Auntie Valerie looked at Tom and Nancy with a troubled look, "You two..."
"Mom!" Tom burst into tears, "If the Madam you've mentioned is really like what the man had just said, Mr. Granger must have known about it already. Yet, he still treats her so well. Their situation couldn't be any worse than ours at this moment!"
"Yes, Mr. Granger is so wealthy. He wouldn't have much problem living a wonderful life with his wife. On the other hand, we only have Weldon. If something bad were to happen to Weldon, it will be the end of our world!"
In the end, Auntie Valerie eventually helped Tom and Nancy to their feet, "Fine, get up off your knees! I'll listen to both of you!"
They hugged each other and cried bitterly as they stayed up all night.
The next day, Auntie Valerie went to Clearwater Bay as usual. As soon as she got out of the house, it started pouring.
