The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

The family doctor remained at the residence to monitor everyone’s condition. Elder Mr. Bailey was in a bad state, but Old Mr. Bailey was doing even worse. The doctor handed the aspirin to Isabelle and reminded her, “If you’re not in extreme pain, you should stay away from it. Pills are not good for your liver and kidneys.”

She flashed a wry smile at him. “I have no choice now. There are too many matters waiting for me to deal with.”

Next, she took the aspirin, but before the effect kicked in, Mrs. Bailey found her way over, crying and claiming that she heard Dexter. She even invited Isabelle to go with her and look for Dexter.

It had been a full day of wailing and hallucinating for Mrs. Bailey.

Mrs. Bailey covered her face, her voice hoarse from the crying. “If he’s worried about us, why did he choose to leave in the first place?” Isabelle did not know how to answer her mom. At this point, any word from her would only evoke more sadness.
