Chapter 1196: I love your mother, so I want to marry her.

Still, why would someone like this be in her mother’s ward?

“Mr. Charles?”

In contrast to her confusion, Egger easily recognized the elderly man.

He could not believe his eyes at first.

Although he was aware that influential people would come to this clinic, he did not expect this man, who had great influence in England, to appear in the ward of Pei Ge’s mother.

“Ah? Do you know him?”

Hearing him call the man’s name, she understood at once that this stranger in her mother’s ward was no ordinary man.

“You must be Hua’s daughter.”

The elderly man looked at her and her two children warmly while completely ignoring Egger.

“You are…”

She frowned. Seeing the man acting familiar with her, as though he were talking to an old friend’s daughter, she only felt confusion. Did he know her mother?

“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I’m called Charles, and I’m your mother’s friend.”

The elderly man stood up and introduced himself to her.

“Ah? You’re my mother’s friend, but how come I haven’t heard mom mentioning you?”

A look of suspicion flashed across her face.

This man was clearly of different nationality!

How had her mother, who had not once left the country when she was still up and about, gained a foreign friend?

She sized up the man and noted that he was around her mother’s age.

Even though there were traces of the man’s age on his face, that only added to his overall charm.

This man was, in fact, good-looking.

If he were a few years younger, he might look even better than Ji Ziming.

Subconsciously, she used that guy for comparison.

Stop! Stop! Pei Ge, why are you thinking of him right now?

“He he! Young lady, your mom and I are both patients here, so we count as comrades, and that translates to us being friends.” Smiling, he tried to clear her confusion.

“Comrades?” Seriously?

She was stunned at that.

Her mother had not once regained consciousness since she was admitted to this clinic; how did he become friends with her mother, then? More importantly, how did she not know about this?

“Mhm.”

Faced with her confusion, the elderly man merely turned to regard the pale face of Zhang Manhua, who was lying in bed.

Because she had not seen the sun for five years, the woman looked rather frail with her sickly pale skin.

That did not diminish her beauty, though.

Conversely, her pale skin added to her attractiveness.

“I heard that your mom’s condition has improved recently, and that you’re coming over to visit her today, so I decided to come as well.”

“Huh?”

She had no idea what this stranger meant.

Her mind was a mess right now.

“I love your mother, so I want to marry her.”

“What?!”

“What?!”

As this man spoke, not only just her, even Egger exclaimed in surprise.

“Mister… what are you saying? I don’t seem to follow…”

She knitted her brows, her mind a mess. She bewilderedly regarded this man standing by her mother’s bed.

“I’ve fallen in love with her, so I intend to marry her once she regains consciousness. Of course, even if she doesn’t, that’s fine with me; I’ll still marry her.”

He looked at the woman lying in bed with a loving gaze.

Screened sunlight shone on her body, making her glow in the light.

“…” This reminded Pei Ge of her father, and she took in this elderly man’s gentle gaze.

When her father was still around, he used the same gaze to look at her mother…

Taking a deep breath, she decided to end this madness.

“Mister, I don’t know why you have such a thought, but I’m afraid that your opinion doesn’t count in this case. My mother has the final say.

“While you claim to be my mom’s friend, she has likely not seen you before, so please don’t say such ridiculous things.”

As she spoke, she felt Egger tug on her arm.

Looking at the conflicted expression on his face, she understood that the man standing opposite her was truly someone powerful.

Even he was cautious of him.

She was too bothered by it, considering that it involved her mother.

She felt this to be too surreal. Even after spending so many years confined in bed, her mother still got herself an admirer?

Really… she did not know what to say regarding this.

“I’ve been with your mother for years now; I’m sure she knows me…”

The elderly man chuckled softly before reaching out to caress her mother’s pale face.

She felt upset when she saw him do that.

How could she not be when a stranger was touching her mother right before her?

“Don’t touch my mom!”

She rushed over but tripped and stumbled to the man, catching him off guard.

This resulted in him falling toward the bed and his lips touching something soft…

“Wow! Sleeping granny got kissed by an old prince! Grandma’s gonna wake up now!”
