Obsessive CEO’s Sinful Wife by Lil’ Bamboo

Chapter 118
Just then, she could hear her grandfather’s goading voice through the phone saying, “Why haven’t you told Serenity to rush over to the police station and tell them to release her uncles and the rest?!”
“Release them? Why should they be released?! They committed the crimes themselves, so they should be locked away for as long as they deserve!
“Have you forgotten that they’re your children?! How could you take the side of someone with a different surname?!
“What do you mean ‘someone with a different sumame?! She’s my granddaughter! Since her mother’s gone, it’s my job as her grandmother to support her!”
“Aren’t you worried that no one will take care of you when you get old and frail if you act this way? Or are you that granddaughter of yours who’s been in prison before to take care of you?!”
I counting on
The old couple continued to argue, almost as if they had forgotten that the call was still ongoing. After a long while, Serenity’s grandmother finally remembered that she was still on the phone, so she asked, “Serenity, are you still there?”
“I’m still here.”

“I’m just glad that you’re okay, Serenity. As for your uncles, aunt, and cousins, they must’ve been blinded by money to have done such a wicked thing! You don’t need to think about withdrawing the case. Just let them be locked up for as long as they deserve!”
After u
uttering those words in a firm voice, her grandmother then hung up the phone.
Serenity held her phone close to her chest as she wept uncontrollably. She thought her grandmother had tried to call her to tell her to forget about the whole incident, to ask her not to pursue the matter and let the police release her relatives, but it turned out that she actually wanted to support her!
This reminded her of what had happened when she was still a child, back when her father had tossed her to her grandmother She had been bullied by the other kids in the small town and was crying because of it when her grandma had taken her hand and asked her to take her to the bullies.
She had told her, “Don’t cry, Serenity. Grandma’s here, and I’ll help you. We will never bully anyone, but we won’t let others bully us either!”
Her grandmother would take her to the bullies and talk to them, but if talking did not settle anything, she would roll up her sleeves and take matters into her own hands. She might have been a brash woman, but Grandma was always the most adorable and admirable person in Serenity’s eyes. To others, Serenity was just an orphan whose mother had died and whose father had remarried, after which she had become an unwanted child.
Nevertheless, in Grandma’s eyes, Serenity was her precious baby.
Grandma would often say, “Once our girl grows up, I’ll be riding on her coattails and live happily ever after!”
w up, just as she thought she could finally give Grandma a happier and better life, she had been thrown into
But when she grew
prison.
Back then, when Grandma had gotten the news of the verdict, she had fallen so ill that she had been bedridden for a long time. She had only finally regained some of her health last year.
Grandma must have known that if she took Serenity’s side, she would put herself on the opposing side of her grandfather and fall out with the rest of the family. In fact, it might be fficult for Grandina to stay in that house from now on, yet despite all that, Grandma still chose to stand on Serenity’s side.
