out her phone to text Whitby.
    “ Where
is Andrea?” Max asked.
    “ She’s
taking care of canceling or rescheduling appointments sir. She should
be here this afternoon.”
    “ Right.
Good.” Max said.
    “ Also,
your mother called,” Martha said tentatively.
    Max was silent,
staring at the ceiling.
    “ She…wanted
to know how serious it was,” Martha said.
    Max turned to look at
her. “What did you tell her Martha?” he demanded.
    Martha shrugged her
ample shoulders. “I told her the doctors didn’t know. She
asked me to keep her informed.”
    Max’s eyes
narrowed and Martha hastened to add, “I said I would tell you
to get in touch.”
    Max’s brow
cleared and he snorted, “She probably was hoping I’d cop
it and she’d have a chance at inheriting everything.”
    “ Yes
sir,” Martha said obediently.
    Max looked around the
room, his frown returning.
    “ I
have some things for you in the car, your robe, slippers, laptop,
some flowers to brighten the room and your throw rug for the floor,”
Martha said seeing the frown. Max nodded his approval.
    “ Great,
bring them in. Especially the laptop,” he said.
    Martha nodded and
left as Max lay back.

    “ Hey
gra, how are you?” Christine called as she heard her
grandmother come in. She looked at the clock tick tick ticking away
in the hall. Ten pm. Late even by her grandmother’s standards.
That Mr. Lestrange worked her too hard.
    “ I’m
good, how are you?” Martha replied.
    “ Wonderful.
We got a new intern at work today. Eager to please, good looking…I
hate him,” Christine replied.
    Martha laughed
shaking her head. “What am I going to do with you Chris?”
    “ Stop
calling me by a boy’s name?” Christine asked. “Anyway,
why are you home so late? Another dinner party?”
    Martha stopped
massaging her feet to look up at Christine in surprise. “Mr.
Lestrange is in the hospital Chris, show some compassion.”
    “ What?
What happened?” Christine asked moving to help her grandmother
with her other shoe.
    “ The
doctors say it's some kind of infection. I don’t have the
details. I’m not kin,” Martha said.
    Christine snorted,
“You’re as much kin as any that man has.”
    Martha did not
disagree.
    “ So…?
Is he gonna be okay or are you out of a job?”
    Martha glared at her.
“You are so unfeeling at times girl.”
    “ I’m
not…I just…I don’t think Max appreciates you as
much as he should,” she said.
    Martha smiled. “Girl
you know nothing. Now go get me a cuppa tea and stop bitchin,”
she said making Christine laugh as she went.
