After She She Stopped Loving Him

Chapter 125

Yolanda answered softly, “Mm.”

Grandma Flora, pleased, reached out and gave Yolanda’s hand a gentle pat..

The room was filled with the soothing aroma of sandalwood. Yolanda, not eager to go downstairs and bother anyone, chose to linger a bit longer. She stayed quietly until Charles came upstairs to call her.

Only then did she respectfully say her goodbyes to Grandma Flora.

Grandma Flora, wearing a jade ring on her hand, motioned for Charles to come closer. “Charles, come here. Grandma wants to have a word with you.”

It was obvious she wanted Yolanda to step out.

Yolanda, catching on quickly, quietly slipped out of the room.

Once Yolanda was out of the room, Grandma Flora took Charles’s hand with a gentle smile. “I won’t be around much longer, and honestly, all I want is to see you have a child before I go. Charles, what are you really thinking? If you don’t care for Yolanda, then just divorce her and marry someone you actually love. Your mother was wrong to keep you away from that girl all those years ago. Who could’ve guessed you’d marry Yolanda just to spite her? You really are stubborn, you know?”

Grandma Flora let out a long sigh, patting the back of his hand twice. “I’ve probably got less than two years left. Your grandpa is always plotting something, and those uncles of yours are no saints either. Even though I hardly leave this room, I know exactly what goes on in the Sinclair family. Your mom simply can’t tolerate anyone, and she’s still harping on about Dylan’s mess after all these years. I worry that all this could end up dragging you and Renee into it too. Charles, please, settle the child thing soon–so I can rest easy when my time comes.”

Grandma Flora had spent the last few years taking care of her health, and Charles was always her favorite.

Charles was handsome and knew exactly how to sweet–talk people–no woman could ever resist a guy like

him.

“Grandma, you’ll be around for a long time, so let’s not talk about this. If you really want a grandchild, I’ll get it done–I’ll pick a woman who can give you one in the next three months, all right?” Charles replied calmly.

With those words, it was obvious Yolanda hadn’t even crossed his mind as a possible mother for his child.

Grandma Flora got the message and sighed, waving her hand. “Whoever you choose is fine–so long as the child is yours.”

When Charles stepped out, he spotted Yolanda quietly waiting for him by the stairs, looking as gentle and obedient as ever.

The Sinclair manor was all traditional décor–elegant and classic everywhere you looked. Yolanda’s own graceful presence made her look like she belonged in a place like this.

He walked over, slipped an arm around her waist, and the two of them made their way downstairs together to
