Chapter 67

At noon, because Millie had a sore foot, Aurelia accompanied her to the office and ordered takeout for lunch.

After lunch, as usual, she made a video call to Sophia.

“Ms. Simmons, your mother is doing well, so you can relax. The doctor also mentioned that she’s currently in stable condition and should improve after the surgery.”

After ending the video call, Millie approached Aurelia.
