In the Conrads’ Mansion…

The withered leaves were all over the garden after the continuous rain. The floor was all muddy, but no one bothered to clean it.

The Conrads’ Mansion was covered in low spirit. The maids were nowhere to be seen.

Clarence got off the car and looked around. Then, he walked forward.

Justin was sitting in his wheelchair in the backyard. He was staring at the sky, deep in thoughts.

Justin turned around when he heard footsteps from his back, “Clarence, you’re here.”

Clarence stood beside Justin, “Where are the maids?”

Justin replied, “Father’s paralyzed, and since I’m the only person in the house, so I dismissed them.”

Clarence pouted and remained silent.

Justine said, “It was so messed up earlier that I forgot to ask. Have you gotten better?”

“I’m fine.”

“Stella and the kid… Are they alright?”

“They’re fine too.”

Justin looked in front and said, “What a relief.”

Clarence asked after a while, “I heard that you’re looking for me?”

Justin nodded and said softly, “You’ve seen how father looks like now. I’ve heard that there’s a specialist in Canada for his condition. So…”

“You wanted to bring him there?”

“Well, we’ve got to try. It’s better than doing nothing.”

“I can get people to hire the specialist over.”
