Chapter 218: Undressing
Rain enjoyed a hearty breakfast with everyone, her spirits high as she noticed how cheerful Aunt Melanie was, particularly around Uncle Ben. It seemed the two were growing closer by the day.
"I’m planning to go out with Miss Melanie today. Is that alright?" Ben asked her sheepishly in the middle of breakfast.
Rain chuckled. "You really should drop the ’Miss’ already. Just call her Melanie," she teased.
"That’s exactly what I’ve been telling him," Aunt Melanie added with a playful smile.
"And you don’t need my permission," Rain continued.
Ben scratched his head, looking slightly embarrassed. "Well, your aunt won’t come unless you agree..."
Rain turned to Aunt Melanie, who gave her a bashful smile. Taking a deep breath, Rain said, "Aunt, you should start living life for yourself. Do what makes you happy without worrying about what others think. Life is short, and it’s yours to live. But if you ever need advice, I’m always here."
Alexander joined the conversation. "The trial for Aunt Melanie’s freedom is coming soon, and it’s practically a win. Rain’s right. Don’t hold back anymore, we’re all here to support you."
William then added, "Speaking of which, I’ve been tasked by brother to transfer your medical records to Meta Doctors Hospital. My team’s handling it. You won’t be going back to Clayton University Hospital anymore. From now on, Meta Doctors will take care of you, and Uncle Ben here will be your personal chauffeur!"
