Chapter 214: Do You Have To Marry Gretchen?

Hearing this, Gary boiled with rage. He grabbed his crutch and threw it at Cristofer with all his strength. “Bastard! You are a total bastard!” Cristofer stood his ground without flinching, remaining silent. Without hesitation, the crutch struck him directly on the forehead, instantly causing his forehead to turn red and swell. Seeing Gary turn paler and frown in pain, Luke immediately shouts for help, “Dr. Smith! Dr. Smith, come here quickly!” The next moment, Dr. Smith, in the doctor’s overall, rushed into the room with several of his assistants. After checking up on Gary, he said with a darkened face, “I’ve told you that he can’t be irritated anymore. Why did you... Uncle Luke, call an ambulance. We must send Old Mr. Hans to the hospital for further treatment now.” “Okay, okay...” “It will be a long time before the ambulance comes. We can’t wait till then,” Estelle said as she stopped Luke and turned to Cristofer. “Drive Grandpa to the hospital now.” Cristofer nodded and then rushed out to get the car ready. “Dr. Smith, please go to the hospital with Grandpa and tell the doctor about his condition to save time for examination.” “Okay!” “Uncle Luke, I will send Grandpa to the hospital with Dr. Smith first. Please pack up some daily necessities for Grandpa and then send them to the hospital later.” “Okay, Estelle.” Estelle then helped Gary out of the house with Dr. Smith and his assistants. On the way to the hospital, everyone was silent. Soon, they arrived at the hospital, and Gary was taken to the emergency room. Dr. Smith talked to the doctor about Gary’s condition while Cristofer and Estelle waited helplessly outside the emergency room. Leaning against the wall, Cristofer closed his eyes with a weary look and said to Estelle, “Thank youMaterial © NôvelDrama.Org.

for helping me today.” “Do you have to marry Gretchen?” Estelle asked. “Yes.” “Do you love her so much?” “I... I must marry her,” Cirris didn’t give her the answer she wanted. He said this sentence many times today. Then he opened his eyes and turned to gaze at Estelle with pleading eyes. “I know what you are going to say,” Estelle said. “But I’m under no obligation to help you anymore. Cristofer, I have done all that I can for you.” After saying that, Estelle left. Now that Gary had been brought to the hospital, the doctors would save him, and the nurses would take good care of him. Besides, Cristofer would handle everything, so she did not need to stay here. Estelle wasn’t distant and unfeeling. She recognized that Gary treated her well, and she planned to bring the children to see him often in the coming days. Estelle simply believed it was best to avoid seeing Gary for now, as he would try to convince her to reconcile with Cristofer. Estelle and Cristofer had already gone through a divorce, and it was not feasible for them to rekindle their relationship. Estelle understood that Cristofer desired her to pretend that their divorce never happened when around Gary. However, she had no intention of deceiving Gary, so she declined Cristofer's request and left. ***** As soon as Estelle left the hospital, a message from Mr. Mysterious came. ‘Don’t feel sad or guilty. It’s not your fault.’ Upon reading the message, Estelle felt a comforting warmth in her heart. Mr. Mysterious had a remarkable ability to console her during times of sadness. Then she replied, ‘I’m not. I just feel a little sorry for Grandpa Gary. He is a good man and treats me well. But unfortunately, I can’t fulfill his wish.’

‘Actually... As long as you want, you can still be his granddaughter-in-law. After all, I’m also Gary’s grandson.’ ‘Sir, are you proposing to me?’ ‘Estelle, a long-lasting marriage can’t be maintained only with the marriage certificate. What I want is to be with you forever.’ Then Estelle thought, ‘Mr. Mysterious is right. Sometimes, the marriage certificate is meaningless for two people that don’t love each other, such as Cristofer and I. We got the marriage certificate, but our marriage still ended in divorce. The most important thing to maintain a marriage is not the marriage certificate but love.’ ‘Sir, how are things going with you?’ Estelle texted him back. ‘It’s in progress. Estelle, what are you going to do next?’ Estelle took a deep breath and typed. ‘I want to take back the Hudson Group.’ ‘Okay.’ ‘Sir, I want to get it back alone.’ ‘You don’t need my help?’ ‘York pocketed the fruits of my father’s painstaking efforts. I want to get them back on my own.’ ‘I see.’ ‘Sir, will you go home for dinner tonight?’ ‘No. Sorry, Estelle. I’ll be busy and won’t go home in the following days. Take care of yourself.’ ‘Are you solving the tricky problem you mentioned before?’ ‘Yeah.’ ‘Okay, I see. Don’t worry. I can take good care of myself and the kids.’ After reading the message from Estelle, Cristofer put his phone back into his pocket. At this time, the nurse came over and asked, “Old Mr. Hans is not in good condition and needs to be attended to at night. Have you hired a care worker?” Cristofer stood up and said, “I’ll stay here and take care of him.” “Okay. Please come with me to go through the relevant formalities.” ****

It was a lovely day when Estelle went back to the Hudson’s House. And the sun was shining bright in the clear blue sky. Mr. Mysterious had been busy recently. Therefore, the two of them hadn’t seen each other for a few days, and they contacted each other by text messages. After knowing that Estelle wanted to return to the Hudson’s House, Mr. Mysterious asked Ron to drive Estelle there. “Miss Hudson, Mr. Mysterious instructed me to tell you that no matter what happens, your priority is to protect yourself,” Ron said after stopping the car. Estelle nodded and inquired, “Do you know when Mr. Mysterious will return home?” “I... I’m not sure.” “Please ask him to text me when he returns home,” Estelle requested. “Okay.” It was eight o’clock in the morning, and the villa was silent. Gretchen, who woke up in drowsiness, vaguely saw someone sitting on the edge of her bed. The next moment, a basin of cold water was poured on her body, and she screamed. “Ah!!!” Gretchen was shocked when she saw the person in front of her. “Estelle? Why are you here? How did you come in? How dare the servant let you in without my permission?!” She snapped in anger while spitting out the water from her mouth. Her hair and upper body were wet at the moment, making her look like a soaked rat.
