Chapter 197: Discovering Earth-Shattering News
Vinny Hawke wiped away tears and looked at Madam Hawke.
"Dad, Mom, Craig is young and naive, how could you follow him in making a fuss at your age?"
They’re making a fuss?
Elder Hawthorne disliked this kind of rhetoric.
"Vinny, we are old, and we only wish for all the Hawke family descendants to be happy and healthy. Craig said he has never given up on pursuing Elara Don. If we keep stopping him, do you want to see him grow old alone?"
Upon hearing this, Vinny said, "He’s just temporarily infatuated with Elara Don. Once time passes, he’ll pull himself away from it, how could he end up alone forever?"
Elder Hawthorne frowned and said nothing.
Madam Hawke sighed and held Vinny’s hand, "Vinny, Craig has been raised by you since he was young. You know his character better than anyone. Do you really think he’s just temporarily infatuated?"
Vinny choked, momentarily speechless.
Madam Hawke continued, "Vinny, I understand that as parents, we always want to give our children the best things, but sometimes things don’t turn out as we hope; they are predestined. Let it go, Vinny, just let things happen naturally."
His daughter’s past events have made her character somewhat extreme.
But she should also understand that some things are truly destined.
You can’t force it!
Vinny clearly understood the meaning behind Madam Hawke’s words and her eyes reddened again.
She flung off Madam Hawke’s hand, stubbornly saying, "Mom, you don’t have to say anymore, Elara Don is not worthy of Craig. I resolutely will not agree to her marrying into the Hawke family."
That woman not only isn’t worthy of Craig but also isn’t worthy of being a mother!
If she were a good mother, she shouldn’t be flirting outside.
She should take care of her own son and live properly!
...
Blue Sky Apartments.
Elara Don settled the two little ones and returned to the bedroom.
The room was silent; she leaned on the bed with her mind still in chaos.
Suppressing her restless emotions, she glanced at her phone, wondering why Leia Quinn hadn’t sent a message today.
Thinking about it, she dialed Leia Quinn’s number.
The phone rang several times until it was about to hang up before someone answered.
Elara Don frowned, asking, "Kiki, where are you? Why did it take so long to answer?"
The person on the other end paused for a moment and then said, "Is that Elly? This is Craig Landers."
Craig Landers?
Why would he be with Leia Quinn?
Elara Don was stunned, "Mr. Landers, where’s Kiki?"
"She’s at the hospital, something happened."
What?
Elara Don was startled and quickly asked, "What happened to Kiki? Is she okay?"
"Don’t worry, she just encountered a mentally disordered person. She’s fine now, just getting an IV."
Hearing Craig Landers’ words, Elara Don sighed in relief.
"Okay, Mr. Landers, do I need to come to the hospital to take care of her?"
"No need, I’m here at the hospital."
"Thank you, Mr. Landers."
"No problem, I’m hanging up."
Craig Landers hung up the phone, looked through the hospital window inside, his beautiful peach blossom eyes showing relief.
Luckily he arrived in time, otherwise who knows what might have happened today.
In doing so, does he count as her lifesaver?
Craig Landers’ lips curved into a smile, ready to push the door open.
The phone beeped as a message came through.
Craig Landers glanced casually, his gaze fixed on the phone screen.
On the phone screen was a selfie.
The woman in the photo was Leia Quinn.
She was holding a two-to-three-year-old child smiling sweetly in her arms.
And this child...
Craig Landers narrowed his eyes, something flashed in his long peach blossom eyes.
Isn’t this child Dominic Hawke?
No!
Why would Leia Quinn take a picture with a two-to-three-year-old Dominic Hawke?
So this boy can’t be Dominic Hawke?
But if it’s not Dominic Hawke, then who could it be?
Why does he look exactly like Dominic Hawke?
An answer was on the edge of discovery; Craig Landers’ pupils contracted, as if discovering an incredible secret.
Leia Quinn and Elara Don are best friends.
Elara Don’s son is Leia Quinn’s godson.
So this child in the photo could only be Elara Don’s son.
Could it be!
This little boy who looks exactly like Dominic Hawke is the legendary Bea?
What, what is going on?
Why does Elara Don’s child look exactly like Dominic Hawke?
This is obviously twins!
Twins!
But why is one with an old friend while the other is with Elara Don?
Craig Landers was left perplexed.
At this moment, Leia Quinn on the hospital bed fluttered her eyelashes and slowly awakened.
Craig Landers’ dazed thoughts were pulled back, he quickly pushed open the door and walked in.
"Cindy, you’re awake?"
Leia Quinn moved her body, wanting to sit up.
Craig Landers quickly helped her up, placing a cushion behind her.
"Thank you."
Leia Quinn thanked, startled by the hoarseness of her voice, raised her hand to touch her neck.
"Drink some water."
Craig Landers poured her a glass of water, "The person strangled your neck, your vocal cords are slightly damaged, but it’s not serious, rest for a day and you’ll be fine."
Leia Quinn took the cup, giving him a grateful smile.
Craig Landers sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her forehead, "Rather, it’s your head, there’s a slight concussion, it needs to be observed for two days."
Leia Quinn sipped the water, nodding slightly.
Thinking of Hay Zephr, she looked at Craig Landers and softly asked, "Where is Hay? How is he?"
Her damaged vocal cords made her words somewhat unclear.
Craig Landers leaned in a bit closer, "What did you say? Say it again, I didn’t hear clearly."
The man’s face suddenly close, carrying a faintly pleasant manly scent, making breathing inevitable.
Leia Quinn looking at his attractive peach blossom eyes, awkwardly turned her head.
Her heart rate increased, she quickly suppressed the strange feelings and looked for her phone.
"What are you looking for?"
Craig Landers noticed Leia Quinn’s blush, a trace of laughter flashed in his eyes.
"Where’s my phone?"
Leia Quinn pressed herself to speak forcefully.
Phone!
The phone was in his hand.
Craig Landers looked at his hand, his eyes gleaming slightly, and handed the phone over to her.
"Elly called earlier, I answered for you seeing you were still asleep."
And discovered a shocking piece of news.
He must inquire thoroughly about this later!
Leia Quinn said nothing but quickly typed a line.
Craig Landers only heard his own phone ringing; he glanced at Leia Quinn seeing her gesturing for him to check the phone.
Clearly, the message was from Leia Quinn.
In the same ward, yet sending messages?
Craig Landers found it amusing.
His attractive peach blossom eyes twinkled as he sat beside Leia Quinn, pulling her into his arms, holding her phone.
"My phone is almost out of battery, I thought it would be better like this."
Leia Quinn: "..."
Why is he holding her to look at the phone together?
Is he trying to take advantage of her in a roundabout way?
