Chapter 199
Everleigh stared at the phone screen for a few seconds and heard Cecil, who was beside her, say, "Don't you want to answer it?" Only then did she come back to her senses and hesitantly pressed the answer button.
"Hello?"
"Is Hansen with you?" As soon as the line was connected, an anxious female voice came from the other end. It was Yvonne.
Everleigh was stunned. "Hansen? What happened to Hansen?"
"I went to school late and wasn't able to fetch him. The teacher of the school said that he, Alastair and Adrienne went back together." "What?" Everleigh's face changed.
"Is Hansen with you now?" Yvonne's tone was urgent and anxious.
Everleigh came back to her senses quickly and said, "Don't worry. Alastair and Adrienne will come to the hospital to visit Madam Scott as soon as school is over. If they took Hansen with them, they should also..."
She didn't finish speaking because as she said this, Everleigh suddenly realized that there was something wrong.
Oh no!
Alastair and Adrienne were both troublemakers. Could it be that they had brought Hansen to Helen's place?
After she hung up the phone, Everleigh went to Helen's ward immediately.
"Hey, Everleigh, what happened?"
She could hear Cecil's voice behind her, but she had no time to answer.
Although she did not know much about the Godfrey family, she had worked as a family doctor in Yvonne's family. She had said a lot to Everleigh, including Helen, who had never seen Yvonne's two children all these years.
Twenty years ago, Wilson left the Godfrey family, and he left without any possessions. It was said that Helen even removed Wilson from the Godfrey family's genealogy. She wouldn't even meet her own son, let alone her grandchildren.
Thinking of the trouble that Alastair and Adrienne had caused, Everleigh had a headache. As soon as she got out of the elevator, she hurried to the ward. She walked faster and faster, and finally, she almost ran into the ward.
As soon as she arrived at the door, she heard a burst of laughter from inside.
Separated by a door, the atmosphere in the ward was very harmonious and warm.
On the carpet in the living room, the "three little pigs" who wore pink hoodies were lying around the coffee table.
The voice of a 'little pig' on the right was very soft, but it was clear, "Brother, our grass house has been blown away by the wind and the wooden house has also been burned. The big gray wolf is chasing us. What should we do?"
The 'little pig' on the left said in a calm tone, "My house is made from bricks. It can't be blown away by the wind or burned by the fire. The big gray wolf definitely can't get in."
The 'little pig' in the middle glanced to the left. "But the door is not made of bricks. It's made of wood."
As soon as she finished speaking, the 'little pig' on the left sighed helplessly and said, "Adrienne, why did you change your lines? Can you follow the script?"
Adrienne's voice was soft. Under her hood, a pair of beautiful big eyes flickered. "But the door is really made of wood. If the big gray wolf burns the door, won't it be able to come in?"
After that, she looked opposite her to seek approval. "Great-Grandma, don't you agree?"
Before Helen could speak, the sound of a door opening interrupted the "little theatre's" rehearsal.
Everleigh held the door with one hand, her chest heaving under her white coat as she panted. She looked nervously at the situation in the room, and what she was about to say was suddenly stuck in her throat. She was stunned and asked, "What... are you all doing?"
On both sides of the coffee table, there were three 'little pigs' and a 'big gray wolf.
"Mommy!" The 'little pig' in the middle pulled off her hood, revealing her chubby little face. She rushed toward Everleigh. "We're rehearsing for the children's play. Alastair, Hansen and I are playing the three little pigs. Great-Grandma is playing the big gray wolf."
At this time, Helen also pulled off her hood. Maybe because she had been under the hood for too long, but her face was a little ruddy. She took two deep breaths as soon as she removed it. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
"How can you fool around, Adrienne?" Everleigh felt a little embarrassed and asked, "Grandma, are you all right?"
Helen looked at the children adoringly and said with a smile, "Why wouldn't I be? The children came to accompany me and I am so happy. Adrienne also invited me to watch the children's play in their
school, right?"
As she spoke, Helen stretched out her hand and caressed Adrienne's head.
Adrienne smiled and revealed a row of small teeth. She looked up at Everleigh and said, "Mommy, Alastair, Hansen and I will all be performing in the children's play at school. You must also come!"
Everleigh nodded perfunctorily. At this time, her mind was not on the two children of her family. Her mind was on the child behind Alastair.
Hansen looked very well- behaved and sensible. He was as quiet as a mouse. Since Everleigh came in, he hadn't said a word, but he kept blinking. He was happy to see everything and was full of innocence.
"Aunt Trevino," Hansen obediently said hello to Everleigh.
Everleigh nodded and forced out a kind smile. "Hansen, why didn't you wait for your mother to pick you up after school? Why did you follow Alastair and Adrienne here?"
Hansen smiled. "I asked to come here myself. Aunt Trevino, please don't blame Alastair and Adrienne."
Everleigh didn't believe a word. Hansen usually never went out on his own. How could he have taken the initiative to come to the hospital? She was convinced that it was her two children's fault. To put it more accurately, it was 100% Adrienne's fault.
"What's wrong? Are his family members worried?" Helen asked.
Everleigh's heart tightened, and she forced herself to say, "Yes, they are a little anxious. Fortunately, the school teacher said that he was with Alastair and Adrienne, so I was called and told that Hansen would be picked up later."
As soon as Everleigh finished speaking, the phone in her hand rang. She glanced at the caller ID and hurriedly said, "Grandma, I'll take Hansen away first. His mother is here."
Helen glanced at Hansen who was opposite her. "Hurry up and go home. Don't let your mother worry."
Hansen nodded, then he stood up with his small arms supporting the coffee table. "Great-Grandma, bye-bye."
Helen shook her head while helping Hansen tidy up his collar. She corrected him kindly, "Not Great- Grandma; it's Grandma."
Hansen was somewhat puzzled. "Grandma?"
This simple phrase reverberated in the large living room. Hansen's voice was not loud. Because of his doubts, his voice was even softer. However, the word fell clearly into Everleigh's ears, making her heart pound.
She cast a look of astonishment at Helen.
She had originally thought that Helen didn't know who Hansen was. After all, he was brought there by the mischievous Alastair and Adrienne and introduced as their classmate.
But the phrase 'Grandma' explained everything.
"Grandma, you know that Hansen..."
Everleigh was halfway through her sentence when she saw that Helen didn't seem to have any intention of explaining.
