Feeling a bit awkward using such an elegant handkerchief, she said, “Sir, a tissue will do."

"Don't worry about it. Just use the handkerchief and throw it away when you are done."

Still feeling that using such a handkerchief was inappropriate, Raegan returned the tissue to Hector.

After studying Raegan for a moment, Hector took back the handkerchief and gave her a tissue.

After that, Hector appeared somewhat fatigued. He closed his eyes and didn't say another word.

Upon reaching her destination, Raegan exited the car and expressed her gratitude.

Unexpectedly, Hector looked up at her and said, “You remind me of a friend of mine."

Raegan deemed it a cliché, half-expecting him to ask for her phone number. She had already formulated a polite refusal.

But to her surprise, Hector said nothing more. He simply rolled up the window and drove off.

Raegan didn't dwell on it and walked into the nursing house.

Meanwhile, in the car, Hector gazed at Raegan's retreating figure, his expression carrying a hidden meaning.

A thought crossed his mind as he murmured, "Ella, is that you?"

After a moment, he closed his eyes and issued a cold command, "Investigate this woman right away."

In the hospital.

"Raegan, I blame myself... You've suffered so much looking after me,"

Raegan's grandmother said, her eyes filling with tears. Her emotional vulnerability had increased over the years.

"Don't worry, grandma. You've always been there for me. Now it's my turn to look out for you," Raegan replied, her eyes moistening as well.

Brent was an asshole. He rarely made time for family. To ensure Raegan could attend school, Raegan's grandmother had taken on various jobs, everything from collecting trash to selling snacks. As a result, leaving the hospital now seemed nearly impossible after the exhaustion of all these years.

“My only fear is that if something happens to me, there will be no one to care for you. And you're not married yet, so I won't be able to rest in peace," Raegan's grandmother confessed.

Brushing away her tears, Raegan said, "Grandma, stop talking like that. You're going to live a long life. Didn't you tell me that we would go back to your house together one day?"
