Chapter 623

Koen Gage

Sensing her emotions, Matteo spoke gently, “Those things won’t happen again, and the culprit is in the
hands of the police now. Aisy, don’t dwell on the past.”

“Matteo, I’m not afraid. What’s done by night appears by day. Once you commit a mistake, you’ll be
thrown into jail,” Ainsley said.

As they drove out of Myrtle Street, Ainsley felt much better.

“Aisy, did you hire a detective?” Matteo thought for a long time before deciding to ask.

“How did you know?” Ainsley was somewhat puzzled. She had not told Matteo about it yet.

Matteo sold Manuel out without hesitation. “Manuel told me. He approached me and asked why you
hired a detective, but I didn’t tell him anything.”

Ainsley furrowed her brows, and her face turned dark. “Matteo, if he approaches you again, tell him it’s
none of his business!”

As New Year was around the corner, many people were getting ready to return home after a year of
working in a foreign land.

For the wealthy, it was a different scene altogether. Families with some money would use this holiday
as an excuse to go on a shopping spree to welcome the new year, which was also deemed auspicious.

As usual, Manuel delegated the shopping tasks to his assistant.

However, a crucial person was missing from the plan.



Usually, after the assistant had finalized the list, he would show it to Koen for approval before
proceeding.

Now, the assistant sighed as he looked at the printed list. He silently prayed for Koen, hoping that a
miracle would happen this year.

After finishing his work, Manuel went to pick up Serina, and together they headed to the hospital.

His thinking was simple. He couldn’t let his grandfather spend the festive season alone in the hospital.

The closer they got to the hospital, the heavier their hearts became.

Especially Serina, who was young and had always been doted on by Koen.

Since Koen had fallen into a coma, she began folding paper cranes. Now, she had already filled
dozens of wishing bottles.

“Manuel, Grandpa will wake up, right?” Serina choked as she spoke.

Concentrated on driving, Manuel kept silent for a few seconds before saying, “He will.’

Serina obediently stopped talking and turned her head aside to look out the window at the scenery that
quickly passed by. Her tears gradually blurred her eyes.

The designated caretaker in the hospital led the two to the ward. She looked at Koen on the hospital
bed and said, “He ate more than usual today, but nothing much has changed.”

Manuel nodded and looked at the heart monitor, which showed a stable line going up and down.

Serina had already sat by the bedside, holding Koen’s hand and affectionately rubbing it against her
face. She began to tell him the trivial things that had happened recently.



Manuel stood quietly nearby, watching them. After a while, he took a monetary gift from somewhere
and handed it to the caretaker. “Here’s a monetary gift for New Year. You’ve worked hard all this while.”

The caretaker hurriedly took a step back and waved her hand repeatedly. “Mr. Gage, your assistant
already gave me a rewarding monetary gift a few days ago. I can’t accept this anymore.”

Manuel didn’t bother talking nonsense and directly tossed the gift to her before saying, “That’s a
present from him. It doesn’t conflict with mine. Take it.”

The caretaker fumbled to catch the envelope and bowed earnestly. “Thank you, Mr. Manuel. I will take
even better care of Mr. Gage.”

Manuel nodded and shifted his gaze back to Serina and Koen. “You can leave first. I’ll take care of
Grandpa here today.”

The caretaker left sensibly.

“Grandpa, you know what? Lily told me yesterday that her grandfather is about to turn seventy, and she
invited me to his birthday banquet. Grandpa, when will you wake up? I’m all grown up now, and I can
help you organize a birthday party…”

As Serina spoke, tears streamed down her face.

Although it hurt Manuel too, he walked up behind her and gently patted her shoulder.

Suddenly, Koen’s fingers moved, and Manuel noticed it with his sharp eyes.

He instantly held his breath, not daring to make a sound. He was afraid that it was just his imagination.

Fortunately, not long after, Koen’s fingers moved again.



Manuel even forgot that there was a call button. He rushed out of the ward and shouted, “Doctor,
doctor, come quickly!”

It took a second for Serina to realize what was happening. She looked at Koen on the hospital bed.

As her heart raced and threatened to burst out of her chest, Koen slowly opened his eyes.

Was Koen awake?

Serina stared at the Koen in disbelief, not daring to blink.

Trembling, she raised her hand and covered her mouth. She used all her strength to hold back the
choking sensation in her throat.

Despite her efforts, tears had already covered her pretty face and continued to flow.

Lost in the miraculous moment, she didn’t notice anything wrong with Koen.

From the moment Koen opened his eyes until now, he hadn’t moved a muscle, and his pupils hadn’t
even shifted.

Manuel rushed over with the doctor. Although it was only a few steps, he was covered in sweat.

Seeing others arrive, Serina hurriedly wiped away her tears and gave up her seat. She kept her eyes
fixed on Koen.

The doctor carefully and thoroughly examined Koen once again.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet and solemn.

After about ten minutes, the doctor stood up and removed the stethoscope from his ear.



Looking at the nervous faces of Manuel and Serina, who were standing on either side of the bed, the
doctor carefully chose his words and said, “Mr.

Gage’s body has recovered quite well, but he has not completely recovered yet.”

Hearing his words, Manuel said politely, “Doctor, just speak your mind. We can handle it.”

The doctor nodded and explained the examination results in more detail, “In simple terms, Mr. Gage’s
body has partially regained function. Although he can open his eyes, his brain nerves are not fully
cleared, so he cannot communicate with you normally for now.”

Serina leaned forward eagerly and asked, “Can Grandpa hear us talking?”

“No one can say for sure now. The sensory connections in the nerves are complex and dense, so it is
difficult to determine whether his hearing has fully recovered,” the doctor replied.

“Thank you.”

After the doctor left, Manuel sent Serina back to her ward. “Rest well, and don’t wander around.”

Serina strongly protested. “Manuel, it’s just a minor injury. You don’t have to be so cautious.” Moreover,
she just wanted to visit Miles more often.

Of course, Manuel knew what she was thinking. “Miles is fine. You need to take good care of your body
first. Once you’ve completely recovered, I’ll let you go see him.”

Serina walked up to Manuel and began to act cute. ‘Manuel, why don’t you arrange for me and Miles to
stay in the same ward so I don’t have to sneak out?”

Seeing Manuel ignoring her, she added, “How about the ward next door?”
