Unfinished Business with You novel

Chapter 14

Just then, Penny’s voice rang out from the room. “Grandpa! Grandpa, you’re awake!”

All this while, she had been staring unblinkingly at Old Man Nolan, who was lying on the bed.

That shout of hers surprised everybody in the room. Then, they all rushed toward the bed.

Olivia frowned as she was worried that these people would squash her child. She was just about to go over and take him away. Unexpectedly, Eugene was one step ahead of her, picking the child up in his arms. However, his expression was not pretty—he was scowling fiercely. “Curtis, Connor, let them visit Grandpa in batches. Grandpa just woke up; he won’t be able to take so much noise all at once.”

Curtis and Connor immediately responded to his instructions. The Nolan Family was flourishing. After all, Old Man Nolan himself had four children. Each child had around one or two children of their own. From there, their children had children of their own. If one added all of them up, the Nolan Family consisted of nearly 180 people. Today, there were only 23 of them present. However, if so many people crowded around the old man, they might just squash him so badly that he’d meet his maker.

On the other hand, Olivia took her child from Eugene and thanked him.

North’s small mouth was pressed tightly together, and his big, black, grape-like eyes blinked in the direction of Eugene. This is my daddy! My daddy carried me! Daddy carried me!

How could Olivia have known that the little guy in her arms was about to explode with excitement? Thus, she talked to Eugene in a business-like manner, “Old Man Nolan should be fine by now. I’ll prescribe a prescription for him. Let him take this medicine; it will speed up his recovery.”

Eugene nodded and followed her into the living room. Then, she wrote down a prescription on a piece of paper and handed it to him. “Take this twice a day for half a month; once in the morning and once at night. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”
