MainNovelChapter 1106:
While Lila fumbled for words, Brenna quietly grabbed a tissue, dabbing at her grandmother's wet cheeks and
blotting the soup from the sheets. Her voice broke with emotion. “You didn’t deserve this, Grandma.”
Recognition flared in her grandmother's eyes, hope and relief mingling. “Brenna, you're really here...” Gripping
Brenna’s hand tightly, she managed a trembling smile. “Now that I’ve seen you again, my heart can rest easy,
even if | will die soon.”
“As long as I'm here, | won't let you die,” Brenna said firmly.
A softness flickered across her usual cold features as she noticed the crumpled, stained bedsheet beneath Joann.
She didn’t want her to use something so dirty.
The hospital room looked ordinary, and three patients had to share the cramped space. The noise never seemed
to stop, and the air felt stale while the floor looked as if no one had cleaned it in days. The beds were far from
cozy, and nothing about the room could be called comfortable.
“I really don’t want to trouble you,” Joann said, guilt weighing down her words. She felt guilty as she
remembered the days she couldn't shield Brenna from Ruby's and Alec’s harshness. Yet now, Brenna showed her
only kindness, never resentment.
“How is this a burden? Remember how you cared forwhen | was small? Now it’s my turn to look after you,”
said Brenna. She reached for Joann’s hand. “Letfind a better hospital room for you, so you can be more
comfortable. I'll handle everything.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLila, who had been watching from the foot of the bed, frowned. “That's unnecessary. The private hospital rooms
cost a fortune. Wouldn't it make more sense to use the money to buy Joann sgood supplements instead?”
She viewed Brenna as a walking wallet. She saw her as someone who was rich and generous, yet too busy to
offer real caregiving.
Considering how terribly the Barrett family had once treated Brenna, it made sense to think she showed up only
because she felt thankful for the way Joann had looked after her long ago. She believed Brenna would just leave
smoney this tand never return again.
Lila started figuring out the amount of money Brenna could possibly hand over this time, not even caring about
her son anymore, whose crayfish had been knocked over by Joann.
Yet, her son’s loud sobs filled the air, and the noise got on her nerves. She kept her composure and said to him,
“Calm down. When Brenna gives us money, | will get you more crayfish to eat.”
The boy fell silent, looking up as he asked, “Really?”

“Of course. When have | lied to you?” said Lila, nodding for emphasis.
Carefully, Brenna dabbed at the stains on the bedside table. As she glanced at the soup and crayfish scattered
on the floor, her gaze turned cold. “You can see the mess, can’t you? Clean it up. Now,” she said, leveling her
eyes at Lila.
