Chapter 376 Send Us off to the Afterlife

The fact was, Elise had made a wrong judgment. These two, who didn’t look like they could possibly be related to the Sinclairs, were in fact Laura’s son and daughter-in-law. Elise and Alexander quickly released them, and Joshua rushed forward to the other side of the bed before sobbing loudly while he clutched at Laura’s leg. “Mom, do you know that I was frantic with worry upon hearing the news that you were hospitalized?! You gave me such a fright!” Meanwhile, Maureen followed suit and wailed, “That’s true, Mom! We made our way here in a rush and left everything else behind.

We’ll be fine without you.” There was a flash of surprise across Alexander’s face but he quickly recollected himself and maintained his composure. Turning to look at Elise, he said, “I’ll wait for you outside. Yell if you need anything.”

It was indeed quite inappropriate for an outsider like him to interfere in the Sinclair Family matters, but these two strangers had popped out all of a sudden so he didn’t want to leave Elise and Laura to face the duo themselves. However, Alexander had no choice but to retreat and wait outside. Elise nodded her head.

Just as he was about to walk out, Laura voiced out once again, “Elise, you can wait outside too.” Upon hearing that, Elise was taken aback but she obediently murmured, “Sure” However, she shot a warning look at Joshua and Maureen before turning around to walk out of the room. Subsequently, she left and shut the door gently behind her. She didn’t leave immediately but paused by the doorway for a short while.

From the glass window by the door, she saw quite clearly how Laura pushed the couple aside and made them go down to their knees. Subsequently, both parties seemed to be quite agitated but Elise couldn’t hear their conversation. Elise frowned as she had never seen Laura behave this way.

A home can only exist with love. You’ll always be Old Mrs. Sinclair and Old

From now onwards, you can leave your grandma in our hands. You must be quite tired, too. Go home and take some rest.” Joshua put on an air due to his position as her elder and he gave out his instructions without bothering to ask for her opinion. “No, I’ll stay here and take care of Grandma.” However, Maureen interjected, “Joshua, why don’t you go back with Elise to get some supplies?” As she said that, she
