Jade's smile froze on her face.

Coleen was smiling on the side.

Chad put down the gift. Aubree also hugged him, "Look at my grandson, such a handsome lad now!"

Chad, "thank you, grandma."

Coleen asked Jade and Chad to have a meal.

After the meal, Chad sat in the courtyard and chatted with his mother, "Is dad at the hospital with grandpa?"

"Yes. It's too late today. Tomorrow I'll take you to the hospital to see your grandpa."

"How is he doing?"

Coleen: "Not so great. The facilities at the village hospital are limited. If it doesn't work out, we plan to take him to Havenbrook for treatment."

Jade, linking arms with her mother, tilted her head and asked, "Then why didn't we take grandpa to Havenbrook in the first place?"

Chad tapped Jade's head. "If we could convince grandpa and grandma, why would they still live here instead of moving to Havenbrook with us?" Jade got it. So, it was grandpa who didn't want to go.

Night was falling. The neighbor's dog came over.

Jade was afraid when she saw the dog. She picked up a stick from the side, looking like she was ready to fight the dog. "Chad, there's a dog! Get rid of it."

Chad quickly stood up and shielded her behind him. He took a broom from the yard to chase the dog away, then locked the gate. Aubree said, "How come Jade is scared of dogs now? When you were little, you loved to play with puppies."

Jade choked, "Grandma, I'm allergic to dog hair."

"That's impossible! When you were little, you even slept with a dog in your arms. You..."

"Mom, do we have any thick blankets at home? I'm about to make the beds." Coleen interrupted Aubree.

Aubree nodded, and then led her to the room on the west side.

She asked Coleen, "How come Jade is allergic to dog hair now?"

Coleen laughed, "She's grown up now, her resistance may not be as good as before, so she's allergic." Jade also asked Chad, "Did I really sleep with a dog when I was little?"
