Sweet Revenge

Chapter 225

Chapter 225 She Still Belongs to the Austin Family 
Seeing his receding figure, Silvia opened the car door and got out of the car. Then, she saw Zain.
It seemed that Zain was waiting for Silvia because his gaze was fixed on her.
Only then did Silvia realize that something was wrong. She had already shown up. The servant had also sent a message. It was impossible for the family not to know that she had come. Why was there not even a servant when she got out of the car?
So was this deliberately arranged by Zain to avoid causing too much commotion?
Since Silvia was already back, there was no need for her to hide. She straightened up and walked straight towards Zain.
“You are finally back,” Zain said as he looked at his cousin standing in front of him.
“I said that I would come back.” Silvia’s implication was that since she had agreed, she would not go back on her
word.
Zain nodded slightly and said, “Grandfather is already waiting for you.”
With Zain around, it would be better because he would save a lot of unnecessary trouble. This journey would definitely clear out all the other people.
“Oh right, thank you for the information you gave me last time.” Thinking of the things he had specially given her last time, Silvia felt that it was necessary to thank Zain.
“What are you thanking me for? You don’t need it anyway,” Zain said without turning his head.
The things were given to Silvia, but in the end, she still kept them and did not expose everything.
From the first time Zain came to look for Silvia, Silvia knew that the Austin family seemed not to care about her on the surface, but in fact, almost all of them knew about her. Otherwise, Zain would not have been so clear about her situation and even collected such private information about Ladarius for her.
“Anyway, I still have to thank you.”
They entered from the small building on the side, walked to the rear door, and passed through a long corridor before arriving at the building behind.
The front part of the house was basically for entertaining guests. The back part was the place where the Austin family lived. It would not allow people to enter and exit casually. Therefore, when they arrived at the back house, they would feel particularly quiet.
“Since you have already exposed so much evidence, why don’t you just expose this?” As Zain walked, he said, “Do you still have personal feelings?”
Silvia shook her head. “We should allow for unpredictable circumstances and needs. Didn’t you learn this from a young age? Have you forgotten?”
Of course, it was impossible for Zain to forget. Silvia was just teasing him. He stopped in his tracks, and there was a trace of a smile on his lips. “So you still remember.”
Silvia was stumped.
She remembered every word. How could she not remember it?
It was almost bone-deep. Even if she wanted to forget, she could not forget it.
After entering the building at the back, Silvia’habitually wanted to go upstairs, but she saw Zain walking straight

ahead, turning a corner, in the direction of the room on the first floor.
Silvia was stunned for a moment before following closely behind, “Grandpa changed his bedroom?”
“He’s old, so it’s inconvenient for him to climb stairs. It’s more convenient to live on the first floor.” After a pause, Zain turned to look at Silvia. “You really haven’t been back for too long.”
It had been too long, so Silvia didn’t even know about it.
Silvia fell silent. Zain added, “Grandpa is old and has some small problems with his body. You’d better…
Zain paused but did not say anything. He walked to the door and knocked lightly. “Grandpa, it’s me.”
There was a slight cough in the room, followed by a somewhat old but still loud voice, “Come in.”
Silvia originally thought that she could face it calmly, but when she was about to step through the door, she could not help but feel nervous.
The room was very big. There was a carpet on the ground, making the whole house seem particularly quiet. The old man sat by the window and watched the snowflakes fall from the window. His gaze was distant. Such a painting was particularly tranquil.
But…
Silvia’s eyes fell on the chair under the old man. It was not an ordinary chair, but a wheelchair.
Even though it looked very tough and advanced, it was indeed a wheelchair.
“Grandfather?” Silvia called out, her voice trembling.
What … happened to him?
“You’re back!” The old man didn’t take back his gaze and responded to Silvia.
Silvia quickly took a few steps forward but stopped in front of him. She wanted to go forward again, but she was a little afraid.
It was only then that the old man turned his wheelchair around and looked at Silvia directly. He still looked the same as Silvia remembered, but he looked much older. His hair had turned white and his wrinkles had increased. However, his gaze was not as sharp as before. It seemed to be a little more peaceful and kinder.
Was it because Silvia had been away for too long that she had unconsciously felt that her grandfather had become gentler? At that moment, Silvia suddenly felt that her grandfather wasn’t such a nuisance.
“You’ve grown up!” the old man sized Silvia up and said.
There was a sense of gratification and sensation in Marc’s tone. The little girl who was not even as tall as his waist was now so tall. Marc could only sit and look up at Silvia.
This was growth passed down through generations.
Marc’s eyes were a little tearful. Silvia took a few more steps forward, squatted down in front of him, and looked at his legs.
At the very least, his legs are still intact, but the wheelchair…
“Grandpa, your legs…” Silvia looked up and asked doubtfully.
“Grandpa’s leg got a stroke. When it gets serious, he can’t stand up and walk. When it is not serious, he can stand occasionally.” Zain, who was standing behind her, opened his mouth and said, “It’s been a few years.”
Silvia was shocked.
Therefore, no one had ever told her that her family knew everything that had happened to her over the years. However, she really did not know anything about her family.
The so-called breakup, the so-called departure, was only her one-sided belief. In the end, she was still the child of the Austin family.
Silvia gently placed her hand on Marc’s knee. The latter did not berate her. Only then did Silvia relax. “Can’t it be
cured?”
“The root of pain can’t be cured. It’s fine when it doesn’t cause any problems. When it does, it…”
“Alright, it’s not a big deal. I’m old, and I always have such small problems. What’s this?” Perhaps it was because Zain had said too much and interrupted him. The old man was a little impatient.
After Marc said this, Zain stopped explaining and stood there quietly.
“I heard that you received a prize recently, didn’t you?” the old man lowered his head and asked. Silvia replied, “Yes, a prize for the perfume appraisal competition, which isn’t a big deal.”
At the very least, it was still a distance away from her goal.
Marc revealed a faint smile, but in the blink of an eye, he said, “I’m surprised that you can continue. Good, very good.”
Seeing that her hand was still on his knees, Marc covered her hand. “Stand up!”
Being suddenly stroked by him, Silvia was stunned and looked up at Marc. Then, she was almost pulled up by Marc.
Silvia regained her balance and her gaze involuntarily fell on Marc’s knees. Marc remained cool, but it must be very painful, right?
