Chapter 705:

While Victoria and Pearce were animatedly discussing Elyse, Felicia found herself unable to focus on their conversation. Her thoughts were in disarray. She wasn’t sure if the shock had overwhelmed her or if her advancing age was slowing her down.

Eventually, she came to understand that she had been misled by Thea and had wronged her own granddaughter.

Felicia was so upset that she nearly tumbled from her chair.

Forrest noticed Felicia’s distress and considerately suggested, “Mrs. Benson, you seem unwell. Would you like to go home and rest?”

Turning to see Felicia’s pale face, Pearce asked, “Grandma, are you all right? Should I take you to the hospital?”

Regaining some clarity, Felicia clutched Pearce’s hand and urgently asked, “Where’s Elyse? I need to see her. I have something important to tell her.”

Pearce responded with a hint of resignation, “As I mentioned before, Elyse is overseas competing. She left yesterday.”

“When is she coming back?” Felicia asked, reluctant to accept the situation.
