Ash leaned back in her chair. Her previous cold and calm expression had gone, replaced by exhaustion and confusion.

“You should leave this project to another PIC after this phase. You can put aside the things at hand for the time being and accompany your grandma. Life is limited, but memories are not.

“You and I can’t avoid birth, old age, illness and death. The only thing we can do is to make infinite happiness in a limited time.”

Calvert’s voice revealed a touch of reassurance. Although it was a bitter truth, Ash felt she was indeed comforted. All this time, she had been making efforts without catching a break. She hardly rests. Hence, it might be a good idea to enjoy days

off.

However, she was still worried about the Funtime Games. She felt irresponsible about leaving while her coworkers were struggling.

She lowered her gaze and was silent for a while. “Okay, let me think about it. I think I can hand the company to my brother. After all, he’s always ready to help.

‘But will Grandma be mad if she knows about this?”

Calvert seemed to be thinking about something, and after a while, he said, “You haven’t even tried yet. How would you know you would fail? I thought you were fearless.

It seems even you have a vulnerable side. I’m curious. Has there been someone outside of your family who made you lower your guards before?”

Ash sighed. She had been exposed. Sofia was the weakness. After all, Ash wouldn’t be where she was without her.

She did not refute but nodded in agreement. “Okay, I will try. If there is nothing else, I’ll go back to work. I need to do other hings.

Ash returned home in the evening. She saw Sofia cooking yet another big table of food.

Jewel, today I’m making your favorite beef stew. It may not be as tasty as the one I usually make, but I hope it’s to your liking. If there’s any feedback, feel free to tell me,”

Ash looked at the table full of dishes and all kinds of pastries. She was speechless, and her eyes slowly moved to the skinny Sofia. The Sofia in her memory would probably never return.

Sofia did not know the emotions in Ash’s heart. She waved to her lovingly. “What are you still doing over there? Come on, taste if my cooking skills have regressed.”

Ash raised her chin slightly, holding back her tears, and smiled. “Grandma, your stew is the best in the world.”

Ash took a piece of beef and stuffed it into her mouth. Revealing a happy smile, tears flashed in her eyes. “You said that your craftsmanship has regressed, but I think you’re being modest”

“It’s tastier and softer. The fragrance of the spices mixed perfectly. I love it!”

Sofia was overjoyed. “I’m happy to hear that, Dear. Anyway, why did you come back so early today? You know? I took the pill you gave me and felt much better.”

She lied. Sofia was deceiving her and Ash knew. In the morning, she found a bloody paper towel in the bathroom.

Moreover, Sofia’s body had been weakened to a terrifying state. She was dying and couldn’t walk properly. Regardless, she wouldn’t show Ash how weak she was. She didn’t want to be a burden in Ash’s mind.

Grandma, can we go out for a walk after the weekend? I have about two weeks off. Let’s go for a walk together, okay?” Ash inally chose to listen to Calvert’s advice. In a limited time, it was more likely to leave more memories, which allowed Sofia o feel happy.

Ash thought Sofia would hesitate and refuse, but she didn’t expect her to agree. “Okay, we’ll go for a walk with Calvert.”

Grandma, you’ve only met him once, and this is a trip for the two of us. Isn’t it enough to have me accompany you?” Ash >outed like a child.

Sofia smiled and explained, “Of course, we can go out. But the more people, the merrier. Also, I want to see if he can be elied on.

Let’s ask if he can accompany us out for a walk. If something happens at his end, he can leave early.” Sofia made rrangements.

Ash heard the determination in her tone and had no choice but to agree. After all, it was unusual for Sofia to approve her dea immediately.

At the Snider family’s residence, Dorothy saw Ash and got up to greet her. “Ash, you’re here! You haven’t been here for

nd I miss you.”

Dorothy took Ash’s hand and looked around carefully. “Ash, why do you look tired? Have you been under too much pressure ecently?

Or did someone mess around with you?” Dorothy frowned and asked softly, “Tell me who made you like this. No matter vho it is, I won’t let you be wronged!”

Ash shook her head. “No, I’ve been working a lot recently, Grandma. My schedule was full, and I couldn’t visit you. I’m so

orry!”

Dorothy shook her head. “Don’t be too hard on yourself, Dear. How can I blame you? Ash, your face looks tired, and I think you’ve lost weight. Did that brat make you like this?”

He has been elusive recently. He returns home late at night and is gone every morning. We live under the same roof, but I can’t see his face!”

Calvert was also busy with his business.
