"Well, it cost him a lot," Meredith nodded.

Amelia pretended to say casually. "Parker has a good temper. He won't mind such a minor issue. You should contact him more. Don't get out of touch with him."

Meredith was nodding, but somehow she felt something was wrong.

"Mom, you seem to like Parker very much.”

"Well... kind of. After all, when you disappeared, he was always there for me. He's a son to me.” Hearing this, Meredith did not know what to say. She just echoed her and praised Parker.

Easton also went into the ward. Because Amelia was much better and was not so weak, she allowed Easton to see her.

Easton walked in and looked at Amelia sitting on the bed. "Grandma, I'm Easton.”

He had a vague impression of his grandmother. He only remembered that when he was a young kid, she often came to see him.

Later, he heard that she had a strange disease. The disease was not contagious, but she didn’t want him to come to the hospital, so Easton hadn't seen her for a long time

"Easton, you're a big boy now.”

Amelia couldn't help crying when she saw Easton.

She had always missed her grandson, but she didn't dare to get close to him because of her sickness.

She didn't want to leave the child with a sickly impression.

Easton just worried about her. He frowned when he walked to the hospital bed and saw Amelia's thin hands covered with pinholes.

"Grandma, it must be painful for you to have injections every day."

"It's okay. It doesn’t hurt. I'm an adult, and I'm not afraid of pain.”

Hearing Easton's words, Amelia felt warm. When Meredith saw this warm picture, she couldn't bear to disturb them, so she stood aside and let them chat.

Easton asked a few questions, and Amelia changed the subject and asked about his life.

She hadn't been out for a long time and wanted to know what was going on outside.

Easton seemed to understand her thoughts. He thought about the interesting things in his life and tell them to grandma.

The ward had been quiet and lonely, but Easton's appearance brought joy.

Meredith stood by without saying a word. She enjoyed such atmosphere as well.

Meredith saw the joy in Amelia's eyes, and she made up her mind to cure her mother no matter how much she had to pay. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

One day, she would take Easton out with her mother.

They talked for a long time until the nurse came in to give Amelia a routine checkup every day. After the checkup, Meredith saw that Amelia was panting as if she was tired, so Meredith took care of her until she fell asleep and then left with Easton.

Meredith grabbed Easton's hand thoughtfully. Before she knew it, she extruded her strength. Easton noticed it. He looked up and saw that his mother seemed to be in a trance. He did not disturb her. He felt that his mom was worried about something.

After a while, Meredith came back to her senses. "Easton, are you tired? Shall I take you home?" "No, I haven't seen grandma for a long time. It's nice to talk to her."

Easton shook his head and said sensibly.

Meredith smiled and touched his little face.

Although Easton was sometimes naughty... Well, most of the time, he was adorable.

"By the way, your toys..."

Only then did Meredith remember what she had forgotten. Just as she was about to go back to get it, Easton stopped her. "How can a girl take such a big box, mom?"

Although he was still young, Easton had received a gentleman's education since he was a child, but it seemed that he could not rely on himself.

"I'll ask dad to pick me up.”

Easton immediately took out his phone and wanted to call Derek.

Meredith thought she could take a taxi and ask the hospital security to help carry it down. That way, Derek didn't have to come there.

But Derek was Easton's father. She couldn't stop the child from calling his father, so she didn't say anything.

Derek was looking at the documents in his office. His expression was serious, but he was not completely focused on his work.

He wondered how it was going between Easton and his grandmother.

Derek knew very well what Parker was capable of. He was much more crafty than Sheldon. Although Easton was clever, he might not be able to win him.

Just as he was thinking, his phone rang.

Derek immediately answered the phone when he saw Easton's number.

"Easton, what's wrong? Is everything going well?"

"Not bad. I'm in the hospital now. I need to take away a big box. Come and pick me up, dad.”

He knew Derek would not reject him.

That way, Derek could come to see Meredith openly by picking Easton up...

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Derek agreed without hesitation. He took the car keys and left the company.

"Dad said he'll come to pick me up.”

Easton hung up the phone, feeling pleased.

After all, if he had said this before, Derek might have reprimanded him for causing trouble and called the driver to pick him up.

Now, he had a perfect excuse.

"Isn't he busy?"

Meredith didn't really want Derek to appear in front of her. She felt disturbed to see him.

She'd rather not see him.

"l don't know. Leave it be.”

Easton shrugged, and Meredith said nothing more.

They waited outside for a while, and Derek's car arrived.

According to Easton's instructions, Derek became a porter and got the box into the car.

After Derek had finished, Meredith handed him the medicine that the doctor prescribed to Easton this morning. "This is Easton's medicine. Ask him to take it on time. He should eat something light these days.”

Derek reached out his hand. He didn't take the medicine over but held Meredith's hand.

"What about the doctor's orders?"

Meredith blushed and tried to pull her hand out, but she failed. Derek held her hand so tightly. When she looked up and saw Derek's expressionless face, Meredith couldn't help but curse in her heart.

Damn! Did he do this on purpose?

However, he was so calm that she was too embarrassed to withdraw her hand.
