Chapter 27 Kylie felt her heart race with worry for Noreen as she quickly asked , What did the doctor say ? She knew all about Noreens ongoing heart issues , the bypass surgeries , and the frequent hospital visits .
68 The famous doctors had given Noreen a grim prognosis only about three years left .
That was why Trevor had agreed to a secret three year marriage pact with her .
Grants eyes were slightly red as he said .
The doctor said Mrs.
Walters situation isnt good .
They her joy in her remaining days .
You know , a miracle might happen e family can bring As she stood at the door , Kylies throat felt dry as she peered into the room .
Noreen looked exhausted , a far cry from her usual warm and cheerful self , which tugged at Kylies heart .
Trevor quietly observed Kylie , noticing the genuine concern in her eyes .
Despite his earlier reservations about her , he still couldnt deny that she truly cared for Noreen .
Grants words struck a chord with Trevor , reminding him that his timing for discussing the end of the agreement was off .
Im not hungry .
Ill wait here for Grandma to wake up , Kylie said , moving to take a seat .
Trevor joined Kylie , and it wasnt long before Noreen stirred awake .
They quickly entered the room .
Noreen looked at them and managed a weak smile .
Did I scare you guys ? How are you feeling now , Grandma ? Should I call the doctor ? Kylies voice was soft , almost like she was soothing a child .
Theres not much those doctors can do .
Ive woken up , so why bother them ? Kylie , dont worry .
Felicia says Im tough and can hang on for a few more years .
By the way , you had a fever yesterday .
Did Trevor take good care of you ? Noreen asked , her gaze shifting to Trevor , as if she would hold him accountable if he hadnt looked after Kylie Trevors eyes were filled with concern .

He even had the family doctor check on me .
Im perfectly fine today , really .
Grandma , dont worry .
Your health is what matters most right now , Kylie replied gently .
At that , Noreens sharp gaze at Trevor softened , and she transformed back into the loving grandmother they knew .
Trevor is a good boy , its only right what hes done .
Grant , can you hand me the item I asked you to bring ? Noreen said , turning to him .
Without hesitation , Grant rummaged .

through his bag and pulled out a jewelry box .
Give it to Kylie , Noreen instructed , and Grant handed the box to Kylie , who accepted it with a puzzled look .
Trevors been too busy to get you a wedding ring , and I couldnt stand for that .
So I got this ring from the auction house for you two to use as your wedding ring , Noreen said , casting a reproachful glance at Trevor She felt it was irresponsible of him .
not to have ordered a wedding ring for Kylie .
Trevor frowned , while Kylie was taken aback and quickly said without opening the box , Grandma , the ring is too precious .
I cant accept it .
A ring worth 30 million dollars was something she couldnt accept , nor did she feel deserving of it .
With her divorce from Trevor scheduled for tomorrow , she didnt even want to keep it for a day .
If anything happened to it , she wouldnt be able to compensate Trevor , Kylie , no matter how precious the ring is , its just a material thing .
Its not more important than a persons happiness , right ? 12:02 Thu , Oct Chapter 27 Take it ; its my gift to you , Put it on and let me see , Noreen said gently .
Kylie felt torn , unsure how to decline , Trevor chimed in .
You should accept Grandmas gift .
I did overlook the wedding thing e turned her head to look at him in surprise .
Her clear eyes showed a hint of astonishment , and her thick eyelashes tered slightly Trevors gaze lingered on her eyes for a moment .
Try the ring on Okay Kylie agreed .
With both Noreen and Trevor encouraging her , she felt there was no reason to refuse .
She though st not to disappoint Noreen at that moment .
She planned to return the ring to Trevor privately later .
As she opened the box , Kylie was captivated by the rings beauty It was no wonder it was called the Ethereal Star .
She believed any woman would be amazed by it , and she was no exception .
The moment she saw the ring on her finger , Kylie felt a newfound sense of worth .
Beautiful ! Kylies hands are already lovely , and now with the ring , they look even better ! Noreen exclaimed .
Trevors s gaze was intense .
Kylies hands were slender , graceful , and flawless , and the Ethereal Star made them appear eve more vibrant .
even Noreen shot Trevor a knowing look .
Kylies hands were made for those shiny stones .
You should get her a few more later .
Grandma , theres no need .
I find it inconvenient to wear rings when Im working ; it would be a waste .
Kylie replied honestly .
When restoring antiques , she couldnt wear any jewelry , not even a watch Noreen smiled warmly .
Those shiny things are just for keeping in the jewelry box .
Looking at them from time to time can lift your spirits .
When I was young , I loved not just diamonds but also emeralds and all sorts of gems .
Once I get discharged .
you should come to my residence .
Kylie , with your flawless skin , those gems will look stunning on you .
By the way , Kylie , do you enjoy studying old things ? Can you tell if antiques are real ? Noreen suddenly asked .
Kylie nodded gently .
Yes , Grandma , I know a bit .
I can tell if most antiques are real .
Do you have something you need help with ? Its not for me ; its for an old friend of mine .
Hes been buying alot of old things these past two years but often ends up with fakes .
He wants to organize his collection and is looking for someone trustworthy to help him , Noreen explained .
Kylie agreed , Sure , Grandma .
When you get discharged and go to see that friend , just let me know , They chatted for a while longer , but soon Noreen grew tired .
As she spoke , her eyes began to flutter closed .
After ensuring Noreen was fast asleep , Kylie and Trevor quietly left the ward .
With Grant and the doctors around , they felt reassured .
They also met with the attending physician to get an update on Noreens condition .
The ride back to Starlit Villa was quiet .
The car was still .
As they pulled up to Starlit Villa and were about to step out , Trevor called out to Kylie .
Hold on a second .
Kylie settled back , looking at him with curiosity .
She had to admit that Trevor was incredibly handsome , naturally exuding au air of confidence and dignity .
