Misunderstanding Their Relationship
The atmosphere in the ward was strange. The three of them looked at one another and realized a problem almost at the same time.
Oliver couldn't remember anyone, he just recognized Rose as his daughter, Henrietta.
"Rietta, I'm so sorry for you. You've been wandering outside for the past 20 years. Now you've finally returned home. In the future, I'll protect you when you're by my side."
Oliver held Rose's hand. His old voice filled with firm strength.
"Rietta, can you call me Daddy? Do you refuse to call me because you're still angry with me? I haven't looked for you in the past 20 years, instead, I treat others as my daughter. Don't worry, you're back. You're the true heiress to the Young family, she's not. Can you forgive me?"
He looked at Rose sincerely. It seemed that he was expecting her reaction. Rose looked at Miles and Anastasia for help. Anastasia frowned and looked at her with a bit of hostility.
She suddenly raised a smile and stepped forward to separate Rose from Oliver. Then, she held Oliver's hand concernedly.
"She's not Rietta. Look at me ..."
She and Rose had very similar eyes. She knew that the reason why she was chosen by Oliver to be raised as his granddaughter of the Young family was because her eyes looked similar to his daughter, Henrietta.
However, it was just the eyes. Since they only had similar eyes, why did Oliver mistakenly identify Rose as Henrietta? She could be Henrietta too.
Nevertheless, Oliver furrowed his brows as he looked at her.
"Who are you?" he asked.
The confusion on his face was real as if there was no trace of Anastasia in his memory. Anastasia's heart felt as if it was being pulled hard by a hand, and there was a thud.
In a panic, she said urgently, "I ..."
Before she could finish speaking, Oliver broke away from her hand. He looked at Rose firmly.
"She's Rietta, my daughter. I don't care who you are, no matter what your
purpose is, you can't have any bad thoughts on her. She's my daughter!"

Anastasia was stunned. She could feel his hostility and defensiveness. Suddenly, she remembered something and understood in her heart.
"You all go out, Rietta stays," Oliver said.
Rose looked at Miles. She was worried that he would misunderstand. She
wanted to tell him that no matter what the situation was, she did not covet him or the Young family in the slightest.
She was also caught off guard when Oliver mistook her as his daughter. Miles naturally understood her. Although he didn't say anything, he gave her a comforting look before walking out of the ward.
The door to the ward was then closed. Outside the ward, Miles's face was solemn. The only worry in his heart right now was Oliver's health condition. However, Anastasia was different.
"Miles, aren't you sad? In the end, he can't remember me or you.
"His memory may still be about when Henrietta returned to the Young family. That time he believed our aunt, which resulted in Henrietta leaving home again. This time, he only has Henrietta in his heart. This has been a lifelong knot for him. Hence, he has to correct his previous mistakes this time."
However, why did it have to be Rose? She couldn't figure it out. She had always existed as a substitute for Henrietta because her eyes looked like hers.
How she hoped that in this situation, she would be the one being mistaken as Henrietta.
She clenched her fists while turning around. Through the glass window on the door, she saw Oliver look at Rose with a look of fatherly love on his face in the
Misur
ward. The jealousy in her heart grew wildly.
It seemed that she might be unable to control herself if she took one more look. She withdrew her gaze and strode out of the hospital.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

In the ward, Rose was still panicking. Oliver was calling her Rietta over and over. She knew that she was the one he was calling, but she couldn't bear the disappointment on his expectant face. However, she felt weird to call him daddy. Oliver kept holding her hand and telling her some interesting things about Henrietta before she went missing when she was a child.
His words were full of his longing and guilt for Henrietta after she decided to leave home again. He had forgotten that memory, but the guilt and longing in his heart did not diminish at all.
Rose listened carefully and agreed. She couldn't help but wonder what Henrietta looked like except that her eyes were somewhat similar to hers.
If Henrietta had never been lost when she was a child, or if nothing happened that made her decide to leave home again, what kind of happy life would she
have had with Oliver's love?
The more she thought about it, the more curious she became about her. After some time, Oliver finally felt tired. However, he refused to let go of her hand. "Rietta, don't leave me," he pleaded.
Rose's heart trembled slightly. She stroked his rugged hand soothingly and said, "You can sleep peacefully. I'll never leave."
For the next day and night, Rose stayed with Oliver. Even if Miles was not in the ward, she had never left the hospital. When he occasionally came in to visit Oliver, he would be surprised to see him.
He asked Rose several times who he was. Rose didn't know how to introduce the grandson he raised by himself to him. After hesitating several times, Oliver stopped asking.
