"What's wrong? You're in bad shape. Are you feeling under the weather?" Jennifer looked at Katherine concernedly.

However, the latter shook her head. "I'm fine, Grandma. I guess I didn't sleep well last night."

As soon as she finished her words, Jennifer averted her gaze and looked at Joaquin instantly.

The corner of his lips twitched as he touched his nose. "Why don't you take a nap at home?"

"Hmm. Enjoy your food. Don't worry. I'm alright." Katherine rose to her feet and headed to the room.

She was indeed tired because she did not have a good night's sleep yesterday; the other significant reason was that she was on her period.

Her body tended to run colder than others. When Darren was still around, he even specially prescribed a list of medications for her, which took a few years to see its effect.

However, good times did not last long; the Olsen Family got into trouble when they started to see signs of her recovery.

At that time, Elsie and Darren passed away, and Jennifer fell sick due to the huge blow. Shouldering the massive responsibilities and burdens, Katherine was sent to Fontan—a whole new world to her—by Jorge. It was literally a miracle that she survived until today. She was not in the state of mind to care for her health. These years, she intended to take medications again, but there was no visible effect to it.

After dinner, Joaquin came to the room, and it worried him to see Katherine laying in bed with a pale face. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." She shook her head and wriggled herself into the blanket.

Staring at her, he pondered for a moment before looking for Jennifer outside. "Grandma, I think Kathy's not feeling well. Do you know what's wrong with her?"
