Chapter 96
Just as Chlow was about to torn and leave, she suddenly heard Carohna’s heavy and aged voice
She froze in her tracks
She looked at Carolina with a bit of surprise, seeing the old lady gazing up at her with a face of heartbreak and disappointment.
She rendered how this old lady used to dote on her
But then, w
hen other people’s interests got involved, w
han someone else knew how to butter up the old lady better, w
hen she was quietly watching their joy from the cother
They all gradually drifted further and further away from her
All she wanted was to hold onto the last shred of familial love, but she ended up in such a pitiful state.
Disappointment
No one was more disappointed than her
She never thought that in this world, love and affection could be stolen from her
“That’s just how you guys see it. Whatever i do is wrong if I do nothing, it’s still wrong. You guys will always be disappointed in me.”
Chloe said coldly, then headed for the backyard
According to her grandfather’s habits, he should be in the backyard
Looking at the modest courtyard, Chloe’s pace slowed down.
Her grandpa was always laid back, unconcerned with gains and losses, and always went with the flow
Otherwise, the company wouldn’t have ended up in Grandma’s hands.
Grandma’s competitive nature was in stark contrast to Grandpa’s.
The busy cervants in the backyard saw Chloe, hesitated for a moment, then snapped back to reality.
Miss Chloe, you’re finally back! Old Mr. Summers has been asking about you every day!”
Chloe forced a smile and nodded
16 Grandpa resting?”
“Chloe, is that Chise?”
A raspy, old voice came from the house, sounding somewhat eager.
Chine turned and pulled aside the curtain to enter the room.
Seeing the white haired old man on the bed, Chloe lowered her eyes slightly and walked in.
“Grandpa, Chloe stood by the bed and called softly.
Jonah Summers looked up at Chloe, seeing her vibrant appearance, he smiled contently.
It’s been a long time”
Chloe set down and smiled, “I’m sorry, Grandpa.”
Jonah patted her hand gently and sighed.
Theard about you and Lance. Have you tried letting it go?”
A better lock flashed across Chloe’s face. She held Jonah’s wrinkled hand lightly and replied in a low voice.
Lance and I have been together for eight years. I never thought we would come to this… I was caught off guard…”
”
“Grandpa, do you know that feeling? It’s like… I thought he was my rock, but one day I got hurt in this relationship… And all I could do was to minimize my losses and lessen the pain.”
3 really can’t let it go I’m the one who was betrayed! Please forgive me, Grandpa, I’m not willing to accept it. I can’t forgive Lance and Keira!”
Tears welled up in Chloe’s eyes. Only in front of this old man could she show a bit of vulnerability.
Jonah rarely saw Chloe so helpless His face showed a trace of pity and sympathy.
“Chice, you’re a smart and excellent girl, you deserve a better man! If Lance is like this, it’s okay to give up on him.”
Chloe nodded, know” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
