Chapter 153
Grandma’s medical tests began early the next morning.
Laidn’t want to keep her in Vandville any longer; there were too many threats here. In comparison, no one could hamsher in Nagel,
Liath stayed with me throughout the tests, and 1 began planning to take Grandma back to Napel. Tise doctor called us into his office shortly after.
The middle-aged doctor held the test results and towned deeply. Leould feel cold sweat forming on my back Please, anything but bad news.
Liam noticed my tension and silently moved closet to me to give me an unspoken sense of security.
Finally, the doctor pointed to the report in his hand and said, “The current results don’t look very optimistic.”
My mind buzzed as it something inside me shattered. I stood there in a daze, losing the ability to think. As I recalled everything Grandina had been through, tears followed uncontrollably.
Liam setred the main point. “Is there any treatment available at the current stage?”
The doctor softened his tone at seeing my emotional state. “Considering the patient’s age and decline in bodily functions combined with prolonged malnutrition, we suggest conservative treatment. With the right medication and daily care, there’s still a possibility of recovery.”
He paused, then added. “But the cost of this treatment…”
My muddled mind started to clear at his words. “I can afford it. Use the best medication available!”
The doctor sighed and handed me the prescription. “Talk to her regularly; it can help stimulate her consciousness.”
I wiped my tears and thanked the doctor. Then, I picked up the medication with Liam’s help.
“What’s your plan now? Liam casually asked when we returned to the ward, I looked at the frail Grandma lying on the bed and felt torn inside.
“She definitely can’t handle long-distance travel, but I can’t leave her in Yardyville.”
“If you take her back, the bumpy journey could be too hard on her,” Liam said and thought for a moment.
Then, he looked at me seriously. “Why don’t you let her stay in Yardville, and I’ll take care of her?”
I stared at him and tried to catch a hint of a joke in his expression, but there wasn’t any
I smiled and felt my heart warm. “How could I do that? You’ve helped me so much.”
“Stop with the nonsense. We’re not just-” Liam’s words were cut short by the ringing of his phone.
I glanced at the caller ID. It read “Mr. Cain”.
“Is be the Mr. Cain who’s selling us the land?” I asked.
He nodded. “Yes”
This time, he didn’t hide the call fr
from me and answered it.
The voice on the other end sounded polite and flattering. “Mr. Tyler, do you still want that piece of land?”
We exchanged glances, and both of us held back smiles. We knew exactly what this was; it was an opportunity to drive the price down
Liam feigned seriousness a
s and replied, “Didn’t you say you were selling it to the Graysons? I’ve started loolding at another piece of land.”
There was a brief silence on the other end, followed by a nervous chuckle. “Well, we businessmen value integrity. Though the Graysons are powerful, it doesn’t stop us from doing business. Since we’ve reached an agreement with you, we turned down the Graysons’ offer.” Chapter 14
