The place was buzzing with the scent of flowers. The owner sure is generous. Letfind a vase for these. You know, our room really could use a splash of color." Saying this, Yolanda began rummaging through the cupboard for a vase.

The Maddens were also having breakfast at that time. Andrea was wearing a new dress she had bought a While shopping yesterday, a light purple long dress that flattered her slim figure.

"Yesterday, also bought gifts for orn grandma and grandpa. I used my brother's card, but the thought was all mine. After breakfast, let's go upstairs and I'll show you the surprise I've prepared." Before Nelson could respond, Mrs. Bernice Madden frowned, "No, I need to go to the hospital to see Elsa!" Andrea's smile froze, visibly upset.
Jerome, sitting across from Andrea, noticed the change in her demeanor. He tapped on his phone that lay beside him.
He had sent off a DNA sample for expedited testing the night before.
Judging by the time, the electronic report should be arriving soon.
