Chapter 316 Ellie Conceals

Sebastian handed the phone directly to Molly. He was driving, and she was coaxing.

"I put the money.. Keep your voice down, or the neighbors will hear that you have money under your pillow, and the house might get robbed."

"I gave you this money because I knew you wouldn't take it otherwise, so I had to sneak it in. Grandpa and Grandma, you're getting older, so don't work in the fields so much."

"My grandpa just had major surgery last year, and the medication and supplements are a big expense. Just use this money for those. When it gets hot, Sebastian and I will come back to take you here to enjoy a summer vacation." Zoey, reminded by Molly, lowered her voice. "Silly child, we're old; we don't need that much money; it's too much."

Molly comforted Max and Zoey for almost half an hour before finally calming them down and hanging up the phone.

Molly asked Sebastian, "Do you think Max and Zoey will use this money to help out Stella's family?"

"If they really can't stand it, they might offer some assistance.. As parents, who don't care for their children? But Max and Zoey aren't foolish; they know when to stop."

Molly nodded and expressed her disdain for that family in the car.

It was dark when they returned to Zandonick.

As soon as they entered, they saw Ellie drinking medicine. "Mom, what medicine are you drinking again?"

"I've been feeling a bit tired lately, so I'm drinking something to calm my nerves."

Ellie put down the medicine bottle and took the bottles and jars from the table upstairs.

Molly watched Ellie's back and turned to Sebastian. "Sebastian, Mom has been taking medicine for several months now, and the dosage keeps going up."

Sebastian glanced upstairs. He was sitting in the living room, across from Timothy. "Dad, did you go to the hospital today?"

"Who told you that?"

Sebastian said, "There was a medical booklet in front of your car."
