When Easton Hols walked over, he also saw Alice Turner standing not far from the hospital room door. He thought sothing had happened, and his steps instinctively quickened significantly.
"What happened?"
As soon as he walked over, he couldn’t wait to ask. While asking, he turned his head to look at the hospital room, his stern face now full of concern.
"Nothing, I just ca out to take a phone call."
Seeing Easton Hols’ worried expression, Alice Turner knew he mistakenly thought sothing had happened to Lily Turner, so she hurriedly explained to him.
Upon hearing this, the worry that Easton Hols just felt gradually settled back, but he was puzzled about why Alice Turner ca out to make a phone call.
Why did she need to hide from her sister to take a call? Could it be a call from her family?
That must be it!
The news about his wife being hospitalized had already spread like wildfire online, and the Turner Family couldn’t possibly avoid seeing it; everyone in his family must have seen it.
"Oh!"
He just replied with a faint "oh" and opened the door to walk into the hospital room.
Alice Turner reached out to call Easton Hols to ask sothing, but it was too late; Easton Hols had already walked into the room. She put down her raised hand and followed him into the room with large strides.
She poked her head around the hospital room and only after seeing no suspicious people did she feel assured enough to close the door.
Seeing Easton Hols and Alice Turner co in one after the other, Lily Turner could no longer pay attention to the TV. She tossed the remote control onto the bed and turned to look at the two people who walked in.
"How did it go?"
Before Easton Hols had even reached her, Lily Turner anxiously asked him.
Seeing her so anxious, he knew she had been worrying all along. Taking two large steps to the bedside, he reached out to touch her head. "Everything is resolved, so you can rest easy now."
As he spoke, he had already sat down beside her.
"Really? You didn’t have any conflict with those people, did you?" Lily Turner wasn’t questioning Easton Hols’ statent or his ability to handle matters; she was rely curious about how he managed the situation.
Upon hearing this, Easton Hols pinched her nose, "Don’t worry about how I handle things."
He clearly understood what she ant with her question, but he still skirted around the topic.
"You..."
"Don’t waste your energy worrying about these trivial matters anymore."
Lily Turner had just uttered the word "You," when Easton Hols interrupted her, not wanting her to dwell on this issue any longer. He shifted the topic elsewhere, "What would you like for lunch? I’ll call Auntie Li to make sothing for you."
The news of her hospitalization had spread from online to TV, and his grandfather inadvertently saw this information while watching TV. He just called to ask if it was true.
He could deceive others, but he couldn’t lie to the grandfather who raised him, and he didn’t want to lie to his grandfather either.
"Grandfather also knows that I’m in the hospital?"
The point of concern for Lily Turner was different from what Easton Hols intended to convey in his words. He asked what she wanted to eat, but she picked up on a clue from his words.
He nonchalantly raised his eyebrows and sighed, "Grandfather is now your fan; your matters are what he’s most concerned about."
Due to her presence, his grandfather had started to follow celebrities like young people do.
It’s not an exaggeration to say that grandfather is her fan; his grandfather is imnsely concerned about her matters, not only following entertainnt news related to her but also the movies and TV shows she’s been in.
In short, his grandfather is exceptionally attentive to all her affairs, so much so that he, as the grandson, is almost becoming a grandson-in-law in his grandfather’s eyes.
