99. Elizabeth's Charade
Sky brought her face closer to Elizabeth's eyes. The woman immediately tilted her head away. Her hand pressed Sky's shoulder to stop her from approaching.
"Before my patience runs out, get out of bed!"This time, Sky flinched. She quickly got down and stood up, covering her ears. Seeing her behavior, Elizabeth sighed in disbelief."You dare make fun of me? Who taught you to cover your ears when I'm advising you? Your mother?""Sorry, Grandma. It's not that I don't want to hear your voice. Uncle Ed said, if you're angry, you can pinch my ear. Because of that, I have to protect myself."Elizabeth sighed and pressed her temples. Her head started to throb. Maybe now, she really had high blood pressure."Grandma, are you okay? Does your head hurt again? Or are your ears ringing? You should watch her diet, Grandma. I heard that older people get sick more easily. You should only eat healthy food. Don't eat snack carelessly.""You thinRelated chapters
Mr. President's Lost Wife 100. High Blood Pressure
"Is that so?" Edmund grabbed his mother's phone on the table. The screen was still on. "And now, you can play your phone even though you're dizzy?" Elizabeth fell silent again. Why did she forget to turn off the screen earlier? "That's because I couldn't wait for you guys to come home. I meant to call you. But because I was too dizzy, I didn't call." Edmund nodded. While pocketing his hands, he looked around, looking for other evidence. "You know what, Mom? I panicked when I heard that you fell in the bathroom. But if it turns out that all of this was just a trick, don't blame me if next time I think your illness was an act." Elizabeth opened her mouth, about to argue. Before her voice could come out, Edmund said, "Alice, where is the blood pressure monitor I bought earlier?" Seeing Alice handed over the new device, Elizabeth's breath hitched. "You want to check me? Why don't you use a blood pressure monitor there?" She pointed at the

"Alice, what did you give me?" Elizabeth grabbed a tissue sheet and then spitted out what she had just chewed. Hearing that, Sky stopped coloring the book. She straightened her head. Her mother was showing the contents of the bowl to Elizabeth. "This is Moroccan Chicken and Sweet Potato Soup, a good menu for hypertension sufferers. It looks delicious. Don't you like it?" "Just try it yourself. It tastes bland. Did they run out of salt?" "Grandma?" Sky put her colored pencil on the table. "You are sick because your blood pressure is high. You can't eat salt." Elizabeth was startled. She just remembered that there were other people in the room besides Alice and herself. "But this isn't delicious at all. How am I going to eat? My appetite disappeared as soon as I tried it." "What if you just eat the chicken?" Alice prepared the next bite. Elizabeth immediately covered her mouth with one hand. "No. I don't want to eat that
Mr. President's Lost Wife 102. Sky's Defense
Alice was stunned to hear Sky's assessment. After a blink, she shook her head."I'm not sad, Honey. You and your papa love me. That's more than enough." "You're still happy even though Grandma doesn't love you?" Sky asked in surprise. Alice shrugged. "Yeah. We can't force other people to like us." "But Mama loves Grandma?" Alice fell silent again. "She's my mother-in-law. I have to respect her." "Oh, I understand now. Mama is kind to Grandma not to get something in return, but because she is Uncle Ed's mother. Just like me and Papa Lucas." Alice shook her head at that name. "Papa Lucas?" Sky nodded. "When we were still living with him, I always hoped that Papa Lucas would love me as much as I loved him. Because of that, I often felt sad and angry every time Papa Lucas ignored me. But after finding out that Uncle Ed was my real father, I no longer had hope in Papa Lucas. I'm not afraid that he do
Mr. President's Lost Wife 103. Giselle's Intimidation
"Giselle, I want to take medicine. Can you help me?" Elizabeth's voice attracted all attention. Giselle rushed back to her side. However, instead of reaching for the medicine on the table, she opened her bag. Seeing that, Alice blinked in surprise. "Is that part of their plan?" she thought. Suddenly, Elizabeth laughed. "Jeez, Giselle. You're asking for a prescription from your personal doctor again? You're so kind." "Yes, this is the most effective blood pressure-lowering drug in the medical world. You will be healthy again in a blink of an eye." "Can I see the medicine?" Alice inquired, freezing Giselle and Elizabeth's movements. Before Alice arrived in front of her, Giselle quickly exchanged the vitamin for real medicine. "You're afraid I'll poison your mother -in-law?" Giselle said while handing her the medicine. Her tone was like joking. While Alice checked it, Elizabeth snorted. "Alice, you are
