Chapter 450 Except With Darker Skin
A look of sorrow filled Tim’s eyes when he saw the contact details in the advertisement. The more he compared himself to the boy in the picture, the more intense his feelings of sadness and hatred became.
Mary felt her heart ache when she came out of the clinic and saw him sitting there all by himself. “Tim!” she called out to him affectionately. Tim looked up and ran over to hold her steady when he saw her.
“Are you okay, Grandma?” he asked worriedly. “I’m fine. It was just an examination,” Mary reassured him while patting him on the head.
“You have to take good care of yourself and get better, Grandma. Don’t worry about the money. I’ll work really hard to pay for your treatment,” Tim said decisively. Grandma is all I have now…
Mary felt really upset too as she knew Tim needed her very much and would be all alone without her. “All right, I’ll definitely get better,” Mary replied with tears in her eyes.
Tim still needs me, so I have to stay strong! As neither of them was able to understand the medical report for the examination, they decided to consult a doctor about it.
“Wait for me outside, Tim. I’ll go ask the doctor about this myself.” Mary didn’t want him to go in with her as she didn’t want him to worry about her.
However, Tim was smart enough to see through her intentions and replied sternly, “I think I should go with you, Grandma. You might not be able to remember the doctor’s instructions. I have an excellent memory, so you’ll definitely need me!”
He then waited for the patient to come out before asking the doctor, “Doctor, the medical report for my grandma’s examination is out. Could you help take a look at it?”
“Sure thing! Come on in,” the doctor replied with a friendly wave as he remembered Tim really well.
“Let’s go, Grandma,” Tim said as he led Mary into the consultation room.
Benjamin had his bodyguards surround the hospital the moment they arrived.
Ethen then accessed the surveillance cameras and located Tim fairly quickly.
“They’re in a consultation room on the third floor, Mr. Graham!”
“Let’s go!”
Feeling excited to finally see his child, Benjamin ran toward the elevator while Ethen followed closely behind.
The people in the hospital all had puzzled looks on their faces when they saw Benjamin pass by with a huge group of men.
Fearing that he would end up scaring the child, Benjamin paused when he arrived outside the consultation room and asked Ethen, “Should I go in like this?”
Ethen nearly burst out laughing at how nervous Benjamin looked, but he managed to hold it in and said, “Maybe I should go inside instead, Mr. Graham.”
Benjamin shot him a cold glare, but waved at him and said, “All right, make it quick!”
Ethen took a moment to adjust his attire and put on a smile before knocking on the door.
“Come in!”
“Please pardon my intrusion,” Ethen mumbled as he opened the door and scanned the consultation room, only to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Tim inside.
Not wanting to scare Tim, Ethen told the doctor to carry on with the consultation.
“What’s the matter? Where’s the child?” Benjamin asked with a frown when he saw Ethen come out of the room by himself.
“I think we should wait a little while longer, Mr. Graham. We might frighten the child if we just take him away like this,” Ethen explained.
Benjamin’s eyes lit up instantly. “He really is inside?”
“Yes, sir. He really looks a lot like your other sons, except with darker skin!” Ethen replied with an excited smile.
He made sure not to mention how skinny Tim looked as he didn’t want to make Benjamin worry.
