Chapter 716 - Separation is imminent
Jacob hesitated for a moment or agreed, and before he left, he did not forget to say, "Madam, if there is anything wrong, you can find me first, and I will be there in the shortest possible time."
"Hmm."
She responded, but she couldn't hold Joel any longer, so she hurriedly said goodbye and went back to the house.
Joel was placed gently on the bed by her, and behind her, Kent followed, "Is everything okay?"
"It's okay." She said, making a silent gesture and carefully tucked Joel in before pushing Kent out of the room with her.
Kent looked at Elena's appearance and couldn't help but frown, "Where's Logan?"
"At the hospital."
"Hospital?"
"Hmm."
Elena nodded and raised her eyes to look at him, a touch of pain tinged the bottom of her eyes, "kent...... grandfather he ...... may not be able to hold out, liver cancer, advanced stage... ..."
She stumbled over her words, her body leaning somewhat feebly against the cold wall.
"Logan is now in the hospital keeping watch, but the doctor also said it's just for a few days."
Kent suddenly could not say half the words, full of confusion ......
"How is this possible? Wasn't George Brown's body quite strong some time ago? How can you say you are sick ......"
He said, can't help but shake his head, some want to deny the status quo, "No, there must be a mistake somewhere, maybe also because the examination report is wrong! You guys check it again properly and confirm!"
"Really."
She looked at him, "George Brown passed out this afternoon and was just taken to the hospital for emergency care, only, the time after ......"
Elena took a deep breath and was somewhat unable to speak.
Kent moved his lips and wordlessly stepped forward to bring her into his arms and gently patted her back, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to doubt you, I just ...... don't know how to digest this fact yet ."
"I know." She replied dully.
Kent soothed her for a while before leading her downstairs, Lexi also made tea for the two of them, Kent called out to her, "You're just fine here, no need to deliberately avoid it."
She is now his, and naturally she does not speak of two families.
Lexi hesitated for a moment, but in the end, wordlessly retreated and sat down on the side.
Elena took a sip of tea and then calmed her mind a little bit.
"Kent, this matter George Brown has not yet gone out in public, not many people know about it yet, so I hope you can also keep it to yourself for the time being."
Even if the Brown Group is managed by Cornel, but George Brown's identity is also there, as the founder of the Brown Group, if it is so rashly spread out so that everyone knows the company's shareholders or the stock market will follow the turmoil.
This is something that he knows better than anyone else as well.
Kent nodded, "I understand."
"Thanks."
"Silly girl, what are you thanking?" Kent patted her head with some discontent fear, "Have you eaten something? I'll make you some."
"No."
She shook her head, originally thought of asking him to make chicken soup as well, but thought that Logan would not eat at this time, and George Brown could not eat, so did not want to bother him.
Elena slightly steadied her mind, "I'm not hungry yet, and there's nothing in particular I want to eat, just wanted to talk to you guys about the Browns' situation, and also lest you see it all on the news afterwards."
Instead of letting it come to light, she should have spoken up herself first. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
"Then go rest for a while." Kent's voice was gentle, as if he was treating her with this kind of tenderness on purpose.
Elena nodded and couldn't help but wobble a little as she stood up.
Kent heart stuttered a little, can not control and on the pro-support a hand.
"You're in a bit of a bad way, are you really okay?"
"It's okay, it's just ...... a little too much to take in, just adjust it."
What's more, even if she can't hold on at this point, she has to hold on, Logan is more uncomfortable than she is more unwilling to accept are still holding on, then how can she easily fall down?
Kent still does not feel at ease, but she always insists, so he really can't say anything else, and finally give up.
Elena went back to her bedroom and fell into bed but couldn't sleep, looking at the empty ceiling, her side was also empty, as was her mood at the moment.
"Squeak."
The door to the room was gently pushed open a crack, Elena looked along and saw a familiar figure.
Joel is standing outside the door holding his little pillow innocently, not knowing whether it's better to enter or retreat.
Elena pulled the corner of her mouth and suddenly smiled, "Why are you just standing there? Come in."
When given permission, Joel immediately ran in and jumped on the bed and nestled into her arms.
"Didn't you fall asleep? How come you're up?"
"Because Mommy is not at ......"
The little one said extraordinarily aggrieved, his voice was laced with a little crying tone.
Elena couldn't help but shake her head and laugh, rubbing his little head, "What are you afraid of, Mommy's right here."
"Hmm."
Joel responded, his small hands squeezing her shirt again.
After a while there was no movement, Elena almost thought he was going to fall asleep, but did not want to, just a little movement of the little guy's voice came out, "Mommy ...... you say, Grandpa George really ... ..."
"I don't know."
She didn't dare to say it, and she couldn't coax him.
This is also already an established fact, to say or not to say, there is no longer any meaning.
Joel gritted his teeth and said nothing more. Elena sighed lightly and patted him on the back and whispered, "Sooner or later we will have to go through something like this, just like Joel will leave me and Daddy sooner or later when he grows up."
And they will eventually leave him ......
Joel listened to a burst of heartache and could not help but flooded with sourness, "But ...... I do not want to separate from Grandpa George, nor do I want Mommy and Dedi to leave!"
"It's not up to you to say."
God is destined for her to go if she is destined to go only ......
Joel was angry and annoyed, but Elena was absolutely right, and he couldn't find a single thing wrong with her.
"Mommy......"
"Well, go to sleep and when you wake up I'll take you to see Grandpa George, okay?"
Heard here, the little one even if there are full of words to say also all hard put back, nodded his head lying in her arms to sleep peacefully.
Elena sent a message to Logan before she went to bed, and only then did she drift off to sleep, opening her eyes subconsciously as soon as the day dawned.
Logan returned the message last night, only she was so tired that she didn't see anything and didn't reply.
The idea is that Elena washed up and went downstairs to prepare breakfast, thinking she could bring some to him as well.
