Jocelyn was instantly annoyed when she saw such a mischievous child. “You…”
Grace put her hand under her lips and made a funny face at Jocelyn.
Already angry, Jocelyn became even more upset when she saw the funny face. “Your aunt taught you to be like this?”
She couldn’t believe it and looked Grace up and down.
After sizing her up, Jocelyn grabbed Grace.
“Come, let’s go home with grandma. Grandma will find the best teacher for you, even if I have to beg the royal family. I will make sure you are taught properly.”
Although Grace was a little chubby, she was still young. When Jocelyn pulled her so forcefully, her whole body fell forward.
Just as she was about to fall to the ground, a large hand caught her body in time and then lifted her up with a strong force. gradually revealed a face that was as cold as ice, yet sculpted with handsome features.
“Uncle Andrew!”
Grace was extremely excited to see Andrew and quickly opened her arms, embracing his neck.
Today, uncle looked just as handsome as when he kicked open the door to the dark room and pulled her out of the cage.
As Grace hugged Andrew, her lollipop bumped against his clothes…
After enduring for two seconds, the man couldn’t bear it anymore. He lifted her by the collar and put her down.
Grace’s shining eyes immediately drooped. Sure enough, uncle was still the annoying uncle.
Andrew’s cold gaze shifted to Jocelyn. “So, you think you can’t win the lawsuit, so you’re trying to snatch the child first?” Jocelyn, with a dark expression, snorted, “Do I need to snatch. my own granddaughter?”
Grace pointed at Jocelyn and complained to Andrew, “This bad When we go to court, I have to choose her.”
The man, who had already guessed Jocelyn’s thoughts, glanced at Grace and asked calmly, “Did you agree to her?” Filled with anger, Grace said, “I didn’t agree, that’s why she wanted to take me away. Luckily, the teacher stopped her.” The teacher standing at the school gate instinctively swallowed a mouthful of saliva when she felt Andrew’s icy gaze. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and didn’t let Jocelyn take the child away. Otherwise, this man would definitely tear her apart!
Don’t ask why, just know that his gaze was too frightening, as if he could devour someone at any moment…
Andrew only glanced casually and didn’t know how scary he looked. He even thought that his gaze towards the teacher just now was quite friendly.
After the man withdrew his “friendly” gaze, he didn’t even look at Jocelyn and went straight to Grace, saying, “Let’s go home.”””
Grace nodded and reached out her chubby little hand, wanting to hold Andrew’s hand, but his stern look made her retract her hand in fear.
Alright, she forgot that only her aunt could touch Uncle Andrew, no other woman, including her.
Seeing Grace happily following Andrew, Jocelyn clenched her fists in anger!
Fine, let you have a few more days, I’ll see how arrogant you are when the lawsuit is over!
Rosalyn, who was already on her way, breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Andrew had brought Grace back, and quickly told Peter to turn around.
She went back and asked Grace a series of questions, only to find out that Jocelyn’s intention was for Grace to choose her during the court hearing.
Anthony had said that the judge in court would ask the child’s opinion, and whoever the child chose would be granted custody.
Fortunately, Grace was clever enough to know what going to court meant and understood what Jocelyn was saying, otherwise she would have been easily deceived and taken away by Jocelyn.
Rosalyn was worried that it wouldn’t be safe for Grace to go to school until the trial, so she decided to personally pick her up and drop her off during this time.
Andrew wanted to send someone, but seeing her concern, he nodded and said, “I’ll go with you.”
Andrew was worried if Rosalyn go out alone, thankfully Paul had been helping out lately, and with the reduced workload at the company, he had time to accompany her. Rosalyn hugged Andrew’s arm and didn’t know when it started, but as long as he was there, even if the sky fell, she wouldn’t be afraid.
After hugged Andrew for a while, she got up and went to find Eva.
Grace was safe at home for now, so Rosalyn didn’t have to worry and could go out.
Andrew accompanied her to the hospital, but he didn’t go upstairs since she was just going to have a heart-to-heart talk with her best friend, so he waited in the car.
As soon as Rosalyn reached the door of the ward, she saw Jayden holding Eva’s hand, begging her desperately, “Eva, don’t break up with me, I’m begging you.”
Hearing this, Rosalyn immediately realized that Eva had made her decision, which was why she broke up with Jayden, but she didn’t know how she brought it up.
Jayden’s reluctance and unwillingness made Eva, who had finally gathered her courage, somewhat helpless. “Senior, your mother doesn’t want us to be together, why force it?”
Jayden tightly held her hand, his eyes red and pleading. “Eva, my mom is not me. Just because she doesn’t want to, doesn’t mean I don’t want to. Please don’t break up with me because of her. I can’t handle it.”
Eva looked at the person in the hospital room with difficulty. “But your mom already tried to commit suicide by cutting her wrist. Don’t you care about her life?”
Jayden shook his head. “I can’t control everything. I just want to be with you. I don’t want to lose you…”
Eva knew that Jayden wouldn’t neglect his own mother. He only said those words out of desperation because she wanted to break up. After a moment of silence, she advised, “Your relationship with your mother is inseparable. You can’t ignore her forever. When these situations happen repeatedly, you’ll get tired and compromise. Since you’ll ultimately compromise, it’s better to break up from the beginning to avoid your mother repeatedly attempting suicide.”
With things getting to this point, Eva no longer spoke gently in front of Jayden.
However, Jayden seemed as if he didn’t understand, completely ignoring everything. He held Eva tightly. “If you break up with me like this, I’m afraid the next one to cut their wrist will be me.”
Eva was startled. “Senior, what nonsense are you talking about?”
Jayden held her tightly. “Eva, even though our time together has been short, I’ve liked you for a long time. It’s genuine. Without you, I don’t know what to do in the future…”
He truly liked her. The crush from his younger years was real, and the heart-fluttering feeling upon reuniting was also real. He just used some tactics to try and keep her, because he never had her. It was ruined by his mother like this, and he was truly unwilling to accept it.
Faced with this kind of Jayden, Eva didn’t know what to do. She felt lost. “Senior, you…”
Jayden interrupted her. “I’ll handle my mother. Don’t worry, I won’t let her cause trouble for you again.”
Eva opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, Jayden suddenly let go of her and knelt in front of her.
“Please, don’t give up on me.”
Eva was shocked and stood there for a while before realizing she should go and pull him, but he pushed her away.
“If you don’t agree, I won’t get up.”
Rosalyn, who witnessed this scene, suddenly understood why Eva was afraid to speak up.
Facing such a pathetic man, Eva couldn’t bring herself to be cruel because she couldn’t find it in her heart to be cruel to someone who made her feel like he wasn’t at fault. If he wasn’t at fault, why treat him this way? It wouldn’t be fair.
Rosalyn didn’t know if Eva felt the same way, but that’s how she felt now.
