Mag-log inSerenity said firmly, “You absolutely need to stay in the hospital for a few days, for observation and a full body check-up. Some people seem fine right after an accident, but pass away a few days later due to internal injuries they weren’t aware of and didn’t seek treatment for.”“Zachary and Serenity are right. You should stay in the hospital for a few days no matter what,” Kevin chimed in, scolding his younger brother. “Otherwise, we won’t feel at ease.”Peter sat down on the edge of the bed. “Have you had your head checked?”“I’ve done all the checks. My head is definitely fine; it didn’t hit anything. Only my chest took the impact during the collision.”Alex felt that while the initial impact had been excruciating, the pain had since subsided somewhat. He believed it could not be anything serious.Zachary stated, “We’ll decide after all the results are out. For now, just focus on resting in the hospital.”Alex pursed his lips reluctantly. “Fine, but tell the doctors not to
After hanging up, Serenity walked back and said to Rosella and the others, “Aunt Rosella, Zachary asked me to go out for something. Please keep Mrs. Lafayette company and show her around. I’ve got to go handle this.”“Sure, go ahead,” Rosella replied.Serenity then said to her sister, “If Lil’ Pie looks for me, please help comfort her.”Liberty asked with concern, “What’s the matter that you have to go so urgently?”“It’s nothing big. I’ll be back once it’s dealt with. Lil’ Pie has Jiggy to play with, so she probably won’t cry or fuss.”With so many older kids around to play with the little one, she should be fine.Liberty assured her sister she would take good care of her niece, so Serenity could leave with peace of mind.When Sonny was little, he loved being with his aunt, and now Lil’ Pie also adored her Aunt Libby. Since Liberty was around, it was much easier for Serenity to go out. At least, the little girl would not cry.However, Liberty was busy and could not come back e
Daisy watched the large group of children playing and thought to herself that the York family truly had a vast legacy and a thriving household.The children paused their playing when they noticed the unfamiliar face.Jane, Liberty, and the others who had been sitting nearby came over.“Aunt Rosella.” They greeted Rosella, following Serenity’s lead.Rosella smiled in acknowledgment, and Serenity introduced Daisy to her sister and friends.Everyone exchanged pleasantries with Daisy.Looking at Jane, Daisy said with a smile, “So you’re the daughter of the Lafayette family from Meadspring. I’ve heard about you but never had the chance to meet you. I didn’t expect to see you in person today.”She extended her right hand, and Jane shook it warmly. “Five hundred years ago, all of us with the surname Lafayette were one family.”Daisy laughed.The Meadspring Lafayettes were more renowned and had a lineage that went further back than the Lafayettes of Solville.However, after a period
Martin asked his future in-law, “Mr. Lafayette, do you play chess?”Daisy chimed in, “He loves to play chess. He’s always asking me to play with him at home, but I’m not very good. I lose every single time, so I don’t really enjoy playing with him.“Old Mr. Lafayette isn’t keen on playing against him either, and our son is busy with work. He seldom has anyone to play chess with.”Martin laughed. “We’ll have a good few games later, then.”He made a call to have someone bring a chess set to the gazebo by the lotus pond.When the group arrived at the lotus pond, Daisy was impressed. She had seen lotus flowers before, and the Lafayette family even had some water lilies in their fishpond, but they did not have nearly as much space to cultivate so many lotuses.Though they were just ordinary lotuses, their sheer number was breathtaking. As far as the eye could see, there were lotuses in full bloom, buds waiting to open, tiny tips just emerging, and even seed pods left after the flowers
“Mrs. Lafayette, you’re too modest. Serenity kept praising Rosalie when she came back and telling us how wonderful she is. Even our little Lil’ Pie likes Rosalie. She actually let her hold her on their first meeting.“Mrs. Lafayette, you might not know this, but my great-granddaughter is quite particular about people. She rarely lets just anyone hold her,” Grandma May said dotingly as she looked at Lil' Pie, who was still being held by Mrs. Lafayette.Daisy smiled. “Rosalie has a natural way with children. Many little ones are drawn to her—they love playing with her and always ask to be held.“Lil’ Pie is truly adorable. Just looking at her makes me wish I were a grandmother myself. I’ll have to hurry my son along to get married and have a baby, so that I can have a granddaughter to hold too.”Even Thomas was unable to resist teasing Lil’ Pie.The little girl was indeed very cute.“Mom, we heard there were distinguished guests visiting. We’re sorry we’re late.”Martin and Rosell
Daisy asked Serenity, “Can I hold her?”She had not held such a young child for a long time. Her son and daughter had not gotten married yet. She was still dreaming and waiting to be a grandmother. Serenity smiled. “Of course. Callia, can you let Grandma Lafayette here hold you? She’s Aunt Rose’s mom.”Since Daisy looked friendly, Callia reached out her arms to let Daisy carry her. Serenity invited the Lafayette couple to take a seat. Daisy sat opposite Grandma May with Callia in her arms. She told Grandma May, “I apologize for the sudden visit, Old Mrs. York. Sorry for disturbing you.“Callia is truly adorable.”She threw in a compliment for Callia. Thomas also greeted Grandma May. Grandma May replied, “It’s our honor that you two are willing to visit. You’re not disturbing at all. If I knew you were traveling in Wiltspoon, I would’ve sent someone to pick you up and let you stay in the manor.”Daisy said, “That’ll be too much trouble for you.“We’ve recently found ou
