Cosset You Forever -
Chapter 378 Excitedly Turned His Look
That night, Harry has thought a lot and has made a lot of decisions.
Around 7 o'clock next morning
Lola pushed the bedroom door open, but no one was there. Only the quilt was in its original place.
Harry didn't come back last night. Was he that busy and pressured at work recently?
At that moment, her phone suddenly rang in Nicole's room. The maid who was dressing Nicole fetched it for her.
Was it Joey? "Hello, Joey."
"Miss Lola, Miss Nicole will be sent to Blue Sky Kindergarten today. I have told the driver its address. He will take care of it." This morning, he got a call from Harry. He knew right there and then that things weren't going well.
Lola answered okay. But she looked at the vacant bedroom, hesitated, then asked, "Harry... Was Harry in the office last night?"
"No, Harry's grandfather was sent to the hospital last night. They are still at the hospital now." Joey told the truth to her. Harry didn't know Lola would ask about him, so he hasn't told Joey what to do on this matter.
"What happened to Harry's grandfather?" That news made Lola anxious and sad. Harry's grandfather treated her very well in the past. They were very close to each other.
"At first, it was a stroke caused by hypertension. Now, it had led to partial paralysis. He is now at the ICU of Chuck's hospital."
After hanging up the phone, Lola stood frozen for quite some time. She was so sad and tears were welling in her eyes. The news of the sudden paralysis of Harry's grandfather filled her with astonishment. She could hardly take it.
She should pay a visit in the hospital later. But then she remembered Harry.
Harry must be so tired now. He was always trying hard to make her happy while running the company. Now, his grandfather was in the hospital... There were so many things on his plate right now.
She finished breakfast uneasily. She just wanted to rush to the hospital. But today was the first day that Nicole will be going to her new school., and she didn't want her to go through this alone.
So she accompanied her to her new school first. Nicole soon became friends with other kids. She was always a friendly kid.
Aside from that, she was Harry's daughter. All teachers and the principal took good care of her. Lola left in relief. She knew then that the new school will be safe for Nicole.
Outside the kindergarten, Lola immediately called Joey and learned that Harry was still in the hospital.
She went back to the mansion first, packed the breakfast specially made by Mrs. Du, then asked the driver to send her to the hospital.
ICU Floor
Harry wearily collapsed on the chair in the corridor. He has persuaded Kevin to go back to the old house to rest.
Grandfather was still in danger, so he must stay here.
"Clank. Clank." The sound off high-heel shoes aroused him into a bit of expectation.
Was it her? He excitedly turned his look to where the sound came from.
She was wearing a light purple dress, and white high-heel shoes. Her long hair cascaded onto her shoulder.
She came in as the sun rose behind her. It was majestic.
He already knew how pretty Lola could be. But this was the first time he had seen her basking in the golden sunlight. Her arm in a cast hasn't impacted such beauty, not even a little bit. She then came to his side while he was still entranced under her spell.
Lola looked at Harry----he has grown a new stubble, his eyes looked blood-shot, and his hair was in a real mess. He had the charm of a mature man.
She calmed herself down a bit before asking, "I heard your grandfather was in hospital. How's he doing right now?"
The mention of his grandfather pulled Harry from his thoughts. Without saying anything, he pulled Lola in his arms and let her sit on his lap.
Lola was about to reject this gesture, but with the cast on her left arm, she couldn't really move.
Harry pressed his face on her belly, closed his weary eyes and said in a weary voice, "Grandfather is still in a coma." Her smell was his weakness. He longed for it all the time.
As long as she was around, he could feel relieved.
"Why did his blood pressure suddenly surge? What happened?" She spitted out her confusion.
Harry shook his head, unwilling to tell her what happened in the company.
Lola didn't force him to answer. "Get off me and have your breakfast first. You must be so hungry and tired." He should at least take good care of himself before taking care about others. Lola thought to herself.
He followed her advice and let go of her. But before that, he sweetly rubbed his head on her.
Lola looked at him speechlessly. Then she stood up. There was a guests' lounge beside the ICU.
She raised her head and led Harry inside. They went into the lounge together. Lola put the lunch box on the table while Harry freshened up in the restroom. When Harry came out, Lola was struggling to open the box with one hand.
He grinned, swiftly opened the box, took the breakfast out and began to eat.
His happy look relieved Lola a bit. Then she walked out of the lounge and peeked into the ICU.
Harry's grandfather was plugged with lots of tubes. He laid peacefully on the bed. Around him were all kinds of medical devices.
Alas! An old man had to go through all this. It was really heartbreaking.
She didn't know much about paralysis, but believed that Harry's grandfather would recover soon since the medical equipment and technology were so advanced now.
The corridor was really quiet. Lola leaned against the ICU door, praying that Harry's grandfather would recover soon.
Harry ate up his breakfast pretty quickly. When he came out of the lounge, Lola was still gaping at the ICU.
He held her from behind and took her to the chair nearby. "Honey, I can stay here. You can go home to rest. Nicole needs you, too." He could take care of his grandfather.
But Lola shook her head, "I can take care of him. You have so many things to do in the company. You go back. I will be here." She has planned to leave when Nicole has adapted to her new school. But with Harry in deep trouble, how could she go back to A Country now?
Since she couldn't leave now and had nothing to do in the mansion, she might as well stay here to help him with his serious matters.
Harry shook his no. With the painful injury on her arm, he couldn't let her stay here alone.
"I'm fine. You go home. Thank you for your offer." After grandfather went through the critical phase, he could then find a nurse to take care of him.
"No, you go to the company. I will stay here for you. If you reject me again, I will be angry." She pretended to frown and turned her back against him.
Harry didn't want to upset her, not even a little bit. So he put his hands on her shoulder and said, "Fine, I will go to the company. My father might come at noon, then you can go home to rest." He had many things to deal with in the company as well. He should be present there.
"Hurry up." She began pushing him out impatiently.
Harry saw her impatient look, smiled bitterly and said, "Call me if something happened."
"I know. I know. Stop nagging me. Just go." With so many things in the company, how come he didn't seem worried at all? Lola thought that she was more worried than him. Even she began to feel anxious for Harry.000
