Chapter 113

“President Fuller called me earlier, so I came to visit,” Sonia answered.

Rose acted as if she was exasperated and grunted, “Hmph! That b*stard! Didn’t I tell him not to inform you?!”

“Grandma.” Sonia touched Rose’s hand in disappointment and asked, “Why didn’t you want me to know? Is it because you don’t like me?”

“No. Of course not.” Rose ruffled Sonia’s hair as she added, “I just didn’t want to worry you.”

“However, if you don’t tell me, I would be even more worried when I learn about it later and I would never forgive myself for not learning it any sooner.” Sonia gently held the old lady’s hand. “Promise me, Grandma. You must never keep me in the dark if something like this ever happens again.”

 

“I agree with Sonia since she has a point.” Mary expressed her agreement with Sonia’s words when she was done arranging the flowers in the vase.

Upon hearing what the ladies said, Rose grinned from ear to ear. “Alright. Alright, I promise I’ll tell you everything.”

 

“That’s more like it.” Sonia responded with a chuckle.

“I’m going to follow up with the doctor about your condition, Old Mrs. Fuller. So, perhaps I shall leave you and Sonia to it,” Mary said as she rubbed her hands.

“Alright, go ahead.” Rose nodded.

As soon as Mary left, Rose seized Sonia’s hand and asked, “Tell me: how have you been lately, Sonia?”

“Alright,” Sonia replied. Then, she proceeded to share with Rose the recent happenings while only mentioning the pleasant ones. As she refused to worry Rose, she didn’t bring up a single word about the detrimental politics against the Gray Family.

A few moments later, they heard laughter outside the ward, which Sonia quickly recognized to be Tina and Jean.
