Chapter 284

Although Ashley and Tanya appeared together at the Quinlan University seminar, they had absolutely no interaction throughout that day.

Around three or four in the afternoon that day, Ashley and Tim prepared to leave Quinlan University.

As Professor Louis and the principal saw them off, Professor Louis invited again:”There’s another seminar in the city on Saturday, I wonder if the two of you…”

Hearing this, Ashley’s steps paused, her gaze happening to fall on Vivian not far away.

She retracted her gaze, pursed her lips, and then said, “Sorry, I have important matters to handle on Saturday, so I won’t be attending.”

After saying goodbye to Professor Louis and the principal, and once the car drove out of Quinlan University, Tim then said, “Your emotions just now weren’t quite right, did something happen?”

Just now when the Saturday arrangements were mentioned, he immediately noticed the emotional fluctuation when her gaze landed on Vivian. There were outsiders present just now, so he didn’t feel it was appropriate to ask too much.

Ashley lowered her gaze, saying indifferently, “Saturday is my mother’s birthday.”

Tim’s voice faltered upon hearing this.

Ashley’s mother has been staying in the Nursing Home year-round, entirely thanks to Vivian and her family. No wonder Ashley showed such emotion when facing Vivian and Tanya just now.

After a while, he finally said, “What are your thoughts regarding the Mond Family and the Holdens?”

Ashley clenched her hand into a fist, “I don’t want them to have an easy time, but…”

But they currently have Chase protecting them, so even if Eternal is developing quite well now, it would still be extremely difficult to touch them. Even if Ashley didn’t say it aloud, Tim understood this point.

He comforted her, “What goes around comes around. I believe we will always find an opportunity, don’t be too disheartened.”

Ashley:”Mm.”

On Saturday, after Ashley and Steve finished making the cake themselves, they drove to the Nursing Home.

Haven’t seen her in a while, Lucy looked even thinner than before.

Watching the Nursing Home staff enthusiastically celebrate Lucy’s birthday, Lucy, though the center of the crowd, seemed to be miles away, completely oblivious to the lively scene and everyone’s well wishes for her. Ashley and Amanda felt their hearts ache, terribly upset.

Just then, the doctor walked over. Seeing their pained expressions, a look of reluctance appeared on her face too, but after two seconds of silence, she still spoke: This morning, we gave Lucy a physical examination and found that her condition has worsened significantly. Several organs in her body have shown clear signs of failure…”

Upon hearing this, Ashley, Amanda, and the others’ faces instantly turned pale:”How, how could this be?!”

The doctor said?Over the years, Lucy has been too suppressed mentally, and her poor appetite over a long period has profoundly impacted her health. Her body’s immune function has been getting worse and worse, so…”

Then, then…”

“We need to conduct further examinations on her body to fully determine the situation, but her current physical condition is too poor. If it continues to worsen like this, I’m afraid, I’m afraid…”

I’m afraid there isn’t much time left.

Ashley and the others understood these words clearly.

Amanda staggered a step, almost fainting.

After leaving the Nursing Home and returning to the Jones Family home, Amanda went back to her room, looking utterly despondent. However, no matter how bad or painful their mood, life had to go on.

By then, it was already getting late. Although no one had an appetite, they still had to eat.

Ashley picked up her phone and drove out to a nearby supermarket to buy groceries.

Dazed, she bought a few items. When Ashley went to the front desk to check out, someone suddenly called out to her: “Cousin.” Ashley turned around.

It was Jane.

Ashley gave her a faint nod.

Jane saw her, with a smile on her face, but after noticing Ashley’s bad complexion, she paused:”Ashley, what’s… wrong?”

Ashley shook her head, not wanting to say more.

After checking out, she picked up her bags and was about to leave when Jane hesitated, but still said: “That… Mr. Sterling is now at the Mond Family’s, having dinner with the family.”
