Chapter 1140
Until she got into the hospital, Winnie still found it unbelievable that all this had happened.
But Channing didn't give her a chance to refuse, and led her straight to the door of the ward.
Inside the ward, the doctor was giving Mr. Thomas a final checkup and gave him a few instructions that he was old and needed to pay attention to his health and come to the hospital immediately if he was not feeling well.
When the doctor left, Channing knocked on the door.
Mr. Thomas' voice rang out, "Come in."
Channing was just about to lead Winnie inside when she stopped in her tracks and clutched his hand tightly.
She wore a mask, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes: "Or, I'd rather not go in, I'll just wait for you here ......"
Channing glanced inside: "What a difference it makes to go in and wait out."
Winnie: "......"
She just, wasn't mentally ready for it.
Once again, Mr. Thomas' puzzled voice came from inside: "Chan?"
Channing responded, and then led Winnie into the hospital room.
Mr. Thomas was packing his things, and when he saw Channing and Winnie enter one after the other, he couldn't help but look at them, his eyes glancing back and forth.
Winnie was a little nervous about the hand Channing was holding, she took off her mask and stammered out, "Hello Mr. Thomas, I ......"
Mr. Thomas put down his hand, smiled and said, "I know you, I've seen a lot of your TV and movies."
Winnie was embarrassed by his words and bent her head slightly to express her respect.
Mr. Thomas looked at Channing again, "Georgie didn't follow you here."
"I didn't tell her you were being discharged today."
Mr. Thomas sighed and got up with his hands behind his back: "It's better if I didn't tell her, my head hurts from all the noise she makes all day."
After the words, his eyes fell on the hand that Channing was holding Winnie.
Upon noticing his gaze, Winnie immediately drew her hand back, keeping a smile on her face.
Channing didn't say anything, just went to get the things Mr. Thomas had packed: "Let's go."
Mr. Thomas turned around to get the cane, Winnie was quick to grab it and handed it to him.
Seeing this, Mr. Thomas nodded with satisfaction and stumbled out with his cane.
As Channing took his things, Winnie walked beside Mr. Thomas, holding him vaguely.
Mr. Thomas lamented as he walked: "People are getting old, I was walking faster than you young people in the past few years."
Winnie looked at the old man's graying hair and didn't know what to say.
She was silent for a while and said, "People will get old one day, you must take care of your health."
On the way back, Channing drove the car while Mr. Thomas chatted with Winnie.
When he arrived at the Thomas family, a maid immediately came up to help him out of the car.
Mr. Thomas turned back to the two of them and said, "Come in, all of you, and have a cup of tea that I made myself before you leave."
Channing nodded slightly, "Good."
Winnie looked around, which is slowly all Chinese garden style, looks quiet and secluded.
The air in this courtyard seems to be much better than outside.
Channing parked the car and stood in front of her, "What's on your mind."
Winnie retrieved her thoughts, "Nothing, I just think, Mr. Thomas is quite nice ......"
There's not much of a shelf either.
Kindly like a close elder in the family.
Channing smiled, "Go inside."
In the tea room, Mr. Thomas was already sitting and making tea.
Channing and Winnie sat across from him.
Mr. Thomas poured a glass for each of them and said to Winnie, "Taste my cooking."
Winnie picked up the still smoking cup of tea, took a sip, waited until it was not hot, and then tilted her head to drink.
Between the lips and teeth, are a light tea flavor.
Mr. Thomas asked, "Well?"
Winnie put down her cup of tea and replied sincerely, "I don't know anything about tea, but it smells good and quenches my thirst."
Mr. Thomas smiled and laughed twice: "Good, good, good, good tea is good if it can quench your thirst."
With that, he gave her another cup: "Drink more if you're thirsty."
Winnie is a little embarrassed, but she really does not know these tea tasting, completely unable to say what four, five, six out, she turned her head, just to meet the Channing smiling gaze.
She instantly blushed.
Channing withdrew his eyes and picked up his cup of tea, a smile floating on his lips, "I'm thirsty too."
Winnie: "......"
After a few people sat for a while, Winnie's cell phone rang and it was a work call from her assistant.
She said she was sorry, and got up and went out of the tea room to get through.
Mr. Thomas picked up his cup of tea and looked over at Channing: "I finally know why you don't like Georgie, she is indeed much prettier."
Channing looked at Winnie's back as she left and raised her eyebrows gently.
At this time, a voice came from the inner door, "Grandpa, why didn't you tell me when you were discharged from the hospital?"
Mr. Thomas put down his cup of tea: "You can't see a single person all day long, how can I tell you."
As he spoke, Georgie had come running over and sat down next to him, looking straight at Channing and complaining, "It's not his fault, he's been avoiding me and now he won't let me come into the office to find him, or else how would I ......"
Mr. Thomas said, "What do you blame him for, don't you have a life of your own."
"I don't know a single person here, just him, and of course he's going to ......"
"Georgie, I told you, if you have nothing to do, go back to school, I'm well here, no need for you to take care of, just don't be angry with me." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Georgie frowned, "Grandpa, whose side are you on anyway."
Mr. Thomas grunted twice, "I'm not standing for anyone, but you need to stop as well."
Georgie asked Channing, "Do you want me to go back to school right away, too."
"If you want, I can arrange for you to leave tonight."
Hearing this, Georgie was even more upset.
She was about to say something when she noticed that there was a teacup next to Channing, and on the teacup, there was a faint lipstick mark, which was obviously used by a woman.
Georgie said, "Who came with you."
Channing looked the same: "My girlfriend."
"When did you-"
Mr. Thomas held Georgie down: "Okay, I was just telling you to stop, are you listening to me or not."
Georgie instantly red eyes: "Grandpa, I'm your granddaughter, why do you always favor him, my parents died when I was young, and you sent me abroad, I've been alone for so many years, now it's hard to have someone you like, even if you don't help me, you still scold me."
Without waiting for Mr. Thomas to say anything, Georgie choked up again, "I heard them say that you never liked my father, so you don't like me either, right?"
Mr. Thomas was disappointed: "Where are you talking about, don't listen to the nonsense out there."
Georgie stood up, all accusatory: "That must be it, if you really spoiled me, you wouldn't always say I'm wrong about this and that!"
