Mr. Finn’s Spoiled Wife Plan

When he came out of Cara’s room, Levi looked down at the box in his hand, a box carved from fine pearwood, emitting a faint fragrance, with a very delicate lock on it, no key in sight, presumably the old lady had already given the key to Ruby.

Levi returned to his home with the box in his arms, and after thinking about it, he sent a message to Ruby to remind her of Cara’s condition.

When Ruby received the news, she froze for a moment, got up and went to knock on the door of the old lady’s room.

The room was quiet inside and no one answered the door. Ruby stood at the door for a while before pushing it open and entering.

The old lady was lying asleep on the bed, breathing long. She went over and sat down, grabbed her hand and took her pulse to make sure it was just normal aging and that there wasn’t much wrong with her body before she put her hand down, gently helped her put the cover back on and went out of the room.

After leaving the house, she thought of what Levi had said that Zack liked calligraphy and painting, so she went to Olivia’s room.

Olivia’s room was always so clean and tidy, things are put in their regular places strictly to her liking and tidied up immaculately.

When she saw Ruby, Olivia was so happy, she sat there looking at Ruby and spoke in a sweet voice, “Mommy.”

Looking at the exquisite and lovely little girl in front of her, Ruby could never really accept her, she pursed her lips and stood there for a while before she spoke somewhat stiffly, “Well, give me some of your paintings.”

“Okay.” Olivia went off happily to find paintings for Ruby.

She loved to paint and did not like to go out of her room, just stayed in her room painting, as if she was immersed in a world of her own, very resistant to the outside world.

Ruby looked at Olivia’s tiny back and could not help but sigh.

Olivia opened the drawer and quickly brought over a thick stack of paintings, standing there somewhat hesitantly and speaking in a small voice, “Which one do you like, Mommy?”

Ruby reached out and picked up the painting in her hand.

She rarely looked at Olivia’s paintings seriously, because of that one incident five years ago, she was actually very resistant to Olivia, and would try to stay away if she could, sometimes not even speaking to Olivia for a long time.

It could be said that a large part reason of Olivia’s autism was due to her.

Ruby looked down at the painting in her hand. Olivia’s paintings were very vivid and bold in colour, rendering a colourful and spiritual world. Just by looking at these paintings, she could feel that the person who painted them must be someone who loved life and the world very much.

The more she looked at it, the more shocked she was. After she finished looking at the painting in her hand, she looked at Olivia differently.

She was silent for a long time before she knelt down in front of Olivia.

Olivia was much thinner than the average child because she was originally a month earlier than the expected delivery time. At that time Ruby was still young and was too busy caring for her grandmother’s illness and studying to think about anything else, and she didn’t even know she was pregnant at all until the baby was suddenly born and she was taken aback.

“I may not be a qualified mother, but I want to learn how to be a good mother, can you give me this opportunity?” Looking at the child with clean eyes in front of her, Ruby seemed to be touched gently by something in her heart.

She reached out her hand and placed it in front of Olivia’s face, then spoke to him gently for the first time.

Olivia was flattered and looked at Ruby for a while before carefully placing her hand in Ruby’s, “Mom?”

“You should not always lock yourself in your room from now on, if you want to go somewhere, you can tell me and I will take you there.” Ruby pursed her lips for a while before she spoke softly.

“Okay.” Olivia nodded happily at once.

Ruby looked at the smile on her face and was touched, unable to help but smile along with her.

It seemed that it was not as difficult as she might think to open her heart completely.

She took Olivia’s paintings and went out of her room. After she returned to her room and sat down, she thought of Olivia’s happy cry for her mother just now, and the time when she reached out and grabbed her hand. That feeling, which she had never experienced before, was amazing and had not completely brought her back to her senses until now.

After a while of dithering, she picked out two paintings, made a frame by hand, packed them inside the gift box, and included an extra small bottle of pills before she was finally relieved.

Early the next morning, Ruby got up and saw Olivia sitting in the living room, talking to Cara.

The old lady seemed to be in a good mood and looked rosy. Although Olivia said little, she responded when the old lady spoke to her and the two of them actually got along harmoniously.

“Grandma, Olivia.” Ruby stood and watched for a while before she walked over.

Olivia looked coyly at Ruby, her eyes shining brightly, as if she was waiting to be praised.

Ruby was a little uneasy by that look in her eyes, and it was only after a while that she coughed and opened her mouth to compliment her, “Olivia, you are good today.”

Olivia nodded happily at once.

Seeing that she was contented, Ruby felt guilty.

She had really cared too little for Olivia in the past.

The three had lunch and at 4pm Levi came to pick up Ruby to go to the Sharp’s.

Ruby had already told the old lady, so she took the two framed paintings with her, as they were painted by Olivia, neither of which was too big.

“Didn’t I tell you not to bring a gift?” Levi looked at Ruby carrying a large gift bag, his face full of helplessness.

“It’s not for you, it’s for your grandfather.” Ruby explained in a serious manner.

Levi could not say anything else, seeing her serious look.

It was still dark when the two arrived at Sharp’s.

Knowing that Levi was going to bring Ruby back today, Zack had been looking forward to it with great anticipation.

His wife Vivian couldn’t help but laugh at him.

As soon as Levi and Ruby entered the door, Zack immediately put on another act as if nothing was wrong.

“Your grandfather has been looking forward to your arrival since he got up in the morning.” When she saw Levi and Ruby come over, Vivian couldn’t help but spoke to them.

Levi couldn’t help but laugh, “Didn’t I tell you guys that we would arrive around six?”

“Your grandfather is impatient.” Vivian gave Zack a blank look.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

As Ruby looked at the relaxing scene, she finally understood why Levi would like the Sharp family.

It was more like a home than the Finn family.

She listened in silence as Vivian teased Zack before handing over the gift she had brought over, “Grandpa, this is a gift for you. This is for grandma.”
