“What’s going on, Kenneth?” Liam demanded.

Kenneth took a deep breath. “Grandpa, this is…”

Suddenly, Liam clutched his chest as though he were in pain.

Kenneth stepped forward hastily. “Grandpa, are you all right?”

Terence held him up. “Don’t scare me, Liam. Where is your medicine? Did you bring them along?” After digging the medicine bottle out of Liam’s pocket, he poured two pills out and fed them to Liam.

“The ambulance! Call the ambulance!” Terence urged.

“On it.” Natasha made the call aside.

At the hospital, everyone waited outside the emergency room anxiously.

Soon, the doctor emerged from the emergency room, and everyone swarmed toward him.

“Doctor, how did it go?”

“Doctor, how is my grandfather doing?”

The doctor removed his mask and gazed at them. “The patient’s doing fine for now. He’s old and is suffering from heart disease, so you have to do your best to not trigger him.”

Hearing that, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

“Can we go and visit him now?”

The doctor answered, “You can visit him once he is sent to his ward. Remember, don’t trigger him.”

Kenneth gave a firm nod.

Soon, Liam was rolled to his ward, and everyone went to visit him.

Liam harrumphed icily when he saw Kenneth and pretended he didn’t see him.

Kenneth said nothing in fear of inducing his anger.

Terence came up to him. “Liam, you gave me a scare.
