Mission To Remarry Chapter 88
By the time the treatment was over, Frieda had also returned home.
Upon finding out from the butler that Roxanne was treating Alfred, she made a beeline for the latter’s bedroom.
“Grandpa, how are you feeling?” Frieda asked concernedly the moment she stepped into the room.
Alfred nodded slightly. “Much better.”
Having lived for so long, he had gained an understanding of how traditional medicine worked and had also consulted countless famous doctors.
Roxanne, however, had come as a delightful surprise to him.
After each course of her treatment, Alfred would always feel a significant improvement in his health, which was something that not even the best doctors in the world could achieve.
Frieda looked her grandfather over and finally nodded with a smile. “That’s good to hear.”
Then, she turned to Aubree and added, “Have you come to visit Grandpa too, Aubree? Since it’s getting late, why don’t you stay for dinner?”
Naturally, Aubree had no objections to that and grinned broadly. “In that case, don’t mind if I stay and bother you, Old Mr. Queen.”
Alfred merely chuckled and nodded.
Now that Frieda was home, Roxanne hastened her packing, not wanting to stay and interact with the women any further.
Realizing that Frieda was up to no good, Roxanne’s brows creased slightly.
Jonathan had just gotten off the phone when he overheard Frieda’s words. Thinking that his sister was merely trying to be a good host, he chimed in, “Lucian will be coming over in a bit. You’ve met him before. I’m sure he’d like some updates on Grandpa’s recovery, so it’d be good if you could stay to help answer his questions.”
Since she couldn’t bring herself to say no to that, Roxanne could only nod in agreement.
Frieda walked up to hold Aubree’s arm while giving Roxanne a mocking gaze. Well, well, well. I can’t believe the doctor really has the guts to stay.
As it turned out, Frieda only asked Roxanne to stay because Alfred had invited Lucian, and she wanted nothing more than to mess with the doctor.
Given Roxanne’s relationship with Lucian, I wonder how she’d react when she sees him with other women. Oh, I can’t wait to find out!
