Keira suddenly turned her head, looking at Lewis in disbelief.

Lewis took a deep breath and said, “Keira, thank you.”

Keira felt a bit uncomfortable. “For what?”

Lewis said indifferently, “Nora’s research project on Alzheimer’s disease had been stalled and only

She withdrew her hand. “Grandma has been so kind to

me, and I couldn’t just stand by and do nothing. Besides, I just wanted to find out the truth about our marriage certificate.”

Lewis paused slightly upon hearing this.

He asked, “Did Grandma remember?”

“Yeah, she remembered,” Keira raised an eyebrow. “Impressive medicine, huh?”
