Zachary took a deep breath before explaining, "Susann was missing. She could have been in danger...

Upon hearing his words, Lenora felt a profound sense of helplessness.

She needed Zachary to understand that Susanna's well-being was not her concern. This wasn't an excuse. she should feel sympathetic toward.

From the way Susanna had spoken to her that morning, there was no indication whatsoever of her being sick..

However, if she were to voice her thoughts, he would accuse her of lacking empathy.

"Even if her life wasn't at risk, you'd still go. You care about her, so stop pretending you don't," Lenora said. "Besides, I don't owe you any explanations."

"I know you have feelings for Jonas, but now isn't the right time for you to see him, let alone bring him to meet Grandpa..."

"What are you talking about? You met Susanna at such a critical time and even brought her to see Grandpa. I simply learned from you."

"Susanna fell ill, so I had no choice but to bring her here to calm her down. You'd mentioned before that once Grandpa was moved to the general ward, we could bring her over. So, what's upsetting you now?" Zachary asked, his confusion evident. Lenora had never expected that Zachary would speak of this matter with such unabashed confidence.

Her husband had been lured away by a single phone call from another woman, staying out all night. The next day, he had the audacity to introduce this woman to his grandparents and still had the nerve to question why she was upset.

To him, Susanna's illness took precedence. When she fell ill, he felt obligated to calm her down-a valid reason, indeed.

Yet, he never considered soothing Lenora's emotions. Instead, he accused her of lacking empathy.

With a smile, Lenora said, "Oh, I forgot to mention, Jonas has been frail since childhood. He can't handle stress. Since he wanted to visit Grandpa, I had to agree to calm him down. I hope you can understand. Surely, you can show a bit of empathy, right?" Zachary's expression stiffened. "LenoralTM

"What's the matter?" Lenora raised an eyebrow at him. Isn't this perfectly, normal? Mr. Fuller, I don't -understand what you're so upset about."

Lenora, I'm not joking with you!" Zachary frowned.

"I'm not joking with you either," Lenora said seriously.

"You're deliberately p*ssing me off, aren't you?"
