When he found out she hadn’t eaten yet, Caden dropped his chopsticks in a flash and headed to the
cafeteria to grab her some grub.
Arabella wanted to tell him not to bother, planning to grab a bite herself at the company cafeteria after
visiting Granny Grace and checking out what’s been cooking there lately.
But Caden, worried she might be starving, dashed off to grab her food.
Walking into the hospital room, Arabella spotted a thin bracelet in Granny Grace’s hand right away.
It was something she’d gotten for Granny Grace with her first paycheck.
Every time she woke up, she’d hunt for it, clutching it tightly once she found it.
Arabella sat down by the bed, gently taking the bracelet from her hand. To her surprise, the old lady on
the bed seemed to sense it and slowly opened her eyes. “Bella, is that you?” Grace Murphy, with her
snow–white hair and kind eyes, looked at Arabella, her voice weak but excited. “You’re finally here.”
“Granny.”
The moment Arabella spoke, the old woman started tearing up. “After sleeping for so many days, I
finally get to hear my granddaughter’s voice.”
“Your body hasn’t recovered yet; don’t get too worked up. Arabella wiped away her tears, adjusted the
bed a bit higher, and then poured her a cup of water. “Drink
some water first.”
“Okay.” Grace took the water offered by Arabella, obediently drank it all, and then held the girl’s soft
hand and asked, “Did Olga and her gang give you a hard time?” Arabella gave a small smile and
asked, “No.”
“A few days ago, when I woke up, I heard her say she was sending you back to your biological family.”
Just thinking about it, Grace was fuming, almost out of breath.
Arabella quickly rubbed her back to soothe her, saying, “Granny, don’t be upset. My biological parents
are quite nice to me.”
“Really?”
“Really.” Arabella smiled gently. “Do I look in any way like I’ve been mistreated?”
Grace’s life experience told her the clothes on Arabella were all high–end, although she couldn’t make
out any brand. But the quality and the design are all top–notch. Even the pretty crown necklace she
was wearing around her neck.
She was a bit surprised; the necklace looked strangely familiar, as if she’d seen it somewhere.
But after racking her brain and coming up empty, she let it slide.
Not to mention the beautiful butterfly bracelet on Arabella’s wrist, made from high–quality diamonds.
Her biological family must be well–off!
The thought of this smart and adorable girl not being her real granddaughter made Grace’s heart ache.
And that heartless Olga, driving such a wonderful child away without a second thought to family ties!
“Granny, if you get this worked up every time you see me, I might be too scared to come again.”
Hearing Arabella’s teasing, Grace laughed, quickly wiping away her tears. “Don’t be like that. Come
visit me whenever you have time. Otherwise, I’ll miss you and! won’t know where to find you.”
Arabella chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll come visit whenever I can.”
“Even though you’re not my biological granddaughter, I’ve always treated you like one over the years,
and I’m even looking forward to your wedding!” Arabella smiled and said, “You might have to wait a bit
for that.” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
“I don’t mind waiting, as long as you find someone who truly loves you, then I can live out my days
worry–free!” Grace patted her hand gently and said, “If your biological family ever mistreats you, don’t
hide it. Once I recover, you can come back to this home! I’ll buy a new house, just the two of us; no
need to live with
them.”
Arabella knew that she would never return to the Murphy family again in her lifetime, but she still gently
said, “I’ll spend more time with you.”
