Kathleen had arrived at the Yoeger residence.
This morning, Frances had already moved in.
Giselle was always by Frances' side. Seeing her there, Kathleen felt more at ease.
Having seen that Kathleen had returned, Frances clasped Kathleen's hands. “I heard that you were called to the set last night and have been busy till now.”
Kathleen knew that Giselle was
covering for her.
“Well, the crew have been in a hurry to wrap things up,” Kathleen explained.
“Then you shouldn't be too concerned about us. I reckon you should come over when you've got yourself sorted out,” said Frances fretfully.
“Granny, is Yareli at home?” Kathleen asked coldly.
“I haven't seen her all day,” replied Frances. “Do you have business with her?”
“Yes, I need to see her.” Kathleen was not too keen on telling Frances the truth, lest the latter felt worried.
Then I'll give her a call.” Frances took out her mobile phone.
“Don't worry about it, Granny. We can talk when she gets back.” Kathleen continued, “I still have to work after dinner.”
“Okay.” The old woman nodded and said, “I'll have the housekeepers prepare dinner right away.”
Kathleen hummed in response.
“By the way, I have prepared a room for you to stay in.” With that, Frances tugged at her hand again. “I'll show you.”
Naturally, she was not going to make things difficult by letting Kathleen stay in Nicolette's old room.
After all, the Yoeger residence was huge. It was not difficult to prepare a new room for Kathleen's stay.
Kathleen followed Frances from behind.
When they arrived at the new room, Kathleen seemed surprised to see that it was newly furnished.
She had not expected Frances to spend the whole day making this happen.
“Thank you, Granny,” said Kathleen gratefully.
“Ah, well... I have not managed to raise your mother for a single day,” sighed Frances wistfully. ’’But fortunately, God sent you to my side to let me make up for my regret.”
Frances hugged Kathleen. “From now on, my house is your house too, dear child.”
Kathleen nodded.
“I also had someone prepare your brother's room. When he comes back, he can move right in.” Frances smiled and said, “With you and Charlie by my side, I can pass on without regrets.”
“Granny, you will definitely live a long life,” said Kathleen indignantly.
Frances laughed when she heard this. “Yes, I still want to see you and your brother building your own family and flourishing!”
Kathleen smiled slightly. “Yeah.”
“Come on, let's go downstairs for dinner.” Frances decided to drag
Kathleen downstairs.
After dinner, Frances went back to her room because she had other matters to attend to.
Now that they were alone, Giselle looked at Kathleen. “What happened to you last night?”
Kathleen shook her head passively. “I’m fine.”
“Kathleen, I think they might be here,” Giselle said solemnly. “I moved here with Old Mrs. Yoeger today, but I kept having the feeling that we were being watched.”
“Your intuition has always been sharp,” Kathleen said thoughtfully. “I just don't know who is here this time.”
Giselle sighed. “You know there aren't many people in the Blissful Sect who can give me the creeps like this.”
“Could it be that he's here?” Kathleen frowned.
“I'll look into it,” replied Giselle.
“Giselle, you're not from the Blissful Sect. I think you should drop it.” Kathleen frowned.
Giselle was planted by Charles and not the Blissful Sect.
“It's okay. Your brother asked me to investigate this matter,” Giselle explained.
“Then, be careful. Call me if there's anything.” Kathleen was worried.
“Don’t worry.” Giselle smiled lightly. “Don't forget, I'm very adept at protecting myself."
Kathleen nodded lightly.
“I'll be off then.” She got into her car.
