The fact was, Elise had made a wrong judgment. These two, who didn’t look like they could possibly be related to the Sinclairs, were in fact Laura’s son and daughter-in-law.
Elise and Alexander quickly released them, and Joshua rushed forward to the other side of the bed before sobbing loudly while he clutched at Laura’s leg. “Mom, do you know that I was frantic with worry upon hearing the news that you were hospitalized?! You gave me such a fright!”
Meanwhile, Maureen followed suit and wailed, “That’s true, Mom! We made our way here in a rush and left everything else behind. Now that we’re back in town, we won’t be leaving anytime soon. We’ve made up our minds to stay by your side and take care of you!”
However, Laura shot them a disgusted look before she lifted her eyes to glance at Alexander standing by the doorway. “Griffith boy, we’ve got some personal family matters to settle. We’ll be fine without you.”
There was a flash of surprise across Alexander’s face but he quickly recollected himself and maintained his composure. Turning to look at Elise, he said, “I’ll wait for you outside. Yell if you need anything.”
