Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau-Chapter 663 - 347: What Should We Do Now? (First Update, Please Give Recommendation Tickets!)
Lawrence Winters and Kenneth Osborne couldn’t help but exchange glances, both pondering why Cameron Spencer was here at the hospital after three days.
Could it be that he’s here to stir up trouble while Nick Zeller’s wounds are just starting to heal?
Or is he merely here for a visit?
Lawrence was thinking quickly and soon concluded that Cameron must simply be visiting.
Because Nick’s improvement was a coincidence, especially since Ian Lothrop performing his surgery was quite unexpected.
She prompted Kenneth with a look to exit the elevator first.
Kenneth took the hint, stepped out ahead, and smiled at Cameron Spencer, saying, "Mr. Spencer, are you here for registration or visiting the patient?"
Cameron glanced at him, anxious, and replied curtly, "I’m here to see someone. Are you leaving already?"
By this time, Lawrence had already messaged Gabrielle Winters, warning her to be cautious since Cameron Spencer was there.
Gabrielle replied immediately: Got it.
In the patient ward, Nick Zeller was already informed and felt no desire to deal with Cameron. So, he coordinated his response with Gabrielle.
Lawrence knew Gabrielle and Nick were prepared, so she felt at ease and stepped out of the elevator too.
She wore a blank expression, saying flatly, "Kenneth, let’s go. We need to get food; my mom’s stomach isn’t well, and she can’t eat the hospital food."
She merely nodded at Cameron Spencer without saying anything, pulling Kenneth along.
Kenneth turned back with a apologetic look toward Cameron and said, "Mr. Spencer, please go ahead. We’re going back to pick up some things."
Francis Johnson hadn’t said much the whole time.
He maintained a mild smile and followed Lawrence and Kenneth out of the elevator, not greeting Cameron either.
Cameron, unfamiliar with him, knew of his name but had never met him, so didn’t pay him any mind.
Leaving the hospital, Francis went back to wrap things up while Lawrence and Kenneth returned to the flat.
The old Daoist was already waiting at home, having packed the freshly prepared meals and soup into thermal containers and placed them on the dining table.
Seeing Lawrence and Kenneth return, the old Daoist looked at them expectantly and asked, "How is your master? Is he feeling better?"
Lawrence smiled and said, "Much better. We got a skilled doctor to perform the surgery today. He’s already awoken but needs to recover for some time."
The old Daoist exhaled deeply, bowed toward the western direction, and murmured, "Oh Three Pure Ones above, please bless the disciples with smooth and safe paths."
Lawrence followed suit respectfully.
Kenneth stood aside, hands tucked in his pants pockets, silently, expressionless.
After the grandfather and grandson finished their rites, Kenneth asked, "Old Immortal, my uncle just woke up and we want to bring some food to him and my mother-in-law."
The old Daoist chuckled and said, "I’ve already prepared everything, calculated the time you’d be back to get it, and packed everything in the dining room."
"What? Grandmaster, your foresight is amazing!" Lawrence extended her thumbs up, "Would you like to visit my master at the hospital?"
"Um, I won’t go. I’ve been cooking all day, I’m tired, I’ll go rest for a while." The old Daoist massaged his waist and quickly retreated to his room.
Watching the old Daoist’s back, Lawrence couldn’t shake the impression of an "escape," murmuring, "Grandmaster seems afraid to see my master... Is it just my imagination?"
Kenneth came out of the dining room with several food containers, speaking lightly, "Not just your imagination, I sensed it too."
They exchanged a glance, puzzled by the old Daoist’s ulterior motives.
But at the moment, they didn’t have the time to delve into the issue.
After all, the old Daoist was over eighty, wise with age, surely having his reasons for his actions, and as juniors, they weren’t in a position to criticize.
Lawrence now only worried about Cameron Spencer visiting Nick Zeller, fearing any trouble might arise.
She hurried Kenneth to return to the hospital.
On the way, Lawrence remembered Gabrielle and Nick’s situation, thinking it would be unfitting not to inform Kenneth, otherwise, he’d keep calling Nick "Uncle," which would be awkward.
So, Lawrence hinted gently, "Kenneth, my master isn’t really my uncle, you know."
"Hmm."
"Um, my mom has decided to be with him. Once my master fully recovers, they might get registered." As Lawrence finished, she saw Kenneth almost losing grip on the steering wheel.
The tires screeched loudly, leaving a noticeable mark on the black asphalt road.
