After she heard what Ivy Haddock said, Miranda had no choice but to accept her fate and ended the phone call. She was saddened by the fact that their friends' day out was suddenly ruined by the appearance of that annoying girl, and she was also grateful that Isaiah Kenton came at the right time to save her from humiliation. Isaiah smiled at her."I assume your best friend needed to leave immediately?” Miranda gave her a skeptical look, "Did you do or say anything to make her leave like that, Mr. Kenton" she asked. Isaiah shook his head, "I am not thatbored to stoop that low just to go shopping with you, Miranda. Besides, I don't even know your best friend!" He chuckled. Well, he has a point. Alright, I'll stop,” shemused inwardly. In the meantime, Miranda was convinced of his explanations; he escaped beingsuspicious. Isaiah felt that Miranda had already calmed down, so she asked, "Well. Ms. Kenton, can I have the pleasure to invite you to join me for shopping?" How could I
Miranda slept unsteadily and dreamt of her child, a cute fittie boy. “Mom!...Mom!” He was fair-skinned andfat, his eyes were big but looked pitifulbecause of the tears in his eyes. He was looking for his mother everywhere with his clumsy little legs. Miranda's heart ached when she saw this.and she hurriedly said, "Baby. Mom is here” She opened her hands to hug him. but he just walked away with tears rolling down his cheeks an kept shouting. "Mom.where are you? Don't leave me, I'm scared, I can't live without you” Miranda's heart was like being stabbed by a knife, so painful that she couldn't breathe. Her tears fell uncontrollably, She picked up the little boy and said. "Baby. I am your mother" The little boy struggled and cried ina grievance, "You're not my mother! MomMom!" He suddenly cried out in joy and waved his behind Miranda. Miranda was surprised She turned aroundand saw an unknown woman walking towards the little boy with a smile. The little boy shouted even happ
Afternoon came and her schedule was full, but Grandpa Max arranged alunch with her at their family house.She wasn't ready to go over to the family house. However, grandpa Max assured her that there wasn't anyone else at home aside from him. Miranda didn't want to be involved withLucas's grandfather after their bitter separation.She thought that it would be better if she cut her ties completely with the Grant family. The old man was just making everythingdifficult for her to move on by constantlyreaching out to her while she was abroad.But as much as she wanted to stop hercommunication with his grandfather, shehad no choice. Maxwell Grant was the only one in their family who treated her nicely before. She couldn't just put his name under the people that she completely blacklisted. Grandpa Max's cervical spine wasn'tin excellent condition. As a result, the oldman turned on the air conditioner nonstop in summer, so he wouldn't risk standing up and complaining about the heat. M
Grandpa Max's words left Lucas astonished. He had thought that Miranda had come on purpose to get close to the old man. He was sure that she had an underlying intention. But it turned out that his grandfather haddeliberately forced them to meet. Lucas's gaze darted across the room andeventually settled on the gift box thatMiranda had left. He thought she bought an old-fashioned gift for Steven and did not let the opportunity pass and mocked her. Now, he realized that the color was very ideal for the old gentleman. Lucas was baffled after making the wrongassumptions about Miranda twice. It took him a whole lot of minutes before he pursed his lips and turned to leave. Miranda was standing in front of the house, head-faced down while using her phone to book a taxi. The Grant family lived in the half mountain villa area, so it was not easy to get a taxi. Lucas walked toward her and took theinitiative to say, "Uh, You know what, it's not easy to take a taxi here. Let me just send y
As soon as he heard the delightful news,Andrew's voice suddenly became sweet. "Oh.good, good. Who is this girl we're talking about? Grandpa, I trust that you have very good taste, so I will definitely go and meet her as soon as it's all set" Lucas's face darkened again and he almost wanted to press Andrew to the ground. He knew Andrew was a playboy but he didn't know that he would just say yes without even knowing who the girl was. Grandpa Max tested the atmosphere before speaking. "Well, what do you think of Miranda? Miranda Quentin". A heavy sound came, followed by Andrew's howling. which sounded as if there were ghosts and wolves on the other line, "Ah... Aww... Hot! It's burning me to death!" After a series of chaotic noises, Andrew'svoice surfaced again, "Grandpa, I'm really sorry. I just knocked over the coffee." He sounded weird all of a sudden. "What did you just say? Sorry, I didn't hearyou clearly. Could you say that again?"Andrew said with a hint of panic in his voi
The Grant family Manor The loud cacophonous sound could be heard from the living room of the Grant family. It felt as if the family members were having a conflict. “Lucia! Lucia!” Victor Grant called out to his daughter, Lucia Grant. The expression on his face was ugly and the veins on his forehead popped out like an angry tigress in defense of her pups. He was breathing heavily and his voice was cold and hoarse as he shouted. As soon as everyone heard his loud voice from the living room, they all came running to the living room to find out what the problem was. “Darling, what happened? Why are you yelling so much?” Flora Grant asked as she rushed toward her husband immediately she stepped down the stairs. “You should ask your dear daughter about that? You should ask her what she has done this time!” Victor Grant flared up angrily. His eyes were flashing with anger while his hands clenched angrily, and his teeth vibrated involuntarily. Hearing her name from the
“Grandma!!” They heard a loud outcry from the door and they quickly turned around in unison. They all had perplexed expressions on their faces when they saw what happens. Lucas Grant rushed into the living room and headed towards the staircase once he saw the situation before him. He was so shaken that he felt his legs moving swiftly like a trained dog and he wouldn't stop in his tracks until he got to the place. All the rest of the family also rushed over after seeing what was happening at the staircase to the first floor. “Grandma!” Lucas Grant rushed over and his grandmother, Wendy. Who was leaning in his grandfather's embrace? She was falling over and it seem like she was having difficulty breathing– Her face looked pale and her groggy body was too dark to carry her weight. So she ended up falling over. It's a good thing that grandpa Max was right beside her to hold her back from falling over. “Mother, are you alright? What's going on with her?” Flora asked, as soon
“So, your old lady hasn't hurt after all. Just a bag of drama and sympathy. hump!” Flora shot a disdainful glare at her husband before walking into the room. Victor was stunned for a moment and it took a few seconds before regaining his senses and walking into the room as well. When he entered the room, Grandpa Max was sitting on the chair beside the bed while holding onto grandma Wendy's hand. He looked at her with a complicated gaze upon seeing how pale she looked. Lucas was standing behind the old man and Lucia stood close to the door while stealing a few glances at her grandmother. She had a few words to say but she didn't dare to interrupt the atmosphere between the two. Suddenly, Flora rushed into the room shouting. “Oh, Mother! I was so worried about you. What happened to you, dear mother!” She shouted dramatically and her voice was filled with sadness as if she had indeed been so worried about the older woman. Grandma Wendy could see through the pretentious act that s
