Chapter 2284
Just as Balfour was about to respond, Alyssa appeared at the foot of the stairs, interrupting him.
With a smile on her face, Alyssa approached. “Balfour, why are you still here? Didn’t you say you had things to do? Don’t keep Ivy waiting at the hospital for too long; she’s still a patient, after all.”
Mara knew her plans were dashed the moment Alyssa showed up.
Even if Balfour wanted to agree, Alyssa would never allow her to visit Ivy’s film set.
“Grandma Alyssa!”
She turned with a smile to greet Alyssa, who seemed to have only just noticed her presence. “Oh? Ms. Lewis, you’re here too?”
Her words were casual, after which she turned back to Balfour. “What’s holding you up, lad? If you’ve got something to do, get moving. Why are you standing around like a lost sheep?”
Balfour seemed to snap out of it and turned to Mara with a reminder, “I can’t give you a yes about visiting the set on my own. I need to check with Ivy.”
Mara’s smile grew strained. She had thought this might be her chance to visit the bustling
film set.
As if oblivious to Mara’s discomfort, Alyssa inquired naturally, “Why would you want to visit the set, Ms. Lewis? You mentioned you were quite happy spending time with us two old birds, didn’t you?”
Mara forced a laugh. “No, no. It’s just that Balfour thought I might get bored alone at home, so he suggested I could drop by Ivy’s set for a bit.”
Alyssa feigned sudden understanding. “Ah, I see. A young person like you might find it dull with us old folks. I’ll have Balfour’s people take you out for a bit. You haven’t been back home for years; I bet seeing your old haunts would be pretty novel!
But Ivy’s set isn’t a place just anyone can visit. There’s a lot going on that an outsider like you might not understand. They’re swamped with work lately. If you show up now, they might be unable to host you properly. Plus, it’s not a playground; we wouldn’t want to disrupt their workflow.”
Alyssa’s words clearly drew a line between Mara and their family, and Mara’s expression soured with every word.
In the end, Balfour suggested that if Mara was bored, she could accompany him to the hospital.
Alyssa rolled her eyes. Their grandson, Balfour, really had no clue.
Did he not think that Ivy needed rest and recovery at the hospital?
Why bring a third wheel?
Besides, in her heart, Ivy probably did not want another woman around, and here he was, seemingly eager to upset her.
