Shortly after Mr. Lee went upstairs, Shirley came downstairs.

Allie was reading a magazine on the sofa. Hearing that sound, she rose up promptly and said, “Hey, mom.”

“Oh, you scared me!” Shirley gasped and complained.

Seeing there was nothing in her mother’s hands, Allie felt frightened.

Mr. Lee showed the revised will to Frank in the study and asked, “If you think this is okay, just sign here.”

“Okay, I don’t see any problems.”

“Good. Then I’ll have your daughter sign it later.”

Frank glanced aside at the bowl and said, “No, not now. You can just let her sign it this weekend.”

“Okay.”

After Mr. Lee left, Frank lifted the small bowl in his hand. There was chicken soup and maybe some other stuff in the bowl. Frank

smiled bitterly to himself and then drank all of the soup in one gulp.

office.

wonderful woman Anna is? God, I think you’re really insane!”

Peter slapped the table and continued with regret and anger, “No wonder Matthew has been so restless these days. You still wanted

to hide it from me, don’t you?”

Wayne didn’t say a word. After Peter scolded him, he said calmly, “Okay, Grandpa. This is my own business, and you might have to
