When Crystal Foster arrived at the restaurant's private room, Marvin Mitchell was already there.
"Sorry, I'm late," she said.
Marvin smiled gently and slid the menu toward her. "No, I was early. Let's eat and chat. I brought my father's recent medical reports. Could you and Mrs. Riley take a look?"
That was a bit too obvious, Crystal thought to herself. But since she had decided to work with Marvin, there was no point in hiding things any longer.
"Sure, I was planning to visit Uncle Robert soon anyway," she replied.
Crystal took the folder, which contained not only the medical report but also various test results for Robert Foster. His leg was recovering well, though given his age, a full recovery was unlikely.
She shared these insights with Marvin. "Marvin, you know Uncle Robert's situation. He's been through a lot over the years. I'll do my best, and he will be much better than before, but a complete recovery might be difficult."
