His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 186

"Don't worry. As long as you do the surgery, I will bring her to meet you. I can assure you this." Charles said calmly. "She is preoccupied with so many things that I am afraid she would have no time to meet you at the moment."

"Well, I just want to know... I just want to know if she is fine." Arthur bit his tongue as he was about to say something. He was anxious to know what happened to Autumn in these years.

"No, to be frank she is not fine, " replied Charles. Charles shook his head slightly. Autumn had gotten involved in a series of troublesome affairs. Her grandmother's illness, Isla's accident as well as Yvonne's drama drained all of her energy.

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you." Charles said. "Autumn's grandma is also in this hospital and she is in critical condition. If you want to see her, I suggest that you do it soon. She is running out of time and you may not have many chances to meet her."

After Charles left, Arthur checked at the information desk which room Autumn's grandma was confined then hurried to it. Autumn happened to be there feeding her grandmother some porridge. "Do you like it? Does it taste good?" Autumn asked softly with a smile.

Her weak grandmother nodded slightly, smiling back at her, "Autumn, you don't have to feed me. I can eat on my own."

"Don't move, grandma. I'm happy to do it." Autumn scooped a spoonful of porridge, blew on it a little to cool it then gently put it in her grandma's mouth. "Grandma, I still remember, you used to feed me like this and you always took good care of me. Now it is my turn to take care of you. "

"What a good girl." Grandma reached out her hands, patting Autumn's back gently and said, "I am so lucky to be your grandmother and to have you in my life. I could die without any regret."

"Grandma, please don't talk like that. You are my only family. Please don't leave me alone in this world." Autumn's eyes glistened with tears. "Grandma, my heart breaks when you say that. Never talk like that again. Promise me, grandma. As long as I am here, I won't let anything happen to you. You will get better and help me take care of my children. You have to make it through."

The poor old lady was amused by Autumn's words. She held Autumn's cheeks and cherished this beautiful moment. "I'm glad to hear that from you, my sweetheart, but I am afraid that I would be too old to help you. I am unable to take care of myself now."

She barely finished talking when she coughed and panted for breath, which scared Autumn. Autumn hastily took a glass of water from the bed stand. "Are you okay, grandma? Do you need to take a sip of the water?"

"Don't worry about me, Autumn. I am fine." Her grandmother reassured Autumn. Even though she knew that she had only a few days left to live, she didn't want Autumn to worry. She only wished happiness for her granddaughter.

Autumn gazed at her poor skinny grandmother, feeling helpless. Suddenly, the door was pushed open. Autumn looked to find a man standing by the door. He even stared at Autumn without a blink until Autumn frowned. "I am sorry, Sir. I am afraid that you are in the wrong ward." said Autumn softly.

Arthur was wearing plain clothes so Autumn thought that he had somehow gotten lost.

"No, he isn't." Autumn's grandmother, lying quietly on the bed, suddenly spoke. Arthur didn't move his eyes from Autumn until he heard Autumn's grandmother.

"Grandma, do you know him? Is he your friend?" Autumn asked, a little confused.

"Yes. Of course I know him. Autumn, please help me up." After so many years, she could still recognize Arthur. The poor old lady understood that she was dying and Autumn was the only one she cared about in this world. If the Zhao family would acknowledge Autumn as one of their own, then she might die in peace.
