217 Goddaughter

Keira stood quietly in front of old Mrs. Horton’s room.

Selena and Mr. Lee opened the door and upon seeing her, Selena smiled slightly. “Aunt Keira, is there something you need?”

Keira said calmly, “I have something to discuss with Grandma; could you please step aside?”

Upon hearing this, Selena’s expression flickered.

Then she smiled and said, “Mr. Lee is conducting a physical examination on Great-grandma and recording data; it’s not very convenient right now!”

“Is that so?”

Keira’s gaze turned colder as she looked at Mr. Lee.

Mr. Lee, holding a notebook, arrogantly nodded at her. “Yes, please excuse me.”

Keira sneered softly.

Selena then glanced around the room until her eyes briefly settled on a potted plant on the balcony. She smiled and asked Mr. Lee, “Can we have Clivia in Great

Grandma’s room?”

Upon hearing that, Fiona immediately said anxiously, “That Clivia is old Mrs. Horton’s favorite flower, and

that plant has been cultivated to the highest quality! If sold, it could be worth millions!”

Selena’s eyes flickered.

Of course, she knew that; she remembered that Mrs. Cobb was particularly fond of Clivia, and gifting that plant to her would be perfect…

With that in mind, Selena gave Mr. Lee a meaningful glance.

Mr. Lee then coughed. “Indeed, having Clivia in the room isn’t ideal; it disrupts old Mrs. Horton’s rest, and

it could affect our data collection.”

Selena quickly said, “Then let’s move it to my room first.”

With a wave of her hand, the nanny who stayed behind to take Selena’s orders immediately went to move the plant.

Fiona’s face showed a troubled expression as she looked to Keira for help.
