Forbidden Passion

Chapter 538 The Swap

Grace was supposed to take Phoebe in to see Alva, but she was worried Phoebe might get freaked out, so she said, "My mom's been really sick lately and she's super cranky. She might snap at you." Phoebe just shook her head. "No worries. I didn't bring any gifts, so it's probably not the best time. Maybe next time."

Grace let out a sigh of relief. "Phoebe, you're a lifesaver for our Sullivan family. I'll never forget what you've done for us." "Don't mention it. You go handle your stuff. I'm outta here." Phoebe gave her shoulder a pat and headed for the elevator. Grace watched Phoebe get in the elevator. She looked down at the payment slip in her hand, tears starting to well up.

Grace thought, 'Phoebe's such a good person. I gotta work hard and pay her back as soon as I can.'

Grace stood there for a bit, waiting for her emotions to settle before she went to find the doctor to talk about Alva's surgery.

Honestly, she didn't get most of the medical jargon, but whatever. She just needed to know the surgery could stop the cancer from spreading.

After leaving the doctor's office, Grace walked to the ward's door. Inside, she heard Mason's hushed voice. "Honey, Madison grew up with the Reynolds. She's not close to us. Let's just forget about her, okay?" Alva wiped her tears. "We're her real parents. How can she just ignore us? We sent her to the Reynolds to give her a better life. She can't just forget us because she's used to living well."

Even though they were whispering, every word hit Grace like a ton of bricks, leaving her dizzy.

Grace pushed the door open and looked at the shocked Mason and Alva. She asked, her voice shaking, "Is what you said true?"

Mason jumped up and rushed to the door, looking at Grace helplessly. "Grace, we were just talking nonsense."

Grace's face fell apart. She looked at Mason's panicked, aging face and took a step back. "Weren't you talking about Madison?"

Alva knelt on the bed, rubbing her hands nervously. "Grace, you heard wrong. Mason and I were talking about going to the Reynolds Mansion to thank Ms. Ziegler."
