Chapter 244
"Mom, don’t worry, there’s no poison."
At this moment, Attlee was sitting by the bed, looking at Grace’s face helplessly. "We know you’re mad, and yeah, we messed up. We shouldn’t have put Rose’s info on that missing persons site, leading to your separation."
Grace, hearing these words, was a bit taken aback. Had something unusual happened today? Her son was actually reflecting on his actions. That was a rarity.
"Last time we visited, we really took to heart what you said."
Attlee looked genuinely remorseful, his head hung low in regret.
Grace had previously mentioned that ever since they put Rose’s info on the missing persons site, the Harris family had hit hard times, driving away their fortune without even realizing it.
"Rose’s been doing so well in school all these years, and you never even told me."
Hearing this, Grace found it a bit funny and immediately retorted, "When did I not tell you? Every time I call you, the minute I start talking about Rose, you lose interest. You’re always ’busy,’ ’in a meeting,’ ’doing something else.’ Basically, you never want to make time to hear me out."
That was a fact, and Attlee had no retort.
"The rare times you guys do call me, it’s always to borrow money or for some boss’s contact. After giving you the money and the contact info and just starting to fill you in on Rose’s recent situation, you guys are already rushing to hang up!"
"Well, you could’ve texted me!"
