Chapter 432
By the time she saw Rosalynn’s message, Rosalynn had already arrived at the hospital.
[Now? Is it that important?] Paige asked.
Rosalynn parked the car, walked toward the inpatient department while replying: [Business secret,
don’t ask too many questions.]
Paige was putting on a facial mask, so she sent a voice message back, “Got it. Drive carefully, watch
your step when getting in and out of the car, and stay safe”
Rosalynn replied, “Hm.”
Paige thought to herself, she’s becoming more and more like a domineering CEO, this cold and aloof
feeling.
She soon arrived at Granny Owens’s room.
The door was open, and she gently rapped on it.
The caregiver immediately called out excitedly. “Ms. Jared is here!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRosalynn walked in, and Granny Owens got up immediately. “Kid, why did you come so late?”
“Theard Granny wasn’t feeling well, so I came to see you.” Rosalynn spoke gently and said to the
caregiver, “You can go rest.”
The caregiver left the room.
In the quiet room, only Rosalynn and Granny Owens remained.
“I’m fine, just my blood pressure is a bit high, don’t worry.” Granny Owens looked pale and didn’t look
like she was okay at all.
“Granny, has Peyton called you?” Rosalynn asked directly.
Granny Owens lowered her head, “I’m old and still causing trouble for Paige..”
“What did she say to you?” Rosalynn gently asked, holding her icy hand.
Granny Owens kept her head down, “She told me everything.”
“It’s okay, just tell me what she said verbatim.” Rosalynn gently prompted.
Granny Owens’s first call from Peyton came after breakfast.
She was feeling much better today and was in good mood.
Peyton’s phone number wasn’t saved on her cell, but since she was a guest lecturer at a university,
she would often receive calls from random
students.
She would answer the calls in case they had important matters to discuss
After answering the phone, she introduced herself as usual.
There was a brief silence on the line before the caller said, “Mom.”
After many years, Granny Owens still remembered the voice of her ex–daughter–in–law.
“Peyton? Is it you? How are you? How’s your health?” Granny Owens was genuinely happy.
But the very next moment…
“Mom, can you persuade Paige not to keep messing around?” Peyton said in a low voice, with a
reproachful tone.
Granny Owens was a little surprised, “What’s wrong with Paige?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It was the grandmother of my stepson’s fiancée who accidentally hurt you. We heard you’re okay, and
since we’re all family, we wanted to let it go. But Paige insists on making a stand and pursuing
responsibility… I brought along Paige when I remarried, and our lives and her tuition to study abroad
were all provided by the Sutton family. My stepson is almost forty and still unmarried, and he finally
found a suitable match… If Paige’s actions ruin it, how will we suppose to face the elder Suttons?”
Granny Owens, ever kind and compassionate, felt uneasy after hearing this.
She knew about Paige’s temper and spent the entire morning thinking about how to broach the subject
of dropping the matter.
However, before she had the chance to, Palge had rushed off to work.
Peyton’s second phone call came. Knowing she hadn’t said anything yet, Peyton even accused her, “If
you don’t want to help, just say so, instead of wasting everyone’s time!” before hanging up.
Granny Owers was heartbroken. The last thing she wanted was for Paige to be mistreated in her new
home.
“That night, Peyton called me again, saying… she accused me of urging Paige to cut ties with her! How
could I? Why would I ever?”
