Love Knows No Bounds

Chapter 432

At Coleman Residence.

Tia walked into the house with a large envelope in hand and proceeded to the living room, where Tilly was sitting on the couch chatting with an old friend.

"Old Madam Coleman, the head of security said someone came to give you this envelope. They've screened it and confirmed that there's nothing dangerous inside."

Tilly took the envelope and started to open it as she said to her friend, Mary, "I bet these are photos from someone who's trying to stir something up by using one of my vexing grandsons again."

Mary chuckled and said, "Well, it can't be helped that all of your grandsons are capable and distinguished young men. I get envious, too, when I see them."

All the young women wished they could marry the Colemans. That was the reason why Kendall became the target of everyone's jealousy and resentment.

"Your grandchildren are just as accomplished, too."

Jane was seated beside Tilly, and Tilly reached out for her hand as she continued, "You have one right here. Jane's such a fine young granddaughter. It'd be hard to find one as wonderful as her anywhere else."

"Grandma, are you saying I'm not good enough for you?"

Alice pretended to pout out of jealousy. "You keep praising Jane all the time, Grandma. You don't pay any attention to me when she's around."

"Why don't we switch?" Mary suggested jokingly. "You can have Jane, and Alice can follow me back to be my granddaughter."

"That won't do at all, Mrs. Morris!"

Yoseph, who had been listening in on their conversation, butted in before Tilly could respond. "Ally is the only younger sister I have. You can't switch her out for someone else."

Tilly glanced at Yoseph and asked pointedly, "Is that all you meant?"

Yoseph stole a peek at Jane and refused to admit to anything else. "Grandma, what else would I have meant? Ally is my only younger sister. We're related by blood. Why would I want to switch her out for one that's not related to me in any way?"

He walked over and patted Jane on the arm. She flicked his hand off.


"What are you doing?"

"Change seats with me. I want to sit beside Grandma so that you can't poison her mind with the idea of taking you in as her granddaughter."

Jane hugged one of Tilly's arms and responded airily, "I refuse. I'm going to stay beside her and continue to poison her mind with the idea of taking me in as her granddaughter. That way, Alice and I can become sisters."

All at once, Yoseph picked her up and carried her over to the single-seater couch.

Jane was speechless. "Yoseph Coleman! You're asking for it! How dare you carry me over like I'm a puppy."

She leaped off the couch and started to stomp over.

"Jane!" Mary called out.

Jane reluctantly sat down beside Alice, but she threw Yoseph a murderous glare that said, Just you wait. I'll deal with you some other time.

Tilly smacked Yoseph on the arm. Although she was getting old, she was still as healthy as a horse and had hit hard enough that Yoseph yelped in pain.

"Yoseph, how can you treat a young lady like that? And not only is Jane a young lady, but she's also our guest. I'm not surprised to see that you're still single if this is the way you treat the ladies. You deserve to be a lonely old bachelor!" Tilly lectured.

Jane giggled. "Old Madam Coleman, you should hit him a few more times for my sake. He's so annoying."

"Yes, my dear. I'll take it out on him on your behalf," Tilly agreed fondly.

She started whacking Yoseph a few more times until he howled in pain. It was Mary who finally took pity on her future grandson-in-law and saved him. Alice and Jane had laughed until their tummies hurt.

At last, after teaching Yoseph a lesson, Tilly took the photos out of the envelope. Her expression changed as soon as she saw what was pictured.

"What's the matter, Grandma? Whose photos are they?" Alice asked in concern when she noticed the unusual expression on Tilly's face. She reached out to take the photos.

"It's nothing."

Tilly quickly stuffed the photos back into the envelope. She regained her composure as she said coolly, "You don't need to look at them. They're not something young girls should see."

She didn't let go of the envelope even after returning the photos to it.

Alice and Jane exchanged looks.

I'm 23! It's been years since I became an adult, so why is Grandma saying that it's something I shouldn't see? Something's up for sure!

However, Alice couldn't do anything about it if Tilly insisted on keeping the photos from her.

She gave Yoseph a look that seemed to ask, Can you guess who's the subject of those photos?

Yoseph was just as curious. He quietly shook his head. He had no idea what it was about, and he wanted to express that it couldn't possibly be related to him as he didn't do anything he shouldn't have. He had never been a person who allowed others to use him in that way.

Tilly continued chatting with the rest, all the while clutching the envelope. Even when it was time for her to rest, she didn't let go of it. This made everyone incredibly curious as to who the photos were related to.

Once Tilly returned to her room and locked the door, she walked over to the couch and slammed the envelope on the table.

"Kendall Parker!"

Tilly was furious!
