Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Noah remembered how his grandfather had looked all these years. It was as if there was nothing his grandfather couldnât do. Since he was a child, his grandfather had always been his idol, a role model for him.
Before Mia appeared, he had been learning and following his grandfatherâs footsteps. However, after Mia appeared, his grandfather started to change. When he forced himself to marry Mia, Noah felt that his grandfather no longer loved him. At the same time, he also felt that his grandfather was old. Were all marriage events so rushed?
Hence, all these years, he had been working hard to prove that Old Master had made a wrong decision back then. However, he had not really heard Old Master talk to him about what had happened back then and was prepared to leave. If Old Master was no longer around, then the direction that he had worked hard for all these years would be gone in an instant. Noah felt an unprecedented sadness begin to assault him.
Ding! The door of the operating room opened. Noah, who was deep in thought, woke up immediately. He hurriedly went up to ask Grandma about the situation.
âThe patientâs condition is stable for the time being. He will be transferred to the intensive care unit for observation for a day. If thereâs nothing else, he can be transferred back to the ward tomorrow,â the emergency doctor said to Noah and Grandma as he took off his mask.
After hearing the doctorâs words, Grandmaâs body softened. Noah held her. âGrandma, Grandpa is fine. Donât collapse. Iâll send you back to your room to rest first.â
After spending half the night waiting, Grandma did not have much energy left. Hence, she nodded and allowed Noah to help her back to the ward.
When Grandpa was finally pushed back to his room at noon the next day, Noah and Grandma finally felt relieved.
âBrat, what are you doing here? Whereâs Mia?â Grandpa had just come out of the ICU and was barely able to gather his strength to curse.
Noah felt happy when he saw his grandfather scolding him the moment he opened his mouth. His heart, which had been hanging in the air for the entire night, finally relaxed.
âOld Master, canât you ask about me first?â Noah pretended to be angry and jealous.
Grandma couldnât stand it anymore. She pushed Noah out of the ward. âDonât bother about him. Go back and look after Mia. Iâm here with Grandpa.â
Noahâs heart had already flown to Miaâs side when he saw that his grandfather had gotten better. He did not know how Miaâs condition was. The driver replied that he had sent Mia to another hospital, but he could not get through to Mia, so Noah was extremely anxious.
After leaving the hospital, Noah got the chauffeur to rush to the hospital that Mia had mentioned yesterday.
Noah, who did not even bother to change his clothes, sped all the way. Once he got out of the car, he rushed to find Mia.
The chauffeur at the back panted and shouted, âPresident,â but his legs were too short to keep up with Noah.
They finally caught up with the CEO when they arrived at the hospitalâs consultation counter. At this moment, Noah had already been asking if any patient called Mia had been sent over.
However, the nurse at the reception desk kept saying that she did not manage to find anything.
The driver, who was panting as he rushed over, pulled Noah and said, âCEO, yesterday⦠yesterday Madam found a doctor friend. I think his name is⦠Leo.â The driver panted a few times before he finally finished his sentence.
Noah, who was beside him, was already extremely anxious. He only wanted to stretch out his leg and kick the driver twice. After hearing him finish, he hurriedly asked the nurse, âIs there a doctor named Leo?â
The nurse thought for a while and said, âYes. If you want to look for him, just turn right to the second room.â
Just as the nurse finished speaking, Noah was almost out of sight. The chauffeur was also dumbfounded when he saw the presidentâs speed. Who said that the president had an ambiguous relationship with that female celebrity, Jenny? It was definitely a rumor.
On this side, Noah finally found Leoâs room. He didnât care if there was anyone inside, and rushed straight in. The people who were watching were shocked.
Leo was surprised, too. The man whoâd barged in was wearing a crumpled suit. He looked disheveled. Even the beard on his face looked like it hadnât been shaved.
âWhereâs Mia? Whereâs Mia?â Noahâs slightly anxious voice sounded.
So it was Miaâs scumbag husband. Leo instantly became enraged.
The anger that he had accumulated the day before had yet to dissipate, and he had just delivered himself to the door. However, there was still a patient in the room, so Leo couldnât flip out. Hence, he glanced sideways at Noah and said, âMia isnât here. Please knock first.â
Noah was already feeling extremely anxious and did not have time to pay attention to Leoâs attitude. He only asked again, âWhere is Mia?â
âYouâre asking about your own wife. Sorry, but Iâm not sure,â Leo said angrily.
Leoâs assistant saw that things werenât going well, so he tried to calm the patient down first. âYouâre looking for Mia, arenât you? Sheâs just been discharged home.â
As soon as he finished speaking, Leo glared at his assistant angrily. The poor assistant didnât know what was going on. He simply felt that if this went on, he was afraid that Leo would start a fight with this man, so he told Noah first.
After getting the answer he wanted, Noah glanced at Leo and left.
Noah, who had returned to the car, tugged at his collar angrily. âWhatâs been going on lately?â
Heâd always see men who cared so much about Mia. Mia was his wife, the little pet heâd always kept. The thought of other people coveting Mia made Noah especially unhappy.
The chauffeur saw the Presidentâs irritated expression and asked softly, âPresident, are we going home now?â
