"Not Mommy, it's Darcie." Alfie reminded her, "Keep in mind!"

"Ok then," Rowan was worried, "Don't give her away or all our effort will be in vain!"

"Ok," Diana nodded, "I won't."

Rowan stroke their head gently and said, "I'll go first, and leave the rest to you. Good luck, kids!"

"Don't worry! Consider it done!"

Five minutes later.

In the simple but luxurious living room upstairs, it was so quiet that one could hear if a needle fell on the ground.

Pippa squatted beside Aubree, holding her hand like her daughter. She was still patiently persuading her, "Madam, don't you want to dance in a slip dress among the flowers? You loved dancing when you were young."

"Is this doctor so good?" Aubree was struggling, "I don't like the disappointment after hope. For me, it equals to despair." In fact, she was also a little intrigued, but she was afraid.

At this moment, the kids came to the door.

"Grandma."

Aubree raised her head. Pippa stood up, and the children walked toward them happily.

Pippa hurried to get them some snacks.

"Grandma, we overheard what Pippa said to you just now at the door."

"Grandma, why are you unwilling to receive treatment? Medical technology is so advanced these days and everything is possible." Diana tilted her head, "You are tall and slim, and if you're cured, you will look like those elves from 'Lord of the Rings'."

Aubree was not happy when she heard this. She was too far from looking like that.

She was now a devil with ugly scars all over her body.

But in the face of the innocent and lively kids, Aubree, who was usually mean, could not say a single harsh word. She just felt peace and contented, at least for now.

She likes these two children, but she couldn't accept Jennifer.

She always thought that if they were Catherine's kids, it would be perfect.

"You also think grandma should receive the treatment?" For some reason, she asked back.

These words shocked Pippa, who came in with the snacks. Madam was considering it!

She couldn't help speeding up her pace and kept on persuading Aubree gently, "Madam, we're not doing anything anyway. Why don't you give it a try?"

"Take them downstairs to play. I need to think about it."

And there was hope.

Alfie and Diana waved goodbye to Aubree and went downstairs.

Aubree returned to her room, locked the door, and sat down in front of the dresser.

The dresser was empty, save for a sandalwood comb.

She couldn't even remember when was the last time she used skin care products and cosmetics.

She opened the drawer and took out a photo album. She opened it with complicated feelings. The person in the photo was wearing a beautiful dance costume and looked graceful in the dance studio...

The smile on that face was beautiful and confident.

After a year, she finally flipped through the photos one by one. A while later, she dialed Rowan's number.

She said, "Bring Darcie here, I will arrange the rooms for you guys. Ten days. If I don't see any effect in ten days, you'll be charged with fraud, and I'll make you pay for it."

Ten days?

Although Rowan thought it was quite challenging, he still agreed immediately, "Okay."

Those kids really are something.

At least there was a change in her attitude. As for the limited time, it can wait. They need to move in first.

In the evening.

Rowan successfully loaded the car with all the medical equipment needed and let Jennifer got in.

They drove towards Kelsington Bay.

"Can you recognize me in this?" Jennifer looked at her outfit and check the delicate mask on her face using her mobile phone as a mirror.

"No," Rowan said, "Relax, she won't think it's you and she won't even be suspicious."
