S31 18. Break the Limit Kara's eyebrows furrowed. “Please don’t be angry, Mrs. Johnson. We're not playing around. There was an emergency earlier. Now, I'll go back to the kitchen and continue cooking, hmm?” Kara spoke so gently. However, Diana responded with a harsh snort. “Continue cooking you said? You think | don’t know? Sophia is the one who has been busy in the kitchen. She prepared dinner alone.” Kara's jaw clenched. Her chest was tight and her lungs were hot. Once might be a coincidence, but twice was intentional. Sophia and Diana had broken through the limits of her tolerance. “Sorry, Mrs. Johnson. | don’t understand whether you close your eyes on purpose or what. But since earlier, the others and | have been busy in the kitchen. Sophia wasn't the one who prepared all that.” Everyone's eyes spontaneously widened. They didn’t expect Kara's patience to finally wear out. Meanwhile, Diana was stunned. “You dare deny it?" “You can check the kitchen. There are potatoes that have only been half peeled, vegetables that have just been washed, and meat that has only been half processed. Could it be that Sophia did all that alone?” Diana sighed in disbelief. She looked around, hoping to find the same expression as her own. However, everyone sided with Kara. “Kara's right, Grandma. She's been busy in the kitchen. She's here now because Louis and Emily came out without wearing coats,” Philip. nodded. “Yeah, they're all here because | couldn't get down from the tree. | just called my dad up there.” Barbara pointed to where she had been. +25 BONUS Meanwhile, Frank raised his eyebrows in defiance. “Kara is telling the truth, but why are you accusing her of lying? Is it because Sophia again admitted that it was her cooking? You don't have the heart to expose her charade?” Diana took a deep breath. The more people who defended Kara, the more thorns grew in her chest. “If you really mind preparing dinner, fine! There's no need to ask everyone to support your game, let alone bringing down Sophia. She is clearly innocent!” Diana's voice boomed. The trees seemed to be silent too, listening to hér. “In fact, you should be grateful that | want to lend you my kitchen. You should be grateful that I'm willing to taste your cooking. But from now on, don't try to touch my cooking utensils again. Let Sophia get that honor. She’s much more deserving.” Kara's lips trembled more violently. She really wanted to argue. However, realizing that Diana's eyes had turned red, she clenched her fists, holding onto her anger. When the old woman turned around, she just looked down, catching her breath. “Grandma,” Frank grabbed Diana's arm, “haven't you gone too far? What's wrong with Kara that you hate her like this?” Frank's face was so stiff. His seriousness made Diana even more annoyed. “You're still asking what's wrong with her?” Pursing her lips, Diana pushed Frank's hand away. “Just think for yourself. What's clear is that | hate falsehood the most.” Frank couldn't hold back Diana any longer, He let the old woman in, +25 BONUS leaving a tense silence between them. “What makes her keep blaming Kara?” Frank thought while gritting his teeth. “Mommy, are you okay?" Emily's voice called Frank's attention. When he turned around, the little girl and Louis were hugging Kara. “I'm okay, Little Angels,” Kara answered weakly. The corners of her lips were now too heavy to lift. “Are you sure you're okay?” Frank helped Kara lift her gaze. Turned out, her face was pale and her eyes were red, struggling to fight the urge of tears. However, she still answered, “I'm fine, Frank. Just a little tired.” Frank knew his wife was giving the opposite answer. In order to protect her pride, she pretended to be deceived. “Okay, but I think you should rest now.” Frank stroked her warm cheek and kissed her. A second later, he looked at the twins. “Kids, can you take Mommy to her room?” “Yes, Daddy.” Louis and Emily grabbed Kara's hands. “Come on, Mommy.” Kara smiled briefly at the others. As she walked inside, the people behind her started to ponder. “I don’t think this can go any further, Frank muttered, opening the discussion. The others nodded in unison. “There must be a misunderstanding between Grandma and us. It must be cleared up immediately,” Barbara pouted. “Then, Philip,” Jeremy patted the man in front of him on the shoulder, you should find a right time to talk to Grandma.” Philip's brows furrowed. “Do you guys think I'll succeed? Somehow, | feel like we're distanced now. Grandma isn’t like the Diana Johnson | used to know.” “But you are her foster child. There must be a strong bond between you. Abigail also said that Grandma has missed you all this time.” Barbara assured. Suddenly, Frank touched Philip's shoulder. “Please... have a good talk with Grandma. Of all of us, you are the most reliable in this matter. Regarding the results, that's a matter for later.” Philip blinked in hesitation before finally sighing in resignation. “Okay. I'll look for the right moment tomorrow. Tonight, we'd better stay away from Grandma. Let her head cool first.” Everyone nodded, even though it meant they had to eat on the back porch again. The cool night air was much better than the heat of Diana's anger. sox “Come on, Mommy.

When they saw their mother wide-eyed and having difficulty chewing, their laughter broke out. “Mommy shouldn't have refused earlier.” “Yeah, so Mommy can still eat beautifully,” Emily said before patting Kara's arm. “Come on, Mommy. Chew carefully. Daddy said, if Mommy can finish all this, Mommy will immediately get better.” While chewing, Kara glanced at the man supporting her back. “So this was your idea?” Her voice was not clear. Frank shrugged. “What could | do? You refuse to take medicine, so you need more vitamins.” “Besides,” Louis grabbed the water bottle beside him and put it in Kara's hand, “Daddy said Mommy should drink a lot too.” “And get enough rest,” Emily pressed her hands to her right cheek. Her head tilted and his eyes closed for a moment. “That way,” Louis waited for Emily to open her eyes again. “Mommy can get better quickly!” They both raised their hands at the same time As warmth surrounded Kara, compassion colored her eyes. Still with her back against Frank, she looked back, conveying gratitude through her gaze. Then, she reached out her hand, stroking the twins’ round faces. “Thank you, Little Angels. | really appreciate your concern. But you don’t need to worry.
