Chapter 265 – Until You Say Sorry Novel

“Why doesn’t Daddy protect Mommy and make her happy?”

Kendrick released his arms and stared at the big eyes that looked like Niamh’s.

“Because I’ve made a mistake and am no longer qualified to give your mother happiness and joy.”

Kendrick’s guilt-ridden words slipped into her ears deeply and heavily.

Niamh’s heart started beating quickly. She no longer wanted to listen anymore. Just as she was about to drive away, Kendrick’s cell phone rang.

She heard Kendrick say anxiously, “Grandpa was sent to the emergency room?”

How could Grandpa suddenly be sent into the emergency room?

Niamh was also instantly worried. She did not think much and drove the car to the gate of the villa. “Kendrick, quickly grab Jack and get into the car.”

Hearing her, it was only then that Kendrick noticed Niamh had arrived some time ago.

He immediately picked Jackson up and got into Niamh’s car. She then drove straight to the hospital.

After getting out of the car, Kendrick hugged Jackson and rushed to the emergency room in strides while Niamh followed him closely.

Walking through the corridor, Niamh saw Karen and Kendrick’s father, Winston, waiting outside the emergency room with anxious and worried faces. Yvonne was also there.

Seeing Kendrick arrive, Karen immediately greeted him.

As soon as she saw Niamh walking behind him, Karen then suddenly pointed at Niamh while yelling, “Niamh, how dare you come here?! If anything happens to the old master, you’ll be a murderer!”

Mr. Waldburg, Winston, also faced Niamh with an ugly expression. “Niamh, even if Kendrick has let you down before and even if it was the old man who forced Kendrick to marry you and created this mistake of a marriage, you still shouldn’t have been so hateful to kill the old man!”

At this time, Yvonne also came over and accused her. “Vera, you’re too cruel for wanting to kill the old man. It seems that you and Felipe have colluded on this long ago! You’re too inhuman!”

When Yvonne’s voice fell, Kendrick’s face was already cold. “Shut your mouth! Who are you calling inhuman, huh? Say it again.”

“…” Yvonne’s face immediately paled. Chills were running down her spine out of fright.

Karen rushed forward fiercely while pointing at Niamh and cursing, “Kendrick, your grandfather is lying in the emergency room now and we don’t even know whether he’s alive or dead. It’s all because of this woman! She killed him! Why are you still helping her? She’s already having an affair with Felipe! Maybe Jackson is not your son at all but a wild thing that she and Felipe gave birth to!”

Kendrick’s face was shrouded in dark clouds for a moment as stormy waves were seen in his deep eyes.

“Are you crazy? Do you know what you’re saying?” His eyes flashed with a dazzling cold light while his words were like ice. “With your words, you’re not even worthy of being Jack’s grandmother!”

Karen felt a chill running down her back when she realized that she had made a mistake.

She hurriedly corrected herself and softened her tone. “Kendrick, I only said the wrong thing because I was so angry, but this woman did indeed break our family apart while colluding with Felipe.”

“Let’s not mention this matter for the time being, but she did intend to kill your grandfather!” Winston glared at Niamh furiously.

“Nia wouldn’t do such a thing.” Kendrick assured without hesitation.

Niamh never thought that Kendrick would one day choose to trust her without hesitation, but as soon as he said this, Niamh heard Karen scolding her again.

“Why wouldn’t she? She has done many of those sordid things before!”

“Those things in the past were all Nevaeh’s doings. The truth has long been revealed. Are you still pretending to be confused now?” Kendrick’s eyebrows were knitted tightly. He then said in a cold and domineering manner, “I will never allow anyone to slander my wife like this!”

Wife.

The word went into Niamh’s ears.

Yes, she would still be his legal wife, but only until tomorrow.

Karen did not expect Kendrick to trust and protect Niamh this much. Compared to when he was with Nevaeh before, he had never gotten so angry.

It seemed that she had no choice but to believe that Kendrick’s feelings for Niamh were true.

“Kendrick, what Aunty and Uncle said is true. Niamh really wants to kill Grandpa. We have proof!” Yvonne interjected.

In the past, Niamh would have panicked with fear, but now, instead of panicking at all, she was calm.

“You keep saying that I want to murder Grandpa and there’s evidence. So where’s the evidence?”

Yvonne raised her eyebrows arrogantly when she heard the words. “Niamh, let me ask you this, did you go to the nursing home to see Grandpa yesterday?”

“I went to see Grandpa, so what?”

“You’re willing to admit it! You gave Grandpa a box of tea cakes through the nurse there before you left. Grandpa ate your tea cakes before he was poisoned and was sent to the emergency room!”

Tea cakes?

Niamh remembered that this was indeed a snack that the old man loved.

She was about to speak when she heard Kendrick say, “I brought Nia to see Grandpa yesterday, but Nia was with me from when we got there until we left. She never brought any tea cakes.”

“Was she really with you the whole time? Not once were you separated?” Mr. Waldburg asked, unconvinced.

Kendrick replied solemnly, “Yes, Nia was always with me.”

His answer obviously made Karen and Yvonne dissatisfied. “It’s also possible that she could have gone back after you left!”

“Absurd,” Kendrick said unhappily, “Grandpa is so good to Nia, so why would Nia hurt Grandpa?”

Karen rolled her eyes unwillingly. “She’s pretending. Otherwise, why would she join Felipe to steal the Waldburg family’s house? She even forced Grandpa to a nursing home!”

“The reason Grandpa wants to live in a nursing home is to avoid you. He wants to be clean!”

Kendrick exposed that truth hardly with any tact and Karen was immediately speechless. Her face turned purple with anger.

Just then, the door to the operating room opened and the doctor came out. He said solemnly, “The old man was infected with a kind of potassium cyanide poison. He has temporarily passed the critical period. However, because he’s too old, his bodily functions could decline and something may happen anytime. You must be mentally prepared.”

After listening to the doctor’s words, Karen looked indignant and wanted to cast her anger on Niamh.

Niamh ignored her without surprise. There was no need for her to argue. “I will find the murderer who really hurt Grandpa and I’ll prove my innocence.” She threw out the assurance, then turned around calmly.

Kendrick did not stay long either and followed Niamh while carrying Jackson.

Niamh knew that Kendrick was behind her and she said lightly, “I went to see Grandpa yesterday. You weren’t with me at all. Was your assurance a bit too sloppy?”

“I don’t think it’s sloppy.” Kendrick was still very assured. “I made a very terrible mistake before and I won’t make it again.”

Niamh chuckled softly. “Maybe you’re wrong again this time.”

“As long as I stand on the same side as you, even if there’s hell ahead, I’ll jump in without hesitation.”

Niamh stepped out of the hospital door and slowly came to a stop. The corners of her lips curled into a smile. “There will never be a day where you and I can stand together anymore.”

Kendrick’s heart was instantly broken into two pieces when he heard those words. He looked at Niamh’s back that was close at hand, but he felt that there was a distance of endless mountains and rivers between them.

“Eveline? It’s really you, Eveline!” In the distance, Eloise called out to Niamh in surprise and ran over.

Niamh looked at the person who was gradually approaching, feeling surprised. While she was still feeling puzzled, the little guy in Kendrick’s arms asked, “Grandma, why did you come to the hospital as well?”

There was a flash of worry in Eloise’s eyes as she replied, “It’s nothing. Grandma and Grandpa are just here for a routine check-up.”
