Christina was in a mall buying a computer.

Before getting one, she received an urgent call.

Then she rushed to the airport, took a short flight, and went to the central hospital in C city.

She hadn't contacted anyone from the Dickens family for a long time.

Last Christmas, she didn't even call to greet them.

Everyone had their own lives and had long been used to cutting off contact.

But when Christina heard that her father was suddenly seriously ill, her heart sank.

"How...How is he?"

When Christina arrived at the hospital, it was already 11 pm and the inpatient facility was quiet.

When she came to the ward, she saw her grandmother, Mrs.Dickens, talking to the director of the hospital.

Mrs.Dickens's eyes reddened when she saw Christina coming.She grabbed Christina's arm and asked, "Where's Patrick? Why didn't the people from Hopkins family come?"

She really didn't know what to say.

Her grandmother was still so stubborn and snobbish.

"Did you really divorce him? You are so stupid! You really should have asked him for compensation when you lost your child.Now your father is ill, what do you think we should do? Who can we ask for help..." Mrs.Dickens cried as she spoke.

Christina usually liked to talk back to them, but it was rare for her grandmother to be so flustered.

Her grandmother and her father came from a poor family.

Perhaps this also made them more infatuated with power and money.

She used to hate their lifestyle, but now that she had gone through so many things, she felt that it was not easy for them, especially since her grandmother was so old.

People really changed a lot when they grew up.

"Grandma, sit here.I'll talk to the doctor." Christina couldn't pretend to be friendly.She lowered her voice and helped Mrs.Dickens sit on a chair beside her.

Then she went into the doctor's office with the director to talk about it in detail.

"Your father was going to work this morning.Suddenly, his car hit a guardrail on the side, and then passers-by called the police and sent him to the hospital for emergency treatment.He is out of danger now..."

The doctor gave her a rough idea of the incident.
