Benedict had had a craniotomy. On top of that, his body would recover slower due to his old age. That was why it

was only expected that she had him stay in bed and rest. “You look like you have healed considerably, Grandpa. I

will take you out tomorrow and have a stroll in the yard.”

Nicole then checked Benedict’s wound. As the people in the family had taken good care of him the past few days,

his wound was almost completely healed. It should be alright for him to walk around for a bit with her supporting

him.

His eyes instantly lit up upon hearing that he could go out for some fresh air. With a nod, he huffed,

“See! I tell those punks that I am fine, but they don’t listen!”

“Don’t get too worked up, Grandpa.” Nicole chuckled. “You have to take care of your body. You can even go out for

a jog once you regain your health.”

Benedict hummed in reply, and he added again after giving it some thought, “Right, I want to go out. It feels like it

has been so long since I went shopping. What do you think, Nicole? Can I go?”

She saw the look of anticipation in his eyes as he spoke. He looked exactly the same as Hayden when the boy

wanted candy back when he was a child.

Still, Nicole managed to not succumb as she coldly rejected, “You can’t.”

Seeing the disappointment on Benedict’s face made her smile a little.

She soon started to coax him, “Grandpa, now is not the time for you to go out. You are just recovering from a

serious illness. The commotion outside isn’t good for your recuperation. How about I bring you and Hayden out

when you are all better?”

As much as he knew that she was just buttering up to him, Benedict was also aware of his condition. Left with no

choice, he could only nod and reply,

“Deal. No going back on your word, though.”

Hearing that, she pursed her lips and smiled.

Just as they were having fun chit-chatting, Anna suddenly walked in and called out to Nicole, “Dinner is ready,

Nicole.”

Nicole then stood up and peeked at Benedict.

There was a lot of food that the man still couldn’t eat post-surgery. He couldn’t help feeling grumpy that he could

only stay in the room. Waving his hand dismissively, he simply closed his eyes and shooed her off.

“Off you go. I can’t eat anything. Don’t tell me what you are eating just for me to imagine it.”

Seeing him grumble, she started reassuring him, “You are healing well. It won’t be long before you can eat

everything again.”

He only closed his eyes without a word. Anna then took Nicole’s hand and brought her out.

It was only after they were out the door that Anna informed her in a low voice, “There is a lot that he can’t eat now,

which is why he is upset. He has become a big baby after the operation. We will have to be a little more tolerant

toward him.”

Nicole nodded understandingly as a hint of amusement flashed in her dark eyes.

“I took a look earlier. Grandpa is recovering pretty well. He will be okay once his wound heals in about two days.”

“Richard said so as well.” Anna smiled.

As Benedict gradually recovered, the cold atmosphere in the Gardner Residence had also gotten warmer as

everyone felt more relieved.

The women continued to talk on their way to the dining hall, and when they arrived, they were greeted by the sight

of Hayden sitting on Colton’s lap. Colton, on the other hand, was holding the boy by his waist with one hand, and

grabbing some food with his fork with another.

When Nicole saw this, she came in front of Hayden and chuckled.

“Not even the owner of the house has started eating, but here you are chowing down food. What a brazen child.”

Hayden swiftly lifted his chin when he saw Nicole. Blinking his clear eyes, he had an aggrieved look on his face.

“Can’t I? But my tum-tum is hungry,” he mumbled.

His little boy’s voice immediately brought out the sympathy in Anna as she blurted out, “Of course you can! This is a

family dinner. Anyone who is hungry can start eating anytime. It is not good for children at the growing stage to

starve.”
