When Rosalie anved at Reba’s ce, it was around ten o’clock.
Rebys was Wing in bed, wearing her reading sses and engrossed

Spotting Rosalie, she quickly put down her book and smiled warmly. Rose, you’re here.”
“Grandma.” Rosalie smiled back, sitting beside Reba’s bed. “What are you reading**
“It’s a romance novel,” Reba replied.
Rosalie peeked at the cover out of curiosity. Indeed, it was one of those girly romance novels.
She eximed, “Grandma, you’re actually reading a romance novel?”
“What’s wrong with that? Just because I’m old, I can’t read romance novels anymore? Reba’s
tone was serious, but she didn’t actually seem angry. “Can only young people like you read them?
Do you look down on me, an old woman?”
Though Reba sounded stern, she wasn’t genuinely upset.
“Oh, Grandma, that’s not what I meant at all,” Rosalie reassured her quickly. “I didn’t expect you to
still have such a youthful heart. That’s wonderful! You’re my favorite kind of grandma.”
Rosalie actually quite liked people who grew more childlike as they aged. She felt that such souls
were more interesting than those who pretended to be mature and worldly, regardless of their age.
She hoped that when she grew old and couldn’t walk anymore, she could still read a romance
novel. When she read about the male lead

But would she like Reba, end up sitting alone in bed?
Reba’s husband had passed away over a decade ago, and Rosalie hadn’t even met him. She
remembered that when Reba adopted her ten years ago, she wasn’t as old as she was then.
Back then, Reba was still in good health. Over the years, time had taken its toll. Reba’s back
had be more hunched, her face more lined, her hair alm stpletely white.
Rosalie suddenly felt very sad.
Everyone had to leave the world at some point. In the long river of history, everyone had to go.
Thinking about Reba’s age. Rosalie suddenly felt waves of pain in her heart. She couldn’t
imagine what it would be like when Reba left. She couldn’t bear the thought of losing Reba.
Lost in her thoughts, Rosalie felt her nose tingle and her eyes suddenly turn red.
Reba looked at Rosalie with concern. She took Rosalie’s hand, and asked worriedly. “What’s
wrong? Did Theo bully you? Tell me if he did! I’ll teach him a lesson for you.”
“Grandma………” Rosalie rushed into Reba’s arms, and carefully
embraced her. “I just suddenly missed you. Seeing you makes me so
happy.”
Rosalie didn’t voice her worries. The day woulde sooner orter, and she believed Reba
could handle it. After all, with age came a certain eptance of many things, even death.
But as the one left behind, Rosalie would be heartbroken.
For Rosalie, Reba was the closest person in the world to her. If it weren’t for Reba, Rosalie
couldn’t imagine where she would be
now.
Reba treated her like a real granddaughter, even better than her biological grandson.
There was no blood rtion between them. Although Rosalie’s parents died in an ident at the

Technically, it would have been understandable if Reba hadn’t adopted her.
But Reba did it anyway, giving Rosalie a good future and a new chance at life. So, no matter
what happened, Rosalie always prioritize her first.
