Diana - Chapter 293
Looking at the two oldies staring at Diana’s stomach lovingly, but couldn’t join in, because they haven’t seen Diana before, Ethan sighed before greeting them.
They weren’t on good terms, because they tried to make him inherit the hospital, which he refused.
He’s not their only grandchild, but they were so adamant on making him inherit it, instead of the company.
This causes a dispute between him and his cousin then. They didn’t give it to someone that’s on the same line and qualified for it.
It felt hypocritical to him, because they knew he studied business and was brought up to take over the company. Forcing it on him isn’t caring, but annoying.
Up till date, his cousin hated him for something he had no input in. They let him be after he fought them, which they also responded to, by breaking ties with him.
They said he chose his father’s side over them. They haven’t talked since then, but he’s not the type that harbors ill feelings for long.
If he needed something medical related, he sought help from the hospital, instead of going elsewhere, unless it’s necessary.
They heard about it and didn’t say anything, but still refused to talk to him. He wondered why they decided to do that now.
“Hi.” Diana greeted the old couple as grandpa introduced them.
She smiled awkwardly as the woman was staring at her stomach. “mom? dad?” she heard Melanie’s voice from behind.
Before she could wrap her head around everything, she was already in the old woman’s embrace. “What a beautiful girl. How are you child?” the woman asked, while her husband smiled at her stupefied expression.
Regaining herself, she hugged her back, “I’m fine.” she said, but Ethan was already separating them, “she’s not healthy for too much hugs.” he said.
“Ha!” Daina exclaimed as the woman began hitting Ethan.
“You rascal. How dare you take a wife and didn’t let us hear about it. How dare you forget about us…..” the woman rant on and on.
Diana furrowed her brow and later relaxed it after Ethan rolled his eyes at the woman. She could tell they weren’t on good terms before.
She chuckled and gestured for him to stop being stubborn and respond to the woman. The husband saw how she communicated with Ethan with her eyes and saw Ethan hugging the old woman.
“There grandma. This rascal didn’t forget you. I’ve been busy with work.” he said, easing the tension, before the couple loosen up completely.
“What a good girl you got boy.” Diana heard his grandpa say, and smile at the old man.
After a few introductions and all, they all head inside. Ethan tried to reject the doctors that came, but one of them was the one who operated on Diana for her former illness, who was also someone he confide in, whenever he needed medical help from their hospital.
Just like that, the place that’s meant for the duo, become filled with nurses and permanent doctors, who are to stay till Diana recovered completely.
The grandparents refused to leave as well, claiming they wanted to be around when their great-grandchild got delivered.
Ethan sulk everyday as they didn’t leave a chance for him to be with her, unless it’s time to sleep. They bombard her with questions, which Diana seems to be totally into.
Each time he made an excuse to take her away, they will claim they are still going to sleep on the same bed, so he can have her then.
Before he knew what was happening, 10 well experienced maids were flown over, making the private island become a public island completely.
The only thing he appreciated about this whole thing is being able to persuade Chris to leave.
He didn’t even get to accompany her to walk anymore. While the nurse helped her, the three grannies monitored everything, while they chatted and laughed happily.
Ethan only gets to watch from the side. He should be happy, but he felt the opposite. When they finally released her, he had no choice but to pet her to sleep early.
Diana felt like she’s in heaven. This is her own definition of heaven, because she’s getting the love and affection she has been craving since long.
The thought that her child will be born into a world full of love, makes her the happiest. She will never get tired of it.
After their talk and laughing, the whole family later released her. She has been able to walk on her own, so Ethan was all alone, staring at the ceiling of their room.
Holding grandpa’s arm, while they still continued talking, Diana got to the entrance of their room, before the old man left.
She opened the door and walked inside. She had a smile on her face like an idiot. It’s been more than a month that they’ve been staying together.
Alex and Tony have come to visit twice, while their wives still refused to leave. She’s really happy with the whole thing. Diana walked towards the bedroom and saw Ethan staring into space.
She raised her brow, as his head snapped towards her direction. He stood up and helped her get on the bed and returned to his former position, while his hand held her own.
Diana could feel the stiffness in his actions, “you okay?” she asked.
“I’m not okay. They are having you to themselves. They totally took all your attention from me. It’s my woman and my baby, yet they took over.” Ethan who had tried to keep this feeling to himself, because it will sound childish no matter how he put it, finally blurted out.
He’s frustrated with the whole thing. He didn’t wish to share. At least not with so many people.
He’s supposed to have a talk with her now and some cuddles, but he knew she had to rest, because she must have taken her drugs before they finally released her to him, so she needed to rest.
This is so annoying and it’s starting to get on his nerves.
