THE DOCTOR'S LOVE TRAP

98. A Gift from Grandma

Today is the first day El returned to work at the hospital after she suffered a stabbing incident some time ago.

Apparently, El has a special guest. Theresa visited the man as a patient who wanted to consult. Unfortunately El can not serve his grandmother who is looking to play around. In addition to his work has piled up, he is also not a doctor who opens a consultation schedule. His job was not to listen to complaints about the grandmother's illness.

However, since El was not able to drive away the grandmother. Finally he asked the old woman to wait for him for a while until his work was a little off. However, especially for his grandmother he will listen to anything - especially about the history of the disease of the grandmother.

Isn't El worth knowing that?

Theresia did not mind, patiently waiting for Elrich. Time is money to him. But, all this time he had already spent a lot of time for work, so occasionally he wanted to make time for his only grandson.

"Sorry, Grandma. I'm very busy today. Did grandma have lunch?"

"Will you have lunch with grandma, El?"

"Of course, Grandma."

There is always wisdom behind every event. Their relationship, for example. El and Theresia are getting closer since Theresia helped a lot due to the incident that befell El the other day.

El can also see the old woman's sincerity.

They both walked side by side to the nearest restaurant from the hospital. El tried to get closer to the grandmother as her Grandmother also began to put herself so that there would be no more awkwardness between them.

And it seems to work. They were at the restaurant and ordered the same menu. Their likes seem the same. They even have similar allergies. El chuckled knowing this fact, it made them seem even more familiar.

"El, grandma has a gift for you. Not much but you can use it as well as you can."

"Gift? What gift, grandma?"

"Hospitals under the auspices of Heaven Company have been completed. Grandma wanted to inaugurate it immediately. Grandma hope you're willing to record your name as the owner. Consider it a grandmother's award for your profession, even if it's still too little."

El looked at Theresia with a stunned look as if in disbelief.

"Serious granny?"

"Of course, El."

"But I'm too comfortable working here. If I had my own Hospital in my name, I would not be able to work like a regular doctor. Surely later I will also take care of the health business that is in it. I can't, grandma." El tried to subtly refuse.

Theresia wore an elegant-looking knotty smile on her aging beautiful face. He could not believe that his granddaughter would not be given gifts and awards. Why did El have to grow up with such low self-esteem? But, behind that, of course, Theresa was also grateful because her granddaughter did not want to take advantage of what she had.

"El, grandma please."

El thought for a moment while weighing.

"Ehmm.. okay, Grandma. But, I don't take it for free."

"meaning?"

"I'll work there without a salary. I want to devote myself to helping others. So, the hospital will be used to help people who lack the cost when they want to do surgery or treatment. How's it?"

Theresa laughed a little. "You're serious?" tanyakanya.

"Well, don't you think grandma has a lot of money? Does grandma still need money from the income earned at that hospital, later?"

"Yes, no. but, do you not want to have income yourself? How will you support your wife's child later?"

El was silent. What her grandmother said was true. He himself did not want to take care of the grandmother's business. Although grandma insisted on sending funds to her account from the stock results that Theresia made on behalf of El. But, of course El wants to have income from his own hard work.

Not long after, El spoke again.

"What if the hospital is operating as usual. Accept all patients. But, if there are patients who lack funds and fees, the hospital is still willing to accept and fund it until it heals."

Theresia smiled satisfied with the proposal that El gave at the moment. "Then, grandma agrees!" verily spirit.

"It turns out the closer you get, Grandma just realized that you're on too many terms, El."

Elrich was stunned to hear the complaints of his grandmother who was insinuating him.

"Alright, tell me what your other terms are!"

"I haven't been able to see my father in person, I've only called him a few times via video call. Elena will soon be back in Sweden, can it be before that happens ... I visited the father in his villa with Grandma as well?"

Hearing that, the now silent Theresia. His relationship with Edgar was not good enough. He was the one who strongly opposed Emily's marriage to Edgar. Although the Edgar family did not agree to it, but it would be awkward if he met the former daughter-in-law who he did not admit.

"How, Grandma? My father was a good man. He wouldn't hold any feelings of resentment or anything like that to grandma. I can vouch for it." El said with so much confidence that Theresia hesitated to refuse the offer of the grandson.

"All right."

Abrine prepared several pairs of clothes into the backpack that El would wear. She was delighted that El and Theresa would visit Edgar together today.

Abrine did not come, but he was eager to visit his father-in-law. But, he was also aware that Elrich, Theresia and Edgar must have good quality time without him.

Things that had not been clear in the past had to be resolved, and although Abrine had become the son-in-law of the Gustav family, he did not want to interfere too much. He just wants to give a little time for the family - to be able to talk about the past that used to go wrong.

Abrine hopes, hopefully they return to a warm family and can repair the relationship that was damaged.

"Darling, are you sure you're not coming?" El hugs Abrine from behind. He was a little disappointed that his wife did not want to follow him wherever he went, but he did not want to force his wife..

"Yes, after all you've only been there two days, right?"

"Is it okay if I leave you alone?"

"It's okay, El...."

"I'm afraid you're okay."

"I won't worry you. Go out with grandma and make your grandma and dad's relationship better."

"You're very understanding, Brine." El rubbed his wife's chubby cheeks, Abrine smiled at her husband..

Before long, El also stroked the wife's stomach.

"Tomorrow Daddy will go to the Grandpa villa, you take good care of Mommy. Don't ask for anything weird, okay?" El chattered at the baby Abrine was in, as if they were already in front of him and could understand what he was saying.

"Yes, Daddy.." Abrine replies to the voice of the children.

The two of them chuckled in unison and hugged each other.

"I'll ask Erland to take care of you as long as I'm gone."

"You sure? You trust him?" Abrine humps a smile. He had no idea this time El would rely on Wildan.

"From the beginning, I knew Erland was trustworthy, but not with her mother" El replied with a serious look.

Abrine only responded with a small laugh. "Don't do it, El. Ehm... how about you all invite Mama Erika to come see me," proposed Abrine random.

"What's? What did you say, honey?" El nodded in disagreement. Didn't he hear wrong?

Abrine looked hesitant. "Who knows his relationship with my father is improving."

"Jeez, my wife's proposal is weird." El passed as if Abrine's words were just a joke. He did not want to discuss it further, because he would lose the good mood if talking about Erika.
