Chapter 272 A Disaster Out of Kindness

Fernando’s expression remained unchanged.

“Ms. Rita, Ms. Maia, please have a seat. Mr. Hans is still resting. I’ll go and see if he’s awake,” Fernando politely said. After uttering these words, he nodded to the two women and turned towards the antique staircase.

Once Fernando left, Rita looked at her freshly painted bright red nails, somewhat dissatisfied, and said, “Are you juts going to sit there? Shouldn’t you be preparing tea for your mother?”

“Of course, I’m sorry for forgetting my manners,” Maia responded immediately, heading toward the nearby counter.

She looked at the tea that Fernando had started preparing, and her gaze subtly changed. The counter was quite a distance from the living room. Maia had her back turned to Rita, so Rita could not see what she was doing.

Maia began preparing the tea. She made one cup of tea and half filled it with salt, the temperature of the tea perfectly dissolving the fine salt particles.

Then, holding the tea cup, Maia walked back to the living room. At the same time, the elevator door nearby slowly opened, and an elderly man with a cane walked out with Fernando’s support.

Maia’s grip on the teacup tightened involuntarily. She was worried that Rita would hurt Hans. After all, the current Hans was naive and child–like, with memory lapses from time to time.

“Father, the rest must have done you good! I’m glad to see you looking so refreshed. I brought you some supplements I carefully selected especially for you. Would you like to see them?” Rita said with a false smile.

However, Hans did not even glance at Rita and completely ignored her words. Seeing his reaction and demeanor, Maia was sure of one thing: his memory was clear now. She felt somewhat relieved.

I’m sorry. I must be such a disappointment. I’m not as filial as mother, who thinks about you in everything she does. I’ve made up my mind just now to learn from
