Chapter 331

Joaquin, on the other hand, calmly took a glance at Keith without a hint of discomfort. "You call this acting lovey-dovey? This is what we do daily."

As he spoke, he shifted his gaze and had a proper look at Katherine's face. He then lifted his eyebrows and drawled, "Besides, we are lovey-dovey. We don't have to put on an act."

The siblings didn't say anything in reply, but they inwardly sighed in unison. Whatever you say.

After Katherine packed up the lunch box, she suddenly changed the topic. "You are in good health and you are almost healed now. Start packing later. I'll bring you to Grandma," she stated.

Keith froze for a second upon hearing this. "Grandma? Isn't Grandma supposed to be in Hovington? What is she doing in Kyoland? Did she come here to see me because she knew I was sick? Kathy, why did you tell her? You know her health isn't the best. It must have been tiring for her to come all the way here—"

She didn't have a hint of emotion on her face when she interrupted his chatter. "Grandma doesn't know you're sick."

"Oh… She doesn't know, huh?" Keith paused again. "Then what is she doing in Kyoland? Where is she now?"

Katherine didn't divulge much. "You'll see when we're there."

He only grunted in response.

Joaquin's throat bobbed as he quietly watched the siblings talk.

An hour later, Keith was standing in front of his grandmother's tombstone. His expression was serious, his lips were tightly drawn, and his eyes were full of suppressed disbelief and shock.

"How… how did this happen?" His throaty voice as he swallowed sounded like he had to force his words out.

Instead of answering him immediately, Katherine kneeled and gently stroked the photo on Jennifer's tombstone with her fingertips.

"Grandma, I brought Keith to you. You must have been very upset that you couldn't see him before you left. He was sick a while ago, but he's recovered now, so you can rest assured. I'll take care of him from now on."

Keith's body tensed up when he heard those words and his throat felt utterly parched.

He struggled to open his mouth before he demanded, "What happened? Why did Grandma suddenly pass away?"

"Are you not going to greet Grandma?" Katherine didn't even look at him when she said that.

"Kathy!" Keith finally couldn't hold his emotions in anymore. He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Tell me! What exactly happened?!"
