Chapter 2510

By the time they’d made the rounds of the gathering, Alyssa was visibly tired, so Ivy escorted her back to the room for some rest.

“Grandma, you really outdid yourself today. My little concerns can surely wait,” Ivy said, her voice soft with concern.

Alyssa was indeed exhausted, and it showed. Yet, upon hearing Ivy’s words, she patted Ivy’s hand gently and replied, “I know you’re considerate, dear, not wanting to worry Dean and me. But I must tell you something. This world we’re in is all about what you bring to the table. People come for what they can gain, and they’ll leave just as quickly when the benefits dry up. While Dean and I still have some clout, we need to lay the groundwork for you and your future.”

Ivy’s heart tightened at the melancholy in Alyssa’s voice, calling out softly, “Grandma…”

Now that they were in a position to help, they certainly didn’t want Ivy to face the same disheartening struggles they had endured in their youth.
