Chapter 18

Very soon, it was night time.

In the internet café, Alexander was bored out of his mind waiting when his phone rang

He was fiddling with a business card in his hand as he responded with a voice note, “Steven, she didn’t come today… Maybe she’s gone to another Internet cafe. Forget about it.”

Then, he stuffed the business card into a drawer.

Under the starry night, the countryside was full of cicadas and birds chirping.

There was also the sound of frogs in the paddy field,

Madeline sat outside the house eating watermelons as Helena set up the dining table with dishes.

“Maddie, let’s have dinner. You must be starving 1 didn’t know that you were coming today. Look at the time. It’s already late now that I’m done cooking. Did you tell your mother that you’re back?”

With affection on her face. Helena set up a full table of dishes,

Although it was the countryside, Madeline didn’t think it was lacking compared to the city.

As she ate her watermelon, she could not stop thinking about it – this was the place she wanted to come back to….

This was her home.

“Grandpa and Grandma, don’t worry. I’m on summer vacation. After that, I’ll go to university. I’ll take this time and stay home for more than half a month. I’ll be off to orientation at the end of this month

Helena smiled proudly. “You are the only university student in our county this year. We’re so proud of you.

Madeline also said proudly. “Of course. You must know whose granddaughter Lam!”

Madeline finally smiled happily

The next day. Madeline insisted on taking her grandparents to the city hospital for examination.

The doctor prescribed them to be hospitalized. After the examination, they would undergo surgery, Helena was very worried and secretly asked the doctor how much the operation would cost.

After finding out that they needed to prepare 40,000 dollars, she burst into tears.

Madeline comforted Helena, I have money. I have more than 100 thousand dollars. I earned it myself; it was not from the Larson family. Grandina, don’t tell Grandpa how much the surgery cous. His health is what’s most important”

Thankfully, the operation went smoothly.
