“What?” Angeline’s eyes filled with disbelief as she stumbled, almost falling from the shock. Her heart sank to the pit of her stomach.

Previously, Evander had hired a professional caregiver to look after Wilfred. Angeline had been occupied in recent days and didn’t have the opportunity to visit him.

She assumed there was still time and that she could take care of Wilfred when her work ended. Only then did she realize how fleeting life can be.

He could pass away anytime.

Without further delay, Angeline headed for Wilfred’s ward. Suddenly, someone gripped the corner of her clothes.

“Angel, did something happen to Old Mr. Sorelle? Can I visit him with you?”

“Sure.”

Angeline swiftly made up her mind. Grandpa adored Floretta when they last met, so of course, he will want to see her one last time before he passes away.

Concerned about leaving Sebastian behind, she took his hand, and the three of them went to Wilfred’s ward together.

As they approached the door, they saw rows of bodyguards standing outside who were most likely sent by Joseline.

“I’m sorry.” The bodyguards stopped them and said icily, “Mrs. Yiurk left orders that no one is to visit this ward.”

Hearing that, Angeline scoffed coldly. Joseline is quite clever, isn’t she? She never took care of Grandpa, yet here she is, putting on a show. Does she think everyone else is as morally bankrupt as she is?

Angeline scowled and announced haughtily, “I am a member of the Sorelle family. Do I need your permission to visit my grandpa? If you insist on blocking my way on Joseline’s behalf, we will settle it in court and see who is in the right.”

As she refused to back down, the bodyguards chickened out. They shared a look and turned a blind eye to her arrival by allowing her entry.
