Chapter 430

Earle was promptly taken to the hospital in the ambulance that arrived.

The youngsters tagged along as well.

The top medical professionals were already waiting for them when they arrived at the hospital. Upon

Earle’s arrival, he was taken to the special VIP ward for evaluation.

The children were waiting outside the ward. Silas’ palms were sweating from anxiety.

Aileen and Adrian locked eyes and took Silas’ hand at the same time.

“Don’t worry, Silas,” Aileen reassured him. “There is no need to worry about Mr. Moran. He will be

okay.”

Silas, his face dull, agreed, saying, “My great-grandpa is extremely privileged, so he will definitely be

okay.”

The sight of the three kids holding hands outside of the ward made the nurse feel uneasy. She had to

go up to them and console them, saying, “You kids must be incredibly close. Have no fear. The health

of your great-grandfather is not a concern.”

Silas quickly corrected the nurse’s assumption that they were siblings by saying, “We are not related in

any way, sorry.”

“What?” Aileen answered in a flash. “You are both my older brothers, we are related!”

After the death of his parents, Silas had not experienced the genuine comfort of family until then.

“Yes…” Silas said with a hushed voice as he bowed his head.

“Miss Pretty, what’s Mr. Moran’s condition?” Aileen inquired of the nurse hesitantly.

When Aileen addressed her as Miss Pretty, the nurse couldn’t contain her excitement. She got down on

her knees and pinched her round cheek.

“Not to fret. He received first aid treatment in time, so everything will be well.”

All three children let out a collective sigh of relief.

“Thank you, Adrian. When my great-grandpa fell, I had no idea what to do. What might have happened

if not for you would be beyond my wildest imaginations.”

Silas expressed his gratitude.

The nurse stared at Adrian in disbelief. “He administered first aid?”

“It was nothing,” Adrian commented quickly, waving his hand. “I just came across the medication Mr.

Moran was carrying.”

The nurse patted him on the back and exclaimed, “You’re amazing, boy!”

Adrian was flattered to be complimented in this manner.

At that moment, the doctor emerged from the ward.

“Doctor, I was wondering how my great-grandpa is doing,” Silas inquired in a hurry.

“He’s alright,” the doctor said, taking off his mask. “Seeing him at this time is fine, but you must be

quiet. The time you can spend seeing him is limited. Do you get it?”

“Yes, I get it.”

The three youngsters all gave affirmative nods.

Then they all walked inside Earle’s room and got close to him in bed.

“Hey… Kids, how comes you’re here?”

Earle appeared to be doing much better. He could hardly speak before.

Holding Earle’s hand, Aileen inquired wearily, “Mr. Moran, do you feel any better? My blood was

running cold moments ago.”

When speaking to Aileen, Earle couldn’t help but tone it down.

“I’m all right.”

“Mr. Moran, you were overly confident about your health,” Adrian, who was standing next to them, said.

“You were in poor health and should not have played with us. You ought to follow the example of the

other old men and go for walks after meals.”

The way he put it offended Earle.

“What’s your deal, boy? There was a day in my youth when…”

Earle started to boast about his accomplishments again, but Silas cut him off, saying, “Great-grandpa, I

have heard a lot about what you had experienced when you were young. I agree with Adrian though;

you’re too over your prime to be hanging around with kids.”

As Earle was about to explode, Aileen stepped in and defended him.

“That’s not the case. Mr. Moran would accompany us to the amusement park if he so desired. He

might… He could ride with us on the merry-go-round!”

Earle found Aileen’s remarks humorous. He had a soft spot in his heart for these kids. But for the

Moran Group, he couldn’t let the news of his heart disease leak out.

He said sternly to the little siblings, “Children, swear me you will not tell anybody what happened,

okay?”

With a respectful nod, Aileen said, “Mr. Moran, don’t worry. Not a soul will know. Let’s keep this

between us!”

Adrian’s grave response was, “I won’t tell anyone, either.”

At this point, night had fallen completely. It was imperative that the twins go on their way.

“Mr. Moran, I’m afraid we need to head back home. Mommy must be quite concerned about us,” Aileen

remarked uneasily.

Earle was hesitant to let them go at first. “Child, who is your mother?” he couldn’t help but wonder.

“My mother is…”
