Julien's furrowed brows flattened out. "It's alright. I didn't tell Felicia to wake you up because I think you need more rest."
Only by having a good rest would his grandma recover quicker.
However, she had been resting for a little too long.
Julien had known that his grandma had a habit of taking a nap at lunchtime. This was a habit that she got since she was young. This habit had been kept for decades.
Not only that, his grandma would only rest for two hours and that would be from one o'clock in the afternoon to three o'clock. She would take a nap and wake up at the exact times.
However, this time the Old Madam had been asleep for a total of four hours.
Being asleep for longer might be a good thing at times, but it could also be a bad thing at times as well, especially for someone who was quite old like the Old Madam.
Sleeping for too long would cause her body function to become weaker and the time that she was awake would decrease.
With that thought in mind, Julien pursed his lips and looked at the top of his grandma's head.
He looked at her grey hair and felt his heart ache.
At that moment, he realized that his grandma was really getting old.
"Felicia." Julien moved his gaze and looked at Felicia, who was holding the Old Madam.
When Felicia heard that Julien was calling her name, she immediately raised her head and asked, "What can I do for you, Mr. Julien?"
"Is it just today that Grandma has been sleeping for this long, or has it been going on for a while?" Julien tightened his grip around his grandma's hand as he asked this question.
Felicia seemed to know why Julien asked this question. She looked at the Old Madam and sadness appeared in her eyes.
The Old Madam also knew what the two of them were talking about, but still kept a smile on her face. "It's alright, Felicia. If Julien wants to know, then tell him."
"Old Madam..."
"Julien is going to find out sooner or later. It's alright, tell him." The Old Madam patted the back of Felicia's hand.
Felicia opened her mouth and then nodded whilst sobbing. "Alright, I'll tell him. Mr. Julien, the Old Madam has been sleeping longer and longer recently. However, it's intermittent. She would sleep this long every two or three days. On other days, she would only sleep for two hours during the day, just like before."
After hearing those words, Julien felt a little relieved.
Although his grandma had been sleeping for longer and longer, it still wasn't happening every day.
This meant that the Old Madam's body hadn't reached the worst state.
"Grandma, you have to go to the sanatorium I told you about last time."
When the Old Madam was hospitalized last time, Finn told Julien that the Old Madam only had two years to live.
