Chapter 9

Rachel Grey glanced at David Jones in surprise.

“Do you mind coming with us to say hi to my grandma?” David glanced at Rachel with smiling eyes.

Rachel glanced at the elderly lady standing by the side, gazing at her, keen for an answer. She hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

She couldn’t control the excitement in her heart.

Old Mrs. Jones couldn’t hide the delight in her heart when she heard Rachel greeting her. She held Rachel’s hands adoringly and caressed them. “I’m fine, child. You’re such a good girl. I like you very much.”
