Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy
Chapter 1604

Joseph did not follow them. Although he really wanted to stay by Alvina's side, it was related to the matters of the Miller Family's family, so even though he and Alvina were engaged, they had not yet officially married. If he followed over now, it would cause the Miller Family to be unhappy, so he waited in the resting room for news.

Once she entered the doctor's office, Alvina asked anxiously: "Doctor, how is my grandfather?"

"He has a very serious heart problem, and his cirrhosis is very severe. Do you know about it?" the doctor asked, looking over their faces.

"I know, how is my father now?" Paul immediately asked.

Alvina stood there in a daze as if she had been whipped. Hearing the doctor's words, she immediately felt as if the sky was spinning. How could her grandfather be so sick?

They only said that her grandfather had a small ailment, as long as he took the medicine on time he would be fine. At that time, Alvina believed it and felt that whatever the doctor said was definitely true. He would not joke around with her grandfather's illness.

Now it seemed that the doctors had lied to her, and her grandfather had kept it a secret.

"We can't operate right now. His condition can't take the risk of surgery. He can be hospitalized, but we might not be able to treat him further." The doctor pushed his glasses and spoke with a troubled expression. Saving someone was their duty, but not all illnesses could be cured. Sometimes, they were also very weak and moved.

Alvina felt her legs go weak, he almost couldn't stand up but only lean towards the wall behind him.

Nathan asked: "Then how many days does my father have left?"

"Half a year at most, or in a month." The doctor spoke sadly.

When Alvina heard this, her tears overflowed.

Paul turned his head to look at her, and comforted her, "Alvina, don't cry anymore. Grandfather's condition has reached this stage, and we are also very sad.

Alvina couldn't believe it, she didn't even dare to think as she turned and ran out.

Paul looked at Nathan: "Look at what you've done, Daddy is really going to die from your anger."

"Stop pushing the blame onto me. Don't you have enough to anger him with?" Nathan retorted him a few more times, unwilling to be outdone.

After Alvina ran out, she saw Joseph standing at the entrance of the resting room waiting for her. She actually wanted to replace a place to cry.

Seeing she crying like this, Joseph's heart trembled, he had already guessed the result.

Old Master Miller was a strong person throughout his life. In the end, even his own illness was hidden from the people around him.

"Are you okay?" Joseph slowly walked to the front of her with his tall body and asked gently. Alvina bit her lower lip and shook her head vigorously.

"let's replace a peaceful room." When Joseph saw how she was trying so hard to endure it, his heart ached. He gently grabbed her wrist and brought her into the resting room. "What did the doctor say?" the man asked gently.

"He said... He said that my grandfather can't be cured, and only has little time left. Alvina choked with sobs, she could not even speak, only tears silently fell and it hurt Joseph. Joseph immediately pulled her into his embrace, and gently caressed her back with both hands. His long hair soothed her sorrowful feelings soundlessly and firmly.

Alvina leaned into his embrace, and finally cried out loud. She was like a helpless child, without a care.

After crying for such a long time, until there was a knock on the door, Joseph finally took out a tissue to wipe away the tears on her face: "Maybe your grandfather wants to see you." After Alvina heard this, she quickly stopped her grief and opened the door.

Warren stood outside the door and said: "Miss Alvina, your grandfather asked you go there.

Alvina nodded his head: "Thank you, I will be there right away."

"Sir, the old man invites you along as well." Warren saw Joseph standing at the back, and said softly.

Joseph walked out and headed in the direction of the sickroom with Alvina. On the way, there were many patients and medical personnel, who were all very surprised to see Joseph here so late at night. But even though Joseph appeared to be an honorable person, he still had personal matters to settle. Other than looking at him a few more times, he also needed to replace an opportunity to go up and greet him. When Joseph and Alvina walked to the outside of the sickroom, Paul and Nathan were standing outside of the door, and had actually not been able to enter.

Seeing Alvina and Joseph coming over together, their expressions became a little stiff.

It had to be said that the two Miller Family brothers were quite afraid of Joseph. Alvina was very much in the old man's favor, and Joseph was his beloved grandson-in-law. If the old man gave all his wealth to Alvina, wouldn't Alvina become the biggest shareholder of the company? Both of them would have to step down and work for her.

Joseph's gaze coldly swept over the two Miller Family brothers and the two of them received Joseph's cold gaze. Both of them trembled and felt fear in the bottom of their hearts.

Alvina pushed the door to the sickroom and saw grandfather lying on the bed. There were a few instruments by his side, and there was an oxygen tube in his nose.

"Alvina, Joseph, come here." The old tutor didn't seem to be sad at all about his illness. He immediately waved his hand when he saw them.

"Grandfather, do you feel better right now?" Alvina couldn't control her tears and walked quickly to his side, squatting in front of his sickbed as she asked in a low voice. "Alvina, don't cry. Life and death are a common occurrence, we should learn to take it." Old Master Miller immediately smiled and comforted her.

"No, I don't want to. I want Grandfather to be always by my side." Alvina was like a willful child as she shook his head, tears fell like rain.

Old Master Miller sighed: "So do I. But there are a lot of things that will depend on fate, no matter how close our relationship is, there will be a day where we will part. I am very consoled that before I leave, Grandfather will be able to replace a man I can rely on for you."

Joseph stood at the side, when hearing these words, his expression trembled slightly. He immediately took a step forward and comforted the old man: "Grandfather, don't worry, I will take care of Alvina and thank you for your help. You should have a rest. Alvina and I will wait for you to recover and leave the hospital."

The Old Master Miller was really satisfied with Joseph. He felt that he had a sense of propriety, order, and status. He treated his granddaughter well, and was able to lead his precious granddaughter, so that she wouldn't feel confused and helpless.

"Joseph, can you do me a favor to investigate Alvina's matter? Originally, I wanted to investigate it by myself, but now that I'm ill, I'm afraid I'm powerless. Please investigate it for me and don't let the rest people misunderstand it." The Old Master Miller still felt quite pained. It was the most sorrowful thing in the world for family members to fight each other.

"I will. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. I won't let anyone misunderstand her. Grandpa, don't worry." Even if the old man didn't ask for it, Joseph would definitely investigate it thoroughly. "Alvina, Grandpa wrote a will. In the hands of my lawyer, you have to prevent your two uncles from interfering. The one that belongs to you is a gift from Grandpa. Old Master Miller looked at Alvina gently, his cloudy eyes revealed a smile.

Alvina was so sad that he couldn't even talk.

"Joseph, keep an eye on this for me. Don't get into trouble." The old man knew that Alvina didn't care about the Miller Family's money, but what should belong to her should belong to her.

"Alright, Grandpa, don't worry." Joseph responded with all his heart.

"Alvina, you go back first. I'll get someone to call Rain over. I still need to talk to your two uncles." The old man immediately said softly.

"Grandfather, let me take care of you. I don't want to go back home." Alvina couldn't bear to leave at this time. She felt that she had to stay here every second.

"Foolish child, of course grandfather knows what you are thinking, but you are not a child now, you can be considered as someone with a family now, so you should accompany Joseph back. Grandpa had the Rain come over. He can take care of me more easily, if there's anything, I will call you." The old man understood what she meant, but he still decided to let her go. He didn't want her to continue crying.

Even though Alvina didn't want to, what her grandfather said made sense. She was clumsy and wasn't able to help, so she could only say: "Then I'll come and see you tomorrow."

When Alvina and Joseph left, the expressions of the Nathan brothers tensed up again.
