S31 54. The Old House

Frank frowned. His eyes flickered to his wife, looking for inspiration.” Can we move her mother to Jeremy’s house?”

“I think it’s a good idea. If Jeremy is willing, I can contact Wela directly.” Kara turned to her brother-in-law. 1

Jeremy raised his eyebrows along with his shoulders. “Even if you want to change the house into a hospital, that’s fine. Grandpa Rowan will definitely be happy if his old residence becomes more useful.”

Hearing Jeremy’s chatter, the curve of Diana’s lips faded. It had been a long time since she remembered that house. She thought she had totally forgotten, but now, every corner was clearly depicted in her

memory.

“If Ava’s mother is moved to Uncle’s house, why don’t we just have a New Year’s party there?” Emily suggested, increasing the vibrations in

Diana’s heart.

“That’s a great idea. Ava will be happy if she knows she can join t party with her mother. Mommy, can you call Wela now, please?”

Kara held out her hand. The servant who was on standby quickly brought her phone. Diana remained silent waiting for the results.

“Wela said yes.”

Diana’s heartbeat became increasingly erratic. “W-why didn’t the nurse just move here? Is it because there is no more room available?”

Frank shook his head. “My mother is at Jeremy’s house, Grandma. If Mrs. Connor is here, Ava will still have to go back and forth.”

“Then just move Melanie here.” Diana raised an eyebrow, trying to cover her tension with a smile.

“Even though Mommy claims to be sane and her condition is starting to stabilize, I think it would be wiser if we kept her at Jeremy’s house longer, at least until her mental health is completely recovered. I don’t want her to attack anyone again.”

Frank nodded. “That’s right. We have to minimize the risk. Besides, she has a lot of bad memories in this house. I’m afraid it will affect her recovery.”
