"Don't worry. As long as you do the surgery, I will bring her to meet you. I can assure you this." Charles said calmly. "She is preoccupied with so many things that I am afraid she would have no time to meet you at the moment."
"Well, I just want to know... I just want to know if she is fine." Arthur bit his tongue as he was about to say something. He was anxious to know what happened to Autumn in these years.
"No, to be frank she is not fine, " replied Charles. Charles shook his head slightly. Autumn had gotten involved in a series of troublesome affairs. Her grandmother's illness, Isla's accident as well as Yvonne's drama drained all of her energy.
"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you." Charles said. "Autumn's grandma is also in this hospital and she is in critical condition. If you want to see her, I suggest that you do it soon. She is running out of time and you may not have many chances to meet her."
After Charles left, Arthur checked at the information desk which room Autumn's grandma was confined then hurried to it. Autumn happened to be there feeding her grandmother some porridge. "Do you like it? Does it taste good?" Autumn asked softly with a smile.
Her weak grandmother nodded slightly, smiling back at her, "Autumn, you don't have to feed me. I can eat on my own."
"Don't move, grandma. I'm happy to do it." Autumn scooped a spoonful of porridge, blew on it a little to cool it then gently put it in her grandma's mouth. "Grandma, I still remember, you used to feed me like this and you always took good care of me. Now it is my turn to take care of you. "
"What a good girl." Grandma reached out her hands, patting Autumn's back gently and said, "I am so lucky to be your grandmother and to have you in my life. I could die without any regret."
"Grandma, please don't talk like that. You are my only family. Please don't leave me alone in this world." Autumn's eyes glistened with tears. "Grandma, my heart breaks when you say that. Never talk like that again. Promise me, grandma. As long as I am here, I won't let anything happen to you. You will get better and help me take care of my children. Yo
y life. Then I won't be a failure when I die."
"You still look the same as before. You are still handsome and refreshing." she said, smiling bitterly.
"Emily, why didn't you give me a call when you experienced so many difficulties and hardship. Bowen is a fool, but you should have known what to do. He is my son and Autumn is my granddaughter. Do you think I would turn a deaf ear to you?" Arthur lamented. He was just hurt when Bowen disregarded his advice and insisted on marrying Wendy. For a long time, Arthur tried to find them, but Bowen had run away to a place where his family couldn't find him.
Arthur then went abroad and it was forgotten.
Emily expressed much regret. "I did try to contact you several years ago, but I couldn't reach you."
Arthur was silent, then he remembered that he changed his phone number when he moved abroad. He was overcome with regret as he learned that they had gone through so much suffering. He was eager to make it up to them.
"But I thank the heavens that you are back now. Autumn will not be left alone and helpless." Emily felt relieved. "Arthur, she is your granddaughter. Though she is also the daughter of that vicious woman, Wendy, Autumn is innocent."
Emily grabbed Arthur's hands. "Autumn is softhearted just like her father. I am really worried that no one will take care of her and protect her after my death. But now that you are here. I am really happy."
