Chapter 830
After looking at Norissa's bulging tummy, Grandpa ordered, "Elaine, pull a chair over for her to sit."
"Okay, Grandpa."
She took the chair and said, "Miss Kaur, please have a seat."
Norissa sat down immediately. "Grandpa, I come empty-handed because I'm also in the hospital, so please forgive me."
"It's okay. You don't have to apologize for that." Grandpa chuckled.
With that, Norissa smiled too.
"Grandpa, I want to talk to you in private. Can you ask her to go out, please?"
As she spoke, she pointed at Elaine.
Then, Elaine looked at Grandpa.
However, Grandpa uttered faintly, "It's okay. She is one of us. You can just say whatever it is you want to say."
"Are you sure? What I'm about to say is related to the incident 20 years ago," Norissa whispered with a mysterious smile on her face.
There was a slight change on his expression after her remark that he quickly said, "Elaine, I need to talk to her in private."
Upon listening to his words, Elaine nodded and said, 'TH be waiting outside. If there's anything you need, just call me."
Grandpa stared straight at Norissa.
After that, Elaine turned around and went out.
With the intention to stay near the ward, she went to the nearby chair and waited patiently.
What did Norissa mean by what she said just now?
How did she know about an incident that occurred two decades ago...
Besides, judging from Grandpa's change of expression, she assumed that it was a big deal.
Letting out a sigh, she massaged her temple as she felt a headache coming. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Last night, she planned to skip town, but when she realized that someone was following her, she had to abandon the plan and got out of the train in order to get rid of the person who followed her.
She didn't know who was following her.
But she could make a wild guess...
He must be Vincent's man...
No one else would do such a boring thing except
for him.
What on earth did he want to do?
He didn't answer the phone.
Nor did he show up in front of her.
Instead, he sent someone to spy on her.
She couldn't figure out what was playing in his mind, and his actions enraged her.
It caused her a lot of trouble.
Oftentimes, she wanted to run over to him and ask why he wanted to do what he did and harm the Perkins Family...
But she didn't dare to.
She had just come out from his clutches. If she questioned him now, she would be walking straight into his traps again.
A headache suddenly attacked her.
It was quite painful that she pressed her head.
Suddenly, there was a shrill scream coming from the ward.
Shocked, Elaine jumped and quickly ran to the ward. As soon as she entered, she was utterly stunned by the scene.
Norissa was lying on the ground, and her lower body was bleeding...
The bright red blood was drenching her white hospital gown.
Meanwhile, Grandpa sat on the floor, panting heavily, and his face was pale...
Elaine stummered in a hoarse voice, "Doctor..."
Some nurses who heard the noise ran over to have a look, and they were also shocked. "What's going on? Hurry, there is a pregnant woman falling down!"
After a while, the nurse came over and carried Norissa, who was bleeding, onto the stretcher.
Despite everything that happened, Norissa was exceptionally calm without a hint of panic. She simply lay there quietly and didn't even scream.
After regaining her composure, Elaine hurried to help Grandpa up.
"He's back. He's back. He didn't die..." Grandpa muttered to himself.
"Grandpa!" Elaine shouted anxiously, "Who are you talking about?"
"H-H-He's not dead. He's not dead! He's coming at us for revenge!"
The more Grandpa snapped, the more agitated he became. "Norissa is his accomplice. She has to die!"
Elaine was taken aback by his remark. "It was you who pushed her..."
Without a word, Grandpa started to laugh hysterically and his terrifying laughter echoed the ward.
Frantically, Elaine turned in a hurry to get a doctor for Grandpa when she bumped into Howard who was coming in.
She hurriedly called, "Dr. Perkins, come here quickly..."
Seeing the anxious look on her face, Howard walked over suspiciously. "What's wrong..."
Before he could finish, he gasped in bewilderment when he saw Granpa's current state.
"Grandpa?"
Stroding into the ward and helping Grandpa to the bed, Howard tried to look for some answers from Grandpa but he didn't speak and he appeared to be in a bit of a frenzy.
She was dumbfounded of what had happened.
Howard was equally anxious.
Finally, Grandpa slowly calmed down after the doctor administered sedatives to him.
Not knowing what just happened, Howard turned to Elaine for some clarification.
After coming to her senses, she recounted what had happened just now. "Miss Kaur came and said that she wanted to speak to Grandpa in person, so he asked me to wait outside. About ten minutes later, I heard her screams, and when I entered, I saw her and Grandpa lying on the ground. She was covered in blood..."
"Later, you came, and you know the rest."
After saying that, Elaine found that his expression was extremely gloomy and dark.
"Did you know what they talked about?"
She shook her head.
Then, she blurted as if something crossed her mind, "At first, when she asked to speak to Grandpa alone, he let me stay, but when she mentioned that she wanted to talk about an incident that happened 20 years ago, suddenly, Grandpa frowned, and asked me to go out..."
Howard stared blankly for a moment.
Looking at him, she uttered, "Maybe you can try talking to Grandpa and ask what happened 20 years ago..."
"He won't tell me," Howard interjected.
"He would've told me sooner if he wanted to."
She was speechless.
What happened today hit her hard.
"Where's Norissa?" Howard asked.
"The doctor and nurses took her away. Her baby..." "May not make it," Elaine mumbled in her mind. She couldn't bear to say it out loud.
When she went in, Norissa bled so much that her gown was drenched in her blood.
Sitting on the chair, Howard pursed his lips and looked at Grandpa quietly.
Standing beside him, she noticed that there were few strands of white hairs on his head.
She felt her heart skip a beat.
He did not have white hair previously.
Feeling uneasy and agitated, she muttered, "Dr.
Perkins, I'm sorry. I got you into trouble..."
Howard didn't know what she was thinking, so he took her hand and comforted, "What are you talking about? It has nothing to do with you."
No, she had everything to do with it.
If it weren't for her, the Perkins Family wouldn't be like this...
Norissa had a miscarriage.
Although Elaine had prepared herself, she was shocked when the doctor came to inform them about the news.
Instantly, she turned to Howard, who was silent for a moment before saying, "Let her rest. I'll visit her
when she wakes up."
That was all he said.
After the doctor left, Howard said to Elaine, "Don't tell Grandpa about this. He may not be able to accept it."
Elaine nodded.
But as soon as they entered the ward, Grandpa asked, "What did the doctor say? Is it about the baby..."
Grandpa was so much better now and he had been worried sick when he thought of what had happened earlier.
She looked at Howard anxiously.
Howard was reluctant to tell him the truth, hence, Grandpa sat up from the bed immediately and demanded, "Don't lie to me. Did something happen to my great-grandson..."
