Franklin said gently to Kira, "Grandma, do you want some fruit?" And then he signaled for Jasper to do it. Jasper hurriedly opened the fruit basket and took out several large red apples from it.
Before Jasper could peel one, Franklin said, "I'll do it myself." Jasper was shocked and almost stabbed his finger with the knife.
It was rare for Franklin to peel an apple.
Only Kira and Sylvia deserved such treatment! Sylvia then saw Franklin take over the apple and the knife, and began to peel the apple with his big hands.
He was even charming when he peeled an apple.
Under the incandescent light of the ward, he looked mysterious and noble, due to which Sylvia was unwilling to look away from him.
Gradually, Sylvia flushed and her heart began to beat faster.
Franklin was too tempting. Even if Sylvia was very familiar with him, she was tempted by his handsome face.
She exhaled quietly to calm down.
Just as Sylvia looked away, Kira asked, "Franklin, what kind of job are you doing?" "I'm an airplane pilot, Grandma. When you get well, I'l invite you take the plane I fly. I'm better than anyone else at flying a plane, so you needn't worry about safety.” Franklin looked up at Kira with a smile.
When he spoke to someone, he would habitually look directly into his eyes. And his eyes were very gentle now.
The way Kira looked at him and said to him made him feel more at home, which even reminded him of his grandparents.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis feeling made him feel comfortable and cozy.
"Flying a plane? This is an awesome job." Kira was very satisfied with Franklin. She had thought Mark and Vaild were good.
But now she thought they were just better than ordinary people.
Compared with Franklin, Mark and Vaild paled a lot.
Sylvia deserved the best.
"Sylvia is a doctor and I'm a pilot. | think we're both doing a good job." Franklin took a look at Sylvia meaningfully.
Words failed Sylvia.
She knew Franklin said this on purpose.
Sylvia thought, "Why don't you say you are the president of SouthStar Airlines? And even Maskelyne Group is under your control.
It's not typical of you to be so modest!" Franklin didn't want to be modest, either, but he was afraid to scare Kira.
"It's not easy to find a good job." Kira nodded, "When Sylvia was 15 years old, she was admitted to the college, but her father didn't let her go to the college at such a young age. It was | who made the decision and sent Sylvia to the college.” Speaking of this, Kira sighed. She was not very old back then, so she had a say in that. As she grew worse these years, Otto and Skyla became increasingly aggressive.
"What are you saying this for, Grandma?" Sylvia was a little awkward.
"It doesn't matter. Franklin is your friend." Kira smiled, "Franklin, do you know? Sylvia achieved the highest scores in SAT, so the village government gave me a little money as a reward for raising Sylvia. | gave it all to Sylvia as tuition.” Franklin's speculation was finally confirmed! Sylvia was the anonymous girl who had achieved the highest scores in SAT.
Franklin knew it.
However, he was still shocked when Kira said it to her.
He looked towards Sylvia as if he wanted to devour her.
He did not expect that she grew up in the countryside. No wonder she was so close to her grandmother. Knowing that Kira brought up Sylvia alone, Franklin had great respect for Kira from the bottom of his heart.
"Grandma, you must have had a hard time over the years." Franklin said softly, "Sylvia is great." More exactly, Sylvia was excellent! It was fantastic for a 15-year-old girl to achieve the highest scores in SAT.
She was a genius! Sylvia listened to the conversation between Kira and Franklin. Although she was the one who was being discussed, she found it hard to join them.
The apple was peeled. Sylvia didn't expect Franklin was good at peeling apples. The apple skin was not broken but connected in circles.
Franklin got up, cut up the apple into small pieces, and put them on a disposable plate with a small fork.
Then he brought the plate to Kira. "Grandma, you try it. The apple is from abroad." "Thank you." Kira could tell from Franklin's luxurious clothes, extraordinary appearance, and awesome temperament that he must come from a noble or wealthy family.
But Kira knew little of Franklin's background, so she was not sure whether his family would be nice to Sylvia.
That was what she was most worried about.
Thinking of this, Kira took a bite of the apple piece and said, "Do you have any siblings?" Franklin froze, and then he smiled again. "I have an older sister, a younger brother, and a younger sister. Both my parents are living abroad and they work in research.” Franklin did not notice the gleam of confusion and sharpness in Sylvia's eyes when he said the word "research".
Sylvia was surprised that Franklin had a sister.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe knew that he had younger siblings, but she knew nothing about his older sister.
Therefore, Sylvia glanced at Franklin in doubt. She felt she still knew little about him.
Realizing Sylvia's confusion, Franklin said, "My sister has always lived with my parents, and she is also engaged in research.” Sylvia did not say anything, but looked at the time and then at Kira. Kira looked tired, so Sylvia said, "It's late. You should go back." Franklin did not get up but nestled on the sofa, "Grandma needs good care, so | will take care of her tonight. And you can rest in the lounge next to us." Franklin said naturally as if he was Kira's granddaughter-in-law.
And he was doing what a granddaughter-in-law should do.
Sylvia was startled, and so was Kira.
Before Sylvia could say something, Kira said, "Franklin, | can't have you do that. Hurry up and get back to rest. | don't need anyone here. And the nurses do much better than you in taking care of me. Hurry up and go home." Kira said seriously, "Franklin, can you give Sylvia a ride home?" Sylvia was lost for words.
She wanted to refuse.
But Kira continued in a firm and decisive tone, "I'm fine, so you must go back to rest right now. Or | will be angry!" Sylvia knew Kira's temper. In order not to make Kira angry, Sylvia had to follow Franklin out of the ward.
It was very late now.
The hospital, where the Andrews made a scene, fell into silence at this time.
Sylvia had mixed feelings inside her.
She didn't expect Franklin would chat with her grandmother so attentively.
In her mind, he was always ignorant. Thus, she was surprised by what Franklin did.
Sylvia was also guilty of her negligence in caring about Kira.
She didn't even know that her grandmother was seriously ill.
She felt very sorry for Kira and thought she shouldn't have spent too much time on work. At the sight of Kira's huddling in the attic, Sylvia almost freaked out in a rage.
She even wanted to kill Otto and Skyla.
