Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18

Surprise Guest

“Granny! How are you?” I asked, trying to sound cheerful as I waltzed into her hospital room.

The room was as white and simple as ever. The hospital room was filled with advanced medical

equipment and machines that were designed to keep my granny alive.

“I’m doing well. Have you been busy?” Granny asked, probably referring to the fact that I didn’t drop by

before.

“A little. A couple of things happened…and I just got tied up…” I replied vaguely.

Sensing that I didn’t want to talk about it any further, my grandmother did not continue asking. Instead,

she started talking about small random things that she knew would cheer me up. I truly appreciate her

for everything that she’s done for me.

“How’s the painting going?” Granny asked before she smiled beautifully at me.

She had been receiving treatment for only around a week, but she seemed to be doing well. I smiled

back at her as I observed her glowing face. I prayed and hoped that she would be cured and that she

would be able to leave the hospital soon. Even if not permanently, it would be good enough for me if

she could at least go out sometimes. I’m sure that she was bored out of her mind being stuck in this

room all the time.

“It’s going well. I’m actually here to show you the rough sketch,” I said enthusiastically.

I began removing the canvas from the protective bag to show it to her. My grandmother took the

canvas in her two hands as she stared at the rough pencil sketch on it.

“This looks much better that I had imagined…” Granny said thoughtfully.

“What does that mean? Don’t underestimate your own granddaughter. Actually, I based this sketch on

a photograph of us that we took together a while back,” I said.

“So, how can I help you today, young lady?” Granny asked.

She handed the canvas back to me and I smiled at her.

“I’m planning to base the facial expression on the real you now. So, I guess all I need you to do is put

on your best smile for me,” I replied as I sat down in a chair next to her hospital bed.

“That’s easy enough,” grandma replied before smiling widely at me.

I couldn’t stop myself from laughing at her and soon we were laughing together. In that moment, I

honestly forgot about all my troubles and everything that was going on in my life. I just wanted to focus

and live in that moment, at least while it lasted.

We were busy having a great time enjoying each other’s company when the door to the room burst

opened. I had a bad feeling that it wasn’t the doctor or the nurse that just stepped in through the door.

“Ha…Hayden…Why are you here?” I asked in confusion and panic.

My eyes were like round saucers at my shock of seeing Hayden walking into the room. He was dressed

in a very smart looking white suit with a black shirt and matching black leather shoes. Overall, he

seemed too smartly dressed and fashionable to be on a casual hospital visit. So, why is he here…

exactly?

“What? My father is paying for this room and you’re telling me that I can’t be here?” Hayden replied

without a care as he made himself comfortable on the sofa.

I glanced over at my grandmother who was also shocked at Hayden’s sudden appearance. I wondered

if she even remembered who he is. After all, she’s probably seen him only once on that day at the

church where we failed to get married. Hayden was also dead drunk on that day which added to my

guess that she probably didn’t remember him.

“…That’s not..what I meant…” I said before I sighed.

Why is he here? I don’t even want to see him. He’s made my life messy enough already and now he’s

intruding on my grandmother’s hospital room where she’s supposed to be recovering.

While I was thinking of how to handle him, Hayden had gotten up from the sofa as if he had just

remembered something. I watched as he walked over to my grandmother’s hospital bed. Instinctively, I

stepped in between my grandmother and him with my arms wide open to guard my grandmother.

“Why are you really here?” I asked, suspiciously. My eyes narrowed at him.

“Don’t worry your little head. I’m not going to hurt your grandmother. Do you think I’m some kind of

monster?” Hayden said in disbelief before he laughed a little.

Yes, I did think that he was a monster.

Hayden folded my arms to my side before he walked past me towards my grandmother.

“My name is Hayden and I’m currently dating your granddaughter. I heard that you were in this hospital

from my father and decided to drop by to see how you are doing. I am sincerely sorry that I did not

inform you beforehand,” Hayden said smoothly before smiling his most angelic smile at my

grandmother.

I hated how well his smiled seemed to enchant her. My grandmother looked up at him with such glassy Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

eyes as if she had just seen a real angel.

Wait?! I’m missing the real problem here…

“No, grandma. We are not dating…” I said firmly.

“Really? But yesterday we already…” Hayden said with innocent wonder.

“We had dinner. Yesterday, Hayden and I…had dinner,” I quickly jumped in before he could complete

his sentence.

Is he crazy?! Was he honestly about to tell my grandmother that he and I had sex yesterday?!

Hayden chuckled amusedly while my grandmother looked at us with a confused look on her face. This

is so bad; he’s going to cause so much misunderstanding between grandmother and me. Plus, as far

as my grandmother was concerned, I’m still dating Ethan!

He smiled at me as he turned around to face me once more. I could hear his soft laughter when he was

about to walk past me.

“I didn’t know that you were the type of girl who would sleep with a man that she’s not even dating…”

Hayden whispered into my ear before he walked past me casually as if nothing had happened.
