Chapter 130

Then Franklin's younger brother, Yancy's voice came from outside: "Sister-in-law, I heard you were sick. Are you feeling better now?" Franklin hadn't spoken yet when Franklin interjected, "Come in."

The door had been left open earlier as people had been coming and going from the room. Hearing Franklin's voice, Yancy walked in from outside, first greeting Franklin, "Brother."

Franklin responded with a simple, "Hmm."

Yancy's gaze then fell on Maggie. Though the two hadn't interacted much, he knew she wasn't entirely sure how to engage with him. Maggie took the initiative, saying, "I'm feeling much better now." Yancy scratched his head awkwardly, "Oh, that's... good to hear."

Maggie smiled gently. "Have you not been back here for a while?"

"Yeah... I missed the food here, so I came back for a bit. As soon as I got back, Grandma mentioned you were running a fever."

At this moment, Grandma Wilson came upstairs. Seeing that Maggie's complexion had improved, she seemed more at ease. "The kitchen's finished preparing the soup.

Mr. Stanley said you can have some now. Would you prefer to come downstairs and have it, or should Frank bring it up to

you?"

Maggie hadn't eaten much earlier and didn't have much of an appetite. Feeling a little stifled staying in her room, she decided to join Grandma Wilson and the others downstairs. Once downstairs, Yancy asked, "Where's Isabella?"

Grandma Wilson replied, "She ate a little earlier but couldn't drink much. I'll have her drink a bit more later."

After sitting down, Maggie accepted the soup the butler handed her and began sipping it slowly, cooling it with gentle breaths.

Franklin sat next to her, but his phone buzzed with a message. Perhaps trying to prevent her from seeing the screen, he shifted slightly away and began replying to the message. Maggie noticed but said nothing, continuing to drink her soup quietly.

Grandma Wilson frowned, "Can't it wait until after the soup?"
