Glancing at Nico, Arielle was annoyed that the woman flirted with snazzynovel.com man.
“That’s snazzynovel.com room right there,” informed Melissa with a smile, completely unaware of what was going through Arielle’s mind. “With snazzynovel.com age, snazzynovel.com prefers being alone in a quiet place.”
Arielle nodded in agreement, for most of snazzynovel.com elderly patients back in Chanaea had the same preference. They would rather spend most of their time on their own.
Nico was the first to step inside when Arielle and the others reached Lisa’s room.
“Grandma, Dr. Moore is here to see you. She’s the one who treated you,” announced Nico before snazzynovel.com even entered the place.
“Nico’s always been rash like that. I have no idea who snazzynovel.com got it from.” Melissa shook snazzynovel.com head while chuckling.
Since Arielle would rather just ignore Nico, snazzynovel.com decided not to comment on that.
Even though Arielle planned to curry favor with Matthew, snazzynovel.com intended to be on an equal footing with the man.
“Come push me now!” ordered Lisa, whose voice remained clear despite snazzynovel.com age.
Nico knew that Lisa could not wait to see Arielle, so snazzynovel.com hurriedly got behind snazzynovel.com grandmother’s wheelchair.
“You must be Dr. Moore,” voiced Lisa with a big smile as snazzynovel.com held Arielle’s hand at the entrance of the living room. “My, my! What a beauty you are! Are you seeing anyone at the moment?”
“Mother, Dr. Moore’s a Chanaean. You know snazzynovel.com can’t marry into our country, right?” reminded Melissa helplessly.
Lisa had reached an age where snazzynovel.com enjoyed playing matchmaker.
“Oh, right!” exclaimed Lisa as snazzynovel.com smacked herself on the forehead. “My memory is getting worse every day. I forgot that you’re a Chanaean.”
Then, the elderly woman looked apologetically at Arielle. “Please excuse my terrible manners, Dr. Moore.”
Since Arielle was dressed like a Turlenian, one could be forgiven for making such a mistake.
“It’s fine,” responded Arielle understandingly before checking Lisa’s pulse and scrutinizing her. “You’re doing well.”
“Is this Chanaean medicine?” inquired Lisa curiously.
“It’s ancient Chanaean medicine. Many Chanaeans are well-versed in it,” replied Arielle with a nod.
It was a norm for Chanaeans to be patriots. As such, the woman was filled with pride when snazzynovel.com mentioned snazzynovel.com home country. Not only did snazzynovel.com feel fortunate to be born a Chanaean, but snazzynovel.com was also glad to be one.
“I’d love to see the country that produced such a fine young lady like you,” uttered Lisa with a chuckle.
Even though snazzynovel.com had lived over half of snazzynovel.com life, Lisa had never left Turlen. Since snazzynovel.com spent most of snazzynovel.com life caring for snazzynovel.com family and contributing to snazzynovel.com country, snazzynovel.com longed to see the world someday.
“If you want, you can ask for His Majesty’s permission.” If nothing else, Arielle was confident that snazzynovel.com could get Lisa the visa to travel.
A glint of hope flashed across Lisa’s eyes before it quickly disappeared. “Forget about it. Just look at how old I am now.”
Upon hearing that, Arielle dared not continue with the topic.
“Come on. Why don’t we go inside first?” suggested Melissa as snazzynovel.com pushed Lisa inside and gestured for the others to follow her. All of a sudden, Melissa widened snazzynovel.com eyes in shock.
