"I brought Abelard here for a checkup. I didn't expect to bump into you here!" Heather said.
Carolina smiled and said politely, "What a coincidence. Is Mr. Bowles' health check all good?"
"Yep, he's pretty fit!" Heather said.
"That's great!" Carolina said.
After a bit of chit-chat, the elevator finally arrived, and a few people walked in.
To break the awkward silence, Carolina started some small talk, "How old is your grandson this year?"
"Twenty-seven." Heather said.
Carolina chuckled and said politely, "He's still quite young."
Heather glanced at Keira, then at her own grandson, showing a bit of helplessness, "He's not that young anymore, he should consider finding an obedient wife to look after him. We can't always take care of him."
Carolina laughed, "Maybe his true love hasn't arrived yet."
"Beauty, hottie, wifey." Abelard was guarded by two bodyguards, but he was still staring at Keira, standing there cluelessly.
Keira glared at him in disgust. What a moron!
Finally, the elevator stopped at the first floor. Keira heaved a sigh of relief, clung to Viviana's arm and walked out of the elevator against the wall, fearing that Abelard would suddenly pounce on her.
They all went their separate ways at the hospital entrance. Viviana looked at Abelard's back in disgust and couldn't help but make a comment, "He's so disgusting. Is he really okay? He even wants to marry a well-matched rich girl. What qualifications does he have?"
