Grandfather was obviously excited as he stood at the door looking at his granddaughter who looked so much like his daughter. Tears streamed down his face.

“Grandpa, I came back to see you. Why are you crying?”

Layne wiped away his tears and snorted coldly. “You haven’t come back for three years. Every time you do, you never bring good news. Did your husband bully you?”

He continued to rant, “I told you before that your personalities don’t match up. The Lawrence family is worlds apart from the Foley family; a suitable marriage is about matching backgrounds.”

“Your mother was deceived by that bastard George which led to her tragedy.”

Thinking of her daughter made Layne feel sad again. Though his granddaughter Cheyenne was so outstanding, she also outstanding like her mother. It wasn’t fair!

Years ago, Cheyenne was determined to marry Kelvin, even though she knew he didn’t like her. She pursued him relentlessly like a moth to a flame.

They’d been married three years, but he was still very cold to her. Even if it’s just raising a dog, there should be some emotional connection. But in Kelvin’s eyes, she was worth less than a dog.

“Grandpa, you’re overthinking things. It’s not like that. I’m fine; I just miss you,” Cheyenne said with a sweet smile to ease his worries.

“Don’t try to fool me. I knew what nonsense you were spouting even before you opened your mouth,” Grandpa replied bluntly.

“Ahem… Grandpa, you’re an educated man. Watch your language!”

Realizing his mistake, Grandfather nodded apologetically and said, “You’re right; as an educated man, I should watch my image.”

“Okay then! Look what I brought for you – cotton candy! Let’s go inside and sit down; my tired feet are killing me.” With that said, Cheyenne helped Layne into the room with one hand while holding the cotton candy in the other.

The house had a traditional courtyard design but modern appliances and new style decorations inside – simple yet luxurious and elegant at the same time.
