Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1290 Last Words

Sadie walked into the room, the strong smell of medicine hitting her nose, and heard Percy's voice. "Mr. Henry, Sadie's here. Don't worry, I'll go get her." Percy rushed out and, in his hurry, bumped right into Sadie, spilling a bowl of hot medicine all over her.

Luckily, it was cold, and Sadie had on enough layers to avoid getting burned.

Still, some of the medicine splashed on her hand, making it turn red instantly.

"How could you be so careless?" Paula scolded.

"I'm so sorry, Sadie," Percy apologized quickly. "Are you okay? I'll get you some ointment."

"It's fine," Sadie said softly, hiding her hand behind her back. "Where's Hubert?"

"He's in bed," Percy replied. "I'll take you to him."

"Okay." Sadie nodded and walked into the room. She saw Hubert lying in bed, squinting at the door with a hopeful look on his aged face. Sadie couldn't hold back her tears.

"Mr. Henry, Sadie's here to see you," Paula said gently.

"Okay," Hubert muttered, trying to sit up but too weak to manage it.

Percy and Paula quickly helped him sit up and gave him some medicine, which seemed to help a bit.

Sadie sat by the bed, wiping the medicine from his mouth with a cloth, and said guiltily, "Hubert, I'm so sorry. If it weren't for following me around, you wouldn't have gotten sick."

"Sadie, it's not your fault," Hubert smiled faintly. "I'm 99 years old this year. Living this long is already quite something. As people age, their bodies deteriorate. It's inevitable." "If you hadn't followed me abroad, you could have lived to 200," Sadie choked up.

Hubert couldn't help but laugh. "Sadie, 200 years old? That would be something, wouldn't it?"

"Of course not." He also amused Sadie.

"Don't overthink it," Hubert patted her hand to comfort her. "Although I faced many hardships and difficulties in the first half of my life, the second half has been quite pleasant. That's because I met a good friend, Edmond, who helped me a lot and made my life comfortable. When he had an accident, I was very regretful, hating myself for not being able to do anything for him. Later, when you came to find me, I was very happy."

Hubert took a deep breath and said weakly, "I thought, at least, I could repay some of the kindness I owed Edmond. So, being able to do something for you makes me very happy."

"Thank you," Sadie said, choking up, with tears welling up in her eyes.

"Fortunately, both you and Mia have recovered. Now I have no worries. As long as you all are well, I can be at peace," Hubert said with deep emotion. "If possible, bring the children to see me. I'm afraid I won't be able to see them if we wait too long."

"Tomorrow, I'll bring the children to see you tomorrow," Sadie immediately replied and arranged. "Do you have any other wishes?"

"One more wish: I want to go back to Avalis and spend my last days quietly," Hubert sighed. "But I'm afraid my body can't even handle a flight."

"Leave it to me. I'll arrange it." As soon as Sadie finished speaking, Annika immediately went to arrange a medical plane.

"There's one more thing I need to ask of you." Hubert weakly uttered as he pointed at Paula and Percy, "They've been learning from me since their twenties, focused on studying medicine, and haven't read much or seen the outside world. I'm afraid that after I'm gone, they'll be helpless."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of them for you," Sadie promised immediately. "As long as I'm here, no one can bully them."
