Unsurprisingly, it was the first time Beatrice and Cedric came across the secret room as well, but they managed to piece things together nonetheless.
They exchanged glances and sighed. They did not answer Sunny as they did not know how to answer him.
It was not like they could tell him that his father secretly built a room behind the bookshelf because he did not want to sleep in the same bed as his wife, could they?
They finally understood that over the years, their son had been sleeping in a different bed with the wife they forced him to marry.
Sunny decided not to probe further when he did not get any answers from his grandparents. Instead, he stared thoughtfully at the secret room.
The servants quickly brought the medicine and water to Maxwell. After forcing some water down his throat, Maxwell choked, coughed, and opened his eyes.
Beatrice and Cedric sighed in relief when they saw him waking up.
Beatrice stepped forward and held his hand.
"Maxwell, you're finally awake! You nearly scared me and your father to death! What's wrong with you? Why did you shut yourself up in that dark room and drink so much?"
Maxwell tried to focus his eyes as he looked at Beatrice. After that, he looked at the people around him who were staring at him and frowned.
"I'm fine. All of you can get out now!"
"How can you still say you're fine when you're not? Look at how pale your face is! You drank so much and didn't even eat a bite, right? Do you know that drinking can kill you?" exclaimed Beatrice with distress. Maxwell sat up and patted her hand. "Mom, I'm fine. Don't worry about me."
Beatrice's eyes were red. She was so worried that she was on the verge of tears.
After Cedric saw that his son woke up and was fine, he became angry. "You still say everything is fine? You're a grown man, yet you still have no sense of propriety in doing things! Is this how you set an example for your children? Our family will go to ruins if Lucas and Sunny follow in your footsteps!"
Maxwell looked at his father with annoyance. He did not respond or listen to him.
Beatrice turned to Cedric and said, "That's enough! Maxwell has just woken up, so he can't think clearly yet."
Cedric scoffed, but he made no further comments.
