Capítulo 115: I Like The Way You Are

Julia went to meet Albert, her mind still uneasy about the lie she thought Justin had told the old man. Inhaling deeply, she entered the room, where a nurse was changing his IV drip.

"How are you, Albert?" Julia asked, trying to suppress her unease.

"I'm good," Albert offered her a light smile. "Have a seat."

Justin and Natalie accompanied her as well. Natalie's heart raced with another series of lies, while Justin remained calm and unfazed, as if nothing was amiss.

Natalie glanced at him, who stood by her side. This man truly has thick skin, while I might die of anxiety.

Justin looked back at her, his expression nonchalant. She sighed and looked away.

"I'm not sure what to say to you," Julia began hesitantly.

"I know you weren't aware of anything either," Albert said gently, "but as elders, we should just respect their wishes."
