S31 64. New Year Wishes

Jeremy’s eyes widened at the whisper. After a faint nod, he said, ” Okay. I’ll contact Mr. Morris.”

Then, Jeremy walked away from the gazebo. Pulling out his phone, he looked around, pretending to wait for the ringtone. At that moment, he caught a shadow moving away from the trees. The scout must have picked up on Frank’s suspicions.

“So, is Grandma willing to accept gold from Grandpa?” Frank asked when Jeremy returned. The will had been read.

Diana smiled wryly. After looking at the faces around her one by one, she sighed in resignation. “Okay, I accept it.”

The old women giggled. When else would they wear children’s conical hats if not for Louis and Emily? And soon, they would blow the
