DreameNovelChapter 387:
Gracie’s laughter resumed, her eyes twinkling with joy. “What do | have to fear at my age? If you two are happy,
then so am I.”
Kristopher joined in, smiling. “Gracie, you shouldn't settle for just that. Carrie and | hope to start a family soon.
You're going to be a great-grandmother. You've given Carrie such a wonderful gift with her musical skills; we
hope you'll share those lullabies with our child.”
“You mean you're really planning to have a baby? This isn’t just to make an old woman happy, right?” Gracie
asked, a sparkle of excitement in her voice.

Billie said gently, “Indeed, they're considering starting a family. | took them for a pre-pregnancy checkup today.
It’s something young folks might neglect, so I'm keeping an eye on it.”
Gracie tightened her grip on Billie's hand, a trace of remorse coloring her expression. “I'm truly grateful for all
your efforts. With my health declining and Carrie’s father becoming increasingly ridiculous, we're not much
help.”
“You should be relaxing at this stage in your life, not burdened with these responsibilities,” Billie replied, her
years with the Norris family giving her a skilled grace in handling delicate matters.
Billie then turned her concern to Carrie, inquiring, “How has your grandmother been holding up with her
extended hospital stay?”
Carrie gazed at her grandmother, who appeared weak on the bed, and let out a soft sigh before replying,
“Grandma's condition is stable, but all we can do is manage it conservatively. Surgery poses too great a risk, and
unfortunately, we haven't found a doctor who can offer a more definitive treatment. Even Melany’s contact
couldn't provide a solution.”
As she spoke, a thought struck her about Nate's relative, who was a specialist in this field. For Gracie’s well-
being, she considered reaching out to Nate, wondering if reconciling with him might lead to a potential cure.
Determined, she thought to herself that mending ties with Nate would be worth it if it could improve Gracie’s
health.
Gracie hadn't fully recovered yet, so their visit was brief. After exchanging pleasantries and wishing her well,
they said their goodbyes. The news that Kristopher and Carrie were planning a baby had noticeably lifted
Gracie’s spirits.

As they reached the parking lot, Billie paused just before getting into the car, her expression lighting up as she
turned to Carrie. “Oh, | almost forgot. I'm heading to a friend's house tonight for a gathering. Mrs. Quinn—you
remember her? She brought the supplements last time.”
Carrie nodded, a little uncertain why Billie had suddenly mentioned this. “Yes, | remember.”
Billie's tone turned thoughtful. “Her family has connections with several top-notch doctors. I'll ask if any of them
specialize in Gracie’s condition. Senda copy of her medical records later.”
Carrie's expression softened with gratitude. “Thank you, Billie.”
Billie, however, shifted into her usual no-nonsense tone as she slid into the car. “Don’t just thankwith words.
If you really want to thank me, focus on givinga healthy baby boy.”
Kristopher grinned at the comment. “What? What if it’s a healthy baby girl?”
