Chapter 1277
Always Been Yours
Stefania and Tobias didnât have an opinion about those words and merely laughed in agreement.
âSure looks like Gregory when he was younger.â
âItâs just that the childâs eyes and eyebrows are similar to Tessaâs. So, Iâm sure the child would be a good-looking one.â
When Remus heard such compliments, he knew that Stefania and Tobias had no clue about the game he played with Nicholas. Remus figured that it was best to spill the beans about Gregoryâs background when he had the time.
At that thought, his focus fell on Tessa, who was still in the ICU.
Remus turned to Tobias and spoke solemnly, âYou have to inform the hospital to provide Tessa with the best treatment possible.â
âI have already done so. Donât worry.â Tobias nodded before he continued as he thought of something.
âYour granddaughter-in-law is amazing, though.â
Remus raised his eyebrow slightly to indicate that he did not object.
After all, Tessa had gone through Hell and survived the remarkable journey. Tobias had a different viewpoint, though.
âIt was a scary scene. If it hadnât been for your granddaughter-in- law pushing Gregory out of the way in time and fighting to protect the unborn child, we might have lost both children.â
Tobias and Stefania were both grateful and frightened when they thought about the car accident.
Even Nicholas had an imposing expression.
Although Remus was unaware of the situation, he knew it must have been a life-or death situation based on the scowls on their faces alone.
He turned to look at the child in the incubator and expressed, âLuckily, mother and children are safe.â
âI told Tobias that since both children survived the ordeal, theyâd definitely be blessed in the future.â
Stefania nodded in agreement.
Remus said nothing and merely grinned.
After he visited the child, he started to feel tired, so they returned to his ward.
Nicholas stayed back to look after Remus.
Once Remus was seated on the bed, he shooed Nicholas away. âOkay, go ahead and watch Tessa. Iâm sure youâre worried sick about her after accompanying me for so long.â
Nicholas didnât refuse Remusâ words. Iâm worried about Tessa after being away for so long. Iâm not sure whether she has woken up yet.
âThen, Iâll head over. Let me know if you need anything.â
âGo on. You two as well. Iâm sleepy, so I want to take a nap.â The latter part of his sentence was directed to Stefania and Tobias.
It was just that Stefania felt uneasy about leaving him like this.
Therefore, she spoke up, âDad, if we leave, you wonât have anyone to take care of you. So, why donât I stay back?â
âWho said thereâs nobody? Isnât Ian a human?â Remus insisted as he tried to shoo the three of them out.
Weâve tried our best. Tobias and Stefania followed Nicholas out.
Only Ian and Remus were left in the room.
After Nicholas and the rest left, Remus sat quietly with thoughts that no one was aware of.
Ian was worried as he inquired, âOld Master Sawyer, are you okay?â
âIâm alright. Please pass me the phone.â When Remus regained his composure, he looked like he had come to a decision on something.
Ian sensed that Remus was up to something, so he quickly handed him the device.
As soon as the phone was in Remusâ palm, he immediately gave Horace a ring.
The call was soon connected before Horaceâs concern was heard.
âRemus, are you alright?â
âIâm alright, but we have a problem,â Remus intoned deeply.
Horace took a deep breath and asked with difficulty, âAre you sure you want to do this? Weâve been friends for so longââ
âIf you really cherish our friendship, please donât say such words, and also donât ask me to let Wanda off the hook,â Remus interrupted. âIt is a fact that Wanda did something terrible. If my granddaughter-in-
law and great-grandchild werenât blessed, they would have died in the car accident. So, Wanda deserves her punishment!â
