Chapter 13

Meanwhile,

Isabella had always been close to Maggie's grandmother.

Before, whenever Isabella was home and Maggie visited the family, she almost always brought her

Rughter along.

But now, although Isabella had returned to the country, she hadn't called her once in all these days

Instead, she called Julia every day, unable to go even a few days without seeing her.

Given that, there was no need to force things.

Besides, now that Isabella and Julia were so close, if the old lady found out, who knew how upset she would be.

So this time, even though Isabella was back in the country, Maggie didn't go to Franklin's place to pick her up, but went to the family home alone.

The traffic was heavy, and it was already past six when Maggie arrived.

Maggie's grandmother's smile faltered when she saw her, gently touching her face with concern, "You've lost weight."

Maggie's eyelashes fluttered as she said, "Work has been busy lately."

The old lady sighed, "No matter how busy, you must eat properly."

"I know, Grandmother. I'll take care of myself."

Maggie sat beside her grandmother, resting her face on the elderly woman's shoulder, seeking some warmth.

Seeing the lamb soup was nearly ready, the old lady asked someone to serve her a bowl to warm her
