Chapter 11 Chapter 11 âIâm going to see Celia. She was seriously injured while protecting me. If it wasnât for her, I wouldnât be able to stand here safely.â
James and Jack who had been silent all the time, exchanged glances and then shook their heads with a sigh.
They didnât like Elizabeth either since Elizabeth didnât come from a wealthy or powerful family. However, their father loved Elizabeth dearly, so they had to show some respect to her for the sake of their father.
Grandpa Tomas kept worrying about Elizabeth. He turned around to ask the nurse beside him, âHow is the patient?â
âNo worries, sir. With Dr. Edwards, everything will be fine.â
Knowing Nelson would take care of Elizabeth, Grandpa Tomas felt at ease a great deal. Nelson was a wellâknown surgical expert in Los Angeles who was proficient in treatment. Anyone seeking his treatment should make an appointment ten days in advance.
After a while, Nelson came out of the emergency room. He saw that the elders of the Yorks, so he took off his mask and went up to greet them, âGrandpa Tomas, Uncle James, and Uncle Jackâ
âHow is Elizabeth? Is she alright?â Grandpa Tomas was eager to know since he had been waiting to see Elizabeth for a long time.
Grandpa Tomas snorted coldly, making it clear that he was not willing to see Celia.
âI wonât go. Iâll just wait here for Liz to come out. Leave me alone and go as you âDad,â Jack wanted to persuade him, but he held back his words at the sight of his fatherâs gloomy face. He could only look at James for help.
âFather,â James had to say to his father himself about this matter, âJust go and see Celia. It wonât take you a long time. Anyway, Celia was hurt because of Sam. I know you have always loved Sam the most. Well, I think we should express our gratitude to Celia in that she saved Sam from this fatal accident.â
âYeah, thatâs right. Dad, you..â
Grandpa Tomas glared at his two sons and bellowed, âDonât nag me here. I said I wonât go. Canât you hear me? Iâll wait for Liz to come out.â
âDad, donât be mad. It does you no good. Iâll let Jack stay here with you. And Iâll go to see Celia and come back soon.â Seeing his father lose his temper, James softened his attitude.
Grandpa Tomasâs expression softened, yet he still said in a tough tone, âBoth of you get away from me. You make me annoyed.â
Jack and James were fine with this since they were not willing to stay here and wait for Liz.
âAlright, dad. Weâll catch up to you later.â
11:41N Chapter 11 Grandpa Tomas didnât bother to pay any attention to them and kept staring at the emergency room.
As soon as Jack and James walked away, Elizabeth was pushed out of the emergency room by the nurse, Seeing this, Grandpa Tomas stepped forward eagerly. Elizabeth was on an IV in her hand, and she was already asleep.
âHow i is she? Why doesnât she wake up?â Grandpa Tomas felt distressed at the sight of her pale face.
He blamed himself for letting Liz hurt.
âSir, no worries. The soothing effect of our medicine has put the patient to sleep. She should rest well tonight.â
Hearing this, Grandpa Tomas was finally at ease. Elizabeth was sent to the general ward to rest.
At night, Elizabeth woke up due to the torment of a headache.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Grandpa Tomas dozing off beside the bed. Elizabethâs heart did a flip and mixed feelings welled up within her.
It was Grandpa Tomas who loved her deeply all the time since she was a child. He had made her who she was today, and she couldnât be more grateful for his rearing.
It was really unfilial for her to make him worry about her at this age.
âGrandpa!â Elizabeth yelled in a low voice, with tears of excitement in her eyes.

ï¤Chapter 428 âOh, my girl. Youâre awake!â Grandpa Tomas was a light sleeper and woke up immediately when he heard her voice. Seeing Elizabeth waking up, the wrinkles around his eyes deepened as he smiled. He leaned forward with a smile and asked, âAre you good? Do you want something to eat?â
Elizabeth was still light in the head and didnât dare to move at the moment. âIâm not hungry yet. Grandpa, itâs so late. Why donât you go back to rest?
Iâm fine.â
âOh, come on. Stop talking nonsense.â
âGrandpa, Iâm fine, really. What about going through the procedure of discharging myself from the hospital now? Elizabeth made an attempt to get off the bed.
âHey, you, my girl! When did you become so disobedient? You still have gauze wrapped around your head.â Grandpa Tomas held her down from getting up. Although he blamed her, he couldnât suppress his smile and spoke, âBut Liz, I must say Iâm rather happy.â
Elizabeth was confused about his words.
She wondered what he was happy for since she just experienced a car accident.
Though she couldnât figure out why he was happy, she still found him a lovely person.