Mr. President's Lost Wife 104. Sky's Report
Giselle's eyes widened slightly. Her jaw throbbed. Her chest grew hotter, especially when Alice patted her shoulder as if to comfort her. "I'm sorry I made Ed fascinated by me. But believe me, Giselle. The fate of love has been arranged. Ed married me because he is not your soul mate. I'm glad you have accepted that fact and let it go." While Giselle was sighing in disbelief, Alice took her hand, giving it a light pat. "One day, you will definitely meet your soul mate, someone who truly loves you. And you don't need to worry about what other people say to me. I won't be affected." Alice leaned closer to Giselle's ear. With a small smile, she whispered, "I don't know what I was like before, but the current me feels very grateful to have Ed by my side. I would be a fool if I still doubted his love. He clearly loves me very much. Otherwise, why would he looking and waiting for me for five years? He even filled every day with memories of me. Is it possibl

Edmund turned to Alice. "Are you okay?" Alice smiled slightly. "I'm fine. Don't worry." "Yes, Mama is doing her job very well. Look at this, Uncle. Her face is smiling. Mama is facing Grandma patiently." Sky turned the paper over. There was a trolley now. The fat woman raised one hand and turned her head in the opposite direction. "Let me guess. Your grandmother didn't want to eat." Sky nodded vigorously. "Yes! Grandma said she didn't want to eat healthy food because it was a boring menu. She said she wanted pizza with a lot of cheese. I warned her that pizza wasn't healthy, but Grandma didn't want to listen. Mama had to take the trolley out." Sky pointed to the next picture. "Mama also reminded Grandma to take medicine, but Grandma refused. She said she usually took medicine at night. She didn't want to take medicine during the day. Grandma even accused Mama of wanting to poison her. But Mama remained patient."
Mr. President's Lost Wife 106. A Cunning Mother
Edmund put on a more serious look. "You ate snacks, Mom. You must have known that the sodium content was high, so why did you eat three large packets? Did you deliberately raise your blood pressure so you could ask Alice to look after you?" Elizabeth didn't answer. Blinking slowly, she looked away. "Then you asked for pizza, while Mrs. Klein and the others had made special menu for you. I don't think you're stupid enough to believe Giselle. Healthy pizza, really? The sodium content is still high even without cheese. Are you a child? Don't you have good self-control? Or did you deliberately make you blood pressure rise so you can blame Alice?" Elizabeth glanced for a second, but her lips remained tightly pressed. Edmund suspected that she was cursing under her breath. He glanced at the monitor. Seeing that the blood pressure numbers were still stable, he continued. "Please be honest, Mom. What did you receive from Giselle? Blood pressure-lowering medic
Mr. President's Lost Wife 107. I'm All Yours
Edmund entered Sky's room without making a sound. Even though the lights were turned off, he could vaguely see Alice lying on her side hugging their little daughter. "Why is Mom so heartless towards Alice? Alice is a very good wife and mother. She is also a caring daughter-in-law. Why can't Mom accept her well?" Edmund mused bitterly. After one breath, he sat on the edge of the bed. He looked at his poor wife. Feeling pity, he began to gently stroke her hair. "Sorry I haven't given you the best. Sorry I haven't changed my mother." Either because of Edmund's touch or whisper, Alice woke up. "Ed?" She let go of Sky carefully then got up. "What's wrong? Did something happen to your mother?" Hearing that worry, Edmund's breathing became heavier. "No, she is fine. Her blood pressure has dropped. I have also asked the nurse to accompany her and check her again." Alice blinked for a moment. "Then what are you doing here? Didn't you sa
