Sylvia sat in her wheelchair, her eyes lighting up as she heard the familiar footsteps. She looked up and waved with a warm smile.
"Sherilyn, come over here."
"Grandma," Sherilyn replied with a grin, making her way to Sylvia's side.
"Have a seat, dear."
"Sure." Sherilyn sat down, her gaze lingering on Sylvia's face. "You look so much better now, Grandma."
"Indeed," Sylvia nodded, her eyes twinkling as she squeezed Sherilyn's hand. "I've been feeling more energetic lately, just in time to help with your wedding plans, hmm?"
"Grandma?" Sherilyn was momentarily taken aback. How did Grandma know she was getting married? Her brother must have told her.
But Grandma organizing her wedding?
Sylvia didn't rush to explain. Instead, she glanced at Francis standing nearby.
"Yes, Grandma?" Francis understood the unspoken request and handed Sylvia a document folder.
Sylvia took it, opened it, and spread its contents in front of Sherilyn. There were two cards, several papers, and some property deeds.
"There's a million dollars in here," Sylvia tapped the cards lightly.
"Grandma?" Sherilyn was stunned, her eyes widening in disbelief.
"Yes," Sylvia smiled gently, "It's all for you... This building and these jewels, stored safely in the bank, are for you too. It's your dowry from Grandma."
The word "dowry" was emphasized, leaving Sherilyn speechless, her lips parted in surprise.
"And there's more," Sylvia said, glancing at Francis again.
Francis handed over a second folder. "Sherilyn, this is from your brother."
"What?"
Sherilyn's mind was swirling. More?
"Open it and see." Francis encouraged her with a smile.
