Chapter 406

    Once again, Frank and I were both awkwardly caught off guard.


    I tugged at Grandma''s arm. ''Grandma, about that..."


    "Soon."


    Frank abruptly interrupted me, speaking to urandma in a gentle and polite tone, "Grandma, I''ll marry her soon. You focus on taking care of yourself. Once you''ve recovered, we can hold the wedding" I was dumbfounded.


    The person making this statement didn''t even nce at me, as if the matter waspletely unrted to me.


    Grandma was thrilled, her eyes shining with delight. "Really?"


    "Really," Frank answered with a smile.


    I changed the subject "Grandma, let''s have breakfast quickly. Prof.


    Kilburn will be here soon.


    Judging by the time, Prof. Kilburn was probably finishing his breakfast


    100


    After Bethany and her mother left, I had sent a message to Prof Kilburn''s assistant, informing them that the matter was resolved.


    wasn''t wrong about the timing. Grandma had just finished breakfast


    when Prof. Kilburn and his team returned.


    Since Prof. Kilburn was about to start the treatment, it was best if I


    didn''t stay in the ward. I decided to head back to the hotel to pack my things.


    The house in Region Gardens was still morefortable than the hotel.


    To my surprise, as soon as I stepped out of the elevator with my. suitcase, I saw Frank and Danny waiting in front of my door.


    One was standing, the other sitting.


    I was a bit surprised. "Waiting for me?"


    Frank remained silent, but Danny, with h short legs, ran over and nodded vigorously. "Yes! Charlotte, Uncle is giving me a lift to your house!"


    "And what about your uncle?"


    "Uncle is leaving soon!"


    Frank gave him a sidelong nce. "Who told you that?"


    I asked, "Aren''t you leaving?"


    "I am," Frank spoke indifferently, then pinched Danny''s face and looked at me. "I''m going to a meeting now. He''s in your care. If things get too unbearable, just give him a beating." "Don''t worry. I have no inclination towards violence."


    ,


    "By the way..." He looked at me with deep, serious eyes and then said. something unrted, "The answer that na interruptedst night, I want to hear it again when Ie to pick up Dannyter." I had thought that taking care of such a small child would be very troublesome, but it was surprisingly harmonious.


    Once in the house, I discovered that Frank had arranged for regr cleaning, so the ce was quite clean.


    While I was unpacking, Danny buzzed around me chattering away.


    But when I picked up my drawing board to work, he took out his own puzzle and started working on it seriously on the floor.

    Noticing that I kept watching him, he blinked his big eyes and asked, "What''s up, Charlotte?"


    "I think you''re great. Your focus is very strong."


    "Uncle says, if you do two things at once, you''ll end up being indecisive. in rtionships, and you''ll stay single for life!"


    I couldn''t help butugh. "Do you know what being ngle means?"


    "Yes!" He nodded vigorously. "Someone like Uncle is single!"


    Later in the evening, the doorbell rang unexpectedly.


    I thought Frank hade to pick up Danny, but when I opened the door, it was na.


    I was a bit taken aback. "na, aren''t you going abroad?"


    "There''s still some time."Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    She curved her red lips into a polite smile and asked, "May Ie in and sit for a while?"


    "Of course."


    As soon as I finished speaking, Danny, hearing his mother''s voice, rant over and threw himself into na''s arm., "Mommy! I missed you!"


    "Since you missed Mommy, why not go abroad with her to y?"


    "No!" The little guy shook his head. "I have important business to attend to!"


    na chuckled. "What important business?"


    Danny''s big eyes twirled around, and he pouted, pretending to be mysterious. "I promised Uncle I wouldn''t say."


    "Alright, you go y." na patted his bottom and ushered him into an

    unused room.


    I opened the refrigerator and asked her, "Water or juice?"


    "Neither." na smiled. "I just want to chat with you for a bit before I head to catch my flight."


    I nodded and led her to the living room.


    na was indeed straightforward and didn''t beat around the bush." What are your ns with Frank?"


    If I said I hadn''t thought about this question in the past couple of days, that would be a lie.


    I responded honestly, "I''m still thinking about it right now and haven''te to a conclusion yet."


    ?


    At a time when one could do anything, all driven by youthful passion, my rtionship with Frank had a gap of over 20 years and an additional two-year separation.


    The first 20 years had drastically changed my personality.


    The past two years had filled the gap between us with estrangement.


    na was not surprised and smiled. "You can take your time, no rush. I came specifically to ask you to do something for me. Frank''s temper has worsened over the past two years, and my son... needs you to take more care of him recently."


    "Sure," I smiled and agreed. "Frank''s temper is actually not that bad..."


    "After the explosion, he suffered vision loss and was blind for a long


    time."


    na pursed her lips. "As for his legs, you''ve seen them. For him, it felt. worse than death. At first, he was unwilling to cooperate with treatment, irritable and angry. Do you know why he agreed to the treatment?"


    "Why?"


    "I told him that if he stayed like this or died, ould have you apany him in death.


    na looked at me apologetically. "Don''t take it to heart. At that time, I had no other way, and your abandonment back then did make him very frustrated. As his sister, I was indeed not fond of you."


    I fell silent for a moment, my voice slightly hoarse. "And then?*


    "Then he gritted his teeth and started cooperating with the doctors."


    na said, also somewhat incredulous. "Do you know? At that time, he had already been diagnosed with bipr disorder, but he endured both. psychological and physical torment just for you." Bipr disorder.


    Abination of manic and depressive episodes.


    I clenched my fists. "When was he diagnosed?"


    *Not long after you got back together with Ryan.
