I was upset over the previous incident, but Michael’s family was involved; hence, I knew I would have to forgive them. Otherwise, I would seem like a petty woman who refused to let the matter slip.

In the living room, everyone was waiting. Josephine accepted a piece of fruit from the housekeeper and bit into it. When she spotted Michael and me, she shot me a frosty look and said nothing.

Previously, she did a one-eighty after finding out that I was pregnant with a baby boy. Right now, she had returned to her usual aloof self. I was displeased by the change in her attitude.

Nonetheless, it was a blessing in disguise. I’d rather have her treating me this way every day instead of treating me kindly for the sake of my child.

Michael’s grandfather, Andy, was reading the papers on the couch. I went over to greet him politely. “Hello, Grandpa.”

Andy lifted his head and nodded. “You’re back.”

“Yes. I’m sorry, Grandpa.”

I knew what Andy meant and immediately offered a shy apology.

“There’s no need to apologize, young lady. It’s normal for a young couple to fight; moreover, I’m not that traditional,” Andy said with a smile.

He didn’t seem to mind what happened.

In the Shaw family, Andy was the only one who treated me kindly, and I was thankful for that. Hearing his words, I felt warmth spreading all over my heart.

“Dad, you’re too generous. If you don’t interfere in their matter, others will talk behind our back. They’ll say Mrs. Shaw left home, for there is discord in the Shaw family!” Josephine declared.
