Chapter 29 My Mom Is Really Great!
North replied, “I’m six and a half years old now, Great-grandpa. I’m attending school at a noble
kindergarten.”
Old Man Nolan stroked his goatee beard and laughed happily. “Well, he’s very eloquent and quick-
witted. Doctor Maxwell, your son is amazing!”
Olivia chuckled. “Yes, but he’s just too mischievous.”
Old Man Nolan then looked at North carefully before muttering to himself, “It’s good to be mischievous.
All mischievous kids are smart.”
North looked at the little gray beard on Old Man Nolan’s chin and was eager to touch it. “Great-
grandpa, may I touch your beard?”
Old Man Nolan stretched his chin forward and answered happily, “Go ahead!”
Upon hearing North’s request, Olivia frowned. “Don’t be rude, North.”
However, Old Man Nolan was generous and replied, “It’s fine. The child is curious. Go ahead and touch
it!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNorth’s eyes were filled with excitement. His small hand gently touched Old Man Nolan’s beard before
he smiled happily. “Great-grandpa, your beard isn’t prickly at all.”
While he said this, North even touched his own chin and continued, “Why can’t I grow one?”
After saying those words, the room was filled with laughter, and Old Man Nolan had the happiest smile
on him. “Your beard will be long once you’ve reached my age.”
“Then we’ll see who will have the longest beard by then?”
Old Man Nolan laughed out loud. “Alright. I’ll work hard to live longer so that we can compare when the
time comes.”
North patted his chest and assured him. “Don’t worry. Mommy’s here. She’ll cure your disease!”
Old Man Nolan laughed out loud while his face was glowing and his cheeks were ruddy.
Meanwhile, Olivia’s face turned dark. She could not understand how North was so confident. Even
Olivia dared not to speak a word about this.
A soft layer of light shone on Eugene’s face too. He was pleased that this little guy was able to make
his grandfather so happy.
Nathan, too, could not hold in his laughter. “You’re always advertising about your mom no matter when
and where you are.”
North gave him a look and explained, “That’s because my mom is really great.”
Nathan did not care much about him and said, “Great-grandpa, you should let Olivia examine you.”
Old Man Nolan agreed to it.
Later, Olivia took out a small pulse pillow and checked his pulse. She also inquired about his recent
diet and sleeping patterns. After ten minutes, Olivia replied, “Your recovery is going well. Try not to be
angry and overly excited, Grandpa. No matter what you’re facing, try not to get anxious and try to stay
positive. Also, try to have a balanced diet. Don’t overeat, but try having small, frequent meals instead.”
“Alright.” Old Man Nolan nodded in agreement. “I didn’t expect that you’d be so good at this at such a
young age.”
Olivia smiled and answered, “I’m just good at traditional Chinese medicine and it just so happens that I
was able to cure your disease.”
Old Man Nolan chuckled. “You don’t have to be so humble. I know my illness very well. It’s thanks to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyour capabilities that I was saved from the gates of death. Rocky, have you properly thanked Doctor
Maxwell?”
Upon hearing this, Olivia wanted to laugh. Is Eugene’s nickname ‘Rocky’?
On the other hand, Eugene’s face turned dark and whispered, “Grandpa, there are still outsiders here!”
Old Man Nolan froze for a while as he stroked his goatee beard awkwardly. “You little brat. I’m already
used to calling you by this name. I’m asking you if you had thanked her? Can’t you listen to the main
point of my sentence?”
Eugene facepalmed at his words and looked toward the other three who were trying hard to suppress
their laughter.
“Grandpa, can you ask them if they heard anything else besides the nickname?”
Old Man Nolan looked toward them and asked, “Did you all hear anything else?”
With a serious face, Nathan answered, “I heard that you want Eugene to thank Olivia.”
Olivia also added, “That’s right. You’re most welcome, Grandpa. Mr. Nolan has already paid me!”
North grinned and continued, “Great-grandpa, mommy says that it’s her responsibility to treat and save
people.”
“See; everyone heard something else!” Old Man Nolan exclaimed.
Meanwhile, Eugene was so angry that he became speechless. Were they all lying through their teeth?
