Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After searching two or three places in a row without finding Mia, Noah began to feel a little anxious. He was afraid that Mia might not be back yet, but he was also afraid that she might be in danger on the way. He didn’t even answer her phone.

He went to look for the bathroom and kitchen again, but he didn’t find anyone. Just as Noah was about to call his secretary to find her, his grandfather called. “Hello, Grandpa. What’s up?”

“Rascal, what are you doing? Why aren’t you here to pick up your wife? Mia even said that you’re busy. No matter how busy you are, you can’t forget to pick up your wife.” Master scolded Noah on the other end of the phone.

If it was any other day, Noah definitely wouldn’t be so obedient. However, he was in the wrong today. In addition, he had finally found Mia. Hence, no matter what the Old Master said, he did not retort. It turned out that Mia had gone to the hospital. Noah finally felt relieved.

After hanging up the phone, Noah was prepared to rush to fetch Mia back so that he could explain to Mia. He hurriedly ran downstairs and remembered his clothes. It was really indecent to look dishevealed. Noah, who was obsessed with cleanliness, hurriedly went upstairs to wash up and tidy up.

By the time he arrived at the hospital, it was already past nine in the evening. Noah was afraid that the Old Master had fallen asleep, so he lightened his footsteps when he reached the door of the ward. When he pushed the door open and entered, he did not see his sleeping grandfather. Instead, he saw Mia, who was sleeping soundly.

When the Old Master saw Noah come in, he made a slight gesture and pointed at Mia to signal Noah to keep his voice down.

Then, the Old Master slowly got up and was about to get off the bed. Grandma supported him by the side. He walked to Noah’s side and tapped Noah’s head. He mouthed, “You!”

Noah knew that he was in the wrong, so he did not refute. He went forward to support his grandfather and walked out of the door. When they reached the corridor outside the ward, Old Master picked up his walking stick and knocked Noah a few times. “Tell me, didn’t you bring Mia out for a vacation? Why is Mia the only one who came back? To think that Mia is covering for you. You brat, you married such a good wife, yet you didn’t appreciate her and bullied Mia like this.”

After saying a few words, Old Master started to pant. The energy that he had from resting for a few days was gone after getting angry today. Noah hurriedly went up to calm his grandfather down and explained, “Grandpa, I really didn’t. I had an incident at the airport today.”

“Humph, let me tell you this. Although I am old, if you dare to bully Mia, I still won’t forgive you.”

“Yes, yes. Grandpa, don’t worry. It’s quite late. Let me help you back to rest.” As Noah spoke, he helped Grandpa back to the ward.

After Noah settled the old man down, Mia was still sleeping soundly. Noah saw that Mia’s sleeping face was as quiet as a little rabbit’s, so he didn’t wake Mia up. After saying goodbye to the old man and the rest, he gently picked Mia up and went home. He wanted to wake Mia up and explain to her, but for some reason, Mia didn’t wake up the entire way.

Perhaps Noah’s movements were light enough, or perhaps Mia was too tired and had fallen into a deep sleep. Either way, Mia only slowly opened her eyes when Noah gently placed her on the bed and closed the door after leaving.

Actually, Mia had been awake since Noah had been beaten by his grandfather outside the hospital room. She just didn’t know how to face his grandfather and Noah, so she’d been pretending to be asleep until now.

Although she had already reached a consensus with Noah on the divorce, Mia did not want to continue like this. She wanted to end this sort of life as soon as possible. However, after hearing his grandfather’s words in the ward today, Mia started to waver again. How could Mia say this to Noah’s grandfather, who loved her so much? If the divorce with Noah agitated Noah’s grandfather, Mia would feel extremely guilty for the rest of her life.

Mia was in a dilemma. She gently rubbed her stomach. Baby, what do you think Mommy should do?

When Noah went to work the next morning, for the first time ever, he wrote a note to Mia and stuck it on the door, telling her to wait for him to come home at night. He would explain it to Mia.

When Mia woke up and saw the note, she felt even more upset. Explain? What was there to explain? Would he tell her they were getting a divorce, or would he say he liked Jenny? For whatever reason, Mia didn’t want to hear it. So Mia didn’t stay home and wait for Noah.

After cleaning up, Mia went to the hospital to accompany Noah’s grandfather. He hadn’t been doing well lately, and Mia wasn’t sure how much longer she could stay with Noah. So Mia wanted to spend more time with Noah’s grandfather.

Mia had been taking her pills irregularly lately because of her trip with Noah. So today, while her grandfather was on his lunch break, Mia hurried to the bathroom to take her pills.

Every time she took this medicine, it was a form of torture. Headache, nausea, and discomfort always accompanied Mia.

After regaining her strength, Mia slowly stood up while supporting herself against the wall. She thought uncomfortably about how long she would be able to take this medicine for. As time passed, her stomach became more and more obvious. She could only delay it as long as she could.

Mia waited for more than half an hour, and afraid that Grandpa would wake up, she tidied her clothes and prepared to return to the ward. Just as she came out, she coincidentally bumped into Jack again.

“Jack, what a coincidence. Is this your daughter?” When Mia saw Jack bringing a little girl to the hospital, she subconsciously thought that it was Jack’s daughter.

Jack actually saw Mia as soon as she came out of the washroom. Every time he saw Mia, she always seemed so fragile. He didn’t know what kind of life Mia had been living all these years. Jack couldn’t help but feel a little angry..
