Chapter 235 

Elise immediately took Robin’s arm. “Now, now, Grandpa, doesn’t it make you happy that I’m back?”

“Oh, it does! I’m happy!”

Laura pulled a rocking chair over and gestured Elise toward it, urging, “Stop standing there chatting, you two. Elise, come here and have a seat. I heard you’ve finished your college entrance exam. What are you planning to do next?”

At the sight of the rocking chair, Elise couldn’t help putting on a beautiful smile. She quickly sat in the chair and stared up at the familiar sky above her. “It’s been a while since I last sat in this chair and chatted with you two…”

Laura smiled and then asked the servants to bring Elise’s favorite fruit platter over. As the three chatted about their daily lives, Robin asked, “…Don’t tell me you’ll be going to college again, Elise. Didn’t you graduate from college abroad a long time ago?”

Elise replied with a smile, “Well, I think it’s pretty nice to go to college, actually. At least I wouldn’t have to be in a hurry to inherit the family business.” In reality, the Sinclairs and the Griffiths were evenly matched, as the former’s family business was no less successful than the latter’s.

Laura replied, “Oh, you silly girl! Your grandpa and I are in no hurry to let you take over the family business. Besides, we’ve got professional managers to take care of it at present, so we’re not worried about that. Still, ever since your parents passed away, your grandpa and I have been wishing more than anything else to see you get married and settle down. Now that you’re engaged to Alexander, I’m wishing that you two would get married sooner and give us a great-grandson to play with…”

Speechless, Elise couldn’t help but wipe the sweat off her forehead. “I’m only 18, Grandma…”
