He was scared of losing her. Staring at her through his red and puffy eyes, he asked, “How do you feel, Grandma? Do you want some water?”
Lucia showed a small smile. She raised her hand and caressed his face.
“I’m feeling a lot better. I’m sorry for making you worry.
Help me sit up please.”
Matthew cautiously helped her sit up, placing a pillow behind her waist for support. He gently brought a glass of warm water up to her lips.
“Matthew.” Lucia was feeling better.
“Don’t lie to me, I want the truth. Tell me what’s going on between you and Stella?”
Matthew placed the glass aside. He explained sincerely, “Grandma, what Aunt said is all fake. I didn’t fool around with another woman.”
“But you’re divorcing Stella. Tell me, is it because of that woman?”
Lucia sighed, still not believing it.
“No.” Matthew denied it vehemently.
“I’m only going to have one wife in my life. I’m not divorcing Stella, I promise.”
His change in attitude made Lucia a bit hesitant.

“Seriously? Or are you only lying because I’m currently hospitalized?”
Lucia questioned.
“There was just a slight issue, but now that I know what the problem is, I’m not going to divorce her anymore,” Matthew said, lowering his gaze.
Lucia looked at him for a while, feeling slightly relieved when she saw the seriousness on his face.
“Well, in that case, when are you going to bring her to visit me?”
Lucia’s question made Matthew hesitate.
He wasn’t sure if Stella wanted to remain married to him. It was too big of a risk for him to bring her to visit his grandmother with the present state of things.
After receiving no response from her grandson for a good minute, Lucia grew suspicious again.
The smile on her face faded a little. Her tone became harsh.
“Silly boy! So you were lying to me just now?”
“No…” Matthew wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought.
