Ignatius Leclair brought Delphine into the hospital room, placing the freshly washed fruit he had brought from home on the old man's bedside table. Seeing the little old man curled up with his back to them, he chuckled, "Get up and eat. If you keep fussing, even Benjamin will laugh at you."
"Benjamin is back?" The old man sat up quickly at the mention of Benjamin, but upon realizing it was just the two of them and not the two beloved little ones, his smile immediately faded.
"When are you bringing back Benjamin and Nicholas? They've been gone for so long," the old man said gloomily.
"I'll have Yeats Howard bring them back tomorrow." Ignatius said in a low voice, comforting the old man. Things in the Southeast Asian region were mostly resolved now, and he also missed those two little rascals.
"Good, good, good." The old man nodded joyfully, though his eyes were still red.
Seeing this, Delphine softly said, "I'll step outside for some air."
