Chapter 84 One Night By Mommy’s side

Hansel nodded before he finally went out with Piers Brion and Gretel.

Mark Pattinson, on the other hand, turned back to the ward when he saw them leave.

Back in the car; just as Hansel entered, his expression abruptly took a turn. “How is the investigation that I assigned you going on?”

Piers Brion looked at him. “You were right. It is her!”

When he heard this, a cruel grin spread across Hansel’s face.

He said this before. Anyone who had hurt his mummy, he would pay their deeds back a thousandfold!

This time, she had really crossed his line.

“Let’s go. Send me back first!”

“Sure!” Piers Brion drove the car and sent Hansel back.

It was already very late by the time Piers Brion sent them upstairs. Just as he was leaving, Hansel opened up, “Wait!”

“Is there anything else?”

“I’m a little hungry. Are you hungry? Would you like to have something before leaving?” Hansel asked.

After a whole night of turmoil, he had not eaten yet. Now that he was back and about to go to bed, he realized that he was hungry.

Piers Brion’s eyes sparkled that very moment. “I’m hungry. Of course, I’m hungry!” As he said this, he immediately walked back in and sat on the sofa. “Hehe. Don’t mind if I do!”

Hansel glanced at him speechlessly, before he turned to walk towards the kitchen.

Gretel and Piers Brion were sitting on the sofa. “Tell me, quick. What happened today?”

Piers Brion watched Gretel. Even though he had not interacted with her much, after seeing Hansel that day, it was safe to assume that Gretel was the same too.

“Do you want to know?”

“Nonsense. Why would I ask you if I didn't?”

Piers Brion was speechless.

Of course, these two siblings had the same temper.

Even though this Gretel looked like a princess, when her temper flared, she could be pretty feisty too.

“Alright!” Piers Brion nodded, then he started to tell Gretel the whole story.

Whereas back in the kitchen, Hansel was still worried about Lyla. Besides, he regretted coming home now. After dwelling on it throughout the day, he still could not let go of his thoughts. As long as Mark Pattinson was there, he was relieved.

With this thought in mind, he started to cook earnestly.

Actually, it was nothing much, just three bowls of noodles.

He called out as he carried them out, “It’s pretty late. So let’s have a simple meal.”

Although it was just a bowl of noodles, Hansel made them look very presentable. Just as Gretel said, it was no different from what a six-star hotel would serve.

It was pretty lucky to get a meal by now, especially one that smelled, looked and tasted this appetizing. Piers Brion had nothing to pick on.

“Thank you, boss!” Piers Brion said smiling, as he came over to take the noodles.

Then Gretel opened up and said, “Yours is in the kitchen, go take it yourself!”

Piers Brion had nothing to say to that.

Feeling exceptionally annoyed, he got up and went to the kitchen to get his noodles.

Soon after, he walked back out. As he carried the noodles, he sat by Hansel’s side. It looked delicious and tasted even better than it looked. Piers Brion was truly impressed.

“Boss, are you a genius?” Piers Brion could not help but say.

However, Hansel lazily lifted an eyebrow, “Well, obviously I am!”

Piers Brion was speechless. He really had nothing to say to that.

“This is too good!”

“Manners. How could you eat a bowl of noodles that atrociously! ” Hansel could not help nag.

“I haven’t eaten for the whole day, alright!” Piers Brion could not help but refute. He had been busy with the stocks since this morning. At night, he was busy with his own matters. At this point, not only were noodles delicious, even plain bread would be good.

Hansel glanced at him. It was not just him, even he was hungry himself.

He had never skipped a single one of his three daily meals. Now that he had missed dinner tonight, he was absolutely famished.

Gretel on the other hand did not say anything but silently ate by the side. She was very hungry too...

When they were almost done, then only Piers Brion lifted his eyes to watch Hansel. “Right, Boss. What do you plan to do with this issue?”

When he mentioned this, Hansel was stiffened while he was eating. Soon after, he said, “I will have to think this matter through first!” he had never liked to be straightforward, instead he preferred to torture them slowly. So, he would consider this slowly before he gave his answer,

Piers Brion nodded his head. After he finished his remaining noodles, he looked at Hansel, “Would you need me tomorrow then?”

“There’s no need. You just watch those stocks well. Do not let anything happen. If something goes wrong, I call you again!” Hansel said.

Piers Brion nodded. “Alright, if there’s nothing else, then I’ll take my leave!”

“Mm!” Hansel nodded. Then only Piers Brion left.

Only Hansel and Gretel were left in the house. “Alright, let’s go to bed early. We still have to visit mummy in the hospital tomorrow!”

Gretel nodded, then she went back to her room.

It was not the first time these two were left home alone. Back when they were overseas, Lyla had gone to school in the morning and worked at night to raise them. They have seen all her work hard and felt their hearts bleed for all her hard work. It was just that at the time, they could not do anything but only watch helplessly.

This was the very reason why their bond with Lyla was so close.

Nothing could ever overcome their bond.

So now that something had happened to her, the siblings were extremely worried. Neither of them could sleep well that whole night.

...

The next day was coincidentally a Sunday. So the two siblings did not have school. Hansel had woken up early to boil some soup for Lyla and planned to bring some to the hospital.

For once, Gretel had woken up surprisingly early. Otherwise, she would usually sleep in until 10 am. It was obvious that the two of them were both extremely worried.

“Are you done packing?” Hansel asked, looking at her.

Gretel nodded. “Let’s go!”

Then only did the two siblings set off to the hospital.

In the hospital.
