“Grandma, what's wrong?” Abigail bent down, checking.

Diana just shook her head.

“How about you come with us to the airport? You will have time to talk on the
way,” Philip suggested quietly.

Diana waved her hand. “The timing isn't right, Philip. They're in a hurry. I don't
want to get in the way.”

“But-

“No, Philip. I don’t want to burden their minds. Besides, this is my fault. I'm the
one who has to bear the consequences.”

While Abigail scratched her temple, Barbara took Diana's hand. ” Grandma, don’t
worry. As soon as my mother’s problem is resolved, we will definitely see you
again. You can make everything straight.”

Diana nodded in resignation. “Yes, now go. Don't keep the others

waiting.”

Philip and Barbara nodded. After hugging Diana and saying goo to Abigail, they
ran after the others. Diana could only look at them with sad eyes.

“Grandma, are you okay?" Abigail whispered after a while. Philip an Barbara
were out of sight, but Diana was still looking in the same.

direction.

Diana shook her head. “This is what happens when you don’t appreciate those
who love you.”

While Abigail was pensive, someone who had been watching them since earlier
approached. “Excuse me, Ma'am. May I ask your

something? Wasn't it Frank Harper and his family who were with you?” Diana
turned her head with her eyes still wet. “Yes, what's up?”

“So it's true?” The eccentrically dressed middle-aged woman swung her fist into
her palm. “I knew it. It was them. I should have just cursed that woman straight
away. She dared to separate Frank Harper from his mother. While in fact, she
has two children. She should understand that mother and child cannot be
separated, instead of seeking sensation by causing trouble.”

Unexpectedly, Diana hit the woman's arm. “How dare you curse my
granddaughter-in-law like that? Do you really know her?”

The woman stared wide-eyed at Diana. “Granddaughter-in-law?”

“If you don’t understand anything, it's better to just shut up. What good is it for
you to be incited by the news?”

The woman started to step back. However, Diana grabbed her by the

sleeve.

“Kara is soft-hearted and merciful. She likes peace. She is even

willing to take the blame to avoid conflict. You are accusing her of seeking
sensation, of causing trouble, huh? How dare you?”

“Grandma,” Abigail shook Diana’s arm, “please stop. Everyone is

watching.”

Diana snorted. Instead of lowering her voice, she just got louder.

“Good! You all should know. Kara is completely innocent. She lov Frank sincerely
and Frank does too. Whether there are obstacles o not is not a problem for
them.”

While looking around, Diana gritted her teeth. “And one more thing. My grandson
is smart. He knows when he is being deceived or not. He knows how to act. You
have no right to accuse him of being instigated by Kara, because Kara never
incited him.”

“Grandma, your blood pressure will rise again.”

“These people need to be reminded, Abi. They shouldn't believe random news.
“Okay, okay.” The stranger nodded. “I admit I was wrong. Now please take off my
clothes. In a moment my daughter and son-in-law will be here,” she whispered at
the end.

Pressing her lips with her chin, Diana let go. Then, her index finger was pointed
swiftly. “If you don’t want to be embarrassed, don’t make other people
embarrassed.”

“Yeah, yeah.” The woman stepped back then turned to the waiting chair at the
corner. Her lips were cursing. Diana scoffed in disbelief.

“Grandma, shall we go home now?" Abigail guided Diana to stop looking at the
woman.

While walking, Diana massaged her temples. Her head was spinning thinking
about how many people out there were insulting Kara.

Dinner time was still long. Abigail hadn't even started cooking. However, Diana
was already sitting in the dining room. Her gaze sad, her shoulders were listless.
Occasionally, she glanced around the empty chairs around the table.

“Yesterday they were still here. This morning they were still with me. Why did I
waste that time?”

Taking a deep breath, Diana rubbed her neck. At that moment, her gaze fell to
the edge of the bench beside her. Kara had only eaten there once without
interruption. Remembering that, her heart became restless again.

“What a poor girl,” she regretted.

Grandma,” Abigail called softly, “are you still thinking about them?”

Diana blinked. Seeing Abigail's pitying gaze, her lips trembled. “No. They can
definitely handle that problem. They're great people.”

“Are you thinking about Sophia then?”

Diana shook her head quickly. “No. Why should I think about that sly girl? She
even went away without saying goodbye.”

“So?” Abigail took her seat.

The twitching of Diana's chin became more intense. “I was thinking why I was so
stupid? How many days were they here? We should have made a lot of
memories together.”

Diana turned to the window. Her gaze was dreamy.

“I should be the one showing them around the farm, introducing them to our
horses, showing the kids a few tricks.”

Suddenly, Diana laughed dryly. The mist in her eyes thickened.

“They must be very happy if I did that. They would laugh and hug me tightly. They
would fill my days with their cute voices and beh And also..."

Diana took a breath, filling hope back into her lungs. The corne her lips turned up
slightly.

“I could take them to the orphanage, introduce them as my great- grandchildren,
introduce Frank and Jery as my grandchildren, and Kara as my granddaughter-
in-law.”

Abigail raised an eyebrow at the wrong name. “Do you mean Jeremy, Grandma?”
Diana blinked. Realizing her mistake, she sighed sadly. “I even got my

grandson's name wrong.”

Not wanting Diana's tears to fall, Abigail grabbed her hand. “Grandma, I don't
think we can stay here. How about we go after them?”

Diana's eyebrows pulled into her forehead. “Are you crazy? Who takes care of
the orphanage and the farm?”

“It's not just the two of us here, Grandma. There are others. They'll understand.
You've never been on leave in your life.”

Diana's eyes trembled. There was hope reflected there. However, after one blink,
the twinkle faded.

“No, Abi. They are busy taking care of other things. Let me wait for them here.”
“In sorrow?”

Shaking her head faintly, Diana got up from her chair. “Please prepare dinner. I'm
hungry.”

Diana knew Abigail was breathing heavily. However, she kept walking out of the
dining room. She didn’t want to bother people anymore with her unstable
emotions.

While contemplating, Diana turned to another door. When she opened it, she
clutched her chest again.
