CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Coming across Fabiana

Not knowing how long she had been walking, Lilian seemed to see someone next to the trash can not far away.

She blinked and walked towards the person.

When she got closer, she saw that it was an old woman with a hunched back. Feeling that the woman was a bit familiar, she went up and tapped her on the shoulder.

The elderly woman was startled and immediately turned her head. When she found it was Lilian, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She took out half a piece of bread hidden behind her and started to gnaw on it in Lilian's face.

Lilian stared at her, took her hand, and shook her head, signaling her to stop eating.

"Do you want some too?" The old woman looked Lilian up and down, finding that she didn't look like someone who was short of money.

Lilian put her cake on the ground and said in sign language, "Don't you remember me, Fabiana Klaud? I'm Lilian Rossum."

The old woman looked at her fingers, which, illuminating in the street lamplight, were like dancing butterflies in the wind.

After a while, she finally turned to look at Lilian's face, her aged voice shivering, "Lily...Lily?"

Lilian nodded in tears and signed, "Yes, it's me! Why did you end up here?"

"You've grown so much!" Fabiana sighed as tears streamed down.

She picked up the cane next to the trash can and walked to the stone steps to sit down.

Lilian followed her over.

Fabiana had used to be a maid in the Landau family and a close attendant of Grandpa Thomas. After Lilian came to the family, it was Fabiana who had been taking care of her.

Later, Fabiana broke her leg when she fell from the stairs while trying to save Ruby Landau. Then Grandpa Thomas let her retire early and go back to recuperate.

Lilian had always thought that she had returned to her hometown, but she met her here today.

She handed the cake to Fabiana and gestured, "Fabiana, today is my birthday. Please celebrate it with me."

Fabiana was stunned but then put a kind smile on her wrinkled face. "It's your birthday? Happy birthday, Lily! I'm sorry I don't have anything to give you."

Lilian shook her head, showing she didn't need anything.
