Gustave was slow to respond to certain things, or perhaps Darlene's words were sudden and this decision was also made very suddenly. Gustave did not even realize the meaning of her words and fell silent for a long time.
Darlene saw that Gustave did not say anything. She was a little embarrassed and regretted suddenly saying this.
So she changed her tone vaguely and said, "It's nothing, I... I just said it casually. I shouldn't have said that. I'll go ask the doctor and see if he needs to change the medicine for my father."
Darlene got up and was a little flustered to go out first. In fact, even she was not clear about the decision just now. Had she thought it through?
Perhaps it was because Darlene was suddenly blamed by Alicia and felt wronged, and now that something like this had happened to her parents.
