Chapter 911
"Since you're awake, let's go inside. Don't keep Grandpa waiting." Bonnie exited the car and waited for Ivor.
He smiled faintly and got out, saying, "Honey, did you let me sleep because you were worried I was too tired?"
"Come on, let's go inside," Bonnie replied, not wanting to engage in that topic. She knew they would never go in if they kept talking.
Ivor shook his head and walked over. He took her hand and headed toward the old house. "All right, let's go."
Then, he looked back and told Floyd, "Bring the items from the trunk."
"Right away, Mr. Ivor." Floyd did as his boss said and chased after the couple.
When the couple entered, they saw Sigmund eagerly waiting at the door. When he saw his grandson and Bonnie, she smiled warmly and said, "You're finally here! I've been waiting for a while now."
Bonnie replied with a hint of exasperation, "You could have waited for us while sitting down, Grandpa. Since we promised to come, we'd show up."
Sigmund laughed heartily, "Hahaha! It doesn't matter. I was worried you'd be too busy to come, so I waited here. Seeing you brightens my day." His infectious smile caused Bonnie to smile, too. She said, "Let's go inside. There's no need to stand around here."
"Of course," Sigmund replied, beaming as he followed Bonnie.
Ivor trailed behind and teased, "Grandpa, it seems you no longer need your grandson now that you'll soon have a granddaughter-in-law."
Sigmund turned and responded
firmly, "Of course I don't. What's the point of a grandson when I have a granddaughter-in-law? After all, you're disobedient and cause trouble."
Ivor was at a loss for words at that moment. After a brief pause, he said, "That's not fair, Grandpa."
Bonnie chuckled and took Sigmund's side, saying, "Your grandfather has a point, y'know. Don't worry. I'll take good care of you, Grandpa. We don't need Ivor, do we?" Sigmund quickly responded, "Perfect! You can take care of me from now on, and I'll discard my grandson."
Bonnie giggled. "You got it."
Ivor could only smile and listen to the duo banter. He was happy to see his fiancee and grandfather getting along so well. Ivor did not mind being the bud of their jokes as long as it made them happy. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
When the trio entered the dining room, Bonnie noticed the empty seats. Curious, she said, "Grandpa, I thought this was supposed to be a family dinner. Why is no one else around? Is it just three of us?"
"The three of us are a family, aren't we?" Sigmund said, "Too many people cause too much noise. I know you don't like idle chatter, so I didn't invite everyone else."
