Chapter 569: Chapter 569: Finding Daniel Marshall’s mother
“Grandfather, please try not to get worked up. You should take care of your health.”
Olivia Jenkins tried to soothe him gently, but his mood did not improve immediately.
Fearing that anything might endanger her grandfather, Olivia decided to placate him first.
“Grandfather, I promise you, I will give birth to a great-grandson for you. You will definitely get to hold your great-grandson, so you should just focus on healing.”
Upon hearing Olivia’s agreement to have a child, Mr. Alexander Marshall’s face softened slightly, and his mood seemed to improve a bit.
Olivia still held her grandfather’s hand, trying to soothe him as much as possible by telling him the things he wanted to hear.
Mr. Alexander Marshall, who was always full of vitality and exuded an aura of dominance, now seemed much less so. After being injured and bedridden, it was as if he had aged tremendously overnight.
When he talked, he sounded weaker. His voice was soft, slightly hoarse, and somewhat slurred, “Olivia, I’m fully aware of my own condition. I also know you’re trying to pacify me and comfort me.
Everything I’ve said to you is from the heart. You must take it seriously. I’m saying this for your own good and for Daniel’s. In fact, I’m aware that Daniel has always missed his mother and longs for her. If the opportunity arises, please accompany him in his search for her.”
Olivia widened her eyes in surprise.
It was completely unexpected. She never thought that her grandfather would say these words to her.
After a short breath, Mr. Alexander Marshall continued, “I’ve had brain surgery, and my brain may not function as well as it used to. I don’t know when I’ll recover, if I even can at all. You and Daniel must beware of Bella Thompson. She is not as simple as she seems and has wicked intentions.”
“Grandfather, I understand your worry. You should rest. You’re straining yourself by talking. Let me get you some warm water.”
After drinking some warm water, Mr. Alexander Marshall was still unwilling to rest. Looking at Olivia, he reiterated, “You must follow my advice. You must have a child. Daniel is actually very soft-hearted. Once the child is born, everything will be okay.”
“…”
If you two don’t have a child, your grandmother’s shares will be donated to a charity foundation. Sometimes, victory or defeat can come down to a single idea, and a few percentage points of shares can also determine the winner.”
Suddenly, Mr. Alexander Marshall furrowed his eyebrows.
Sensing that something was wrong, Olivia quickly pressed the emergency bell.
At the same time, Olivia gently prodded, “Grandfather, stop talking. I will definitely heed your words. You have to hang in there, get better. You will get to see your great-grandson.”
“Olivia, my head hurts, I’m afraid I might lose my memory.”
“Grandfather, the doctor is here to see you. You will be alright, you still remember us.”
Mr. Alexander Marshall stopped talking, his expressions full of pain.
The Chief Medical Officer arrived and immediately began his examination. His expression was very serious.
The nurse quickly took Mr. Alexander Marshall’s temperature, fortunately he did not have a fever.
Under the guidance of the Chief Medical Officer, the nurse gave Mr. Alexander Marshall an injection. Soon after, he fell into a quiet slumber.
After the nurse left, Olivia discussed the matter with the Chief Medical Officer. “Just now, my grandfather was quite agitated. He’s very worried about losing his memory and forgetting many things.”
“Brain injuries are different from external wounds. It takes time to heal. Currently, Mr. Alexander Marshall’s recovery is satisfactory. It’s normal to experience headaches for one to two weeks after surgery. After that, the key part is rehabilitation therapy. You all should keep him company. He can’t stand stress and you should talk about happy events with him as much as possible.”
Olivia nodded, “Understood, thank you, doctor!”
…
At the Marshall Corporation’s high-level meeting, except for Chief Daniel Marshall, everyone was present, but there were two vacant seats.
It was apparent without saying, yet everyone present held their lips tight.
Suddenly, the conference room door opens and Daniel Marshall entered, accompanied by a woman and a man.
