Chapter 310
There was no arrogance in his tone, only gratitude.
When Theodore heard James’ words, he quickly added, “Why don’t you add each other on WhatsApp? That way, it’ll be easier to discuss your mother’s condition later.
Sydney didn’t mind. She glanced at James.
He usually disliked adding strangers to his contacts, but since things had reached this point, he took out his phone and said politely, “Ms. Wilson, you don’t mind, do you?”
Sydney smiled. “Of course not.
After they exchanged contacts, she met Alan’s eyes, pressed her lips together, and said, “Then we’ll take our leave. Mr. Hutton, once everything’s settled, you can contact me directly.”
“Ms. Wilson.” Florence gripped the wheelchair’s armrests and asked, “Did you grow up in Jouleston?”
Her question made everyone in the room pause.
Sydney’s answer was vague. “More or less.”
She had come to Jouleston when she was five. That counted as growing up here.
James, afraid his mother might pry further, quickly interjected, “Ms. Wilson, I’ll see you out.”
“Alright.”
Sydney happened to have something she wanted to ask him. Once they stepped out of the lounge, she turned to him. “Mr. Hutton, about your mother’s legs… were they caused by a severe fall?”
She didn’t say the words “jumped from a building,” but from what she had seen, Theodore and Florence’s marriage seemed solid, and none of their four children appeared reckless. How could Florence have reached such despair?
Shock flickered in James’ eyes. Then he gave a complicated smile. “Ms. Wilson, your medical skills are remarkable. I believe even more now that you can heal my mother.
“As long as she begins to recover, rest assured, beyond what my father already promised, our family will certainly express further gratitude.”
