Just as Lucas was about to respond, Beatrice suddenly appeared downstairs, interrupting him.
Beatrice walked over with a smile. "Lucas, why are you still here? Don't you have something to do? Don't let Melody wait in the hospital for too long. She's still a patient after all."
Upon seeing the elderly woman approaching, Thalia understood that her plan might not work out. Even if Lucas was willing to agree, Beatrice would surely not allow her to go to Melody's film set. She turned and greeted Beatrice with a smile. "Hello, Grandma Beatrice."
Beatrice, as if just noticing her, said, "Oh? You're here too?"
She then looked at Lucas. "You must be back here for a reason. Why are you still standing here foolishly?"
Lucas finally reacted. He quickly said to Thalia, "I need to check with Melody first to see if you can go to the film set. I'm afraid I can't make that decision on my own."
Thalia's smile looked a bit forced. She had hoped to seize this opportunity to visit Melody's film set.
Beatrice, seemingly oblivious, asked her casually, "Why go to the film set? You did say you enjoy staying at home with us two old folks, right?"
Thalia awkwardly chuckled. "Yeah... But it's just that Lucas thought I might get bored here, so he suggested taking me to Melody's film set to have a look..."
Beatrice then pretended to have an epiphany. "Oh, so you find it boring to be with us? How about I have Lucas' men take you out? After all, you haven't been back here for so many years. It must be quite fascinating to see the place again! But I'm afraid not just anyone can go to Melody's film set, and there are many things you, as an outsider, may not understand.
"Her film crew is quite busy lately, and if you go there now, they won't be able to entertain you properly. Plus, it's not a place for leisure. You going there will just delay their work."
Beatrice made it crystal clear that there was a clear boundary between Thalia and the Rivera family.
Thalia's expression became increasingly unpleasant.
In the end, Lucas suggested that if Thalia was bored, she could accompany him to the hospital.
Beatrice rolled her eyes, thinking that her grandson was really clueless. 'Why would he take her there? Doesn't he know Melody needs all the rest she can get? Plus, his company is all she needs! What's more I bet Melody doesn't want to see Thalia at all. Does he want to make her unhappy?'
