Chapter 190 Grandpa Still Loves Her
After Elizabeth heard that, there was only one thought running through her mind. I’m no longer part of the Wade family
since a long time ago.
She was now on her own. That was why she couldn’t feel their joy.
Approaching her, a housekeeper said respectfully, “Ms. Elizabeth, Old Mr. Wade wants to see you in his study.”
Elizabeth didn’t come to see any of those people who were partying. She just came since her grandpa told her to do so.
She, too, wanted to see him.
She nodded, saying. “Thank you.”
The housekeeper brought her around the bustling living room and went up to the study on the second floor.
She then gestured at the door. “Ms. Elizabeth, Old Mr. Wade is waiting inside. Please.”
After that, she turned around and left. Elizabeth then pushed open the door.
As she walked into the study, she noticed nothing had changed even after so many years.
The wooden flooring radiated a vintage vibe, and the walls were covered with wooden bookshelves.
There was also a wooden lift, which was probably what Michael used to get books from the higher shelves.
However, Elizabeth knew that Michael never really got the books himself. The housekeepers would do it for him.
She slowly made her way to the front of the desk and smiled. “Grandpa.”
Michael was holding onto his wife’s picture with much care. His eyes clearly showed how much he missed her.
He lifted his head and looked at Elizabeth, who was the spitting image of his wife. In an instant, his eyes misted over.
“Lizzy, come here.”
Walking to his side, Elizabeth caught sight of the picture.
“Grandpa, are you thinking of Grandma again?”
He nodded. “The family feast was set by your grandma, but she has already left us.
Elizabeth gently held onto Michael’s shoulder. “Grandpa, I’m sure Grandma is watching over you. She wouldn’t want to
see you like this. She wants you to be happy.”
After that, she pulled out a lollipop.
This candy is really sweet. It’s as sweet as me.”
Michael’s eyes glimmered when he heard her. That was how she used to coax him back then.
He took the lollipop, removed the wrapping, and put it in his mouth. With a chuckle, he nodded “It’s sweet!”
Seeing that, Elizabeth smiled happily, her eyes curving into crescent moons. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Slowly, the smile on Michael’s face vanished. He took out the lollipop and looked at it.
“Is this your kid’s lollipop?”
Elizabeth froze, a slight nervousness flashing across her face.
She slowly tightened her fingers before finally nodding
Michael then tasted the lollipop again. “I’m sure they’re as sweet as the candy too.”
Taking a deep breath, Elizabeth said, “Grandpa, I know you don’t like hearing about what happened back then. It’s also at scar that would stay with me forever. However, the kids are innocent. They are lovely and adorable. I do not regret having
them.”
To Elizabeth, her three babies were gifts from the heavens. She cherished them very much.
“Next time, bring them here. I would like to see them.”
Elizabeth widened her eyes.
Overjoyed, she immediately answered, “Definitely, Grandpa.”
Michael then stood up. “Let’s go out and have some fun. Tia found herself a great husband, so everyone’s celebrating”
With that, Elizabeth supported Michael and went downstairs to the living room.
When the Ashtons saw Michael, they stopped partying and approached him.
“Dad.”
“Grandpa.”
Michael nodded at them. “Carry on.”
They then turned their gazes toward Elizabeth. Upon seeing her, they instantly recalled the luxury car they saw that
night.
They had looked it up afterward and found out how valuable it was,
Noticing the necklace Elizabeth was wearing. Francine walked forward and lifted the pendant.
What brand is this? The workmanship is pretty special.”
