The people downstairs had not left yet.
When a woman saw us walking downstairs, she walked over and asked the butler, "How's Mother doing, Morgan?
Is she feeling better? Did she ask to meet anyone?"
The butler shook his head and responded in a respectful tone, "Madam Mathilda is doing very well. My apologies,
Ms. Seline. Madam Mathilda has yet to tellthat she wants to see anyone." "Why doesn't mother want to see

It turned out that there were two doors in this lounge, which madea little speechless.
Tory was holding a file and leaning against the door frame, still looking as idle as ever and not the least bit
serious. Frivolous was the only word anyone could think of when they saw him.
Theo did not look back at him. He lowered his head, seemingly thinking about something.
Tory walked over and placed the files in his hands on the coffee table. He said to Theo with a smile, "Grandma

Theo picked up the files without looking at them very carefully and put down his signature directly.
Tory raised his eyebrows. "You're quick."
After taking the contact from Theo's hands, he took a glance and said, "Alright, that's all. We'll count on you from

"Sure." Tory sat on the sofa. "You own a big business, Mr. Grant. Are you planning to build a huge business

saying, "We'll go upstairs to pay our final respects to Madam Mathilda."
"Okay."
In Mathilda's room, there were many people kneeling on the floor.
