章節 1186: Not a request, but an order from the head of the Zhu Family.

[HEART GENERAL HOSPITAL]

Axel sat beside Grandma Zhu's bed. His eyes fixated on the old madam's wrinkly side profile. Her usual elegance was gone. The woman who was respected and feared before was now nothing but a sickly old lady. 

When Axel was a child, he often heard how great of a woman his grandmother was. He could still remember a time in his childhood when Old Madam Zhu protected him from the people who were bullying him. At that time, he thought that he was blessed to be born into this family. He was grateful to have someone protect him, no matter what. 

At that time, Axel truly and deeply never would have imagined feeling this sick and repelled by the same people and family. Except for his brother and Dominic's children, Axel just couldn't see the reason he needed to reconnect with the rest of the family.
