Love Comes To Me
Chapter 848: Yes there is a Khan family

The request made sense and she did not hesitate to nod her head in response.

Edgar got up impatiently, as if with a lingering worry between his brows, "Can we go now?"

Eloise pursed her lips and glanced at the clock, "Yes."

After all, it is better to settle this matter sooner rather than later.

It was a family matter for Maryam, so Hector didn't follow Eloise to the hospital and only gave the driver a lift to take them there.

Soon, Eloise leads Edgar to Maryam's hospital room.

Maryam had fallen asleep just before Eloise came home, and was still asleep at this moment.

Through the clear glass of the ward door, Edgar saw Maryam in the hospital bed.

His face is pale and haggard.

When Eloise saw Maryam like this, her heart felt like it was being silently squeezed by an invisible hand.

"How long has she, how long has she been in hospital, Auntie?"

Edgar's brow was furrowed and the worry on his face was evident.

She lifted her hand and tapped her fingertips on the glass, looking at the man in the hospital bed with distress, "It's been some days, the doctor said to stay in hospital for observation, so it's been until now."

Edgar looked at Maryam, his eyes were dull and red, he let out a long sigh and said, "If grandpa saw his aunt in this state, he would be very sad too."

Maryam was Master Khan's most beloved daughter and she was practically held in the palm of her hand from an early age.

Even with a younger brother, she is still a little princess in the eyes of Master Khan.

The most beloved youngest daughter is now suffering from such an illness, if Master Khan really wants to see it with his own eyes.

It must have been heartbreaking.

Eloise sighed ruefully and faced Edgar, apologising, "I'm sorry, but my mother can't go back for now."

When Edgar saw Maryam's current situation, he naturally could not force anything further.

He was silent for a long moment and inquired, somewhat hesitantly, "Can you ... come back with me?"

At that, Eloise was stunned for a moment, barely understanding the meaning of Edgar's words.

"Now that my aunt is sick and can't go back, grandpa should be disappointed that he can't see her, but if you can go back, perhaps grandpa will be very relieved." Edgar explained.

He didn't get to meet his aunt, and I'm sure he would have loved to meet her daughter.

Eloise pursed her red lips slightly as she did not immediately agree.

The Khan family was very new to her and she did not know anyone in it.

Seeing that Eloise was hesitant to give a reply, Edgar hesitantly added, "In a few days it will be grandpa's birthday banquet, and the family will be celebrating grandpa's birthday at that time. With grandpa's current health condition, I'm afraid he won't make it past a few ..."

This is probably what Master Khan was aiming for as well.

Wanted to take advantage of the birthday party to claim Maryam back home.

But God forbid.

"Okay, I'll go."

Eloise didn't hesitate any longer and said yes in one breath before his words fell.

The two of them said goodbye at the entrance of the hospital, and before they left Edgar didn't forget to remind, "Eloise, I'll pick you up when the time comes."

"Good."

Eloise answered and got into the car that had been waiting in front of the hospital.

Back at the Rogers family, it was also late and Hector's mother and others had gone to bed.

Eloise went straight to her bedroom, showered and then dutifully burrowed into Hector's arms.

She told him exactly what had happened at the hospital.

This includes her promise to Edgar to take her mother's place at Master Khan's birthday banquet in a few days' time.

"Hector, would it be a bad idea for me to take the liberty of saying yes like that?"

Eloise lowered her eyes and rubbed her cheek against Hector's chest, her voice a little muffled, "I just thought that I couldn't leave my mother with regrets later, but I made such a decision in private ..." "No, you go for it, it's for Mum's sake, isn't it?"

Hector put his arm around Eloise and soothed her softly.

As he put Eloise to bed, Hector couldn't help but ponder.

Edgar's bearing is extraordinary, and his dress and demeanour are not like those of an ordinary person.

Coupled with Maryam's elopement back then, Hector had to think more.

After all, if the Khan family were not so prominent, how could they have forcefully blocked Maryam and Josh 's relationship, forcing Maryam to take this step to elope?

It was just that he knew, and even knew, almost all of the prominent Fang families in the country.

But the only family he hadn't heard of was the Khan family, where Eloise's grandfather lived.

Could it be that a lot has happened in the time he has been out of the country?

Thinking about it, Hector couldn't sleep either.

He got out of bed gently, not forgetting to tuck her in before he left, and dropped another light kiss on her forehead.

Only then did he gently unscrew the door of the room and walk straight to the still-lit study.

Rupert was still up late dealing with the company, a greenish black under his eyes.

"Rupert."

Hector pushed open the study door and walked over to the desk, rapping his knuckles on the tabletop.

Rupert, who was dozing off, woke up with a start, "Brother? Why did you come to the study at night to scare me?"

Rupert sat up disgruntled and muttered a complaint about him.

Not taking his brother's complaints to heart, Hector got right to the point and asked, "Are there any large families in the country with the surname Fang who have not had any dealings with our family in recent years?" Rupert sniffed and frowned in thought.

He did know a lot about the company after taking over and Hector wasn't wrong to ask him about it.

"It seems, it seems like there is."

He sorted out his wording and answered succinctly, "There is a Khan family that has been very active these past two years, the Kyoto side."

Looking at Hector's expressionless cheeks, he sighed darkly and simply introduced himself carefully.
