Jonas took a step forward and pulled down his mask. "Old Mr. Fuller, Old Mrs. Fuller, I've brought Nora here. I heard that Old Mr. Fuller wasn't feeling well, so I thought I'd come up and pay a visit. How are you feeling now, Old Mr. Fuller?" "Thank you. I'm all right. You don't have to worry," Gerald said with a chuckle.

"That's good. Since Nora is here, I'll take my leave now. Goodbye, Nora. Goodbye, Old Mr. and Old Mrs. Fuller. Goodbye, Mr. Fuller." Jonas put on his mask and left the ward.

"Nora, your friend is quite handsome. He's a fine young man," Allison said with a smile.

As she spoke, she subtly glanced at Zachary.

Based on her years of experience, she was certain that Jonas had feelings for Lenora.

He was also much more sensible than Susanna.

Lenora didn't quite grasp the underlying meaning of Allison's words. She chimed in, "Grandma, he's a huge/celebrity. He's quite popular among young girls." "Really? How did you two meet?"

"When we were kids, his family lived right next to mine. We were neighbors, but they moved away later on. I never thought we'd cross paths again.

"That's quite the coincidence!" Allison exclaimed. "You two must be childhood friends, right?"

Zachary sat motionlessly on the couch, his expression growing increasingly somber.

"Nora, you've been working all day and must be tired. Thank you for coming to see us. You should head home and get some rest. Zack, will you take Nora home?"

Zachary had made up the excuse of working for her in front of Gerald and Allison.

However, they weren't fools. Zachary had arrived early with Susanna, but Lenora hadn't shown up all day. Considering the indifferent attitude Lenora had displayed toward Zachary carlier, they knew there were issues brewing between the couple once again. Gerald couldn't meddle in everything. He could only let them resolve their own issues.

Grandpa, it's all right. I'll stay here with-

Before Lenora could finish speaking, Zachary stood up and moved to her side. "Let's go!

Gerald waved his hand. "Go on

Lenora pursed her lips. She had no choice but to follow behind Zachary as they left.

Once they left the ward, the two moved in unspoken agreement, wordlessly making their way toward the
