Chapter 613

Frowning, Matthew put down his cutlery. "Did Jennifer come here to cause trouble, Mom?"

Lillian sighed. "I know she has some bad qualities, like being obsessed with money and really harsh. When she asked if she could borrow money, I really didn't want to lend it to her. But then she brought up about being Lorraine's grandmother, I ended up lending her some money."

Matthew was frustrated, but he had to keep his cool around Lillian. He replied in resignation, "Look at how she treats Lorraine, Mom. For Lorraine's sake, you can't lend her money. I don't want us to be involved with them anymore. If she shows up again, don't even bother with her."

Lillian nodded. "I regretted it the moment I lent her money, so I'm never doing that again. Are you and Rachel having issues in your relationship, Matthew? You haven't talked about her lately, and she hasn't come by to see Lorraine in quite a while."

Next to them, Lorraine chimed in. "I haven't seen Rachel in a long time, Dad. I really miss her. Can you pick me up from school with her tomorrow?"

Matthew furrowed his brows. "I'll try talking to her. Hopefully, she isn't busy."

The next day, Matthew carried Lorraine as he walked toward the school gate.
