Chapter 431
I read it three times in a row, but it still wasn’t enough. I felt happy and pointed to that post and asked Christopher, “Did you hire him to write this? How could someone else know this much detail?”
“I will not use my trump card at such a meaningless place.” Christopher blinked and said, “This is someone smart. Not everyone is an idiot. The truth will always be in the hands of the wise.”
Christopher teased me so much that I couldn’t stop laughing. If he was trying to cheer me up, he certainly did it.
“You finally laughed!” Christopher breathed a sigh of relief and patted my cheek. “You haven’t even smiled lately, so I didn’t dare to smile in front of you. Come on, smile again. Let your darling have a good look at you smiling.”
I was dumbfounded. I touched my cheek and realized that I had not been smiling a lot lately. I didn’t know why, but I just didn’t feel like smiling. I bumped my head on Christopher’s chest and showed him a bright smile.
The mansion Sharon stayed in was dedicated to the elderly. The mansion was located on the mountainside because they liked to live in a quiet place. I gently sighed as I stood in front of the familiar entrance of the mansion and smelled the faint floral fragrance lingering in the air. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
I never thought that I would be back here again in my life.
As the morning breeze blew, the flowers in the garden were swaying in the wind. I remembered that I planted those flowers when Sharon first moved into the mansion and lamented the dull scenery. After two years, the garden became a cluster of flowers, and they bloomed all year round.
When I walked in, Sharon was watering the cactus lilies in the garden. When she saw me, she waved her hand at me and said, “You’re here, Yvonne. Quickly, help me water them. These cactus lilies seem to be able to recognize people. They didn’t be blooming well until you came. Look.”
“Cactus lilies are very fragile, and it always takes more effort to grow them.” I took the sprinkler and meticulously hydrated the cactus lilies, then loosened the soil with a shovel.
“I really loved to look at these flowers. When it blooms, no peonies in this world could compare to its beauty. It is so pure, like the desire in the human heart that will never stop.”
After taking care of the flowers and seeing Sharon trimming the branches of the jasmine; I picked the prettiest flower and held it in my hand.
“I prefer jasmine. They have an elegant fragrance, and they are easier to manage. Just put one in the soil, and it will bloom beautifully. Because of their tenacity, they will survive any storms that come in their way, just like me.”
Sharon’s hand spasmed and accidentally snipped off the best-looking flower. She sighed and picked up the flower. “What a pity, it’s such a beautiful flower. Molly, take the flower in the house and put it in a vase.”
“There’s no need for the trouble!” I took the flower and arranged it under the jasmine. “The fallen leaves return to their roots. It must like it better here.”
Sharon didn’t persist, but she kept staring at me with her cloudy eyes. “Yvonne, are you mad at Grandma?”
“Not at all. I’m the careless one. So I can’t blame anyone else. I will be more careful next time. I have learned my lesson.” I smiled faintly and looked back at Christopher, who was waiting for me. We learn from our mistakes. Even if I don’t, I will still know who treats me well. Isn’t that right?
Sharon’s expression changed. She was at a loss for words. “I’m the one who should say sorry. Yvonne, please forgive grandma. My hands are tied as well.”
I picked a rose and placed it in a vase in the living room in the most visible position. Then, I said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter even if I forgive you as it makes no difference. You don’t have to be obsessed with my answer. You have Lyle as your grandson. It would be best if you put his interest first. After all, he is your grandson.”
As for me, I am just an outsider. No matter how close our relationship is, I would still be an outsider. I could see it clearly now. There is nothing more inseparable than the bond of blood.
