Chapter 102 The Nursing Home
“What?” Lola was shocked, “What nonsense are you talking about? The truth is you are shameless and
impose yourself on Byron!”
“I’m telling the truth. If you don’t believe it, you can check it.” Athena Дost her patience. “I will be
grateful if you let your son stop pestering me!”
After speaking, Athena hung up the phone.
Evie sat on the side.
Her mouth was widely opened due to shock
After a while, she said, “You are so cool! Well done, girl!”
Athena laughed helplessly.
“You heard it. I have to go to see Mrs. Alivia Crawford. You go to get busy. Don’t overthink.”
“You’re not the Crawford family’s maid. Why do you go to see Mrs. Alivia Crawford?” Evie muttered.
“She’s different.” Athena squeezed her fingers. “When I stay by her side, I can occasionally feel
Grandma.”
Evie was taken aback.
She hugged Athena and cried again.
Evie learned about what had happened to Athena five years ago from Baxter. She could imagine
Athena’s suffering and helplessness at that time.
It made her cry.
Athena calmed Evie down.
Then she drove to the nursing home in the suburbs.
She passed by a fruit shop.
The strawberries were so fresh and juicy. Athena knew that Madam Crawford liked to eat strawberries,
she bought some.
She got to the nursing home.
Madam Crawford just woke up from a nap.
She had a temper tantrum with the nurse like a child for some
reason.
“Miss Newton is here!”
The nurse looked up and saw Athena. She was so relieved and almost cried out, hallelujah.
“Mrs. Alivia Crawford, see who is coming?”
Madam Crawford turned her head.
When she saw Athena, she immediately smiled.
“Athena is here!”
Athena also laughed. She walked over and squatted in front of her. “Let me see. Which lady is making
a fuss and throwing a temper tantrum?”
“Not me!”
Madam Crawford denied it seriously.
The nurse let out a sigh of relief.
Madam Crawford happily shook Athena’s hand.
Athena held the strawberries in her right hand and the Madam Crawford’s hand in her left hand.
Madam Crawford’s expression changed drastically.
Athena wanted to take her hand back, but Madam Crawford
held it tightly. Then she burst into tears. “You got hurt! You got hurt!”
Athena was panicked.
“It doesn’t hurt. Madam Crawford, look what I bought for you?”
Athena wanted to distract her attention.
Madam Crawford was sobbing. She looked at the strawberries and slowly stopped crying.
“I’m going to wash some!”
The nurse hurriedly took the strawberries. She picked a few. big, plump ones, rinsed them, and blotted Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
the water. Then she brought them back.
Athena took one and fed it to the old lady.
Madam Crawford took a bite and said with a smile, “Sweet!”
She ate two strawberries and became happy.
Athena breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly…
After eating the strawberries, Madam Crawford held Athena’s left hand pitifully, put it to her lips, and
blew gently.
Athena was stunned.
The wrinkled hand caressed the top of her head.
“I will be very gentle. It’s not painful!”
Athena’s eyes turned red instantly.
She pressed her cheek against Madam Crawford’s lap, covered
with a thin blanket.
“It really doesn’t hurt anymore…
The nurse’s eyes also turned red for no reason.
The Crawford family had a flourishing population. They were willing to spend money on Madam
Crawford. Everything she had was the best.
However, no one was as close to Madam Crawford as Athena.
It was sunshine in the afternoon.
It was warm but not burning.
Athena put Madam Crawford in the wheelchair and pushed her out. She found a quiet place and read
to her.
Madam Crawford was muddled sometimes.
But she liked others to read to her.
The quiet moment was rare.
“Miss!”
While reading, a little girl ran over.
Athena closed the book. “What’s wrong?”
“The little ball fell into the water. Can you pick it up for me?”
The little girl asked childishly.
Athena thought of the baby in her womb.
It would talk to her in such a childish voice in the future. Athena
was very happy to think about it.
