The atmosphere in the hospital is never very good - Dick doesn't like coming to the hospital, because most of the time, when he comes to the hospital, only one thing will happen - that is, his players are injured.
I have to be hospitalized...
But this time, he might have to say goodbye to an old man whom he had only met once, and today, Dick only knew the identity of this old man.
Dick stood there, feeling the silent atmosphere around him. After coming in, Charlotte whispered a few words to her family and found out that Prince Rainier hadn't woken up yet, and she didn't know if he could wake up.
- In short, it is very dangerous now. Even if he wakes up, he may lose the ability to move - after all, Rainier is not young anymore. He fought in the war when he was young, and his body is quite exhausted. Although he usually looks very strong.
, but once you get sick, you may be in bad shape.
After getting the answer, Charlotte returned to Dick's side, still leaning on Dick. The looks in the eyes of other members of the Monaco royal family made Dick feel a little embarrassed, but he soon calmed down - it doesn't matter whether you are a royal family or not.
Yes, I am also the top head coach in Europe, my dear, and I am also popular with thousands of fans. Even if I have a princess...well, it seems not even close, but never mind!
However, other members of the Monaco royal family just looked a little weird and didn't say anything. Andre and Pierre came over to say hello to Dick, while Charlotte's aunt Stephanie looked at her with interest.
Dick - beside her is her second husband, Daniel, her former bodyguard.
In the deathly silence, everyone was waiting, even Prince Albert. It was not until two o'clock in the morning that the chief doctor came out of the operating room.
"The patient is awake..."
The attending doctor's face showed fatigue that could not be concealed, but his words cheered everyone up.
However, the next words made the atmosphere at the scene reach a freezing point: "But you must be prepared... Although you are awake, the situation is very bad. Maybe at any time..."
He did not finish his words, but everyone knew what he meant. The only elder of the Monaco royal family would probably go to see God.
The doctor quickly raised his head: "The patient wants to see you... Your Highness Albert, please be gentle when you go in."
Prince Albert nodded heavily, and then slowly walked into the operating room.
Dick sighed. Although he had no feelings for Prince Rainier, this scene reminded him of the time when Old Hill passed away - after rebirth, he might witness the death of a second person. This
Dick's heart was filled with uncertainty and a touch of sadness.
"Damn it, the protagonists in other competitive books have never seen dead people. Why do I have to witness this situation? It's so fucked..." Dick complained in his heart.
Not long after entering, Prince Albert walked out of the operating room, and then other members of the Monaco royal family began to enter the operating room one by one. Everyone knew that this was basically equivalent to listening to Prince Rainier's last words.
After Andre and Pierre came out, Andre whispered to Charlotte: "Sister... Grandpa wants you to go in with Dick."
Dick glanced at Andre in surprise. He was not surprised why Rainier knew that he was coming. Others could just mention this kind of thing casually, but those who went to listen to the last words were all direct blood relatives of the Monaco royal family.
In other words, these people are all qualified to succeed the throne. What's going on if I go as an outsider?
But Charlotte didn't seem surprised at all. She directly took Dick's hand and led him into the operating room.
After walking into the operating room, what Dick saw was an extremely weak old man lying on the operating table.
No matter he was the Prince of Monaco or Charlotte's grandfather, no matter what his identity was, at this time, what Dick saw was just an old man who was about to enter heaven.
Charlotte walked over quietly, then gently grabbed Rainier's hand, and placed the old man's thin hand against her smooth cheek.
"Grandpa, I'm back."
"It's good to see you again... Dick here too? He's a great fella and I'd be delighted if this was your choice."
"He's here, right next to him," Charlotte said softly.
Rainier's eyes moved, and then he saw Dick.
"Young man, I'm glad you're here... I don't know what you think, but Charlotte likes to be by your side. This is also a fact. We, the princesses of the Monaco royal family, will always suffer some emotional setbacks
, the only thing I hope is that she can live happily." Rainier said softly.
"...Old sir." Dick decided to use this title: "I haven't seen my own heart clearly yet, but I must admit one thing, that is, when Charlotte is by my side, I do
I will feel happy no matter what. I am not a person who knows how to manage feelings, but I can guarantee one thing, I will not hurt her."
"That's enough." Rainier laughed happily: "My situation is very bad, Charlotte. Your uncle will be the prince next. You can do whatever you want. It's your own way.
Come and go. Being born into a royal family is an honor, but you will also lose some happiness that ordinary people can easily get. My little baby, I don’t want you to feel unhappy, understand? I consider myself a qualified monarch.
