Grandfather Wang's Condition

---

Marie walked into the kitchen and caught Elena spacing out. Immediately, she knew what was wrong. 

"Mark hasn't called yet?" She asked.

Hearing her mother's voice, Elena's attention was drawn. She shook her head and continued to mix the flour and butter with a spatula. "He promised to call if there is anything. Maybe there is nothing yet."

Marie shook her head and came to take a seat on one of the kitchen island's chairs. "I think his family is giving him a hard time?"

"How do you know that?" Elena raised a questioning brow as her stirring stopped. She was very concerned that what her mother was actually saying was true.

If the Wang family doesn't want her child, that was fine. They have been fine all these while without knowing about their existence, and they would continue to be contented even after finding out about their existence.
