In the evening, Jorge left Dylan to tell everyone to go to Jorge’s house for dinner. He said, -Because last night was the last day of the party, but we did not meet for dinner together, it is the same if we do it today.
Go to Jorge’s house for dinner?
Alice hesitated.
Dylan smiled slightly and explained quietly, -Jorge has sent a car to pick up Miss Raquel.
-You mean, Auntie has accepted it? -Alice hesitated.
Seeing the other party nod, Alice knew she had to go too. But Yanis was so drunk that she could not go, because one person definitely had to stay to take care of her.
Just at this moment, Nathan came out of the room with a frown, -Yanis is not feeling well.
At the sound, Alice’s face changed slightly, she entered the room quickly and came to Yanis’ side.
-What is it?
I thought she was just drunk. But she had been talking nonsense for a moment, and then she started sweating. I tested the temperature of her forehead, it looked like she had a fever.
She had a fever…
-Without any reason, how could it be? And what really happened, why did she get so drunk when she came back to you?
Nathan answered, “Miss Yanis, when I found you, you were in the street, scantily dressed and shedding tears. I felt that something was wrong, so I took her to the restaurant to get something to eat. Later… She said she wanted to drink, but I couldn’t stop her.
Hearing Nathan’s words, Alice’s eyebrows twisted. She went out with Zain, but when Nathan found her, Yanis was left alone. According to Nathan’s description, Zain should do or say something that broke Yanis’ heart.
How had this happened…
Seeing Yanis like this, Alice also felt uncomfortable. She thought it was a good opportunity for Yanis to be with him together, but it turned out that it hurt Yanis a lot.
Would this be forced?
Thinking about this, Alice did not speak any more, and only nodded toward Nathan to let him know that she had heard all about it.
Nathan also noticed the change in her expression. He thought for a while and thought that she probably already knew all this, because they were very good friends and had been together for many years, so how could she not know Yanis’ thoughts?
He didn’t need to say anything more.
-She has to get her fever down first, you have taken care of her for a long time, then let me take care of her.
Nathan glanced at her without saying anything, nodded his head, turned and left the room.
After Nathan had left, Alice wanted to reduce her fever by physical measures. When she was halfway through, she remembered that Dylan was still in the living room, went out and explained, “I’m really sorry, Dylan, I wanted to go there too, but Yanis has a fever now. If we all go out, I’m afraid there would be no one to take care of her, so… I won’t be going there today.
Dylan didn’t think it would have been that unfortunate, but he didn’t say more because he could understand, and just looked at other people.
-Well, Kennedy and Jack?
Alice thought for a while and then suddenly smiled slightly and said, “Go Jack and Kennedy.
She knew that under the pretext of inviting them to dinner, George really wanted to see Jack.
He saw that he was coming to see his great-grandson but unfortunately he didn’t get what he wanted in the end. Jorge would surely feel very bad after returning home.
After all, he had just seen his beloved great-grandson last night, but fainted before he could say anything to him.
What about herself? If she didn’t go, he would be very happy.
Seeing Alice’s magnanimous appearance, Dylan touched his nose sheepishly and explained, -Alice, in fact, I understand what you are thinking, but George can now already accept many things, and as I know him these years, if he would not have wanted it, but now he already accepts you, just maybe he is now keeping up appearances, so….
Alice smiled slightly, -You don’t need to say more, I understand all this.
Dylan nodded his head contentedly.
Yes, you could tell from his attitude towards George that even though George’s attitude was really bad, Alice showed him a lot of respect.
In terms of character, Alice was really a good girl.
-However, I can’t decide whether they will go or stay, so you have to ask them in person. If they don’t want to go, then I can’t force them.
Dylan consented with his head right away, -That’s right, now I’ll ask them.
-Okay.
Alice turned and went into the room to take care of Yanis. After a while, Jack came to look for her.
Mom, aren’t you going to great-grandfather’s house with me?
Jack went inside to ask her this question. After that, Jack discovered that Yanis’ face was not well, so he asked, -Mom, what’s wrong with Aunt Yanis?
Everyone had thought Yanis was just drunk, so it was no big deal.
But now…
Alice put another wet washcloth on him, and said, -Your Aunt Yanis has a fever and isn’t feeling well, so, I can’t get out of it.
Jack was speechless.
So I can’t go with you to your great-grandfather’s house. If you want to go, your father will go with you.
Hearing that, Jack scrunched up his face, “But Dad refused to go.
Alice’s hand movements stopped, -He refused to go?
This was very strange.
But it was normal and intelligible that Kennedy didn’t want to see him now.
So what are you doing? Do you feel like seeing your great-grandfather? If you want, Uncle Dylan will take you there and your dad will pick you up at home later.
Jack thought seriously, “Then I’m going. Your great-grandfather always stays home alone and he’s probably very lonely. Take good care of Aunt Yanis, mom.
-All right, -Alice smiled at that, and reached out her hand to squeeze Jack’s tender cheek, -Be a good boy, go and keep your great-grandfather company. Don’t forget to put in a good word for mother. If you do very well, the whole family will be able to sit down and eat together.
At that time, everyone would be happy, and every day they could have dinner together.
Why did they care so much about this dinner today?
Jack nodded his head strongly at her words.
-Mom, don’t worry, I’ll definitely put in a good word for myself!
Alice thought about it for a moment. Jack’s ability to confuse the elderly really couldn’t be underestimated.
Although he was still very small, he was super smart and eloquent.
Alice hadn’t had any special opportunities all her life, but Jack had always helped her a lot since she was born.
You could say that Jack was her magic weapon.
