Chapter 396: Wanting to Bring Medicine to See Someone
Is what is likely to happen next, is this dream a foreboding?
Eliza Hayes, usually fearless, was truly scared out of her wits this time since that guy was taken away.
Nanny Warren gently patted her back, heavy-hearted, unsure of what to say.
She also looked at the medicine report Adrian Lancaster sent yesterday, feeling a chill down her spine. If things continue like this, all truths might soon surface.
Faye Turner is also in traditional medicine, the man waking up is only a matter of time.
"Nanny Warren!"
Eliza Hayes suddenly grabbed her shoulder, looking up from her arms, asked in shock and panic, "Say something, what should we do? What should we do now?"
The night was deep; she lowered her voice, yet couldn’t hide the panic.
"It’s just a dream. If he woke up, what was thrown to you today wouldn’t be just a report." Nanny Warren, in contrast, was relatively calm, "At least for now, they are still far from the truth."
"Right... right..." The woman also comforted herself accordingly, but then she couldn’t figure it out, "No, we have to go check on the situation! I’m not at ease, I have to go see him!"
"The precautions are strict; you can’t get in, you know that." Nanny Warren knew she asked around, and Nanny Warren had also been there.
Eliza Hayes’ mind suddenly turned quickly, "Get Grandpa involved! Let’s get Grandpa; we can take the old master with us!"
"Madam, your clothes are wet; I’ll get you some clothes." Nanny Warren gently pulled her hand off her shoulder, turned around and murmured, "You might catch a cold like this."
Eliza Hayes stood in place, her eyes unfocused, her whole being like her thoughts were sucked away, losing her spirit...
"Getting the old master will definitely work." She even hoped for daybreak, surely planning to go see that man.
The next morning.
Eliza Hayes put on a light makeup to cover up her exhaustion from the sleepless night.
She deliberately changed into a cheongsam, hiding a red pill on her, sat with a cold face in front of the mirror for a long time.
Looking at the person in the mirror, she felt she had brewed her emotions of sorrow and longing to the best, then got up.
"Madam..."
Nanny Warren was about to speak when Eliza Hayes asked her, "Is the old master up yet?"
The middle-aged woman beside her nodded, "He’s up."
Upon hearing this, she walked out.
After going downstairs to the garden in front of the main villa, she saw the spirited old master practicing Tai Chi.
Every move precise and in place.
The elder’s face still had a somewhat serious expression, recently there’s been little smile on Grandpa’s face, the happenings in the family had affected his mood.
Eliza Hayes did not disturb him, just stood silently watching, accompanying, waiting.
Half an hour later.
The old master finally stopped the movements, the two servants waiting beside him hurried forward, one handing over warm water, another handing over a towel.
The elder took the towel to wipe the sweat off his forehead, returned the towel, and took the cup, drank two sips of warm water.
With a cane in hand, he walked over to stand before Eliza Hayes, "Speak, what’s the matter?"
"Dad." The middle-aged woman spoke softly, full of sorrow, "I miss Caleb..." As she spoke, a sourness rose in her nose, almost making her cry.
"Do you know where he is?" The old master asked.
"I know." The woman, seeing no refusal from him, raised her eyes to tell him, "Arranged by Adrian Lancaster to stay at another villa."
The old master scrutinized her, his mind clear, "Since you know, but haven’t gone, is it because... they don’t let you see him?"
The woman felt a slight shock in her heart, she steadied her emotions, answered truthfully, "Taking him away... isn’t that just to prevent me?" Her face still tinged with sadness.
"Is it prevention?" The elder emphasized the word, "Didn’t he say you couldn’t care for him? Having someone else take care of him is quite good, you’ve worked hard for so many years, it’s time to relax."
She quickly explained, "Dad, I’m not going to take him away, after all our years together as a couple, for over twenty years I’ve never left him, these two nights... Dad, honestly, I’ve been sleepless. I miss him; I just want to go see him."
