Tante Billie et Oncle Walter, Tome 3 : Un problème de cœur

Résumé

– Mais écoutez, tante Tillie, êtes-vous sûre d’avoir bien compris ? Votre neveu a l’air en pleine forme !

La vieille dame secoua ses boucles argentées.

– Tout à fait sûre. Mon mari m’a affirmé que Dave allait avoir de gros problèmes cardiaques...

Un moment, elle sembla perdue dans ses pensées.

– Quoique... depuis que le pauvre n'est plus de ce monde, nous avons quelques problèmes de communication...

Description en VO :

Aunt Tillie was getting messages from the spirit world again, telling her that Dave McGraw, her llama-ranching nephew, was having--Oh no! Heart trouble! She would have to make sure he was treated with tender loving care--especially by Jennifer Hale, the woman he'd set his sights on.

Dave couldn't understand it. The ranch hands were treating him like an invalid, pulling out his chair and refusing to let him do any work. Even Jennifer, normally full of fire and ready to fight, was always telling him to take it easy. Didn't they know there was nothing wrong with his heart that the love of the right woman couldn't cure?
