Chapter 41 Meeting The Family?
‘Don’t say too much,” Dalton whispered, still looking incredibly handsome.
Margaret wheeled herself closer and said to Dalton and the others, “It’s the first time Wynter has brought friends to the medicine store. You kids have fun.
“There’s tea in the courtyard. Drink it up to help with digestion. I’ll go out and buy some shrimp to cook for you.”
Margaret had a keen eye for people. She knew this young man was not an ordinary person and might not really be a friend of Wynter’s. But seeing her granddaughter bring someone
home made her happy.
In the past, Wynter didn’t like this medicine store. She used to say that staying here made her smell like herbs. Her classmates would tease her. So, she wouldn’t stay for meals.
Wynter used to visit Margaret secretly, not wanting others to know. She was afraid that she would get a lecture from Wanda when she returned home.
Margaret understood that even though she had raised Wynter, she would naturally feel closer to her mother. And Wanda wasn’t likely to speak well of Margaret in front of Wynter.
Margaret was aware of all this.
Later, as Wynter grew up, her visits became less frequent. Sometimes, only once in six
months. She always said she was too busy.
But three months ago, after Wynter had an accident and hurt her head, things changed. Not only did her personality seem different, but she also helped renovate the medicine store. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Margaret was content with how things were. She never expected Wynter to follow in her footsteps and take over her job. She had raised Wynter and knew her granddaughter didn’t really have the knack for it.
She just wanted Wynter to have more friends. The people they used to know were all about status. Once Wynter was out of their circle, they disappeared like they were never friends.
These young men seemed nice. At least they were still hanging out with Wynter.
Margaret was too friendly. Even Ethan couldn’t keep a stern face. He just looked at Dalton,
But Dalton had a sensitive stomach. Hence, he couldn’t risk eating food outside. If anything
went wrong, Ethan’s job was on the line.
But then Dr. Genius smiled too. “Grandma, they all want to eat. Please buy more. And get a pumpkin. I want to make porridge.”
Dr. Genius, don’t… Ethan tried to refuse.
But Dalton interrupted, “We’ll bother you then, ma’am.”
He looked at Margaret with a faint smile, showing impeccable manners. “Let Ethan
you. He can help carry things.”
Margaret refused. “No need. You kids chat. I need to move around a bit.”
Ethan wanted to speak up, but he couldn’t find the words.

Wynter smiled. “Grandma and Susan Perry go to the market together every day. You don’t need to go.”
“Exactly, us old folks have our friendships too,” Margaret said as she picked up an eco-
friendly plastic bag.
She muttered to herself, “It’s just that Wolf isn’t here to boil the water. He’s been gone since yesterday, probably off picking mushrooms on some hill again.”
It was the season for fresh mushrooms in Southdale. There wouldn’t be any good ones left
if collected too late.
Many kids of Wolf’s age went to the hills, so Margaret wasn’t really worried about him
being away.
Dr. Lopez moved slightly closer to Wynter and asked, “Dr. Genius, why do I feel like I’ve seen your grandma somewhere before?”
“You must be mistaken.” Wynter didn’t want to discuss this topic.
Dr. Lopez stood there, wiping his glasses. Could he have been mistaken?
Maybe he had been mistaken. The person he had encountered before was a quack who
caused a patient’s death. That couldn’t possibly be Dr. Genius’s grandma.
