Caroline scoffed lightly. Couldn’t Sylvia see how anxious Francis was over that hairpin? To claim there was nothing between him and the owner of the hairpin? Who were they kidding?

Sylvia shouted towards the hallway, “Come quickly, Mr. Francis has taken a fall!”

Leveraging his brother’s strength, Francis steadied himself and slowly seated himself in the wheelchair.

No sooner had he settled than he pressed the wheelchair’s button, heading straight for the door.

“Grandma?”

Gilbert was completely lost, glancing between Francis and Caroline and asking, “What’s going on? Where’s big bro going?”

“Oh dear!”
