Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 1069

Lucinda stood there, unsure what to do next. She looked over at Kylie and Cameron, searching their faces for some kind of answer. Ever since she’d come back to the hospital yesterday afternoon, something about her grandfather just felt off. She couldn’t explain why, but he didn’t seem like himself.

Kylie and Cameron exchanged a glance. After a moment, they realized they needed Lydia’s opinion. Maybe she’d know what to do. So they picked up the phone and called her to ask if it was safe for Grandpa to recover at home instead of staying in the hospital.

Lydia was already on her way to the hospital when Kylie called. “Lydia, your grandpa says he wants to leave the hospital now. He really doesn’t want to stay here any longer. Do you think that’s okay?” Kylie asked.

Lydia paused for a second. “I’m almost there. Let me come up and check on him before we decide.”

Kylie’s face relaxed a little. “Alright, thanks.”

After hanging up, she turned back to Grandpa, who was half-sitting in the hospital bed. “Dad, you know how good Lydia is at this stuff. Let her take a look at you. If she says you’re good to go home, we’ll go. If you need to stay a bit longer, then we’ll stick around for a while.”

Grandpa let out a frustrated huff. “I told you, I’m fine. You all just love making a fuss over nothing.”

Cameron spoke up too. “Dad, Kylie’s only thinking about your health.”

Grandpa didn’t say anything after that.

A few minutes later, Lydia arrived. She spotted Cameron and Kylie looking stressed and asked, “What did the doctor say?”

“The doctor said he’s stable right now. The main worry is that he’s older and not moving around very well. They’re afraid he might hurt himself again if he goes home, so they want him to stay here for a couple more days. But he really wants to go back,” Kylie explained.

It wasn’t unusual for older people to hate staying in hospitals. Grandpa wasn’t the only one who wanted out. There were plenty of elderly patients who’d rather be home.
