"Sienna..."
Aged and hoarse, the voice belonged to Sienna Johnson's grandmother, who had just arrived.
When Sienna's grandmother was young, she had been a formidable woman with a prominent reputation in the business world of Sileria City. Only after her son grew up did she gradually recede into the background. In business, Father Johnson still consulted her for advice when encountering particularly challenging problems.
Although the relationship between grandmother and granddaughter wasn't exceptionally close, the grandmother treated both her and Samara Johnson fairly. In fact, she favored Sienna slightly more than Sabrina Johnson, her adopted granddaughter, which was enough to earn Sienna's deep respect.
"Grandma, why are you here..."
Sienna tried to get out of bed, but her grandmother stopped her. The old woman had lost her husband in middle age and her son in her later years; the blows she had endured were even deeper than Sienna's.
