Gigi went up to Saule and asked with a worried look, "Are you feeling alright? I got really scared when you fainted that day. I'm so happy to see you're okay now."
"Yeah, I'm all better now." Saule grinned.
Pearl gently pulled them aside and took Saule upstairs to rest. "You've just gotten back from the hospital, and you need your rest. I'll come to get you when it's time to eat."
Gigi sensed that Pearl was acting a bit cold toward her and started to worry.
Pearl noticed but gave a friendly smile. "Gigi, why do you look upset?"
"No, I'm just really concerned about Aunt Saule. So, I... Oh, it's good you're home now. I've just finished cooking. Let's eat."
Gigi smiled and led them to the dining table, then returned to the kitchen to bring some more food out. "I'll bring Aunt Saule's food to her in a bit."
Pearl picked up a potato and said calmly, "No, I'll do that later."
"Pea, why do I feel you've been acting cold to me since you got back?" Gigi looked sad.
Pearl felt colder inside but said, "You're overthinking."
Stunned, Gigi stopped talking.

This news, along with an old scandal about Saule, caused a big stir. People gossiped that Richard's uncle had assaulted Saule, making Richard and Pearl cousins.
