Chapter 46: Grandma, It's Me
Absorbed in her own thoughts, Michelle didn't notice when she arrived at the Eastern Villa.
She only came to her senses once the driver told her that they were at her destination.
As soon as she paid the fare, she took the gifts and walked towards the gate.
"Miss Michelle, long time no see," the villa's security guard greeted her warmly.
Since Michelle frequently came to the villa, he had no problem recognizing her beautiful face.
"Long time no see, Sam."
She smiled at him.
The security guards knew almost all the relatives and friends of everyone who lived in the Eastern Villa.
Not only did this make their job more convenient, it also improved the integrity of their security service.
After all, this neighborhood was full of wealth and powerful people.
Standing at the front door of her uncle's house, Michelle still didn't have the courage to ring the doorbell.
While in the past, she would often come to this place to visit her uncle and aunt, this time her grandparents were also going to be there.
At this thought, Michelle felt a little hesitant.
However, before she could make a decision, the door suddenly opened, startling her.
"Chelle? Why haven't you come in yet?"
As soon as Claire Robinson opened the door and saw her niece standing there, she realized she must have come to visit her grandparents but was still nervous about it.
"Hi. Aunt Claire, I..."
Biting her lower lip, Michelle glanced at her aunt and then lowered her head, unsure of what to say.
"You poor girl, why are you still standing outside? Come on in.Look at the sky.It's getting dark, and it's going to rain any minute now.You'd better stay overnight.I've already asked Jane to clean up your room for you," Claire said, pulling Michelle into the house.
As she took the gifts from the girl's hands, she gave them to Jane, the housemaid.
"Jane, please prepare something delicious for our little princess tonight.Don't forget to make her favorite spareribs and chicken wings.Today, I want to catch up with Chelle.I haven't seen her for so long." Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Claire had always wanted to have a daughter, but she gave birth to three boys instead.
Although her wish was never fulfilled, she had Michelle, whom she loved very much.
She even came up with the nickname "Chelle", showing how much she was fond of her niece.
In this way, she had always treated the girl as if she was her own daughter.
Claire wanted to take over her custody from the Greenwoods, but at the time, Michelle was too young and had already been carried away by her father's relatives.
For over ten years, this had tormented Claire's mind.
'If Chelle had been raised by me, would she have suffered less? Oh, Belinda! i'm so sorry that I didn't take good care of your daughter.Will you ever forgive me for this?' she thought to herself.
"Claire, who's there?"
An old lady's voice sounded from the living room.
"It's Chelle, mom.She came to visit you!"
After answering her mother, Claire took her niece's hand and led her towards the living room.
Michelle's heart pounded in her chest as she took in her grandma's voice.
"Chelle?"
Wearing a navy blue cheongsam, Angie Thomson, Michelle's grandmother, stood up with the help of her maid.
"You said Chelle? Do you mean my granddaughter?" Angie's voice cracked with emotion.
She had been missing Michelle for over ten years, but her stubborn husband refused to come back home and let her see her granddaughter, which broke her heart.
"Grandma!"
Upon hearing Angie's voice, tears gathered in Michelle's eyes.She ran to the old lady and knelt down in front of her.
"Grandma, it's me, Chelle!"
