Upon mentioning Jessie's condition, her cheerful face became fretful. "My mother's illness has relapsed several times over the years, we have no idea what to do anymore. Even though the hospitals here have cured her every time, the root of the illness was never completely removed. I heard that the healthcare in Glevania is very good; if there's a chance, I'd like to bring my mother to see a doctor there."

Natalie encouraged her to go as well, saying, "Even though the medicine here is more advanced, I feel that Glevania's healthcare still has its unique qualities which may be able to help."

After chatting with Jessie's daughter for a while, Natalie went to Jessie's ward.

Jessie was sitting on the hospital bed. She didn't look too well.

As soon as Natalie came in, Jessie said, "Natalie, you should go back. I know why you're here, but I've said everything that can be said. I can't answer any more questions which you may have." Natalie bit her lip.

She had no idea where Santiago was, and Tobias was unwilling to help her find him.

It looked like she would need to spend time searching for him by herself.

"I understand, Auntie. Take care of yourself, I'll go first. I'll come visit you if I have the time," said Natalie towards Jessie.

Jessie nodded.

"Auntie, your hair is a little messy. Let me help you comb it."

Before leaving, Natalie saw that Jessie's hair was a little messy.

Jessie's breathing hitched.

She touched her hair reflexively and said, "It is?"

Natalie nodded. She went to the bathroom to get a comb, then sat next to Jessie.

"Auntie, your hair is so lovely. It's so thick and dark," said Natalie as she combed Jessie's hair.

Natalie slowly moved the comb through Jessie's hair, but Jessie felt as if the comb was tickling her heart.

Finally, Natalie finished combing Jessie's hair.

She stood up and smiled, "Auntie, you're actually still very young."

Jessie mustered a smile.

"Then I'll go first," Natalie said to her.

Jessie nodded.

When Natalie reached the door, Jessie suddenly blurted out loudly, "Natalie!"

Natalie stopped in her tracks and turned around.
