Chapter 240 Bringing Veronica and Conrad Together

“Yeah, I miss you, Grandma.” Veronica smiled and clung onto the old lady’s arm before looking at the poultry. “It’s nice to rear some chickens and ducks as a pastime.”

Elizabeth couldn’t work because of her old age, so it was best for her to indulge in something to lift her mood.

“You’re right. I gotta at least do something to kill time.” Elizabeth pulled Veronica in the direction of the parlor. “Let’s go inside. It’s windy.”

Matthew, who had been there the whole time, received no attention and trailed behind them with a helpless smile.

“Grandma, you previously said… said…” Veronica sat next to Elizabeth, hesitating to bring up the topic.

Elizabeth patted the back of the girl’s hand. “Don’t be such a stranger. Go ahead.”
