Perfect CEO

Chapter 108

Patrick immediately glanced at Felicia after Hector's worrying reaction. Why did he faint after I brought over his desired granddaughter-in-law?

He and Felicia rushed over to check on Hector.

Frightened, Felicia muttered, “Old Mr. Lowen, Old Mr. Lowen. Are you okay?”

I'm supposed to win him over. Why is the old man reacting like this?

Patrick hovered on the side while a doctor tried to resuscitate Hector. “How is my grandfather?” he asked anxiously.

The doctor heaved a sigh of relief after completing his examination. “He'll be okay, Mr. Lowen. Old Mr. Lowen's breathing stuttered because he was agitated. He should recover in no time.”

Upon hearing the report, Alice wiped her tears, worried to death over Hector's condition.

Why is he so agitated after seeing the eldest Ms. Ashton? I don't know what he sees in Felicia at all, but what can I do? Hector's weak, and whoever he wants Patrick to marry, Patrick will bow to his every whim. I can't object to anything if I want him to stay happy and alive.

Meanwhile, Patrick took his grandfather's fainting episode as a sign of the latter's excitement at seeing Felicia, and his expression cooled.

It seems I have to proceed with this fake marriage.

Hector eventually opened his eyes. When he saw Felicia, his eyes rolled into his head again.

Everyone panicked and yelled, “Hector!”

“Grandpa!”

“Old Mr. Lowen!”

Alice coaxed, “Hector, your eldest grandson is home. And look, he brought his girlfriend home to see you. Don't be so agitated!”

Hector glanced at Alice after hearing her words. He pointed at his room and closed his eyes.

Much to their disbelief, Hector was merely tired and wished to rest. Instead of meeting the woman he had wanted Patrick to marry, Hector chose to retreat to his room.

Alice summoned the housekeeper and instructed, “Send Hector back to his room to rest.”

She thought it best for Hector to avoid Felicia for the time being, lest he became agitated and developed conditions far worse than fainting.

Under the housekeeper and the doctor's accompaniment, Hector returned to his room. Alice dried her tears as Patrick sat beside her, draping his arm around her comfortingly.

“Grandma, the doctor said Grandpa's vitals are normal. He'll be okay soon,” he said gently.

He knew his grandparents had a loving and lasting relationship, and neither could bear the anguish of losing their spouse.

Nodding, Alice replied, “I know. He'll live to be a hundred years old.”

Felicia stood aside, a box of ginseng dangling awkwardly from her arm. She was disappointed, as she had missed her chance to talk to Hector.

Noticing Alice's grief, Felicia gingerly sat beside the old woman and offered, “I bought some skincare products for you, Old Mrs. Lowen. They're suitable for your age group.”
