Chapter 1145 Outside, a blanket of snow covered the land, making it difficult for anyone, especially the elderly and the sick, to venture out without catching a cold.

Serena couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed. She thought, “Why can't she just mind her own business?” But she still cajoled her grandmother, "The view outside is so beautiful, Grandma. If we wait any longer, the sun will set and we won't be able to see this stunning winter wonderland.’ Belinda and Serena's mother had a habit of indulging her requests—a habit she had been nurturing for eighteen years. This twas no different.

“Alright, alright. Let's go outside.” Serena was overjoyed. As she tried to help her grandmother onto the wheelchair, she found that her grandmother was heavier than she expected. Despite her best efforts, she couldn't lift her.

“You're not even half as strong as Bella." Belinda chuckled. “Despite her petite frame, Bella's quite strong." Serena quickly turned to the maid, "Why aren't you helping me?" "You're sweating, Serena.” Belinda noticed beads of sweat forming on Serena's forehead and chuckled again.

“Don't rush, it's okay.” Finally, with the maid's help, Serena managed to move her grandmother onto the wheelchair.

“Madam, Serena, I'll join you two,” the maid volunteered.

“No need. | can take care of Grandma,’ Serena insisted.

Before the maid could respond, Serena continued, "Why can't | take Grandma out alone? Are you afraid that | won't take care of her as well as my sister, or that you can't trust me?” “Serena, that's not what | meant at all!" The maid was taken aback by Serena's sudden outburst.

Serena pushed her grandmother outside, ignoring the maid. Belinda understood Serena's intentions and reassured her, "Nata meant no harm, Serena. You know how sick | am. She's just worried about me.” “IL won't let anything dangerous happen to you. If something does happen, it'll be tofirst.” "Don't say such things, it's bad luck.” Belinda chuckled, changing the topic.

"Look, Grandma! That blossom tree is blooming. It's so beautiful! Lettake you closer” Serena perked up.

The pink blossoms were a sight for sore eyes.

"Letpick sfor you to admire indoors," Serena suggested, reaching for a low hanging branch. But even with her tip-toes, she couldn't reach.

Watching Serena, Belinda was reminded of Serena's childhood. “I remember when you were little and you tried to pick fruits from the tree. You'd bounce around just like this.” Before she could finish her sentence, Serena landed heavily, bumping into the wheelchair. The icy ground was slippery, causing the wheelchair to slide forward. And just ahead was a downward slope.

"Grandma!" Serena rushed forward in panic.

Belinda, too, was frightened. She tried to hold onto the wheel to stop it from spinning, but the wheel moved too quickly. It scraped against her hand, causing a painful burn.

Although Serena managed to grip the handle of the wheelchair, the ground was too slippery and the wheelchair too heavy. Unable to resist, Serena was dragged along with the wheelchair down the slope.

“Ouch” Due to inertia, Belinda's body slammed against a decorative rock nearby. A cut opened on her forehead.

Serena was not spared either. She rolled down the slope, further away from Belinda, until she hit a tree. Her entire body ached from the collision.
