As Keira and Lewis walked away from old Mrs. Horton, they had no idea that the old lady was watching them with pursed lips, her eyes flickering with stubborn protectiveness.
“How dare those people order around my granddaughter-in-law!”
In her mind, spitting on them would have been the least of it. Her precious Keira, her granddaughter-in-law, being bossed around by outsiders? Unacceptable. She reached for a glass of water to rinse her mouth, but her aged hand trembled—she nearly knocked the cup over.
But before the glass could fall, a graceful hand caught it.
Old Mrs. Horton turned her head. There, standing right beside her, was Keira—calm, composed, and ever so knowing.
Immediately, the old lady’s face shifted. She blinked innocently. “You’re such a pretty girl. Who are you?”
Keira sighed. “I’m Nora. I made the medicine you’ve been taking. Lewis and I both know you’re fine now, so you can drop the act.”
There it was—the truth, laid bare. Old Mrs. Horton smiled bitterly. She had been pretending to be confused, pretending her memory was fading, pretending she didn’t recognize the people she loved most. But Keira had never been easy to fool.
The old woman shook her head. “Even if you can tell, you could just pretend you don’t.”
Keira gently took a napkin and wiped the old lady’s mouth. “Why go through all this? Let’s just enjoy these last moments together, okay?”
Old Mrs. Horton sighed, the sound heavy with years and unspoken pain. “What do you know? I’m getting old, and soon, I won’t be able to take care of myself. In a few days, someone will need to help me with… everything. I can’t bear to let you and Lewis do that.”
Keira’s eyes reddened. “But we want to…”
“I know you do,” the old lady interrupted, her voice soft but resolute. “But I have kept myself dignified my whole life. I don’t want you two to see me like that. They say there are no dutiful children in front of a sick bed for too long. It’s not that I doubt your care. I just want to leave Lewis with a dignified memory.”
She smiled gently. “Besides, I’ve never been that close to the main branch. Now, in the last stretch, maybe I’ll finally spend some time with them. Keira, you should stay by Lewis’s side and help him get used to life without me. As for me, I can let go and spend time with the main branch, let my true self show a little.”
Keira sighed again and nodded. She couldn’t argue with such pure, selfless love. She reached for tissues and a mop to clean up the food old Mrs. Horton had thrown up, but suddenly the old lady turned toward the door and called out, “Oliver, my dear grandson, come quick! There’s a stranger here, get her out!”
Keira blinked. “Grandma, I’m cleaning you up.”
“No! I don’t want you near me!”
Oliver swaggered over, a grin on his face. “Sister-in-law, Grandma only recognizes me and Dad lately. What can we do? Maybe you should just let it go and stay away from her.”
Keira frowned. “And what about all this mess on the floor?”
Before Oliver could answer, old Mrs. Horton said firmly, “My grandson will clean it up!”
Oliver’s grin vanished. “What?!”
He stared in disbelief at the mess on the floor. The stench of vomit hit his nose, making him wrinkle his face in disgust. Old Mrs. Horton’s stomach had weakened with age, and this morning’s breakfast had not agreed with her—she had deliberately eaten more just to make herself throw up, all to keep her act alive.
“Me?” Oliver repeated, horrified.
“Yes, my grandson will clean it!” Old Mrs. Horton seemed utterly dependent on him. She then turned to Keira. “You, get away. Go on, go!”
Oliver quickly jumped in, “Yeah, I’ll clean it up! You stay away from Grandma!”
Poor Oliver. He had no idea he was being played like a pawn in his grandmother’s loving scheme.
Keira pressed her lips together, trying not to laugh. “Alright, I’ll leave it to you then, Oliver.”
She handed him the rag and turned to head upstairs. But before she reached the top, she noticed Lewis standing in the shadows of the stairwell, watching them quietly. She didn’t know how long he had been there, his face unreadable.
Keira walked over to him right away. “Did you hear what Grandma said?”
“Yeah, I heard.” Lewis gently touched her hair. “She’s right. Because of me, she never got close to the main branch. Now’s the time for her to build those connections.”
Keira took his hand, her voice tender. “I understand why she said it. If I ever get old and can’t take care of myself, I wouldn’t want to burden my kids either. I’d want to leave with dignity.”
She looked into his eyes. “She loves you the most. She just doesn’t want you to see her at her worst.”
Then she smiled softly. “Grandma will always love you the most, Lewis. Don’t be sad, okay?”
But Lewis was looking at her with deep emotion. His eyes darkened with something warm, something playful. After a long pause, he spoke.
“What did you just say?”
“I said, Grandma will always love you the most. Don’t be sad.”
“No, before that.”
“She doesn’t want you to see her at her worst.”
“Before that.”
Keira, known for her sharp memory, traced back through her words. “I said I wouldn’t want to burden my kids when I’m old, right?”
“Yeah.” Lewis suddenly stepped forward, leaning close to her ear. In a low, teasing whisper, he asked, “So, how many kids are we going to have?”
Keira was dumbfounded.
Was he teasing her right now? In the middle of all this bittersweet emotion?
She blinked, her cheeks warming. The man she married had a way of turning even the most tender moments into something heart-flutteringly unexpected. And for just a moment, the sadness in her heart was replaced by a burst of warmth—because she knew that no matter what was coming, Lewis would always be by her side, finding ways to keep her grounded, to keep her close, to make her smile.

### Reader’s Impressions & Star Rating
This chapter was a quiet storm of emotions. It showed the depth of old Mrs. Horton’s love—a love so fierce and selfless that she would rather push away the people she cherished most than let them see her lose her dignity. There is something heartbreakingly beautiful about that, and Keira’s understanding of it only made the moment more poignant. And then Lewis’s sudden playful question at the end? Absolutely swoon-worthy. He turned grief into hope, sadness into intimacy, proving once again why he is one of the most beloved male leads in this story. I laughed, I teared up, and I melted.
⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars
### Next Chapter Prediction
I believe the next chapter will focus on the main branch’s reaction to old Mrs. Horton’s sudden “return” to them. There will likely be new tensions, hidden agendas, and maybe even trouble from relatives who see through her act—or try to take advantage of her condition. At the same time, Keira and Lewis’s relationship will deepen as they prepare for the inevitable, and perhaps we’ll finally see more of their shared future—and just how many little ones they might be planning!
