Olivia looked at the woman before her. Shana was wearing a plain cotton dress, and her hair was in a ponytail.

She didn't have any makeup on, but she looked very young. She didn't seem like a woman her age at all. Instead, she looked like she was in her mid-30s.

Her eyes were clouded, like pearls that had been covered in dust.

"Madam Fordham worries about you and your siblings every day. She shed many tears for you all, and eventually, her eyes became like this. Fortunately, you were able to overcome your depression, Mr. Sean. That's good news for Madam Fordham."

"Sean, let me take a look at you."

"Mom, I'm here." Sean tugged at her dress.

Shana bent down and caressed his face like she did when he was a child.

"My dear Sean is all grown up now. It's a pity that I can't see you clearly anymore."

She could only see the outline of his face. Everything else looked like a blur to her.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner?" Sean asked emotionally as he grabbed her hand. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Madam Fordham knows you've been depressed. She didn't want to trouble you any further, so she told me to keep it a secret. Ms. Jacqueline is the only one who knows."

"Even Dad doesn't know?"

"That's right. Mr. Fordham has been too busy in the past six months. He doesn't even have time to visit Madam Fordham."

"Alright. Let's not talk about this anymore. Didn't you say you brought a friend home today, Sean?"

Shana turned her gaze toward Olivia's direction.

Olivia was deep in thought about what Nina said. Jacqueline's name was brought up again. No matter where Olivia was, she kept hearing Jacqueline's name. When Shana mentioned her name, Olivia walked up to her and greeted her.

"Nice to meet you, Madam Fordham."

"Mom, this is Dr. Fordham. She's the one who cured my insomnia and depression."

"You're such a wonderful doctor, Dr. Fordham. Doctors from all over the world have tried to treat Sean, but they only made it worse. So, you're really a skilled doctor." "You're too kind, Madam Fordham. It's pure luck that I was able to cure Sean."

Naturally, Shana noticed how Olivia addressed Sean. The rumors were true. He had fallen for Olivia.

"I heard that you have a child, right?"

Shana was very gentle and didn't put on airs. She heard the sounds of bells getting closer before stopping before her. Then, the bells rang rhythmically.

Olivia explained, "Madam Fordham, my daughter was born a mute. She's greeting you. Sorry for the inconvenience."

"Is that so?"

Shana crouched down slowly. Then, she raised her hand and patted Willow on the head. "Hi, Willow."

Olivia noticed a dimple on Shana's left cheek when she smiled. It was in the same spot as Sean's dimple.

All of the siblings resembled her a little. Jacqueline was the exception. Maybe she looked more like her father.

"Alright, the drive over here must've been tiring. Let's not stand around. Head inside and rest. I've asked the kitchen to prepare some snacks. I think Willow might like them." Shana reflexively took a step forward while she was talking. There were several steps of stairs before her.

"Watch out, Madam Fordham."

Olivia rushed forward and grabbed her. Shana held Olivia's hand tightly. Olivia felt the warmth of her hand and felt an inexplicable sense of warmth in her heart. "Thanks. You're really attentive and kind," Shana said gently.

"You're welcome, Madam Fordham. I'm a doctor. If you don't mind, I can take a look at your eyes for you. I might be able to cure you."

"That's right. She's an incredible doctor, Mom. Let her take a look at you."

Sean was a little anxious. "Why not do it now, Dr. Fordham? Please examine my mother."

"Sure. I'll be in your hands, Dr. Fordham."

They sat down in the pavilion. Then, Olivia placed her fingers on Shana's pulse.
