Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 407 Big Baby

Nicole recalled what she told Benedict before when she left.

Benedict had had a craniotomy. On top of that, his body would recover slower due to his old age. That was why it was only expected that she had him stay in bed and rest. “You look like you have healed considerably, Grandpa. I will take you out tomorrow and have a stroll in the yard.”

Nicole then checked Benedict’s wound. As the people in the family had taken good care of him the past few days, his wound was almost completely healed. It should be alright for him to walk around for a bit with her supporting him.

His eyes instantly lit up upon hearing that he could go out for some fresh air. With a nod, he huffed,

“See! I tell those punks that I am fine, but they don’t listen!”

“Don’t get too worked up, Grandpa.” Nicole chuckled. “You have to take care of your body. You can even go out for a jog once you regain your health.”

Benedict hummed in reply, and he added again after giving it some thought, “Right, I want to go out. It feels like it has been so long since I went shopping. What do you think, Nicole? Can I go?”

She saw the look of anticipation in his eyes as he spoke. He looked exactly the same as Hayden when the boy wanted candy back when he was a child.
