Veronica, who loved porridge, was actually reminded of the porridge prepared by Matthew as she ate t
he porridge she cooked.
Although porridge was the only dish the jerk knew how to make, Veronica had to admit that the porridg
e he made was very tasty.
After she was done eating, she packed her stuff and went online to check the train tickets. She then po
ndered about it and ended up purchasing a ticket to go back to her hometown––Cabot Town, Lothian––
three days later.
By the time Veronica settled everything, it was almost 10 o‘clock.
At that instant, she
picked up her phone and was about to call Elizabeth to tell her that she did not wish to be involved in pl
anning Matthew and Tiffany‘s wedding, but her phone rang as Elizabeth had beat her to it.
“Grandma, I was just about to call you, but you actually beat me to it!”
Veronica smiled as she thought, What were the odds?
“Haha, really? You cheeky girl. If I don‘t call you first, there‘s no chance we‘ll be in a call together.”
Elizabeth laughed heartily from the other end of the line as she was in a very good mood.
“That‘s not true. I legit was about to call you to talk about something.”
“What is it?”“Grandma, well… I‘m heading back
to my hometown in a few days, so I can‘t help to plan Tiffany and Matthew‘s wedding anymore. So sorr
y about that.”
Veronica felt apologetic as she genuinely felt she had let Elizabeth down,
Though Elizabeth had saved Veronica‘s life multiple times, Veronica just wasn‘t capable enough to repa
y her kindness.
“Oh! I actually called to discuss this matter with you too. Where are you now? I‘!! come and find you,” El
izabeth replied.
“Oh, please don‘t. Where are you? I‘ll come and find you instead.”
“Im at the park where you saved me last time.”
“Alright, please wait for me. I‘ll be right there.”
After hanging up the call, Veronica changed into a sports attire and went straight to the park with her m
otorcycle.
20 minutes later, she met Elizabeth beside the lake in the park.
Veronica walked up to Elizabeth and greeted the latter with a bright smile. “Hello, Grandma!”
“Hey, Veronica. You‘re so quick to arrive! Haha…”
Catching sight of Veronica making her way toward
her, Elizabeth smiled kindly and reached out her hand to hold Veronica‘s. Then, she sighed and said, “I
asked you out to tell you something… My brain is not working as well these days compared to last time. That‘s why I said something silly like asking you to help plan for Tiffany and Matthew‘s wedding. Pleas
e don‘t be unhappy with me.”
At once, regret and guilt spread across Elizabeth‘s aging face as she continued holding Veronica‘s han
d tightly.
Veronica alertly noticed something was not right. Then, she recalled Elizabeth suddenly asking if she k
new where her youngest daughter was the last time they met. While putting the pieces together in her h
ead, Veronica asked, “Grandma, do you…”
Do you perhaps have Alzheimer‘s?
Veronica did not dare to ask the question as she was afraid to hurt Elizabeth‘s feelings.
However, Elizabeth shook her
head and heaved a deep sigh. Then, she held Veronica‘s hand and went to sit on a bench at the side. “
Yeah, I couldn‘t believe it at first too. But now, my brain is getting worse day by day, and I could easily f
orget things, so I have no choice but to accept the fact that I have Alzheimer‘s. Sure enough, one‘s gre
atest fear will come to pass.”
Now that the doubt Veronica had all this while was cleared, she was not too surprised but accepted the
truth calmly.
“When did you find out about this? Does Matthew know?”
“I found
out about it a few months ago, but I don‘t have the guts to tell Matthew.” Staring at Veronica with her gr
ay eyes, Elizabeth patted the back of her hand, “Promise me to not tell Matthew about this lest he will b
e worried. This child has already gone through a lot of suffering.”Elizabeth and Veronica sat in the park and had some heart–to–heart small talks.
Veronica played the role of an attentive listener while giving Elizabeth some responses from time to tim
e.
After chatting for quite a while Veronica asked, “Grandma, where‘s Mrs. Coleman? Didn‘t she come alo
ng with you?”
“Nah, I sent her back.”
“I see. Then please accompany me to buy some
drinking water from the store in front.” Veronica was worried about leaving Elizabeth alone here—
especially now that she knew the latter had Alzheimer‘s disease, all the more she had to take care of h
er.
“Don‘t worry. My brain is still working, so I won‘t go missing. Go ahead. I‘ll wait for you here.”
“Uhmm…”
Veronica hesitated, but on second thought, Elizabeth was just diagnosed with Alzheimer‘s disease a fe
w months ago, so her condition shouldn‘t be so serious that she would forget her way around.
As such, Veronica thought she shouldn‘t be overly worried about Elizabeth too lest it hurt her dignity.
“Alright. I‘ll go buy a bottle of water now.”
After exhorting Elizabeth to sit at the spot and wait for her return, Veronica went to the store at the park‘
s entrance to buy water.
While on the way, she received a call from Daniella. So, they had a small chat, but Veronica did not me
ntion anything about her plan to go home a few days later as she wanted to give them a surprise.However, when she returned to the bench where she and Elizabeth sat after buying water, Elizabeth w

She look out her phone and called Elizabeth. Almost immediately, the call gou connected.
“Grandma, where did you go?”
“Miss, do you know the owner of this phone? I just picked this phone up. Can you come and collect it?”
“What? Okay, okay. Where are you? I‘ll come and find you now.”
Frightened, Veronica placed the two bottles of mineral water on the bench and quickly ran to the northea

After expressing her gratitude to the man, she took the phone and continued searching for Elizabeth.
Nonetheless, she still failed to find Elizabeth after going through the entire park, so she went to the park

The call was not answered after quite some time.
Thereafter, she made another three calls to Matthew, and it was only then did he pick up the call. “What “Matthew, Grandma has gone missing. Earlier, she requested to meet me at Rivereast Park, but she we

Veronica let go of the personal grudge with Matthew and walked out of the park to ask the passers–
by if they had seen Elizabeth.
She described Elizabeth‘s appearance and features to tens of passersby, but no one had seen her.
