Chapter 135

Veronica righteously defended Xavier.

“Who cares what other people say? From what I can see, Xavier is a good kid.” Elizabeth had seen many people in her life, and it only took her one glance to tell that Xavier was different from the rumors.

“Old Mrs. Kings, you‘re giving me too much credit.” Xavier was not used to the flattery.

“That‘s more like it. I just knew Grandma has a good eye for people.” Veronica grinned.

As she said that, Matthew walked in with Tiffany behind them, only to see Veronica intimately hugging Xavier‘s neck as they chatted, seemingly in a good mood. This damn woman. Does she really like Xavier that much? he thought.

Of course, Tiffany witnessed the scene with him as well. She murmured in a melancholic tone, “They have such a good relationship. I envy them.”

She had deliberately said this to Matthew, but Tiffany knew that he wouldn‘t want to hear it. Hence, she didn‘t wait for his answer and pretended to be “talking to herself” instead, greeting Elizabeth soon after. “Grandma?”

“Tiffany, you‘re here? Now that everyone is here, let‘s wash our hands and eat before the food gets cold.” Elizabeth‘s gaze moved from Veronica to Tiffany as she greeted them, before she said to Xavier, “You could‘ve just come without bringing anything. Don’t waste your money.”

“Roni bought all of these.” Xavier put the gifts aside as he spoke.

Compared with Elizabeth‘s enthusiasm for Xavier and Veronica, Tiffany clearly felt Elizabeth‘s indifference to her. However, even though she was a little upset, she didn‘t show it.

As they sat at the dining table, Veronica smiled in satisfaction upon seeing the hearty dinner. “Grandma, if you prepare so many delicious things, I might gain five pounds after this meal.”
