Someone opened the door, the voices of the maid and Mrs.Leslie could be heard. They were talking to each other and Mrs.Leslie was in a good mood and talked happily.

This was a matter between her and Armand, she didn’t need Mrs.Leslie to know, she was too old to even think about dealing with something like this.

Not for the sake of Armand, just because that Mrs.Leslie treated her very well.

She pulled open the door of her room, the maid was hanging the laundry for Mrs.Leslie.

"I don’t know that you're home." When the old woman saw Theresa, she was a bit astonished, then, she grinned, "Come, sit down, I have something great to share with you."

Theresa faithfully sat down on the couch, and the old woman grasped her hand excitedly.

"What great thing makes grandmother so happy?" Theresa concealed her feelings well, without letting Mrs.Leslie realized it at all.

Despite the fact that she had not spent a long time with Mrs.Leslie, her thoughtfulness, and friendliness had effectively melted her.

Regardless of how she and Armand were, she couldn’t hurt Mrs.Leslie.

"I met a face reader today, he said that my face is ruddy and I would be blessed with good fortune which means something great is occurring." Mrs.Leslie actually believed in face reading.

Most elderly folks believed in face reading.

People from the previous generation were more superstitious.

Theresa couldn’t help but giggle, "Do you just believe what he said?"

The old woman's eyes widened, "Let me tell you, I didn't tell him that I had a grandson, however by reading my face, he could tell that I had a grandson who got married and said that one year from now I would get a great-grandson, could I not trust it?"

The housekeeper interrupted, "Mrs.Leslie was so glad that she gave him a red packet with a considerable amount of money."

The grin on Theresa’s face gradually faded away.

Mrs.Leslie held Theresa’s hand tighter and came closer, "Theresa, about this, I’m counting on you."

As she said, her eyes fell on her tummy, “Maybe my great-grandson has already been in your womb.”
