By the time Sage, Leah and Hunter arrived at the hospital, Wayne was already in the operating theater. Both Zamora and Mister Wando waited outside. When they saw Sage and Leah, they greeted them in a hurry, "Miss Sage, Miss Leah.""What's Grandpa's situation?" Sage and Leah asked at the same time.Zamora felt very guilty and said, "Mister Braxton pushed him, and he fainted after that. The doctor said he suffers from a cerebral hemorrhage…"Leah covered her mouth with her hands and her eyes reddened. Hunter immediately hugged her and comforted her, "Don't worry, Grandpa will definitely get through and be better. We can pray for him."Sage's face was dark as she asked, "So Braxton laid his hand on Grandpa?""It's my fault. I shouldn't have let him in…" Mister Wando blamed himself for what happened.Zamora regretted it as they had never thought Braxton would be so daring to hurt Wayne, his own father. It was so outrageous.As soon as Braxton entered Rosa Garden, he kept on scolding
After that, the doctor gave some advice since Wayne was already in his senior years, and his blood vessels were brittle. He would need to avoid overeating, avoid experiencing dramatic changes in his emotions, and lastly, he was not allowed to get mad. Sage and the rest of the people listened carefully and nodded to show they understood."Grandpa…"After the surgery, Wayne was still very weak. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Sage, who was sitting beside his bed. His lips trembled, "It's a tragedy for our family, for me to have such as… a son…" Leah cried out loud, "Grandpa!"Sage held Wayne's hand and showed him a smile to comfort him. "Grandpa, don't worry. I'm here. No one can hurt you."After putting Wayne to sleep, the smile on her face disappeared immediately once she was out of the ward."Where is Braxton?"Hunter answered, "He is still in the hospital. He suffered quite a serious injury after being kicked by Mister Jace. His old wound has not healed yet, and now his tai
Wayne was required to stay in the hospital for observation. He also needed to rest for a period of time to avoid complications from happening. Zamora picked two maids with nursing experience from Rosa Garden to take care of Wayne. Sage was still worried and wanted to work from the hospital so she could stay with Wayne. However, Wayne drove her away."I'm not paralyzed. Go do your job!"Leah volunteered to accompany Wayne since she could draw anywhere and her time was more flexible. With guidance from Wayne, she might be able to generate more inspiration.In the end, Hunter showed Sage her weekly schedule."It's true that you don't have that much free time to stay in the hospital. You still need to travel to Brown City this week. There's an operation waiting for you."Despite that, Sage was still worried. She tried to postpone her appointments and headed toward the hospital once she had the time. Sick people were always the weakest and loneliest. Wayne had three sons. They were eit
Even if Zane managed to migrate, he would not survive long without any money. The only way he could get money was to beg on the street like a beggar. In conclusion, Zane's future rested in Sage's hands. Same as Braxton, Sage would not let Zane die so easily.…As Sage pushed open the door of the ward, she put on a cheerful smile on her face and called out sweetly, "Grandpa!"When she saw the two people in the ward, her smile froze. Yoel was sitting beside the bed with his leg crossed and peeling a pear. He greeted with a casual, "Hey!"Sage was speechless. Her face sunk, and she took out an apple from the fruit basket and threw it at him. He caught the apple precisely with the knife as it pierced right through the apple. Followingly, he took a big bite of the apple without washing it. After that, he gave Sage a big smile and passed the peeled pear to Wayne. "Here you go, Grandpa. I took the liberty to answer Sage for you."Wayne accepted the pear with a smile."Why are both of yo
Wayne was very direct with his question. It was like he had already prepared his popcorn and sat tight to watch a movie. Leah and Hunter were both the same as Wayne as they sat side by side in the window. Both of them agreed that the scene looked exactly like in the movie when the king is hosting an event for the princess to choose her husband. Once the princess made up her mind on her selection, the person would become the prince consort.Jace and Yoel both looked at each other and then stared at Sage, anticipating her choice. Both of them were hoping to be chosen by Sage and, at the same time, worried that Sage would choose the other.The room became tense. With everyone looking, Sage pointed at Yoel without any expression on her face and said to Wayne, "This, is not something good."Wayne was out of words. After that, Sage pointed at Jace, "This, is not a thing at all."Wayne was stunned for a bit and amused with Sage's comment.At first, Yoel wanted to speak for himself, but a
"Well, that would be good too," Yoel replied back.Sage yelled, "Scram!"Yoel got scared and pulled Jim over to hide behind him. "You should be worried if you can find a husband with that bad temper of yours," Yoel continued to infuriate Sage while just showing only his head while hiding behind Jim.Sage glared at him fiercely. Yoel immediately ran away while shouting, "It's okay. I like that fiery temper of yours. If you ever think about having a reverse harem, don't forget to invite me. I don't mind sharing you with other men."This time, Sage was so angry that she failed to find words to refute back. She really did think that maybe, just maybe, there was something wrong with Yoel's brain. If she ever had a reverse harem, the first person she would turn into a eunuch would be Yoel.Seeing that angry face, Jim thought it was best for him to leave and continue his work back at the restaurant. The only one left was Jace, the bravest of all."Is Grandpa ok?" he asked lightly.Afte
Hunter and Sage took a long time and finally put Wayne to sleep. While leaving the hospital, Hunter could not hold it in any longer and complained to Sage about the incident earlier."Miss Sage, why did you do that? Why did you tell Wayne about your relationship with Jace? Wayne is still weak. What if he fainted from shock?" Sage said faintly, "Grandpa has experienced a lot and heard of stories. He’s wise enough to accept the truth. This can’t scare him." Hunter thought about it carefully and agreed. Wayne was only slightly surprised to hear that Sage got a divorce after her marriage, but his face immediately turned sullen after that. He questioned, "Did Jace hurt you? Be brave and tell me! I’ll fight for your justice!"Alas, the Norah family was truly protective of their family. Sage was protective of her dearest family, while Wayne was protective of his grandchildren.In short, Wayne marked Jace as the one at fault for his failed relationship with Sage. His granddaughter Sage
"Oh, so this is about Sage…"Mendoza suddenly felt guilty when he heard Sage’s name. He quietly scolded his stupid apprentice in his heart. Jace made a mistake and as a result, Mendoza got scolded for it."Well, isn’t it just money? I’ll tell Jace to give Sage more and treat it as part of the alimony."Mendoza spoke nicely but unexpectedly made Wayne explode in anger."Go to h*ll with your alimony. I can support my granddaughter. Do I need Jace to support her? What I want from him is compensation for Sage's mental anguish!"Mendoza felt that he was about to go deaf. His head was buzzing. "Okay, okay. Stop shouting. Did you forget that you were so close to death? Mental damage? Okay! I’ll make Jace pay!"The two men finally hung up the phone after arguing for a long time.Wayne finally vented his anger after scolding the two old foxes. He returned the phone to the nurse and urged with a smile, "Please don't tell Sage about this."Sage received a call from the nurse when she was
