Ex-husband’s Regret

Chapter

548

Before I could finish speaking, Grandma continued, "My little Lily has grown up and wants to support Grandma, right?"

I pursed my lips. "But I still haven't been able to do anything for you. Even the antidote, we don't know when it will be available." "What's there to be afraid of?"

Grandma was much more open-minded than I was and sighed, "I've been thinking about your grandfather for a long time. If it weren't for the Shaw family, I would have gone to join him long ago."

"It's just that you have to work hard to hold up this mess of the Shaw family. Grandma doesn't want you involved, but there's no other way." 7 know, I know..."

Hearing Grandma's tone as if she was arranging her final affairs, tears streamed down my face. I clung to her, crying and choking up, "When I was little, I envied other kids who had grandparents. Now that I finally have you, I don't want you to leave me. I don't want to lose you."

At that moment, I understood the burden Frank carried on his shoulders.

The honor and disgrace, the rise and fall of an entire family.

"Oh..." Grandma cried too, but still smiled to comfort me. "Silly child, I'm still here, aren't I? There's no need to cry, or Frank will see you and say you're just like when you were little, a crybaby."

I blinked hard, trying to hold back the tears. "He wouldn't dare!"

"I wouldn't dare do what?"

The slightly ajar door was knocked on twice. The usually unruly man stood at the door in casual wear and explained to Grandma, "I didn't mean to interrupt you and Charlotte, but I heard her crying and couldn't help it."

"You came at the right time!" Grandma quickly said. "She's your wife, so you take her away and figure out

how to cheer her up."

I sighed and didn't know what to say

Frank chuckled, didn't say anything further, and directly wiped away my tears, picking me up in his arms," Then we'll head to our room. Rest early, and call us if you need anything."

I hurriedly said, "What are you talking about? Who wants to go to the room with you?"

Please, even if we're cohabiting before marriage, don't be so openly righteous about it.

But Grandma had excellent hearing and, before Frank could respond, said first, "Don't worry, I'm not an old-fashioned stickler. Besides, Frank has grown up under my watch. I trust him." My ears turned red.

Frank smiled, "Thank you, Grandma!"

Back in the room, I held the brown paper bag in my hand, feeling as if a boulder was crushing my chest.

Frank set me down on the floor, held me around the waist, and looked down at me, "Are you angry?" "No..."

I shook the brown paper bag. "Guess.... what this is?"

"Gift agreement?"

"How did you know?"

"Grandma must know about her poisoning." Frank ruffled my hair. "During dinner tonight, she kept serving you food."

He didn't say the rest, but I understood.

It seemed like she knew her time was limited and wanted to serve me every dish from now on. That was why it hurt so much.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Frank pressed his forehead against mine. "Charlotte, trust me, Grandma will be fine, okay?"

I sniffle., "Okay!"

"That's a good girl."

He held me even tighter, pressing perfectly against me. "That's a

I pushed him away a little. "You've showered, but I haven't. Don't hold me so tight."

We had just come back from the hospital.

Frank not only didn't loosen his hold but also planted a lingering kiss on my lips, his voice low and husky Shall we go have a shower together?"
