Chapter 377
1/2
At 7 p.m., Neil and Silvia went to Free Life, the most famous Italian restaurant in Ryoln City. They sat by the window and had dinner while they enjoyed the city’s night view.
“Congratulations on winning the lawsuit, Silvia.”
She smiled as they clinked glasses. Then, she took a sip of red wine and said, “Thanks.”
Neil put his glass down and looked unusually nervous.
“There’s something I want to tell you.”
Silvia seemed puzzled. “What is it?”
He walked to her side and prepared to get on one knee, but his phone suddenly rang.
He frowned and planned to ignore it, but she gave it to him.
“Answer it first.”
His expression darkened after he answered the call.
Once it ended, he looked at Silvia and said, “My grandmother fainted. She’s in the hospital right now!”
It was already 8 p.m. when they reached the hospital.
The butler noticed their arrival and hurried to greet them.
“What did the doctor say? Why did Grandma faint all of a sudden?”
The butler shook his head. “They haven’t figured it out yet. The doctor said it might be due to low blood sugar. They recommended that she stayed in the hospital for two days for observation.”
Neil’s expression turned cold. “Grandma gets regular checkups. How could she have low blood sugar?”
“I’m not sure, but Madam Remus’s appetite has been poor lately. She only eats half of her usual portion each meal.”
Neil frowned and said, “I understand. You can head back and get some rest. I’ll hire two caregivers to look after her.”
The butler nodded. “Alright. I’ll pack some clothes for Madam Remus since she’ll be hospitalized for a few days.”
“Okay.”
Shortly after the butler left, Abalene woke up.
The moment she learned about her hospitalization, she voiced her displeasure and insisted on returning home.
“I just fainted from low blood sugar. It’s nothing serious. The doctor’s exaggerating. I’ve been perfectly healthy for many years. I’ll be fine resting at home.”
“Madam Remus, they’ll just run some tests while you’re here. If everything turns out fine, we

can rest easy,” Silvia said as she peeled an apple.
Abalene frowned. “I’m really fine. I feel uncomfortable in the hospital.”
Silvia smiled. “You won’t be here for long. I could stay with you if you’re not used to it.”
Abalene reluctantly agreed. “Okay.”
Silvia sliced the apple into small pieces and blanched them before she offered them to Abalene.
While they chatted, Jake and Melanie arrived.
Once they learned that Abalene was okay, both of them visibly relaxed.
“Don’t worry. I just have low blood sugar. You can go back. There’s nothing to do here,”
Abalene calmly said.
Jake nodded. “Okay, Mom. Get some good rest. I’ll ask Melanie to make you something bland tomorrow.”
“No need. The caregivers will handle it.”
Abalene never liked Melanie and preferred not to have her around.
Before they left, Melanie turned around and said, “Silvia, Neil, come out for a moment. I have something to ask you.”
Outside the ward, she looked at them and asked, “When are you two planning to remarry?”
