like this before. He was like a child who hadn’t grown up yet.
“Don’t be in such a hurry to be happy first. She’s in her old age, so she should not be mentally stimulated.” The nurse coldly interrupted.
Only then did Armand realized that he had just lost his manners. He coughed lightly and said “yes,” seriously.
The nurse raised her eyes to look at him, her voice remained very cold, “She can’t be stimulated again in the future. At such an age, it’s easy to ‘pass away’, she may not be able to wake up the next time. Being the younger generation, you should treat her kindly.”
Armand nodded, “I understand.”
“You guys wait here, the patient will be pushed out soon.” After saying that, the nurse turned around and left.
Armand was calmer this time around, he stood at the door and waited. Not long after, the door of the examination room slid open, and Elizabeth was pushed out. She was awake. Seeing her grandson, she reached out her hand and Armand bent down to hold it and touched her forehead. As he was close, Armand only found out that there was a slap mark on her face.
He was in too much of a hurry to see the palm print on her face when he was sending her to the hospital.
Armand face sank instantly, Sampson Herbert that bastard!
Now he knew why the nurse was so indifferent. The nurse must have thought that he was abusing her.
Armand kissed the back of Elizabeth’s hand, “It’s okay now, I’m here.”
“Kid, who was that?” Elizabeth had seemed to only have figured it out now, that Armand seemed to know the person who had abducted her.
“Just a crazy person, and he has been taken away by the police. Let’s not think about it okay, you need to recuperate.” Armand coaxed Elizabeth.
Theresa helped the medical staff to push Elizabeth into the ward. She didn’t need to be hospitalized, but needed to be observed in the hospital overnight, and could leave tomorrow.
After arriving at the ward, Armand carried Elizabeth over to the hospital bed and Theresa helped the medical staff to move the gurney out.
“Thank you.”
“No worries.” The medical staff smiled at Theresa.
She then closed the door, turned around and walked in.
“Theresa, come. Come over.” Elizabeth waved her hand at Theresa, and she walked over.
Elizabeth took her hand and put it into Armand’s palm, “The only reliable thing that Armand has done since growing up, is to marry you.”
Theresa was so embarrassed that she lowered her head.
Armand held Theresa’s hand, “Grandma, what, now that you have a granddaughter-in-law, you don’t want your grandson anymore?”
“What do I need you for, all you do is piss me off.” Elizabeth pretended to be angry.
Armand immediately gave in, “I won’t make you angry from now on.”
The nurse had said it, Elizabeth was too old to be stimulated, so he had to follow her wishes.
“I’m hungry.” Elizabeth suddenly said.
“I’ll go buy you something.” Armand stood up, “What do you want to eat?”
Elizabeth gave him a wink, but Armand didn’t grasp the intent of her eye gesture, and asked, “Why is your eye twitching, is it uncomfortable?”
Elizabeth was speechless.
She rolled her eyes inside her heart and thought to herself, was this child stupid, how could he not notice the signal?
Theresa on the other hand, had noticed it instead. Elizabeth was trying to send her away with an excuse, so she took the initiative and said, “I’ll go buy it. What do you want to eat grandma?”
“Get me some porridge.” Elizabeth said.
“Is there anything else?” Theresa asked again.
Elizabeth waved her hand, “No.”
“Then I’ll go buy it, Armand you take good care of grandma.”
Theresa headed for the door, and only then did Armand understand Elizabeth’s intention. He glanced at her, then followed Theresa out, and explained, “Maybe because my grandma’s sick so she wanted to say a few words to me in secret, hope you won’t mind.”
Theresa smiled, she could see that Armand and Elizabeth had a very good relationship, and she understood.
“I won’t mind. Go in, I’ll go buy something to eat. What do you want to eat? I’ll buy it together.” Armand had also been busy for almost the whole night, guessing that he should be hungry by now.
“I want to eat spring rolls.” Armand just said what he wanted directly without being too polite.
Theresa said okay.
“You should go in, grandma is alone, and she might get anxious from waiting.” Theresa waved her hand and started walking away.
Armand looked at her back and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously. She is very understanding.
Armand turned around to go back into the ward and closed the door. He walked to the bed and sat down, “What is it that you want to say that you have to send her away? It’s a good thing that she has a good temper and doesn’t care. If she was someone with a bad temper, she was going to get angry.”
Elizabeth smiled, “Are you trying to get justice for you wife?”
“No, no.” Armand hurriedly waved his hands, “I can’t forget the kindness of grandma’s upbringing even after having a wife.”
Elizabeth sighed, “I’m old.”
“Grandma’s not old.” Armand leaned over and acted cute in front of her.
Elizabeth was amused, but her smile sank very quickly, and it was replaced with a serious face, “I think that Theresa is very understanding and reasonable. She’s good-looking too, so you treat her well.”
“I know, you’ve said it a few times already.” Armand wasn’t being impatient but was rather just reminding her.
Elizabeth sighed again, “You lost your parents when you were a few years old, and it was me who raised you up in a difficult environment…”
Speaking of the things in the past, Armand half-hearted attitude was gone, it was as if he had turned into a different person.
“Don’t blame your mother anymore…”
“Why shouldn’t I blame her?!” Armand’s eyes were red. Even after so many years, he still had never let go.
Theresa was on her way to buy the things when she realized she didn’t have any money on her. She came out in such a hurry that she didn’t bring her phone and money with her. When she went back to ask Armand for money, she overheard their conversation outside the door.
“I would have a father, if it weren’t for her. She only cared about her own pleasure!” Armand was getting more and more worked up as he spoke. After a while, he was also feeling that he shouldn’t be like this. So much time had passed, and he should let go, but he couldn’t suppress the anger inside.
Elizabeth’s cloudy eyes were filled with tears, her hand that was holding onto Armand was shaking, “It’s grandma’s fault. I shouldn’t have mentioned things in the past.”
“What does this have to do with you?” Armand smiled bitterly. He was unlucky to have a shameless mother and even his father was also entrapped within that cicumstance.
Theresa froze for a moment, what did they mean by that? Armand’s parents?
But then she thought that it was very rude for her to eavesdrop like that, so she lifted her hand and knocked on the door.
Armand took a breath to calm down, then stood up and went to open the door.
The door was opened, and seeing that it was Theresa, Armand said, “You’re so quick to buy the things…” Yet his eyes glanced down only then to find her hands were empty as she was not carrying anything. His brows couldn’t help but furrow.
