When he found out that his grandmother wanted him to marry her, he realized that she was a woman with an agenda.

Aurelia stood up. “Alright, I’ve just picked some grapes and strawberries.”

“Did you pick these yourself?” Mabel asked with a smile.

Upon learning from Evelyn that Matthew, who had always suffered from some sleep disorders, had fallen asleep under Aurelia’s massage, Mable felt that Matthew would soon come to appreciate Aurelia.

Aurelia treated people with sincerity. More than a decade ago, when she was just a little girl,
