---- The faces of Maggie and the others went pale instantly. "W-what? How could this happen?!" The director exined, "Over the years, Sally has been deeply repressed, with little appetite, That kind of prolonged condition has seriously damaged her health. Her immune system is almost ---- entirelypromised." "Then-then-" "We''ll need to do further tests to confirm, but at her current state, if things continue to worsen, I''m afraid-" She didn''t finish, but everyone understood what she meant.
She didn''t have much time left. Old Madam Miller staggered and nearly copsed. After leaving the facility and returning home, she locked herself in her room, utterly devastated. But no matter how heavy their hearts were, life still had to go on. It was gettingte, and though no one had much appetite, they still needed to eat. Maggie took her phone and drove to the nearby supermarket to buy groceries. She wandered the aisles in a daze and went to the checkout with a few items.
Just as she was about to leave, a voice called out, "Cousin." ---- Maggie turned around. It was Jane. She gave her a polite nod. Jane smiled upon seeing her but paused when she noticed Maggie''s paleplexion. "Maggie... are you okay?" Maggie shook her head, not wanting to exin. After checking out, she carried her bags and prepared to leave. Jane hesitated, then still said, "Um... Mr. Wilson is having dinner at the Brown family''s house right now-with the family." Maggie understood.
She meant that Franklin was with Julia''s family that evening. Her expression didn''t change, but her grip on the bags tightened slightly. She let out a soft "Mm," then turned and left without another word. That night, the atmosphere in the Miller household was heavy. Maggie locked herself in her room, reading. It wasn''t until almost eleven that she looked up and realized her phone had run out of battery at some point. She plugged it in and went to take a shower.
---- After she came out of the bathroom and checked her phone again, she saw several missed calls. She paused when she saw Paul''s name, then called him back first. Paul picked up quickly. "Miss Miller, you finally answered. I just received a call from Mr. Wilson''swyer. He said all the paperwork regarding property matters has been finalized. You can officially proceed with the divorce."
