This time, Hanley's plea was sincere, and Natalie suddenly felt a wave of sadness.
She sighed softly and went to a cabinet, pulling out a box of pills.
Hanley saw the box and immediately rushed forward, snatching it from her. "Mommy, will this medicine cure Grandma's illness?" he asked excitedly.
Before Natalie could answer, Hanley stared at the box and said, "Mommy, you could have cured Grandma all along, but you deliberately said you couldn't. Did you just have to make me beg you? Mommy, you're just as dramatic as Grandma always said you were!"
Lucas felt his fists clench again. If they weren't in front of Natalie, and if this brat wasn't her son, he would have knocked him flat.
"I can't cure your grandmother's paralysis. This medicine will only lessen her pain and improve her condition, but it's not a cure."
Hanley froze, his expression turning to one of disbelief. "Mommy, what did you say? This medicine can't cure my grandmother? If it can't cure her, why did you give it to me?"
With that, he angrily threw the box of medicine onto the floor, as if Natalie had deceived him.
This time, Lucas was truly enraged. He stepped forward and shoved Hanley.
