On the other end of the line, Willow Grant was still waiting for news from Susan Stone, her expression growing increasingly grim.
At this hour, Susan Stone should still be awake. Why hasn’t she heard from her?
Could it be... she really gave up on her?
No way!
Since being soft doesn’t work, she’ll have to resort to tougher asures.
Her parents are coming, tomorrow she’ll take them to find Susan Stone!
Before long, the Grant parents finally arrived.
Willow Grant deliberately tid it just right, cooking herself a pack of instant noodles, then making her room a ss, even applying so pale makeup to make herself look quite desolate.
As soon as Mrs. Grant saw Willow Grant like this, tears imdiately stread down her face.
"Oh, my dear daughter! How did you end up like this?"
Willow Grant remained silent, simply shaking her head.
Mr. Grant’s expression wasn’t much better, as he spoke coldly: "Go make dinner for Willow first. Eating instant noodles like this isn’t right. Willow, don’t worry, tomorrow I’ll take you to find Susan Stone and demand justice!"
...
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
Today, Damian Knight had to go on a business trip. When Sumr Monroe woke up, there was a breakfast bought by Damian Knight and a note beside her.
She picked up the note and glanced at it.
"One-day business trip to Rivain, will be back by noon tomorrow."
Sumr smiled, even though he had already told her about the trip last night before bed, he still took the trouble to leave a note today.
Damian Knight was more considerate than she imagined.
She was just about to have breakfast and go back to sleep when Ronan Kingston’s call ca through.
She pressed the answer button, but it was Old Master Kingston’s voice that ca through.
"Miss Monroe, when are you coming over? My koala here has been moved from the ICU to a regular ward, but I don’t know what’s gotten into him. No matter how much I scold him, he refuses to cooperate with the nurses for the IV therapy."
Could the refusal to cooperate with the IV be due to so traumatic aftereffects?
"I understand," Sumr replied, "I’ll be there in an hour."
"Alright, alright." Old Master Kingston hung up the phone, and Sumr then got up to brew so dicine in the kitchen.
An hour later, Sumr headed to Ross Hospital with a thermos cup of herbal dicine.
Just as Old Master Kingston had said, upon arriving at the ward floor, Sumr coincidentally saw a nurse being ushered out of the room by Julian Kingston.
Ronan Kingston ran out to apologize for Julian Kingston.
"I’m sorry, my brother usually isn’t like this. I’ll calm him down and you can co back later."
"No worries," the nurse said understandingly with a smile, "Illness indeed affects one’s mood. It’s important for the family to talk to the patient more, and in ti, he’ll get better. I’ll co back later."
"Alright, thank you."
Ronan Kingston looked up just in ti to see Sumr approaching.
He felt pleased but at the sa ti conflicted.
"Boss lady."
There’s no way he could call her sister-in-law, but boss lady works.
Sumr nodded and, instead of walking into the ward, pulled Ronan Kingston to the end of the corridor to ask, "Your grandfather called , I saw what just happened. What’s going on with Julian Kingston? Why is he suddenly refusing to cooperate with the treatnt?"
Ronan Kingston bit his lip, saying with guilt, "This is all my fault, I shouldn’t have said it in front of my brother."
"What exactly happened?" Sumr asked seriously.
Ronan Kingston hung his head, saying, "My grandfather, for so reason, has decided he wants you as his granddaughter-in-law and even told my brother that once he gets better, he’ll have him marry you. I noticed my brother seed quite happy, and worried he’d be even more disappointed later, so I told him about you being married to Damian Knight. And then he beca like this..."
