While talking, I heard a sweet voice saying, "Grandma, I''m hungry!"
I saw her joyfully running in, tumbling her little legs as she ran.
She was happily surprised when she found me in the living room. She turned to face me quickly and said, "Mom, why did you return so early today? No social event today?"
She threw herself into my arms, kissing me.
I reached out and rubbed her head. "Why did my babye backte today?"
She raised her little face and said, "There was traffic on the way. The driver said the road was blocked due to an ident, so we waited on the road, and that''s why we came backte." She enunciated every syble.
Then she climbed into my arms, hugged my neck, and didn''t even mention hunger. I hadn''t spent much time with hertely.
Jenny walked in carrying Ava''s backpack. Holding two things alone seemed quite strenuous for her. After all, she was just a bit older than Ava.
I quickly told Ava, "You have to carry your backpack from now on. Don''t make your sister carry it for you."
Ava quickly exined, "Jenny wanted to carry it for me. Because I was starving and didn''t have the strength!"
My mom quickly smiled and walked toward the kitchen. "Okay, we''ll have dinner right away."
I took both of them to wash their hands.
Ava ate a lot during dinner, seemingly starved. I asked her, " Did you not have lunch at school today?"
She puffed up her cheeks like a hamster and said, "It wasn''t tasty. It was some kind of pancake. I don''t like it!" "What pancake?" I asked her.
Jenny quickly chimed in, "It''s a sweet pancake! And there was soup, too!"
Iughed and looked at Ava. "You can''t be a picky eater, okay? Did Jenny eat?"
"I''m not picky, and I finished everything!" Jenny said it obediently.
Just after finishing the meal, Grayson''s call came in. There must be something important for him to call now.
Once I answered the call, Grayson said, "Ms. Chloe, I''ve investigated Nichs Mcin."
Sure enough, there was a situation. I left the dining room and asked, "How is it?"
"He got released from prison, and it seems to be rted to Liora and Felix Vanson! The conclusion is medical parole!" Grayson said on the other end. "Rted to Liora?" My heart sank, and I quickly asked, "So, Adide is likely rted to Liora?"
"Adide is Nichs''s niece! Since Nichs''s parents died young, he was raised by his elder brother. After receiving academic support from his brother, hepleted high school and spent four years in the army. Later, he joined the municipal car fleet.
"This person is opportunistic, always going with the flow, and finally became Wesley McGuire''s driver."Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
"Okay. When he first joined thepany, he did bring up some of this," I said.
"He admitted he tampered with the car, which caused the death of a woman in the car ident. He was sent to prison, and the car was totaled.
"However, ording to our investigation, Wesley had covertly arranged for his release from prison, and Liora took care of the medical procedures that proved his illness."
I was shocked and speechless. "No wonder Laurie mentioned that the car ident caused quite a stir! Butter, it all disappeared! It seems there''s a problem. Wesley McGuire was behind his release?"
"Indeed! In light of this, we investigated Wesley. At the time of that car ident, the woman who died in the car was Wesley''s lover. Wesley arranged for Nichs to take the me to settle the matter!"
Grayson continued, "So, it caused a lot of buzz then! Moreover, the woman who died was a ssmate of Liora!"
"Oh my! Liora seems to be involved in everything."
Now I understood the twists and turns in this matter. "No wonder Nichs came to me and didn''t mention Wesley!"
"If Nichs hadn''te to us, no one would have paid attention to this matter! After all, Wesley has already been moved and is doing well in a different ce!" Grayson said.
He added, "I think Wesley Mcguire is probably unaware of this. If he finds out, he''ll be furious! So, we still have some use for this situation."
"What do you mean?" I asked.
