Chapter 337
“Everything’s fine.” Paige paused for a moment, “Cory, take Ivy to wash her hands and face.”
Cory replied and went off.
“What happened?” After the kids left, Rosalynn asked in a low voice.
“Good lord, the way things are going…” Paige sighed, “Ivy and Cory met Wayne’s grandma.”
“What?!” Rosalynn was astonished.
Paige held her forehead, “Not only did they meet her, but Ivy even volunteered to tell stories to the old
lady!”
At the time, Ivy and Cory were still at the hospital having lunch with Granny Owens, and then they went
to the hospital’s small garden.
At that time, most of the patients were taking their naps in their wards, so there weren’t many people in
the small garden.
When Paige arrived with Ivy and Cory, they happened to overhear a nurse chatting with a middle-aged
woman.
“I think the patient might not last more than a few months,” the nurse said.

aged woman replied.
“Is there really a need for hospice care when she’s already lost her consciousness?” the nurse shook
her head in doubt.
Hearing this, Ivy’s hand, which was holding Paige’s finger, clenched involuntarily.
She looked out across the corridor at the old lady sitting in the wheelchair under the sun.
At first glance, Ivy was a bit scared.
The old woman was very thin, as if she was just skin hanging on bones.
“What’s ‘hospice care’?” Ivy looked up at Paige and asked.
Paige, busy with work messages, replied without thinking, “Caring for a dying person before their very
last moments is called ‘hospice care.’ It’s meant to help them pass away peacefully.”
“Oh.” Ivy nodded thoughtfully.
“You go play, but don’t leave my sight.” Paige let go of Ivy’s hand and told Cory, “Cory, be careful not to
fall, and remember to look after your sister.”
“Okay.”
Cory nodded.
Ivy ran into the small garden, and Cory reluctantly followed.
After a while, Ivy wiggled left and right and then approached Old Mrxo.com fast updates.
Silverman.
In recent days, Old Mrs. Silverman’s spirits had been fairly good. Despite some confusion, she would
greet Ivy with a kind smile.
With her wide, sparkling eyes, Ivy glanced at Old Mrs. Silverman and noticed the children’s book on her
lap.
“Do you like reading this book too?” Ivy asked, her eyes filled with excitement.
Old Mrs. Silverman didn’t quite catch Ivy’s words and mistakenly thought the child wanted the book.
She trembled as she picked it up and handed it to Ivy, saying, “Here you go…”
Cory stepped forward and intervened, “Thank you, my lady, but we don’t need it.”
He then took hold of Ivy’s hand and continued, “Ivy, let’s not disturb her rest. Let’s go play over there.”
However, Ivy suddenly broke free from her brother’s grasp and darted back towards Old Mrs.
Silverman.

“My lady, let me tell you a story! I can tell stories really well!”
By the time Paige had come over, Ivy had already told two fairy tales at a leisurely pace.
“Sorry for the disturbance!”
Paige picked up Ivy and quickly apologized.
At this point, the nurse saw what was happening and came over as well.
“Who are you?” The nurse’s tone was somewhat unfriendly.
“You’re a nurse?” Paige held Ivy and looked the nurse up and down, “The sun is so strong at noon, and
you left the elderly person sitting here all alone. My five-year-old kid feels bad for her and runs over to
take care of her!”
The nurse didn’t respond. She had intended to scold them, but instead, she got scolded.
“Have some sense. She’s already so old. If something happens to her, can you handle it?” After saying
that, Paige took the two kids and left.
But the moment they turned to leave, the old lady in the wheelchair suddenly spoke up.
“Rosa, don’t go!”
