Chapter 12 – Old Mrs. Horton

The door to the room was open.

Lewis looked at Old Mrs. Horton and found her complexion healthy.

After that, he took a careful look around.

The room was neat and clean, and the small two-bedroom apartment was very cozy. The table was set with four dishes of light, nutritious, and well-balanced food which was suitable for the elderly.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom. Was someone taking a shower?

There was a frosted glass door, where a graceful silhouette of a young woman could be faintly seen.

Lewis recoiled, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

The family doctor wanted to enter the room but was stopped by him. Lewis steered sideways to block the doctor’s view, “Give me the equipment and wait in the car.”

The family doctor nodded and left, thoughtfully closing the door.

Lewis quickly measured Old Mrs. Horton’s blood pressure, blood sugar, and heart rate. Perhaps it was because she had had a good sleep the night before, all the readings were incredibly healthy.

The old lady said proudly, “My granddaughter-in-law takes really good care of me!”

Seeing is believing, and Lewis was at last relieved.

His gaze moved to the direction of the bathroom again, then he quickly collected his equipment. “Since you are alright, I’ll leave now.”

The old lady was startled. “Aren’t you going to have dinner here? The food made by my granddaughter-in-law is delicious!”

“It’s not very appropriate for me to stay.”

Lewis put down the medical equipment. “I’ll leave it here.”

The old lady thought for a while. “Take it. My granddaughter-in-law won’t know how to use it. I don’t want Dr. Frank to come here. I want you to come to check on me every day!”

She thought that if her grandson came over every day, wouldn’t that mean he could see his wife every day? After nurturing some feelings between them, they could end their separation status.

The old lady believed that she might have the prospect of having a great-grandson.
