As an uncle, besides feeling guilty towards Old Master Lawrence, the second person he feels guilty towards is Baron Lawrence.
Baron Lawrence was practically raised by Old Master, his affection for him is evident. He feels too ashad to face them.
"It has nothing to do with you, Second Uncle." Baron Lawrence half-closed his eyes and reassured him calmly.
Nicholas Lawrence knew he was trying to comfort him, pressed his thin lips and didn’t know what to say, "You shouldn’t worry too much, the doctor said they are doing cell screening just in case, it’s not because they suspect anything wrong with Old Master. We should think positively."
"I know."
Nicholas looked at his stern handso face, knowing he hadn’t really listened. He sighed helplessly and said, "I’ll head back to the company first, there’s still work to be done, I’ll co over after handling things."
"Alright." Baron Lawrence still maintained his calm deanor.
Nicholas was equally heavyhearted, patted his shoulder, and left first.
Once he walked away, Enna Clark grasped the man’s slightly cool hand, frowned and asked, "Why are your hands so cold? How about we go back first, and you put on a coat."
"No need."
Enna knew he would refuse, firmly holding his hand, rubbing to warm him up while saying, "Gigi should be waking up soon, I’ll bring her over to accompany Grandpa. With Gigi here, Grandpa’s mood will improve greatly, and when one feels better, their health tends to improve too."
Baron Lawrence turned his head to look at her and suddenly asked, "Where did you two really go for those two to three hours this afternoon?"
Originally, he had installed a GPS on her phone, so he could check her location at any ti. But because she was in the Old Man’s car, which was equipped with the latest global signal jamming system, it was impossible to track their location via phone.
The Housekeeper didn’t expect he was still fixated on this matter, instinctively glanced nervously at Enna Clark.
The Young Master is so stubborn, would Young Madam reveal that they went to the cetery?
For decades, the Old Lord never told the Second Young Master and Young Master about the cetery’s existence. If Young Madam let it slip, the Old Lord might be upset...
He couldn’t help but feel anxious.
Unexpectedly, Enna Clark didn’t disclose it. She only paused slightly when Baron Lawrence first asked, then quickly said, "We didn’t go anywhere special, just went for a walk outside, then I accompanied Grandpa to eat sothing, and we ca back."
"Why did the Old Man suddenly want to go for a walk?" Baron Lawrence could tell she wasn’t being truthful.
Enna Clark said, "Perhaps Grandpa feels like stretching his legs after staying in the hospital all the ti, get a breath of fresh air."
"I want to hear the truth." His deep eyes intensely fixed on hers.
Enna Clark bit her lip, remained silent for a mont, then firmly shook her head at him, "I’m sorry, Baron Lawrence, I can’t say. It’s Grandpa’s secret, I’m obliged to keep it for him. I can only tell you that Grandpa went out for a walk, but I can’t tell you where."
That lonely cetery, the tombstone with the girl smiling brightly, and it was the first ti the Old Master showed such frail sadness...
Although the Old Master never explicitly asked her to keep it a secret, she still felt it was a secret belonging to Old Master Lawrence.
She didn’t know why the Old Master took her there, she only knew she needed to guard this secret for him.
