You're Out Daddy

Liam strode over, his gaze falling upon Kenneth. “What happened?”

“Grandpa,” Kenneth greeted politely before launching into his explanation. “Thea is undergoing emergency treatment as we speak.”

Liam narrowed his eyes.

Caroline learned of their relationship from the way Kenneth greeted the old man.

Standing before her was the patriarch of the Hamilton family, who had once shaken the business world. She often heard his name abroad in praise of his sharp mind and business acumen for which he was famous.

Caroline suddenly felt at a loss for words as she gazed at the titan before her.

At that moment, the emergency room door opened to admit the doctor.

“Which one of you is Thea Jarman’s family?” he asked.

“I am,” Caroline said at once.

“Oh, there is nothing wrong with the patient,” assured the doctor. “Low blood sugar level and not eating had caused her to faint, that’s all. It’s nothing serious, so don’t worry too much. She will be transferred to a ward in a moment to be put on a drip.”

A giddy wave of relief swept over Caroline upon hearing that.

“Thank God it’s nothing serious.” Upon recalling something, she turned to the doctor. “Thank you so much, doctor.”

“It’s part of my job.” He smiled and walked back in again without another word.

Kenneth’s tense brows relaxed a little upon hearing that it was nothing serious.

Liam rolled his eyes at Kenneth as he studied the latter, failing to stifle a complaint. “What are the odds of the two women coming to the same hospital?”

Kenneth did not know how to respond to that.

“If there’s nothing else, I’m going to see Nat.”

Liam spun around and led Denise and Benjamin away without giving his grandson a chance to speak.

He did not even deign to greet Caroline.

By the time Caroline turned around, Liam was already walking away with the two children. She frowned as she watched them.