, but the marriage of your mother, your uncle and your aunt always gives me a headache. The relationships of their generation are tragedies in many aspects. I hope that there will be no more tragedies in your life and relationships."
After chatting with Charlotte for a long time, what Dick saw at this time was not a lonely king, but a nagging old man who was worried about his descendants. Slowly, Rainier's voice gradually became clearer.
As he grew younger, the son of an illegitimate daughter participated in World War II, married a world-famous Oscar-winning actress, and made Monte Carlo truly one of the three major gambling cities in the world. Reclamation increased Monaco’s land area by five points.
One of the princes, who promoted industrialization and had countless achievements, breathed his last next to his beloved granddaughter.
When tears streamed down Charlotte's cheeks, all other members of the Monaco royal family rushed into the operating room to bid farewell to their only elder!
The funeral of the leader of a country is of course indispensable. Dick must stay with Charlotte during this period. He does not plan to coach in the last round of the league. He has already taken leave anyway - the final of the Italian Cup is
It will be carried out over two days, June 13th and 16th. By then, everything will probably be resolved.
After Rainier's funeral, there was Albert's enthronement ceremony. The Principality of Monaco is a small country, but no matter how small it is, the ascension of the king of a country cannot be shabby. There are many and sufficient procedures.
It shows that this is a royal family with a long history...
Charlotte was naturally very busy, so Dick stayed with Charlotte all day long, and even accompanied her to attend Rainier's funeral. At this time, the outside world also knew that he had accompanied Charlotte to the funeral that day.
It was Dick who was in the hospital, and it was no news that Dick was absent from the last round of Serie A - everyone began to sigh, how did Dick get mixed up with the Monaco royal family? He has been to Spain and
Germany, but I have never coached in France...
Some tabloids even seriously believe that Dick may have accepted the high salary of Monaco Club, and the Monaco royal family is also preparing to acquire the shares of Monaco Club. Now that the two powers have joined forces, Monaco Club will be at the top of Europe just around the corner!
However, most knowledgeable people scoffed at this news - Dick is now doing well in Inter Milan, how much salary can Monaco offer to tempt him? You must know that the exposure rate of Ligue 1 is much worse than that of Serie A, unless
Dick is planning to retire. At the same time, after Monaco reached the Champions League final in the 2030 season, because their tax rate was calculated based on the local tax rate in Monaco, they attracted a large number of famous players to join, which caused other French Ligue 1 players to join.
The club was dissatisfied. After protests from other clubs, Monaco also had to pay taxes according to French tax rates. Since then, Monaco has declined immediately. Under such circumstances, even if the Monaco royal family takes over the Monaco club, they will have to make huge investments.
However, although the Monaco royal family is very rich, they have never behaved like a nouveau riche. What's more, it is a joke to do such a thing when the prince just passed away.
Precisely because they knew this was impossible, all the media began to speculate on why Dick appeared at Rainier's funeral, whether it was sports media or gossip weekly.
"Di, I'm very busy during this period, so I didn't have time to entertain you. I hope you don't mind."
Sitting in front of Dick was the current Prince of Monaco, Albert II.
Dick shrugged his shoulders: "I wouldn't mind...in fact, it's an honor for me to be able to participate among you."
Albert laughed: "I think you should know something... To be honest, our royal family is not picky about the partners we associate with. Even if the prince objects, it cannot change something. Otherwise, I
My sister will not still marry that bastard despite the collective opposition of my father and mother."
Dick knew about this, and he also made up for a lot of things during this time - Charlotte's mother Caroline's first husband was an insurance agent named Philip Junod, but this guy pursued Caroline but failed.
Just because he made a bet with his friends that he could catch up with Princess Caroline. Poor Princess Caroline chose to divorce after two years of marriage, and only gave birth to Andrea Charlotte Piper after marrying her second husband.
There are three brothers and sisters in El, but their second husband died in a speedboat accident.
The little princess Stephanie married a divorced bodyguard after changing her boyfriend several times, which proves that the Monaco royal family is still very tolerant in this regard.
"The key is, I want to know what you think. I know your information very well. You used to be a very famous playboy, but in the past six months, you have basically stopped going to nightclubs and the like... because
Charlotte's reason?" Albert asked Dick.
"I don't know how to answer you... Actually, there is no ambiguity between Charlotte and I. Yes, I was a famous playboy before, but in fact, I am very blank emotionally.
Alone. I don’t know how I feel about Charlotte now. I am always happy when she is by my side, but is this love? I don’t know.” Dick answered very frankly, this
He had thought about the question for a long time, but could only come up with this answer.
Albert looked at Dick and said nothing for a long time.
