The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1006 If Only She Were Here

Neera thought Mariah did not look too good. She needs to change her clothes, and it would be best to go to the hospital for a check-up.

Upon arriving at that thought, she decided to see her good deed through to the end.

“All right. I’ll come with you, but your clothes are all wet, and you’ll be bound to catch a cold. Let’s go to the hospital for a check-up first before going home, okay?”

“Home?”

Mariah was overjoyed. Her eyes were brimming with tears as she regarded Neera. “Will you come home with me, baby girl?”

Neera smiled. “Mmm. Come on.”

Only then did the old woman rise to her feet. Still tightly holding Neera’s hand, she followed closely behind.

The three members of the Park family heaved a sigh of relief, yet they could not help feeling a pang of sadness.

Before long, the group left Grandview Park and arrived at the hospital.

Throughout the entire check-up, the old woman refused to let go of Neera’s hand no matter how the doctor implored her, not even when she was changing out of her wet clothes.

Helpless, Neera had no choice but to wait along patiently.

Moreover, for reasons she could not explain, she could not bear to cause Mariah any more sorrow upon seeing her this way.

Fortunately, Mariah was not seriously ill; she only needed to stay in the hospital for a couple of days to recuperate.
