Upon hearing the sweet and gentle voice, Mrs. Iverson's vacant eyes moved slightly. But the moment she saw Bella, it was as if she remembered everything. Her eyes brightened and came alive. “Bella..... Bella! You've finally come to see me! Chris said you would come, and he didn't lie to me!"

Bella fluttered her long eyelashes and clenched her fingers. "Mrs. Iverson, have you been doing well lately? How's your health?"

"I'm good... So good... Seeing you, all my ailments are gone." As she spoke, her body trembled slightly as if she were feeling cold. Bella quickly shrugged off her blazer and draped it over Mrs. Iverson's thin shoulders.

"Come, Bella. I have something for you."

"Mrs. Iverson, this is too much!"

The cold sensation on her slender wrist made Bella uncomfortable all over, and she immediately tried to remove the bracelet. However, Mrs. Iverson held her hand tightly.
