The True Heiress's Return
Chapter 339
Chapter 339
Upon hearing these words, Walter's expression tightened, becoming completely dark and brooding.
"Grandma." Fiona was both shocked and happy. When she learned Grandma was critically ill, she rushed to the hospital only to be told that Grandmother didn't want to see her.
At that moment, Fiona was heartbroken. She was panicked, not understanding why Grandma suddenly couldn't hold on, nor why she was being stopped from seeing her one last time.
But now, hearing what Grandma said, it broke her heart as Grandma, who had always been proud, would beg Walter for her sake. Fiona thought, 'Even on her deathbed, Grandma was thinking of and caring about me!
Fiona was heartbroken and full of guilt and regret. Yet, meanwhile, a small sense of relief sneaked in. In such a crucial moment, Walter, who valued relationships highly, would definitely not refuse Grandma. Once he made a promise, he would never break it. Jaslene knew her time was limited, and in her almost drifting state, she could no longer make out Walter's expression. Not hearing his voice, Jaslene enunciated her words clearly and her weak voice was full of earnestness.
"Walter, I know you value loyalty and honor. When your mother had complications giving birth to you, it was the top medical team of the Banks family that saved you from disaster.
"It had been a long time and I don't want to use it as a demand, but I can't trust anyone else with my granddaughter, only you," said Jaslene.
In the end, Jaslene's consciousness faded away, with her mouth opening and closing, but no sound emerged. Fiona slightly lifted her head, with her tear-streaked eyes fixing intently on Walter.
She choked back a sob and spoke softly, "Walter, this is Grandma's last wish before she leaves us. I know it's asking a lot of you, but it's her only wish left. Please, can you promise her this so she can pass away peacefully?" Levi and Brian stood nearby, with their expressions heavy with concern. Jaslene's request was clearly a kind of emotional blackmail. They felt it was unfair to Walter, but they weren't in a position to voice this.
Without glancing at Fiona, Walter kept his deep gaze on Jaslene on the screen, and his thin lips were pressed together. After a moment, under everyone's gaze, Walter finally spoke. "Jaslene, rest in peace." Tears fell from Fiona's eyes as she instinctively forced a smile.
"The life-saving grace from years ago has been repaid many times over by my grandfather and father to the Banks family. I'm sorry, but I cannot fulfill your request," said Walter. Walter's words were firm and powerful, with each one spoken with determination. In an instant, Fiona's expression froze in a weird, half-smile twist.
Walter's answer was completely unexpected to her. Fiona thought, 'He refused. He went so far as to say no.'
There was a long silence from Jaslene, and finally, using the last of her strength, she instructed Fiona in a quivering tone. "Where is Ms. Nelson? I want to have a word with her." Fiona broke down, turning the phone towards herself. "Grandma. At a time like this, why don't you want to see me?"
