Jennifer took a deep breath and shouted, "Elena, Luke, hurry up and help Chandler to bed upstairs."
After Elena and Luke heard Jennifer's order, they hurried forward to help Chandler.
Chandler pushed them away. At the same time, he fell backward onto the sofa because his feet felt weak. He was indolent like a sloth.
"Get out, get out of my house…jinx..." Chandler pointed in Rose's direction.
"Hurry up and get him out of here. He's acting rashly because he's drunk. How embarrassing." Jennifer felt annoyed seeing Chandler.
Elena and Luke went to help Chandler again. It was much easier than the last time. He was even drunker and his body became weak that he didn't have the strength to push them away anymore.
They helped Chandler to go up the stairs. He was weak and mumbled words that no one could hear clearly.
"Mr. Linder, slow down and watch your steps," Elena reminded him.
But for a drunk person, he could no longer control his body and had no idea when to lift his feet.
In the end, Luke had to carry Chandler on his back while Elena helped him to prevent him from falling off of Luke.
Grandma watched Chandler, who passed out, disappeared at the corner of the stairs and shook her head with anger.
"Rose, go to rest and ignore your dad." Grandma felt bad for the family.
"Grandma, is what dad said true? I'm not his daughter and I'm not from the Linder family?" Rose's eyes were exceptionally calm, and she looked at ease.
That was why they treated her so badly. That was why they gave up on her and chose Sophie?
She was unwanted by the family. No, she didn't belong to this family at all.
Then her coming back and wanting to regain everything that belonged to her would only be a joke because nothing truly belonged to her so how could she get anything back!
"It's not like that. Don't believe what your dad said. He drank alcohol and acted rashly. Can you believe his words?" Jennifer explained, wanting to heal her wounded heart.
"Grandma, don't lie to me." Rose endured the burning sensation in her nose.
"How could grandma lie to you? If you were not a child of the Linder family, would I love you as much? Why don't I care for my biological granddaughter Sophie? Grandma isn't crazy," Jennifer smiled and made comparisons for her.
"I don't know what's wrong with your parents. They've crossed the line more and more these years. They don't think before they speak. But you need to know that they were just venting their anger and what they said aren't true. Rose, you need to believe what grandma said…grandma won't lie to you…"
Jennifer clenched a fist over her chest as her face turned pale and her chest ached.
When Rose saw this, her expression changed drastically. She stepped forward and helped her grandma to sit on the sofa. "Grandma, what's the matter?"
"Pill...my pills...on the bedside table..." Jennifer's breathing became rapid.
Rose hurried to Jennifer's room, grabbed a pill from the bedside table, and gave it to Jennifer. She then poured a cup of water and gave it to Jennifer to take the pill.
Jennifer ate the pill and sat there to relax. Rose looked at her with distress and soothed her chest.
"Grandma, are you okay? Don't scare me..." Rose's eyes were dyed red from anxiety and worry, "You are my and Doris' closest relative...and only relative. You have to be healthy."
"As long as you trust grandma, grandma will be fine." While trembling, Jennifer held Rose's hand hard, hoping to make Rose believe her this way.
"Grandma, I believe you." Rose bit her lips tightly, enduring all the pain and tears.
She had no choice but to trust her grandma.
