"Whatever do you mean, Grandmother?" Alexis innocently blinked her eyes and asked. Maybe, the blink was too much. She didn't look stupid or naive, to begin with.
Julia remained in character. She smiled as she said, "I just want to help, my child."
Then kindly shut up, Alexis nodded. She has a thoughtful expression on her face.
"What do you want to help with and who?" Alexis asked. The woman knew what she was doing and she was trying to stall Alexis.
"With everything. I let many things happen because I chose to stay silent. But now I want to help. So I just had to say, if anything that you need help in please consider me in."
Alexis raised a brow at that. How nice of her to ask. "I do need your help," she said smiling. "I have a question I would like you to answer."
"Yes, anything please." She looked pleased for someone who was out convincing people of her niceness.
