CHAPTER SEVENTY EIGHT

EMILY’S POV

When Ava and I turned to look at the maid whom Granny instructed to tell us whatever it is that they were so engrossed in discussing.

The maid gulped nervously I could easily tell she was scared and uncomfortable about having this discussion again. So I walked up to her and patted her on her shoulders trying to calm her down.

“ It’s alright, you don’t have to be nervous, “ I said and gave her a reassuring smile. Granny and Ava also nodded their heads urging the maid to speak.

She nodded her head and said “ Mrs. Lucia’s Alzheimer's disease was more serious than you thought it was. She always told me on several occasions that she had a daughter and a husband, then I’ll ask her if she can remember where they stay and she’ll nod in agreement “

The maid paused as if trying to gather more courage to speak further and then she continued “ There was a time when I asked her to take me to her house,because I asked for the name of her daughter and husband but she couldn’t remember.
