"Laura, be honest. Is the reason your sister's boyfriend insists on breaking up with her because of you?"
As soon as the man spoke, Laura's once icy demeanor suddenly softened.
She raised an eyebrow, the corners of her lips lifting slightly into a smile that seemed both playful and mocking.
She asked, "Do you really have to talk about this in front of Grandpa's hospital room?"
"..."
The man's expression changed slightly, looking a bit embarrassed.
"You know this is your grandpa's hospital room, right? How many times have you been here since he was admitted? Now you show up, just to put on a show, isn't it?"
Next to them, Sophia's mother refused to let it go, angrily saying, "Don't use your grandpa as a shield. Let's keep it to the point. If you hadn't sabotaged your sister's relationships multiple times, feeling guilty like a thief, you wouldn't even visit during the New Year. Do we need to ambush you here?"
Laura understood, and so did Nora Scott.
