"Cathy, Roy, what's going on?"
Ivy Aretha widens her eyes at the scene in the bedroom: the woman is hiding tightly under the quilt while the young boy is pouncing on her covered body. He's trying hard to pull the quilt back to see her, but she grabs him fiercely.
"Auntie Ivy, my mom is dying, please save her!"
Seeing Ivy, Roy Thompson immediately gets up from the bed and throws himself at her, hugging her thighs and crying even harder, "Please save my mom!"
"What happened to your mom? How could she die so suddenly?" Ivy bends down to pry the little boy's hands from her thighs, gently wiping the tears from the corner of his eyes. If Julie Harrison were really dying, Oliver Thompson wouldn't have left this morning!
From what she could see, that man still had some feelings for Julie. Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent half a year here with them. For him, time was more precious than gold. If it weren't for someone he truly cared about, why would he waste it so?
