Chapter 1233 As the two followed him and stepped into the ward, Johnny quickly pressed the automatic door close button. The heavy white door closed with a bang at an extremely fast. speed, cutting off all the S members who hadn’t had time to enter… Even Herb, who was right behind them, was locked out. Looking at the closed blinds inside, Herb frowned. It was understandable that Johnny didn’t let Griffon’ bodyguard in, but why not even him? After closing the door, Johnny walked up to the two with his hands in his pockets and his gloomy gaze fell on Taya.
“Cousin, come with me.” When he smiled, he seemed harmless, but the expression in his eyes revealed his ill intentions. His malicious intent made Taya nervous, but the man beside her squeezed her hand to signal her not to worry. Although the S members disguised as bodyguards didn’t come in with them, as long as Griffon was there, Taya felt safe. After her heart gradually calmed down, she held Griffon’ hand tightly and followed Johnny through the white doors to the innermost ward… As Johnny pushed the door open, she saw the woman lying on the hospital bed at a glance – Alice. She was already over fifty years old, and her charm and beauty had disappeared from her face, which had been settled by the torment of illness. She looked haggard and emaciated, a picture of a person who was seriously ill, but the deep-set eyes revealed a glimmer of hope to live. “Sumasa…” Alice, who was breathing with the help of an oxygen tank, widened her eyes as she saw Taya enter the
room. “Are you… here to pick me up?” she asked. Taya tilted her head slightly, wondering why Alice was so shocked and afraid that Sumasa had come to pick her up. Did she have something to hide? “Mother,” Johnny stepped forward and held Alice’s hand. He patiently explained in a soft voice, “She’s not Sumasa, she’s Sumasa’s second daughter, Taya.” Upon hearing her son’s voice, Alice’s eyes flickered for a moment. She quickly concealed her shock and replaced it with the confusion of a weak person. “Oh, I thought it was Sumasa coming to get me…” she said. After speaking, Alice reached out her hand and Johnny immediately helped her up. With Johnny’s support, Alice sat up straight and lifted her tired eyelids to examine the two people who were still standing at the door, indifferent. She first looked at Taya, then shifted her gaze to Griffon. When she saw the chill emanating from him, she couldn’t help but frown. “Alpha Knight, could you please step out for a moment? I want to talk to my niece,” she said. Alice seemed too eager to get rid of Griffon without even saying a touching word to her long-lost relative.
