Chapter 419

“Grandma, haven’t you had enough with Silas? You can’t even deal with one grandchild; are you sure

you want more?” Maurice joked.

Nancy pretended to be angry and scolded Maurice softly, “You brat, who asked for your opinion? It’s

Eliana’s bod. It’s up to her to decide.”

Seeing that the conversation had become a little more cheerful and relaxed, Eliana finally decided not

to say anything.

The three of them had a nice lunch. After lunch, Nancy stood up to leave.

“Mrs. Moran, are you leaving already?” Eliana asked Nancy.

“Yeah. I don’t want to overstay my welcome.” Nancy then glanced at Maurice and said with a faint

smile, “Someone needs to work harder here. I’m leaving now.”

Eliana and Maurice both saw her off.

After Nancy left, Eliana looked curiously at Maurice and finally asked the question that had been in her

mind for a while. “Maurice, why did you bring your grandmother here today?”

Maurice replied indifferently, “I brought her here as backup, just like you asked her to come to my aid

the other day when my grandfather hit me.”

At this moment, Eliana suddenly remembered how weak Earle looked when he collapsed on the sofa

earlier. She couldn’t help worrying.

“Maurice, do you think there’s anything to worry about your grandfather’s health? I don’t want him to

get sick because of me.”

Maurice gently reassured Eliana, “You don’t have to worry about him. He’s not used to sitting around;

that’s all. He is in perfect health.”

When Eliana was about to say something else, her phone rang. It was Nana.

“Hello, Nana. What’s up?”

“Eliana, there was an incident at my work. I’m afraid I can’t help you pick up the kids today.”

Nana sounded nervous and hesitant on the phone.

Sure enough, Eliana noticed it and she quickly became nervous. “Nana, what happened at your work?”

“Nothing serious,” Nana replied in a guilty tone.

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll come to your workplace right away!”

Eliana’s tone was firm and Nana felt that her friend wasn’t joking. Nana sighed and had to tell the truth.

“It’s not a big deal. But… I’m in the Central Hospital now. We’ll talk about the details when you see

me…”

Before Nana could finish her words, Eliana had dropped the phone and stood up. Her gaze was blank.

Why was her best friend in the hospital?

Eliana turned to Maurice and ordered, “Maurice, take me to the Central Hospital now.”

Maurice was confused and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Nana is in there. I have to go and see her now.”

As she spoke, Eliana rushed out and Maurice followed her immediately.

As soon as the two of them walked out of the house, they ran into Corbin.

Corbin was about to say hello but Eliana walked pass him as if she hadn’t even seen him.

“Corbin, you’re just in time. Drive the car,” Maurice said, throwing the car keys to Corbin as he rushed

to the garage.

Corbin was confused and looked at Eliana and Maurice, who seemed in a hurry.

What the hell was going on?

Why were they in such a hurry?

Finally, he decided to run after them.

When they got on the car, Maurice suddenly remembered something and said to Corbin, “Corbin, if my

memory is good, the dean of the Central Hospital is my grandfather’s friend, right?”

Hearing his question, Corbin was even more confused. However, he nodded quickly, “Yes. But boss,

who is sick?”

Maurice replied seriously, “Nana. She’s in the hospital now. However, we don’t yet know exactly what

happened.”

“What? Nana is in the hospital?”

Corbin’s expression changed drastically and he suddenly slammed on the brakes.
