Millie’s pupils dilated with worry. She took a step forward, planning to massage Claudia’s chest to calm her down. However, Freyja beat her into it.
Millie stepped back, but her concern for the older woman’s health remained.

Soon, Claudia started coughing, still finding it hard to breathe because of too much anger. Millie stepped forward again. The old woman was too worked up. She had to calm down.
“Grandma, he’s right. | offered to help out around the house to get sexercise. It keepshealthy, and it increases my appetite. That’s why | eat a lot these days. In fact, this is the healthiest I’ve ever felt,” Millie declared as she brought a hand to Claudia’s chest.
Still fuming, Claudia turned to Millie and gave her a doubtful look. She then sighed. “You're lying to me, too.”
“Im now, Grandma. It’s the truth. Didn’t you notice that I’d gained sweight since the last twe met at the birthday party? Before, | could barely manage a few bites, but now | can eat much more.”
While she was talking, Millie spread her arms exaggeratedly to emphasize how much her appetite had increased. Everyone looked at her incredulously. Claudia took a good long look at Millie. The younger woman did not gain weight at all. If anything, she just got thinner.
“You really know how to calmdown. Alright, then. As long as you two are getting along with each other, | won’t meddle in your relationship. You can go now, Millie, Marcus. | need to talk to Leon and Lois about something.”
Claudia glanced at Loie’s wrist. Her relationship with Leon was what had been worrying the old woman more than anything lately.

Marcus had a myriad of thoughts in his mind. He turned to Millie, wanting to say something to her. Before he could do so, however, Millie pulled out her phone, walked to the window, and dialled a number.
“Doctor, | hate to be a bother, especially this late at night, but | have something to ask you. You toldthat the last nof the doctor who bought medicine for my grandmother from abroad was Thomas. | thought you were referring to Leon Thomas. | know now that it’s not him, so who did it? | really want to thank him.
Can you tellwho he is? | want to repay him, too.” “So, you don’t want to tell me. Fine, I'll try to figure it out on my own.”
Millie turned around to look at Marcus’ towering figure and handsface.
