Chapter 240 Bringing Veronica and Conrad Together

Holding a basket of fruits, Veronica ambled toward Elizabeth. “Grandma.”

Elizabeth handed over the grain that she fed the poultry to the maid. “Roni, you’re here.”

Elizabeth couldn’t work because of her old age, so it was best for her to indulge in something to lift her mood.
