Chapter 293 - Shes not yet healthy for too much hugs (1/2)
Looking at the two oldies staring at Diana's stomach lovingly, but couldn't join in, because they haven't seen Diana before, Ethan sighed before greeting them.
They weren't on good terms, because they tried to make him inherit the hospital, which he refused.
He's not their only grandchild, but they were so adamant on making him inherit it, instead of the company.
This causes a dispute between him and his cousin then. They didn't give it to someone that's on the same line and qualified for it.
It felt hypocritical to him, because they knew he studied business and was brought up to take over the company. Forcing it on him isn't caring, but annoying.
Up till date, his cousin hated him for something he had no input in. They let him be after he fought them, which they also responded to, by breaking ties with him.
They said he chose his father's side over them. They haven't talked since then, but he's not the type that harbors ill feelings for long.
If he needed something medical related, he sought help from the hospital, instead of going elsewhere, unless it's necessary.
They heard about it and didn't say anything, but still refused to talk to him. He wondered why they decided to do that now.
”Hi.” Diana greeted the old couple as grandpa introduced them.
She smiled awkwardly as the woman was staring at her stomach. ”mom? dad?” she heard Melanie's voice from behind.
Before she could wrap her head around everything, she was already in the old woman's embrace. ”What a beautiful girl. How are you child?” the woman asked, while her husband smiled at her stupefied expression.
Regaining herself, she hugged her back, ”I'm fine.” she said, but Ethan was already separating them, ”she's not healthy for too much hugs.” he said.
”Ha!” Daina exclaimed as the woman began hitting Ethan.
”You rascal. How dare you take a wife and didn't let us hear about it. How dare you forget about us…..” the woman rant on and on.
Diana furrowed her brow and later relaxed it after Ethan rolled his eyes at the woman. She could tell they weren't on good terms before.
She chuckled and gestured for him to stop being stubborn and respond to the woman. The husband saw how she communicated with Ethan with her eyes and saw Ethan hugging the old woman.
”There grandma. This rascal didn't forget you. I've been busy with work.” he said, easing the tension, before the couple loosen up completely.
”What a good girl you got boy.” Diana heard his grandpa say, and smile at the old man.
After a few introductions and all, they all head inside. Ethan tried to reject the doctors that came, but one of them was the one who operated on Diana for her former illness, who was also someone he confide in, whenever he needed medical help from their hospital.
