Chapter 2379

Ivy was about to answer the door for Alyssa, but she forgot she had left her crutches by the entryway.

As she stood up abruptly, she lost her balance and tumbled to the floor, the thud echoing noisily in the silent night, causing Alyssa’s heart to leap into her throat.

Ivy’s knee had taken a hard knock on the floor. After kneeling in a daze for a few seconds, she gathered herself and pushed up to stand.

“Granny, I’m alright, just a little bump. I’ll be there to open the door for you in a jiffy.”

Ivy struggled to her feet, using the wall for support as she opened the door.

Alyssa saw her disheveled hair and her limping stance and felt a lump form in her throat.
