章節 75: Isabelle's story

"Your grandfather's condition is serious… I am afraid that he won't be able to make it," His father said in a tight voice. 

Nico could feel how devastating this sudden news was for his father. A few years ago, Geoffrey Scuderi had lost his mother in an accident, and now seeing his father on the death bed was just as devastating. 

Imagine, living a life without the hand of your parents on your head. 

"And Isabelle?" Nico asked a while later. He remembered that Isabelle was still treated by the doctors. 

"She is severely injured but she will be fine," His father replied in a curt voice. 

Nico was not stunned seeing his father's attitude towards Isabella. Just a while after Geoffrey's mom's demise, Albert Scuderi had married Isabelle, a woman who was even younger than his grandchildren. 

What child would tolerate a woman half his age as his stepmother?
