However, the familiar stern yet loving male voice didn't come through. Instead, it was her great-grandmother's anxious tone, "Momo, you've finally answered the phone. Come quickly, your great-grandfather... he's not doing well..."
At those words, Ling Momo's mind went blank.
Her great-grandfather wasn't doing well—what did that mean?
"Great-Grandmother, what are you saying?"
"Momo, your great-grandfather suddenly collapsed. He's in the hospital now, being resuscitated... The doctor said, he might not make it and he's insisted on seeing you one last time..."
Upon hearing this, Ling Momo's mind exploded.
