Mrs. Alana came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and frowned, "What is this about the CEO's wife taking the ball and running away?"

The old woman glared at Martin, "Did you show Susie some nonsense again?"

Martin remained silent.

He glanced at Wade and said, "It wasn't me who said it."

Wade was stunned.

Wow, his dad actually threw him under the bus?

Although he did say it, but he didn't tell Susie about these dog blood stories!

He just explained it a bit, didn't lead his sister astray!

Seeing his grandmother's dangerous gaze, Wade immediately raised his hand and said, "Grandma, I didn't say anything! It was... it was Uncle Colt who was listening to an audiobook in the car, and we just heard the title!"

Uncle Colt remained silent.

Wade looked at him with a pleading expression.

There was no choice, if he said it was his father who was listening to a novel, his grandmother wouldn't believe it!

He had to sacrifice Uncle Colt.

Uncle Colt's mouth twitched, and he said silently, "Madam, it was me who was listening to it. I'll pay attention next time."

Mrs. Alana grumbled, "You're almost 50 years old, a grown man, and you're actually reading romance novels?"

Mrs. Alana was also very familiar with these romance novels.

She secretly read every book Clara read when she was hospitalized...

Uncle Colt smiled honestly and said, "I used to listen to them all the time, and I found them quite enjoyable."

Mrs. Alana's eyes dimmed. Yes, when Clara was seriously ill, she couldn't pick up her phone to read her favorite novels.

But she could listen to them.

Everyone was used to listening.

Mrs. Alana didn't say anything more, she just called everyone to eat.

Susie followed Mrs. Alana like a little tail, talking like a little adult, "Grandma Chloe, my brother didn't teach me bad things, and Uncle Colt didn't teach me bad things either!"

"We saw a doctor aunt at the hospital today! She was wearing a watch on her hand that belonged to Martin that was lost before!"

"When she was checking on Zion, she intentionally shook it back and forth! We all think she's definitely not Uncle Martin's wife..."

Mrs. Alana was stunned, "What?... Uncle Martin's wife...?"

She glanced at Martin and Martin shook his head slightly.

Mrs. Alana understood immediately, "Oh! It's a substitute literature, where the supporting role impersonates the female lead and after five years, the female lead returns with twins to take back everything that belongs to her?"

Susie nodded vigorously like a little chicken pecking at rice, "Yes! Twins! By the way, Grandma Chloe, what does 'one-night stand' mean?"

Grandma Chloe hesitated, remained silent.

"Susie, go wash your hands and eat. It's getting colder today, let's have hotpot," Grandma Chloe changed the subject.

"Zion has been in the hospital for so long, his mouth must have become bland... I made some braised pig feet for him," Grandma Chloe turned her head to pretend to nag.

Zion grunted and went to wash his hands obediently.

He never thought that coming home would feel so good.

Zion ate while pondering about his visit to Yama's palace.

He had not been idle during his hospital stay.

He researched a lot of information and even customized an upgraded map for his sister.

As a ghost king...he must be famous for his deeds, starting from a young age!

Zion was too engrossed in his thoughts and did not hear Mrs. Alana talking to him.

Mrs. Alana looked at Zion with a worried expression.

She had talked to him for so long, but he was still the same as before, expressionless and eating on his own.

This child had already undergone surgery.

Whether it was a public hospital or a private hospital, they all said that he had recovered well and there was no more blood clot pressing on his brain.

But why was he still so slow?

At this point, Zion looked up and said, "The pig feet are so well stewed!"

This was the question Mrs. Alana had asked him five minutes ago.

Mrs. Alana remained silent.

It's over, he really hasn't recovered!

His reflex arc is still so long!

Wade exclaimed, "Second Brother, your reflex arc is still in outer space!"

It's probably like...his reflex arc was previously on Mars, and now it has finally returned to the atmosphere?

If before it took half an hour for his reflex arc to complete a circle, now it takes five minutes...

Wade shook his head, "There's no hope, he's born like this."

Zion was still thinking about Susie's identity. He was not sure if his sister was really Yama.

In traditional mythology stories, Yama was male.

It's not that there weren't any female ones, he specially checked.

In the past feudal society, women were looked down upon, so when compiling stories, they found a female Yama. How could a woman be a king? So, they forcefully changed female Yama to male Yama.

If that's really the case...then his sister is really Yama...?

After finishing half a bowl of rice, Zion couldn't come up with a conclusion, so he could only respond to what Wade had just said, "There's nothing to worry about."

Everyone remained silent.

He still says there's nothing to worry about?

He only answered after finishing half a bowl of rice.

Alex's mouthful of cornmeal fell, "There's no hope, there's no hope!"

Kellen assigned another 'special task' today.

He emerged from the abandoned chemical plant and saw the sunshine outside once again.

"I thought I wouldn't make it this time..." His voice was low, with a hint of indescribable exhaustion.

His off-road vehicle was parked on the side of the road, and he only felt his body warming up after getting in the car.

The weather had started to turn cold, and he put on the outdated thin black leather jacket. His slender fingers with distinct knuckles pressed on the steering wheel, and there was blood at the joints of his fingers.

He skillfully bit the white bandage and wrapped it around his own hand.

After doing all this, he leaned back in the car seat and looked at the abandoned chemical plant in front of him in silence.

After Zion's operation last time, he woke up from a coma and said he went to the Yama Palace. The Yama Palace was full of statues, and only Susie appeared on Yama's throne.

Kellen was not stupid. Mitch was not an ordinary ghost, and based on many details, Mitch, Susie's master, should be the judge of the underworld.

And his Susie... was likely to be Yama of the Yama Palace.

Kellen smiled bitterly. He was mortal, and he would eventually die and be reincarnated.

But he couldn't bear to leave his Susie. If he tried a little harder...

Then, when he reincarnated again, would he have the ability to choose not to leave?
