Lucinda spilled the beans about her brother with a grin, saying, "Mom, Stefan and I can keep you company instead. My brother's super busy with work. Plus, he's got a crush now and is in the midst of wooing her. We should give him some time to chase his girl."
Fiona asked excitedly, "Lucy, your bro's got a girl? Who is she? Have you met her?"
"I haven't met her yet. My brother doesn't want to introduce her to me yet."
Maybe he's not successful in wooing her yet.
Otherwise, he'd definitely bring her future sister-in-law to meet her.
He promised that.
He said he only had one sister in his life. He would look for a girlfriend who could get along with her and never let there be a conflict between his girlfriend and his sister.
Once, Lucinda joked with her brother about what if she didn't like the girl he liked?
He actually said that if she didn't like her or couldn't get along with her, he'd break up with her and find a new girlfriend who could get along with Lucinda.
Lucinda: "Thank goodness I'm not a difficult sister.”
She can get along with most people.
The person who got along best with Lucinda was Cecilia.
Unfortunately, both Cecilia and Lucinda had thought about making each other their sisters-in-law, but neither of them got what they wanted.
Lucinda only had sibling feelings for Cecilia's brother. And for Ike, Cecilia was just a sister.
"That boy really knows how to keep a secret."
"He didn't hide it; he just recently fell for someone."
Lucinda defended her brother.
When Lucinda and Stefan registered their marriage, Ike said he didn't have a crush on anyone.
That proved he only recently had a crush.
Listening to the mother-daughter conversation, Janice chimed in, "Lucy, can you help your brother find a girlfriend?"
Clearly, she was referring to Keith, not Ike.
Suddenly, everyone but Cecilia was looking at Janice.
There was surprise in Lucinda's eyes, but she suppressed it. She asked cautiously, "Mom, who are you referring to when you say my brother?"
Janice blinked, blinked again, and got confused. She muttered to herself, "Ethan, it's not Ethan, but what's his name? Why do I only remember Ethan? He's only half a month old; how can I expect Lucy to find him a girlfriend?"
The joy in Lucinda's eyes suddenly vanished.
Mom's lucidity always lasted a moment.
Whenever they tried to capture that lucid moment, Mom would become confused again.
But this was a good start.
According to Keith, Janice only had one or two lucid moments at the Blue family mansion.
Now that she was in Pinehurst, far from the chaotic Blue family, no one was complaining about Janice, and she felt much better.
After Lucinda started calling her mom, she felt that she and Lucinda were peers and that she shouldn't be Lucinda's mother. But at the same time, she loved hearing Lucinda call her mom, as if she were really Lucinda's mother.
Janice knew Fiona was Lucinda's mother. Every time she made eye contact with Fiona, Janice would feel a little embarrassed.
She felt shameless for stealing someone else's daughter.
Every time her mood improved, her lucid moments would increase.
Everyone believed that as long as Lucinda was by Janice's side, Janice's mental state would gradually recover and she wouldn't be as abnormal as before.
Stefan squeezed his wife's hand.
Fiona also comforted her daughter in a gentle voice, saying, "Lucy, give yourself and your mom some time. She'll get better."
