After the doctor made his ward rounds at noon, Mia stood aside and listened carefully to the doctor’s advice.

“The last time the patient had a relapse, it was basically due to the same reason. This time, it’s still the same. You must be careful, especially at night,” the doctor advised.

Grandma nodded in acknowledgment.

Mia, who was standing at the side, started to feel confused. When did Grandfather’s illness relapse? Why did he suddenly relapse? Why didn’t she know? A series of questions popped up in her mind.

After the doctor left, Mia couldn’t help but ask Grandmother, “Grandma, when did Grandpa have a relapse? Why didn’t I know? Why didn’t anyone tell me?”

Granny saw Mia’s anxious look and realized that it was because of Grandpa’s rescue.

“The last time seemed to be more than 20 days ago. Grandfather was suddenly critically ill. You weren’t feeling well at that time and stayed with Grandfather in the hospital for so long. We all know that you’ve worked hard. Noah didn’t have the heart to tell you because he wanted you to have a good rest.”

Mia was stunned for a moment. Twenty days ago, wasn’t that when she accidentally got injured when she went to deliver the documents to Noah that day? She remembered that Noah had answered a call and said that Jenny had fainted. Then, he got the chauffeur to send her to the hospital. So Noah didn’t go to accompany Jenny then?

Grandma continued, “At that time, Noah waited outside the emergency room for half the night. Grandma knew that this rascal was just stubborn but soft-hearted. Although he argues with Grandpa, in fact, he is very worried about Grandpa’s health.”

Mia was stunned by Grandmother’s words. So that was how it was?

So she had misunderstood Noah all along.

Mia suddenly felt an urgent need to see Noah. She wanted to ask him exactly what was going on, why he kept it from her, and how many other things he kept from her.

Mia’s mood was suddenly anxious. She didn’t hear a word of what Grandmother said after that. She just thought she had to hurry home.

“Mia, Mia!” Grandma called out to Mia.

Mia, who was lost in her own thoughts, was called out by Grandmarandmother.

“Silly child, what are you thinking? You and Noah don’t want to say anything. Look at this bowl of soup. Noah specially got someone to stew it for you,” Grandma said with a smile.

“Don’t you feel familiar with the taste of it? Noah is such a silly boy. He knows everything in his heart, but once you ask him to say it, he can’t anymore. He was clearly very worried when he saw you faint yesterday, but when you woke up, this guy left quickly.”

Then, Granny patted Mia’s hand and said, “I really can’t guess what you youngsters are thinking, but I know that both of you are good children.”

After hearing her grandmother’s words, Mia looked at the bowl of soup that she had just finished. No wonder it felt so familiar when she drank it just now, as if it was specially made for her preferences.

So Noah was still concerned about her? But hadn’t they just had an argument yesterday? Why was he still being so nice to her? The more Mia thought about it, the more confused she became.

“Grandma, I want to go home now,” Mia suddenly said.

Grandma was stunned for a moment. She did not know what was going on with Mia. However, as a young couple, it was normal for them to have some thoughts. Hence, Grandma smiled and said, “Go back, go back. When you go back, the two of you can have a good chat. If Noah did something shameful, tell Grandma. Although Grandpa is not awake yet, Grandma can still deal with him.”

Mia nodded, touched. She was so lucky to have met Noah’s grandparents after losing her parents for so many years. Tears welled up in her eyes again.

Grandma looked at Mia’s pitiful look and reached out to pat her again. “Good child, go home quickly. Grandpa has me here.” As she spoke, she pushed Mia out..
