Chapter 1079
Chapter 1079
While Nathan was still on the phone, Mila was already eagerly packing her bag and putting on her shoes.
As soon as Nathan finished his call, he stood up and said, “Let’s go to the hospital.” By this time, Mila was already prepared.
Jasper and Imogen just came back from the hospital. Upon learning that they had to go out again, both of them were stunned.
Nathan and Mila walked ahead, hand in hand. Jasper and Imogen walked side by side behind them.
Leaning close to Jasper’s ear, Imogen whispered, “Your parents have such a great relationship. Even after decades of marriage, they still hold hands while walking.”
Jasper gave her a small smile and said, “Whenever my dad is with my mom, he always holds her hand. It’s muscle memory by now.”
“Is your dad strict?” Imogen asked quietly.
Jasper replied, “It depends. With my mom, he’s very gentle. With everyone else, he’s quite stern.”
“Is he stern with you too?”
‘I’d say he’s more strict than stern.”
Outside, a luxury car slowly came out from the garage, one after another. Nathan and Mila got into one car, while Jasper and Imogen took another.
In the car, Imogen felt tired and leaned on Jasper’s shoulder. Her action slightly stunned Jasper.
Gazing at Imogen gently, his heart raced. He slowly lowered his body to let her rest more comfortably. It was the first time Imogen had voluntarily leaned on him.
Clearing his throat, he asked quietly, “Are you tired?”
Imogen closed her eyes and replied, “Yeah, a bit.”
“Then take a nap. I’ll wake you up when we arrive.”
*Jasper, are your parents going to the hospital to visit my dad?”
“Yes,” Jasper replied while holding her hand. As he gently rubbed her hand, he continued, “It might seem abrupt, but that’s just how my dad is.”
Imagen gave him a resigned smile and said, “My parents will be so nervous.”
“And there will be others too,” Jasper said.
Imogen asked in confusion, “Who else?”
“The Gibson family.”
Imogen was surprised, and her exhaustion disappeared. She looked at Jasper in shock and asked, “The Gibson family? Why are they coming?”
When he looked at her, he noticed she was really afraid. He gently caressed her head and said, “With my dad there, you don’t need to fear anyone. I overheard him making a call to investigate this incident.
“If the Gibson family is responsible, they’ll have to apologize and face legal consequences.”
‘But your friend is also from the Gibson family. Won’t that be a problem?” Imogen asked,
“No. Oakley Gibson used to be a big shot in the underworld. My dad has wanted to bring him down for a long time but could never find solid evidence.”
Imogen finally calmed down a bit.
When they arrived at the hospital, Imogen and Jasper got out of the car. They stood by and watched as Nathan, carrying a fruit basket and gifts, strode toward the hospital. Mila was holding flowers, walking beside him.
Imogen was surprised at the sight. “When did they buy the gifts and flowers?”
Jasper held her hand and said, ‘When you care, there’s always a way.”
Imogen was slightly stunned. As she looked down at her hands, she felt warm and comfortable. She shyly looked into his eyes, and her heart raced.
Jasper said softly, “My dad is my role model. I want to be like him and make my wife always happy, carefree, and content.”
Imogen’s cheeks flushed, and her heart pounded.
They walk into the hospital hand in hand.
