Chapter 14 You May Not Have a Granddaughter-In-Law

Now the meal that she had been looking forward to for a long time seemed more like a sort of humiliation.On the other hand, Elle was flabbergasted as she took in the news that her grandson had just sprung on her. Did he just say that I have a great-grandson? In an instant, she was so overjoyed that she totally forgot about Shirley. She asked anxiously, “You’re not lying to me, are you?
