At this moment, their faces really seemed off.
One of the grandmothers hesitated for a moment before carefully asking.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Walker gave her a look and shook her head.
Seeing this scene, everyone present instinctively knew that something must be wrong.
Otherwise, their expressions wouldn’t be like this.
After quite some time, the old woman finally looked up at everyone.
Everyone immediately turned their attention to her, wondering what she was about to say.
She let out a long breath, furrowed her brow, and spoke softly.
“My husband has passed away.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces showed stunned disbelief, unable to believe what they had just heard.
The group furrowed their brows, not expecting such news at all.
Everyone pondered how to comfort the old woman.
Because they knew that she had spent many years with her late husband.
Although he had done some wrongs to her before his death, they had spent so many years together, forming a bond.
In this situation, they didn’t know what to say.
So, it’s true that sometimes unexpected events come out of nowhere, leaving you unable to react in time.
After a while, a few grandmothers stepped forward and gently touched her shoulder, saying,
“It’s okay, it’s okay, we’ll get through this.”
“Besides, he wasn’t treating you well before, anyway. If he continued to live, he would be a burden to you.”
“Actually, this outcome is quite good.”
Everyone began to chime in, hoping the old woman wouldn’t be too saddened by this event.
Thankfully, as they spoke, the old woman’s face showed no obvious distress.
So, now they could breathe a sigh of relief. The old woman smiled gently and nodded, saying,
“It’s fine, I’ve recovered. You’re all right.”
She wasn’t the type to be unreasonable.
Even though she was kind, she could still tell right from wrong.
Her besties only spoke as they did because they didn’t want her to be engulfed in sadness.
Although her husband was gone, she still had her besties around. They could live well and support each other.
Now that it was getting late, it was time for them to sleep. It wasn’t possible for Yigol Novak and Suri Drew to stay in their house any longer.
So, at that moment, the pair smiled at everyone.
“You should all go back and sleep now, it’s already very late. We’ll find a hotel to stay in outside.”
After Suri’s words, a look of embarrassment flashed across Mrs. Walker’s face.
“If our bedrooms weren’t already full, you both could stay here. I’m really sorry,” said Mrs. Walker.
The main reason for the embarrassment was that they felt like they had received so much help from Yigol and Suri, but they could not even offer them a room to stay in.
Even if they tried to make room by having several grandmas share a room, it would still not be ideal since there wasn’t enough time to clean up.
Yet, Yigol and Suri didn’t find this to be a big deal at all. They simply waved their hands and said,
“Oh, it’s fine, just a hotel. We like staying at hotels anyway.”
Suri smiled and immediately reassured them.
Yigol also nodded and added an explanation.
“Moreover, we were planning to travel around and stay in hotels during this time. You all should rest too, and we’ll see you tomorrow.”
Since they both already said their piece, it would be inappropriate to say anything more.
After watching them leave, everyone returned to their bedrooms.
It must be said that the events of today were quite unbelievable.
They never expected to encounter these two people.
The grandmas sat around the fire, chatting and discussing the day’s events.
“These young people are so kind-hearted. I’ve never seen anyone like them in all my years.”
“Yes, meeting them is the good fortune from our previous life. They said they will help us build this home together and save more besties.”
“I hope we can also do our part.”
Everyone was delighted to have met these two and considered themselves lucky.
However, it was getting quite late, so when their conversation ended, everyone went back to their rooms and slept.
As for Yigol Novak and Suri Drew, they had already checked into their pre-booked hotel.
After washing up, they lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, and began reflecting on the day’s events.
“I have to say, those grandmas really have it rough.”
Suri sighed softly and shared her thoughts.
Her heart ached when she thought about how all the newcomers around these grandmothers had left them one by one.
If she herself were to be suddenly separated from her long-time lover, she would certainly be in great pain, too.
Sensing his wife’s mood, Yigol embraced her in his arms and spoke gently.
“It’s alright, I’m here, and we’ll make sure they live a better life.” After hearing his words, Suri kissed his face and said,
“I knew my husband is the best!”
But upon further thought, she continued,
“Actually, meeting these grandmothers today can be considered fate. If it were before, we might not have paid attention to them.” He also agreed that his wife had a point.
Sometimes it was really fate that brought people together.
He knew that there must be many people in distress in this world.
But this time, since they encountered this situation, they would offer their help..
