Chapter 987: Chapter 987: Is Grace Right?
"Jack, I know you’re worried about me, I know I might be acting a bit rash, but I want to go home."
"Because I don’t like the hospital, I don’t like the environment there, and I don’t like those cold machines."
"I like bright colors, I like lively places, I know I’m sick and need to stay in the hospital, but I’d rather have you all by my side."
"We can visit you at the hospital after school," Jack looked up at Grace.
"But even if you come to see me at the hospital every day, how long can you stay with me?" Grace blinked.
"Plus, since I’m staying in the hospital, Dad and Mommy don’t have time for work anymore, Mommy has already spent a lot of time with me."
Speaking of which, Grace turned her head to look at Charlotte.
In fact, Charlotte’s phone had been flashing continuously during the time she had been accompanying Grace.
Charlotte gently touched her smooth long hair, a tinge of distress passing through her eyes.
"If Dad and Mommy go to work, I’ll be alone in the hospital, and that will make me lonely and sad."
A hint of grievance appeared on Grace’s cheeks.
"But..." Jack tried to say something but was interrupted by Grace.
"Jack, didn’t our great-grandma just say? We have doctors at home, it’s the same as being in the hospital, I can be treated at home if anything happens."
As Grace spoke, she fiddled with her fingers, counting,
"Plus, with great-grandma at home, I won’t be bored, and at night I can sleep with you all instead of being alone in the hospital bed."
At this point, Grace paused, then glanced roguishly at Jack, "Or is it that you’re sick of me and don’t want to share a room with me anymore."
"Who said that, no way!" Jack quickly spoke up in his defense.
"If that’s the case, why can’t I go home, where Dad and Mommy can work in peace, and I have great-grandma by my side, and get to see you in the evenings? If I stayed in the hospital, would that be possible?" Grace pouted.
"But, but..." Jack stammered for a while but couldn’t come up with a convincing reason.
"Mommy, do you think Grace is right?" Grace then turned her head to Charlotte.
Charlotte didn’t say a word but nodded.
If it weren’t for the comprehensive medical facilities at Stardust Garden and the doctors Jasmine Clarkson had brought in from abroad, Charlotte would never have dared to agree to Grace being discharged now.
Jack didn’t speak any further, just quietly stayed next to Grace.
The children and Charlotte took one car, while Justin Battleson and Jasmine Clarkson were in another.
Feeling the quiet in the car, Grace took the initiative to speak.
"I didn’t go to kindergarten today, what interesting things happened there? Can you guys tell me about it, please?"
Upon hearing Grace’s words, Hank immediately spoke up.
He even started recounting from the moment he stepped through the kindergarten doors that morning, not wanting Grace to miss the slightest detail.
The atmosphere in the car no longer felt as heavy as before, but the children all spoke softly, cautious not to startle Grace.
Grace listened carefully, but a hint of loss eventually appeared in her expression.
"What’s wrong, Grace?" Olivia immediately noticed Grace’s expression.
Upon her comment, the few children in the car became tense again.
Grace quickly shook her head.
"I just feel it’s a shame that for quite a while, I probably won’t be able to go to kindergarten."
