Chapter 2293

Alyssa immediately understood the real thorn in Ivy’s heart. It wasn’t that she minded Mara still living there. She was upset that Balfour hadn’t informed her in advance, completely omitting her from his considerations.

And after all the years of acquaintance between Balfour and Mara, Ivy doubted herself, her confidence in their relationship shaken.

“I get what you’re saying, sweetie, but Balfour not telling you, that’s on me,” Alyssa said, her voice tinged with regret. “Let me apologize for that, okay? As for him and Mara, to be honest, they do have a bit of history. There was an incident a while back, and if it weren’t for Ms. Lewis’s sister, Balfour might not be standing here with us today, hale and hearty. That’s why he’s always looked out for Ms. Lewis. Before her sister passed, she asked Balfour to take good care of Mara. I won’t lie to you and say there’s nothing between them, but here’s something I want you to consider-if there was really something going on between those two, why would they have waited for you to come along?”

Alyssa knew her grandson, Balfour, well; he wasn’t the type to shrink back from taking action.
