Chapter 260
Marguerite remembered the words Jimmy had spoken, and when he had left, she looked around the room and noticed the basket of fruit Frederick had brought filled with mangoes.
Without a second thought, she tossed all the mangoes into the trash bin. Just to be sure, she hid the bin inside the bathroom
After all this, she fetched a basin of warm water to wash Laverne’s feet, reminding her repeatedly as she did.
“Granny, Jimmy just said, you can’t eat anything right now, okay?”
Laverne patted Marguente’s head affectionately. “I understand, dear You’ve been raised so well, whoever brought you up must have loved you very much!
Marguente was taken aback, looking at Laverne with unwavering eyes.
Yes, her grandma had always loved her
Even when she had lost her memory, she treated Marguente as her own.
Tears threatened to spill from Marguente’s eyes at the thought, and she quickly looked away. “Yes, she loves me. She always has.”
“Believe in me, dear. Everything will be alright after tomorrow.”
Your grandma has never forgotten about you, she has always loved you
Wait for tomorrow, and when it comes, Granny will tell you everything
Sadly, Laverne never spoke these words out loud
The night got darker.
Marguerite laid on the narrow wire bed, her heart fluttering with uncertainty
Despite the anxiety, she felt an overwhelming wave of fatigue washing over her as soon as she got into bed. She soon succumbed to sleep.
As did Laverne, lying on the hospital bed, and the bodyguard at the door, sprawled out on the floor
No one noticed a shadowy figure sneaking into the room.
The next moming
Marguerite was awakened by the alarm clock.
She woke up feeling groggy, and when she checked the time, the realized she only had ten minutes left to take Granny for her check–up
She quickly got out of bed, calling out to Laverne, “Granny, it’s time for your check–up Wake up.”
Marguente rushed into the bathroom to freshen up, noticing that Granny wasn’t stirring
She popped her head out of the bathroom, toothbrush in mouth, and saw Granny wide awake, staring at the ceiling as if daydreaming
The pillow was covered in fruit peels, and a gnawed mango pit.
