Chapter 405

Celeste said, “I have to go to work now. Your granny isn’t feeling well these days and needs rest. Once she’s feeling better, you can go visit her.”

Although Betty had never truly blamed Jordyn for being close to Wynn, ever since learning that Isabelle’s health had also started deteriorating, it felt like half her spirit had been drained.

If she were to see Jordyn now and be reminded of how close she had gotten to Wynn, it would probably only worsen her mood.

When Jordyn heard that Betty was sick, she looked genninely concerned. “Huh? Granny is sick? Is it serious? Mom, why didn’t you tell me?”
