NovelEnglishChapter 567 After the incident involving Nathan back then, Hendrix had used the excuse of Ophelia's advanced age to move her into a nursing home.
Although it was touted as the best nursing hin Coppersville, its management was extremely strict. Outsiders couldn't visit freely, and those inside naturally couldn't leave, either.

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Grant, Noelle might have almost forgotten that Ophelia even existed. "Mrs. Freeman, the doctor has already examined Mrs. Freeman Senior today," Grant said respectfully. "She doesn't have much tleft. Mrs. Freeman Senior no longer cares about worldly matters. Her only wish now is to see her grandson." "By grandson, do you mean Nathan?" Beatrice's tone was indifferent. "But he's abroad now, and I doubt he can make it back in time." "If Mr. Hendrix is willing to give his permission, there's still time. That's why I'm asking for your help to speak with him." "I can't do that," Beatrice said. "You, Mrs. Freeman Senior, and everyone else were well aware of how Nathan treatedand Hendrix back then. Honestly, letting him leave under the guise of studying abroad was already an act of mercy on Hendrix's part." After Beatrice finished speaking, Grant fell silent. But then he quickly added, "If Nathan can't cback, then at least let Mrs. Freeman Senior see the little girl?" Noelle had been standing quietly to the side, listening. After all, these were the Freeman family matters and had little to do with her. In fact, she had even been considering whether to take Rosie and leave.
But the next moment, she met Grant's gaze. It took her a moment to realize that the "little girl" he was referring to was Rosie. A frown immediately appeared on Noelle's face.
Beatrice had been about to refuse, but Grant seemed to anticipate her response. "Mrs. Freeman Senior doesn't have much tleft. Even if she made mistakes in the past from the Freeman family's perspective, she never treated you unfairly.
"Now that she's nearing the end, this is her only wish. So, Mrs. Freeman, please at least grant her this." As Grant spoke, something seemed to cross his mind, causing his voice to grow hoarse and low. And his expression was one of pleading.
Beatrice didn't say anything. Instead, she turned to look at Noelle with a frown, as if seeking her opinion.
Noelle remained silent. She lowered her eyes, seemingly deep in thought.

Rosie, unaware of what was being discussed, stood obediently beside them as she glanced curiously between Noelle and Grant. Finally, Noelle said, "If it's just a visit, then it should be fine."
Back when Noelle was still married to Hendrix, Ophelia had never shown her any kindness, and every word she said to her had been laced with disdain.
But now that Ophelia was on her deathbed, Noelle didn't see the point in dwelling on the past. If possible, she hoped that Ophelia could leave with fewer regrets. Grant's eyes immediately lit up at Noelle's words. Then, he thanked her deeply, "Thank you! Truly, thank you!"
