Chapter 440: 440: You have exposed your identity
Mrs. Jenkins stared straight at Daniel Marshall without blinking.
Daniel wasn’t berating her, nor was he warning or threatening her. He was bringing food for her. Mrs. Jenkins was taken aback, and for a moment, didn’t know what to say.
Olivia Jenkins took the thermos Daniel had brought, opened it carefully and spoke, “The results of the gastric examination are out – grandma’s condition is not too bad. She has stomach stones, but they’re soft, not too severe. The head of the Gastroenterology department said to drink 100 ml of cola every day and have another examination in a week. Her diet needs to be carefully monitored.”
Olivia was about to feed her grandma when Daniel took the bowl from her, “Honey, there is sweetened jujube and snow fungus soup in the other thermos, it’s warm and good for the moment. Let me feed the congee to grandma.”
Before Olivia could react, Mrs. Jenkins spoke first, “The anesthesia has worn off, I feel better. I’m not drowsy anymore, I can eat the congee myself, no need to trouble you two.”
Leaf Fiona tactfully interjected, “I’ll feed Mrs. Jenkins, I’m used to it. I think she is also used to me taking care of her.”
Mrs. Jenkins hastily agreed, “Yes, let Leaf Fiona feed me. Olivia, after you finish your soup, go back with Daniel. The nights are cold and windy here, and you could catch a cold. You’ve been busy all day, you should rest.”
Olivia’s pretty face lit up in a sweet smile, “Understood. I’ll come over early tomorrow, bring more congee, and accompany you for the other examinations.”
“Good!” Mrs. Jenkins also broke into a smile; her demeanor was kinder and felt more affectionate.
Upon exiting grandma’s hospital room, Daniel tightly enveloped Olivia in his arms.
Olivia nestled into Daniel’s embrace, feeling his warmth, her clear eyes filled with a soft smile.
“Husband, I’m so happy today! My usually cold and verbally abusive grandma sincerely apologized to me. Now, she treats me nicely, something I never dared to hope for in the past.”
Daniel lowered his head and kissed Olivia’s cheek, “My wife is very good, and grandma isn’t blind. She can see and feel it. I noticed it too, her gaze towards me tonight didn’t contain any malice. Everything is moving in a good direction. Honey, we can be very happy!”
Olivia nodded.
Positioning herself even closer to Daniel, Olivia tightly hugged his waist. The intimate affection between them seemed to glue them together, inseparable.
Fearing being seen, James Marshall was very cautious as he went to the room booked by Grace Martinez.
On seeing James Marshall, Grace Martinez immediately ran over and embraced him.
James Marshall coldly looked at Grace Martinez, pulling her arms away from him.
James Marshall’s voice was somewhat gloomy, laden with palpable anger, “In this morning’s meeting, you shouldn’t have clashed with Daniel. You’ve already exposed yourself, plus implicated me. Now, father and son are on guard against me. I’m being restrained everywhere.”
Grace Martinez blinked with disbelief.
With James Marshall’s words, a chill seemed to slowly creep into Grace Martinez’s heart, which was gradually turning cold.
“James Marshall, are you trying to ditch me? You’re finding me bothersome now, aren’t you? You’re going to the Kingdom of Dale, leaving me alone in Serene City, what am I supposed to do? You didn’t consider my situation, just took your wife to the Kingdom of Dale. You can be an untroubled good husband in the eyes of others. You’re dreaming too sweetly!”
