Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 716 What a Shame

After checking on Harold, the doctor smiled. "Mr. Harold is about to wake up. Try your best not to agitate him once he does. We don’t want to stimulate him and cause a second injury to his brain."

Joseph looked at Chloe beside him, figuring that she was impatient to know who had hurt Harold. She noticed his gaze and quickly said, "Don't worry. I want to know the truth, but I can wait. I'm worried about him as much as you are."

About half an hour after the doctor left, Harold slowly opened his eyes. After taking a moment to adjust to the lights, his eyes started to focus. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Joseph took a step forward. "Hey Grandpa, how are you feeling?"

Harold remained quiet. Having been in a coma for so long, he felt that his brain was foggy. Chloe was worried and called for the doctor. After the check-up, the doctor pronounced that Harold was fine and just had yet to fully recover.

"Mr. Joseph, you guys should get some rest. I'll watch over him."

Joseph had personally chosen this doctor, so he was not worried to leave Harold in his care. Besides, he would be of no help even if he stayed.

"All right." He then looked at Chloe. "You should get some sleep too."

Chloe wanted to refuse him but he grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the room.

"Mr. Joseph, please mind yourself. I'm engaged." Chloe shoved his hand away as she solemnly warned him.

Joseph's eyes turned cold. "Really? No one's here to see anything."

“That doesn't give you the right to do it."

"Fine, I won't tell Noah. Go to bed. Now."

Chloe was struck speechless. Why was he saying it like she had done something shameless with him?

Joseph gave her the bedroom next to Jasper's. Finding everything familiar yet not, she had a restless night. In the morning, a knock on her door woke her. She climbed out of bed and opened the door.

Jasper was standing outside, staring at her excitedly. "Greatpapi is awake. He wants to see you."

Chloe’s head cleared. She threw on a coat and went with Jasper to Harold’s room. Other than the doctor, Joseph and Patrick were also there. When Harold saw Chloe, he smiled and waved at her just like always. His voice sounded hoarse since he had not spoken for a long time.

"Chloe my dear, come. Sit here."

Chloe's eyes turned red as she smiled. "Yes, Grandpa."

The doctor sensibly took his leave. But before that, he wanted to go over a list of precautions with Joseph. When they exited the room, Harold turned to Chloe.

"I know that you two are divorced. While I was in the coma, I could occasionally hear you guys talk. Joseph lacked parental love, so he never learned what love was. Though the methods he employed hurt you, I promise that he was only ever sincere toward you. But it's too late to say all that now. My family has wronged you."

"Grandpa, please stop. Regardless, you'll always be my irreplaceable family."

Harold sighed and turned to look at Jasper. He felt a little upset. "This kid..."

The child was sensible and obedient. What a shame…

Chloe did not notice the undertone in his voice. "Jasper is a good child. He thought about you a lot and frequently visited you at the hospital."
