Chapter 748
Florrie seethed with anger.
She hadn’t seen Lucinda in years, but she was still as unbearable as ever.
She wished she could tear Lucinda’s mouth apart right then and there.
But after a moment, her anger dissipated and she smiled smugly.
“Congratulations are in order,” Florrie started.
“Last night, Mr.

“What?!”
Lucinda’s expression took a drastic turn.
“How could he make such a decision without even consulting me?”
Florrie lifted her chin haughtily.
“You can go upstairs and ask him yourself.

Florrie couldn’t help but giggle.

As soon as she stepped in, she saw her father, Atticus sitting in a wheelchair looking so old.
When he caught sight of her, his face lit up with joy and tears welled up in his eyes.
“Look who’s here.
Come here, sweetheart! Let me take a good look at you,” Atticus said with a grin.
Lucinda felt a swirl of emotions as she made her way to him and crouched down by his side.
“What happened to your legs, Dad? You were perfectly healthy when I left,” she asked, concern etched on her face.
