Chapter 52

“Zachary isn‘t someone she can handle. Try and get her to move on. You don‘t see other young women hanging around Zachary other than his family. He‘s a heartless man. Why can‘t Elisa listen to reason?”

Clive threw in the towel on his sister.

“I‘m too busy to deal with her now. Honey, I‘ll leave Elisa in your hands.”

“Carry on with your work. I‘ll pick Elisa up now and take her to go shopping with Mom. Mom‘s been feeling down lately.”

Clive‘s wife, Alice, had a great relationship with her mother–in–law. Seeing that her mother–in–law was feeling blue, Alice persuaded her to go out and get some sunshine. A bit of retail therapy might do her good.

Clive fell silent.

He knew the reason behind his mother‘s melancholy. There had not been any news about his aunt. It was the one thing Mom could never stop talking about.
