Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 227

Yakira and Lindo had come here on an impromptu basis. After

discussing with Zain and talking to Valentin and Joseph, they got up and were ready to leave.

Zain would have liked to keep them for dinner, but Lindo had other commitments and couldn’t stay.

Zain didn’t insist, as they were all acquaintances and could have dinner together anytime, and sent them away with a smile.

Turning back to the living room and seeing Ashley, Zain was happy and intimate. “Ashley, I haven’t visited you in a while. How are you doing? Are you okay?”

Ashley smiled sweetly, her eyes curved into a crescent moon, bright and moving. “Grandpa, it should be me coming over to see you more often. I’ve been doing well lately and even gained weight!”

“No, Ashley. Why do I think you have lost weight again?” Zain felt Ashley was skinny and quickly said, “Come on, the dinner is ready. Let’s sit down. and eat first!”

“Grandpa, did you forget about me? You don’t care about me at all!” Joseph interjected, accusing Zain of being biased. “I’m definitely not your biological grandson!”

“You brat. You’re so tall. It’s hard for me to ignore you!” Zain narrowed his eyes and looked Joseph up and down. “Joseph, why are you only getting taller and not growing your brain?”

Joseph was instantly sad and turned to Valentin. “Valentin, did you hear that? Grandpa said I haven’t grown my brain. How could he say that about his grandson?”

Valentin gave him a sidelong glance and said slowly, “Grandpa is right.”

Joseph was lost for words.

He thought, I’m at the bottom of the food chain in this family? I can’t live with this!’

But the next moment, seeing the fragrant pan-fried beef steak with black oper on the table, Joseph ran over excitedly. “Wow! Grandpa, I know
