Chapter 597


    After a while, Romeo''s phone started to ring.


    Arabe knocked on the bathroom door, "Your phone has been ringing off the hook; want me to grab it


    for you?"


    Probably some urgent matter from the group. Otherwise, they wouldn''t be buzzing him like crazy.


    "Just answer it for me," Romeo replied from the bathroom.


    "Me?"


    Was that appropriate?


    "If it''s work-rted, tell them to contact Carl. If it''s personal, you make the call."


    Arabe picked up his phone and saw it was Grandpa Phillip calling.


    "Grandpa Phillip, it''s Arabe." Arabe looked towards the bathroom, wanting to exin that Romeo


    was in the shower but worried about any misunderstanding.


    To her surprise, Phillip McMillian jumped the gun, excitedly saying, "You''re with Romeo? Be, has


    your activities been tough? Are you tired? Has President Barton been treating you well? Has anyone


    been giving you a hard time at school?"


    Arabe smiled and said, "I''m doing great."


    "If anyone gives you a hard time, you have to tell me, and I''ll sort it out! How''s the environment at


    school? Do you like the food? Do you need anything? I can personally deliver it to you!"


    "No need, everything''s great." Arabe didn''t expect Grandpa Phillip to be so caring, and it warmed her


    heart.


    "That''s good, as long as no one''s giving you a hard time." Phillip said, relieved, "What''s Romeo up to?


    I''ve called him many times, but he hasn''t picked up."


    "He." Arabe nced at the bathroom again, "He''s on the throne."


    "Oh, he''s on the throne, that exins it."


    "Do you have any urgent matters?"


    "Great news! Your grandma!" Phillip''s voice was very excited, "She woke up a few times before, but


    each time was very short. I would call her, and she would respond, but not like today! Today was truly a


    surprise!"


    Phillip, thrilled, quickly ryed the situation to Arabe, "I called her by her nickname, she answered


    me, and even called me by my nickname. She said she was thirsty. I gave her water, and then she


    asked me what day it was, how long she had been asleep!"


    Even though she had woken up a few times before, she had never initiated a conversation with him.


    She was just slightly conscious!


    What happened today was unbelievable to Phillip! He was over the moon!


    "She even asked me where Romeo was, and I told her she had been asleep for a long time and that


    Romeo had found his love. I gave that girl the ne, and she said she wanted to meet you guys.


    When can you guyse to visit?"


    "Is she still awake now?" Arabe asked softly.


    "She''s asleep now, but I feel like she''s been waking up more and more oftentely and for longer


    periods of time. Although she still can''t get out of bed and needs to be fed, just like a child. She can


    already have simple conversations with me."


    This was enough to drive Phillip into ecstasy!


    She was conscious, able tomunicate, and even remember people, something Phillip hadn''t even


    dared to dream about.


    Arabe smiled and said, "As long as she takes her medication, she''ll get even better. After some time,


    you can slowly help her walk or let her use a cane, and then she''ll be able to walk on her own."


    Suddenly, Phillip covered his face, starting to cry from excitement.


    Through the phone, Arabe could hear him trying to hold back his tears, and she couldn''t help but say,


    "Grandpa Phillip."


    "If it weren''t for you, I couldn''t even imagine this day, not even in my dreams." Phillip began to cry from


    happiness. After a while he said, "Good girl, thank you. I''m so lucky to have you; you''ve saved me and


    my wife many times. The McMillian family owes you so much."


    "Grandpa Phillip, don''t say that. I''m happy that I could help."


    That''s what she''s supposed to do.


    "You''re the only girl in my life that I approve of! Only you can be my grandson''s wife, and no one can


    rece you! If Romeo dares to do anything to hurt you, I''ll break his legs right away! The McMillian


    family is so lucky to have a smart and beautiful girl like you."


    Phillip''s voice was still choked with tears.


    Arabe couldn''t help butugh, "Wipe your tears first. We''lle over in a bit."


    "Great, that''s great." Phillip quickly wiped his tears, his voice filled with happiness.


    At that moment, Romeo, who had finished his shower, hugged her from behind, "Was that my grandpa


    on the phone?"


    He had heard thetter part of the conversation, so he guessed the person on the other end of the


    phone was his grandpa.


    "Yes, your grandma woke up. We''re going to visit her in a bit, okay?"


    "Okay."


    "Do you want to say a few words to your grandpa?" Arabe handed him the phone.


    But Romeo''s arms were still firmly wrapped around Arabe. He lowered his head and smelled her


    scent, "No need, hang up."


    They were going to go over there anyway. Anything that needed to be said could wait.


    Phillip, who was still crying, was a bit angry when he heard his grandson''s words. This ungrateful brat,


    forgetting his grandpa as soon as he had a fiancée, not even wanting to take a call! Humph!


    He didn''t want to talk to this kid anymore!


    "Be, since you''re making the trip here, why don''t you stay for dinner?"


    "Okay, see you in a bit."


    After hanging up, Romeo kissed Arabe again, as if it would never end.


    When they came down, Derek quickly bowed, "Mr. McMillian, Arabe."


    Was it over already??


    It''s only been half an hour, and Mr. McMillian had even finished his shower, wasn''t this a bit fast?


    No way.


    "We''re not dining here tonight. Tell Gary he doesn''t need to cook for us." Even though Romeo noticed


    the surprise and confusion in Derek''s eyes, he didn''t think twice about it.


    "Sure, Mr. McMillian."


    As Romeo left hand in hand with Arabe, Derek went to the garden to find Gary. Gary was also a bit


    stunned. Did Mr. McMillian just up and leave like that? Was he done that quickly??

    Carl, who was ying games in the car, suddenly heard someone knocking on the window. He looked


    up, and his phone nearly dropped out of his hands in shock.


    "Mr. McMillian."


    He had barely been gone half an hour, and he was already back? Who would''ve thought that Mr.


    McMillian, who seemed so tough and strong, would be such a quick shot.


    Poor Ms. Be!


    "What are you staring at me for? Unlock the car." Romeo was oblivious to his thoughts.


    "Alright." Carl hurriedly hit the unlock button. Romeo opened the car door, let Arabe get in first, then


    followed her into the car and said, "Drive to Fairfield Manor."


    "Now?"


    Did something happen to Phillip?


    "My grandmother woke up."


    "Oh, I see."


    Carl quickly started the engine.


    "What does your grandmother like the most?" In the car, Arabe suddenly asked, "We didn''t bring any


    gifts. It''s not very nice to show up empty-handed."
