Though he appeared calm, he was filled with anxiety!

The elderly woman was the one person he was closest

to in this world…

Over the past few years, her health had been deteriorating. Their family doctor had even hinted to old Mrs. Horton that she might not make it through

the year…

He couldn’t lose her!

When Keira saw him approaching, she drew her own conclusions. However, it wasn’t the right time to discuss it. She quickly blurted out, “Granny just had a heart attack. She has used all her nitroglycerin pills and urgently needs medication”.

After a pause, she added, “She’ll be okay once she gets

Lewis nervously pressed his lips together.

Isla’s eyes lit up as she said playfully, “Jake, you could have just waited for me at the parking lot. Why did you come all the way to the front door?”

Jake was clearly irritated.

Isla had texted him that she was almost there but carrying too many gifts and asked him to come pick her up. He waited in the parking lot for a long time, and when she didn’t show up, he came out to check.

His eyes fell on Keira, and he paused mid-step.

But in the next moment, his previous impatience melted away, replaced by a softness. He said gently to
