Chapitre 184: Melanie - Her Loss?

Aurora smiled sheepishly as she stared at their dumbfounded faces. "My grandma couldn't speak, also. My mother had to teach us so we could communicate with her." She explained to them.

Melanie stared at her for a long time, at a loss of what to make of the situation. "It's nice, having someone else I can communicate with, easily. I'll retire now and hope to catch up with you, later. Elias, I'll see you later." Elias and Aurora nodded and she turned to leave.

"Melanie?" She was at the door when Theo rushed in, looking breathless. He smiled at her, approaching her. "I heard you've been discharged. How are you feeling now?"

Melanie: "I'm fine now, Theo. Thanks for your care."

Theo scratched his head as he waved off her gratitude, "That was nothing. I should have done more to protect you in Elias's absence. I'm sorry about that. Let's catch up later." Theo whispered the last part to her and she nodded.
