Chapter 1337
He was making a call on the balcony. When he heard that I was up, he hung up the call and looked back at me, saying, "You should go wash up.
We''re going to the Zimmersons * home."
"Okay."
We came to Limbia mainly to pay our respects to Mr. Harold and visit Mrs. Mathilda Zimmerson
At the Zimmersons'' home.
Theo told me a few things about the Zimmersons on our way there. The Zimmersons were a century-old family that started off by selling grains to
make a living. Later, the business did badly due to environmental factors and the provocation of the wrong sorts of people. Mr. Harold
was sent to Whaldorf City to further his education, where he met Jackson Theo, Theo''s grandfather. Jackson was trying to build a career for himself
back then. The two hit it off well, so they began their journey to wealth and prosperity. Later, Mr. Harold had no choice but to leave Whaldorf City, and
the two stopped keeping in touch.
Mr. Harcld left Whaldorf City because his parents had passed away and his siblings died in an ident. He needed to return to take over the family
business. Although he was only left with an empty shell of the family business at the time, he bit the bullet and pushed through
He knew that his parents’ and siblings’ deaths were no coincidence, hence heunched an investigation and found out that his siblings’ deaths were
probably due to internal strife. He stopped investigating. After settling down, Jackson reconnected with Mr. Harold. Both of them had started a family,
and their wives became best friends.
There was no telling how much of a blow Mr. Harold''s death would bring to Mathilda.
When I walked into the Zimmersons’ home with Theo, my eyes lit up.
The entire mansion looked ssically elegant. It was like stepping into ancient times.
Upon entering the hall, several people were standing there. There were men, women, and children. They were probably the Zimmersons'' children
and grandchildren
These people looked sullen, maybe because of Mr. Harold''s death and Mathilda falling ill
"Mr. and Mrs. Grant, Madam Mathilda is upstairs. Pleasee upstairs to meet her."
It was the Zimmersons'' butler who spoke. He looked to be 50 or 80 years old, looking both mature and reliable.
Under his guidance, Theo and I went up to the second floor and entered a room filled with a strong smell of disinfectant and medicine.
A doctor ina white coat was writing,
something while instructing the
servant about the medicine to give
to. Mathilda and how to take care of
fer.
"Please,e in," the butler said
The farther we walked in, the stronger the smell of disinfectant was.
An old woman was lying on the bed with an IV drop stand by her bed. She was having a drip.
The butler walked to the side of the bed and bent down to mutter, "Mr. Grant is here, Ma''am."
The old woman slowly opened her eyes and attempted to get up from bed.
The servant quickly went forward to support her and ced two pillows behind her back so she could lean on them
She looked at Theo and me. Her aging body could not take the grief, which caused her to fall ill. It made her look especially weak.
Theo and I walked over and leaned over to look at her.
Theo said, "I''m Theo Grant, Madam Mathilda. I''m sorry for only visiting now. There were things I had to handle first.
Please forgive me.”Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.

Theo then talked to her about the past
They did not talk for too long before she fell asleep in exhaustion.
