Chapter 1240 Reuben’s Condition
Chapter 1240 Reuben’s Condition
“Mr. Reuben, what are you saying? Marie and I are closer than sisters. I’ve been coming to the Whitman residence to play since I was a child, and you’ve
always treated me like one of your own.
“I was just worried people would say I was overreaching. Now that the Wray family has risen, I finally feel confident enough not to worry about that,” Lynette spoke skillfully.
People tended to value family ties more as they aged, and Reuben was no exception.
He used to have his wife, Isabella Gomez, and grandchildren for company in Quaint Villa. After the many incidents, the house had become much quieter.
Now, hearing Lynette’s words, a flicker of emotion crossed his eyes.
Just then, Marlon returned home. He seemed like he brought a lot of news. However, he realized something and stopped short when he saw Lynette.
On the contrary, Lynette greeted him warmly, “Marlon, you’re back.”
Marlon smiled faintly. “Yes.”
“Marlon, have you been busy lately?” Lynette was trying to fish for information.
Marlon, however, had no intention of discussing work. He merely nodded slightly before turning to Reuben. “Dad, how have you been feeling recently?”
“Not bad,” Reuben replied. Though in truth, his health had been declining.
Reuben knew that everyone must face death eventually. No one could stay in this world forever as they grew older.
