Chapter 667 Nicholas Situation (1/2)

It was already late evening when Carla and Sally left Violet's house after staying there the whole day.

”Good evening, Mrs. Carla! I'm here to pick you up.”

Rainer stepped closer to them and gestured to the car he brought.

”Where's Terence? Is he done with work?” Carla asked as she buckled Sally into her baby seat.

Rainer sighed before softly replying, ”Mrs. Carla, Mr. Terence went to the hospital this afternoon. Mr. Nicholas was... not in a good condition.”

The news stunned Carla because she just visited Nicholas before she went to visit Andrea. Just a couple of days ago, he looked haggard but otherwise okay. Carla couldn't believe that he was now in critical condition.

”Rainer, let's go to the hospital.”

The doctor had estimated that Nicholas had roughly about five years to live despite the heart surgery he got four years ago.

While his heart had gotten better fine, the fact that Nicholas was old made him more susceptible to other sickness.

Rainer quickly drove them to the hospital.

Edmund and Terence were already there, entertaining Nicholas in the ward when they arrived. Even if Nicholas went through more treatments, there was no use of making him better. The doctor could only keep Nicholas alive in bed.

As much as they would like to try, Nicholas would not get better. And any more attempts would only bring him more pain.

”Terence, let me talk to your father alone...”

Nicholas voice came out raspy when he spoke to Terence.

”Okay, Grandpa.” Terence looked at him before he quietly walked out the room.

Outside the room, When they saw Terence outside, Carla walked to him with Sally in tow. ”How is he? Is Grandpa okay?”

A gloomy expression appeared on his handsome face as he shook his head.

”The doctor said he might only have a month left.”

That was heavy. Carla could only bite on her lower lip because she didn't know what to say.

”Daddy, is Great-grandpa sick?”
