“Ivy just told me she’s quitting school to make money by selling her painting, hoping to pay our medical
bills,” Cory murmured.
Rosalynn was briefly taken aback, then said, “She loves you, and that’s a good thing. Why are you still
unhappy?”
“It should be me protecting her,” Cory replied.
Rosalynn’s chin lightly rubbed against his head, and she said Son, you and your sister should protect
each other.”
Cory didn’t respond.
Rosalynn knew that, Cory would need to figure out some things as he grew up.
So, she dropped the subject.
“By the way, Cory, we need to help your dad with something in the next couple of days,” she changed
the topic.
“What’s up?”
“Your dad’s grandma passed away recently, you might have seen it on the news. She’s your great–
grandma. She should have been buried by now, but your dad got injured while trying to save me and
still hasn’t fully recovered, so it’s been postponed.”
“Are we going to the funeral?” Cory asked.
“Yes,” Rosalynn replied, “It’s not too far to go to your great–grandmother’s hometown. would you like to
go?
“Sure,” Cory answered readily.
“Good.” Rosalynn nodded, then checked her phone, “Hilaria arrived there and just dropped me a line
but hasn’t sent any messages for hours. I have no idea what’s going on over there.”
“Do you have the address? I could try hacking into their surveillance system to see what’s happening,”
Cory immediately offered. Rosalynn hesitated, “Is that okay?”
Cory looked at her.
In the end, Rosalynn gave, “Just a quick look, just to make sure Hilaria is safe.”
A moment later, Cory easily hacked into the system.
But to Rosalynn’s surprise, “Nobody’s there?”
The vast yard was empty, except for the street lights in the garden. not a single light was on in the
house.
There were no signs of any house staff either.
“Maybe they’re all at the hospital, Rosalynn guessed.
She then called Hilaria, just to be sure.
The phone rang for a while before being picked up.
“Sweetie, what’s up?” Hilaria’s voice came through the phone.
“Nothing much. how’s uncle doing?” Rosalynn asked.
There was some background noise on Hilaria’s end, then she responded. “Not too good, I’ll keep you
posted, don’t worry.” “Okay,” Rosalynn nodded.
The call ended abruptly.
On the other side of the ocean.
Outside the hospital ward.
Hilaria hung up the phone.
With a stern face, she turned to look at Yvonne.
Yvonne hadn’t changed much over the years. if anything, she’d become more ambitious but had
learned to hide it better.
She’d become much more gentle.
“Mom, was that Gabriella?” Yvonne asked.
Hilaria gave her a serious look, without uttering a word.
She had no idea when Cory’s and his older brother’s family had become so close.
She walked over, looking worn out, to see Yvonne helping Cory’s wife, juggling household matters,
communicating with the hospital, and procuring necessities for the funeral simultaneously.
