Chapter 64 Donation of the Kidney
“Okay, we will go back to see you when we are free.” Damon paused and agreed.
After a few words of persuasion, he hung up the phone.
Putting away the phone, Damon looked at Adele and asked, “Grandma asked us to come over in the afternoon. Do you want to go with me?”
“Sure,” Adele nodded without hesitation.
She knew very well that Grandmother was good to her. Since she had nothing to do in the afternoon, she might as well go and see her.
After lunch, they packed up briefly and went straight to the grand house.
When the car arrived at the gate of the house, Adele saw that Old Madame was supported by someone and waved at them.
Adele felt warm in her heart and immediately stepped forward.
“How is it? Are you feeling better?” Old Madame asked.
“My fever has gone down. I’ll be fine after taking medicine for a few days!” Adele smiled.
Hearing this, Old Madame nodded with a smile and pulled her into the living room.
Damon walked behind them, his expression unconsciously slowing down a lot.
“Adele, this time, I specially asked the servants to pick a few boxes of tonics. The old ginseng and the cubilose are suitable for you. When you go back, let Mary stew it for you.”
Adele had just sat down on the sofa when she heard Old Madame say this. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Grandma, I don’t need them. You can keep those tonics for yourself. I am young and healthy. I don’t need those!”
“You can’t say that. Women always need to take some supplements. It helps with fertility!”
Adele was stunned. Seeing the meaningful smile on Old Madame’s face, she understood what she meant.
Old Madame reached out to hold Adele’s hand and chuckled, “What are you being shy about? Women have to go through this. You and Damon had better let me have a grandson soon!”
When Adele heard this, she subconsciously looked up at Damon who was sitting opposite her. Her cheeks were burning, all the way to her ears.
Noticing her gaze, Old Madame turned to look at Damon and pretended to be serious, “Damon, did you hear what I just said? Let me have a grandson as soon as possible!”
Damon frowned, but in the end, he smiled and agreed, “Grandma, don’t worry.”
Hearing him agree, Old Madame laughed and held Adele’s hand tightly. “Adele, our old Yusuf family’s heritage will depend on you.”
Looking at the expectant eyes of the old man, Adele nodded shyly.
They chatted with Old Madame for a long time. Seeing that it was getting late, Old Madame ordered the servants to bring a pile of tonic gift boxes and stuffed them into the trunk of the car. Only then was she willing to let them go.
Adele sat in the car, and she was thinking about Old Madame’s instructions for them to have babies.
The car drove on. After driving for a long time, Damon saw that the woman next to him did not say a word and was just staring blankly. He could not help but clear his throat. “What are you thinking about?”
“No… nothing?” Adele snapped back to her senses and blushed.
Damon looked at her flushed cheeks and lifted his lips. “Don’t take Grandma’s words too seriously. I won’t force you.”
Although he didn’t say it, Adele could tell what he was referring to. Naturally, it was about having a child.
Adele bit her lips and tightened her grip on her hand. She gathered her courage and said, “Actually, I am willing.”
Since she was the Yusuf family’s daughter-in-law, it was natural that she would have the duty to carry on the family line.
Damon tightened his grip on the steering wheel and his expression suddenly became serious. He did not reply for a long time.
Adele did not notice Damon’s abnormality. Out of shyness, she did not continue this topic.
A moment later, Damon’s phone rang. Adele glanced at it and saw that the caller ID on the display screen was a P.
Damon glanced at it, raised his hand, and hung up.
“Why didn’t you answer the phone?” asked Adele, puzzled.
“It’s about business. I will answer it later,” said Damon in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Adele nodded and didn’t take it to heart.
After returning to the courtyard, Damon got out of the car and asked Mary to take the tonics away. He stood in the courtyard, picked up his phone, and made a call.
“What’s wrong?”
“Mr. Yusuf, our team is ready. As long as Miss Moore is in good condition, we can operate at any time. The information of the kidney donor needs to be confirmed as soon as possible in case of accidents.”
Hearing this, Damon tightened his grip on the phone. After a few seconds, he said, “Okay, I will keep you informed.”
“Okay.”
Damon hung up the phone. His heart felt like it was suddenly weighed down by a huge rock, and he felt a little depressed.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
He stepped into the door and saw that Mary and Adele were busy putting away the gift boxes.
It was unknown what Mary had said, and Adele smiled with a blush, looking shy and cute.
Looking at her from afar, Damon felt even more conflicted.
Back then, when he went on a blind date with her and married her, he had always had ulterior motives. Although he knew that he would have to tell her the truth sooner or later, he could not say anything when facing her like this.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Adele could not help but ask when she saw Damon standing at the door for a long time.
“I have something to tell you.” Damon frowned and said softly.
Adele tilted her head and smiled sweetly at him.
Looking at the woman in front of him who was smiling sincerely, Damon’s lips moved, but he did not know how to speak.
Seeing that the man did not speak for a while and his expression became uglier, Adele frowned and asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
As she spoke, she naturally reached out and touched his forehead. As she tested the temperature, she muttered, “Don’t tell me you also caught a cold?”
Damon’s forehead felt hot. He subconsciously reached out and grabbed her hand.
“What… what happened?” Adele was shocked.
“It’s fine,” Damon said softly after a moment of silence.
Adele felt a little strange and did not ask any further. Thinking of what he had just said, she asked softly, “What did you want to tell me?”
“It’s nothing. It’s just that in a few days, it will be the company’s anniversary. The executives have decided to give everyone two days off and go out for team building.”
As soon as the anniversary was mentioned, Adele thought of the scene of the company’s team building two years ago. Climbing the mountain was not fun, and it was tiring to the point that her waist and legs hurt.
“Don’t tell me we will be climbing a mountain again?” Adele muttered.
“No, we’re going to the Shore Manor in the suburbs.”
“Shore Manor?” Hearing this, Adele immediately became interested. She was a little excited and subconsciously reached out to hold Damon’s arm. “Will you go with us?”
