Chapter 7 

Molly ran straight to Grandpa Dave’s room as soon as she got in.

Grandpa Dave’s room was on the second floor.

When she pushed his door open, the old man was having a shut-eye on his rocking chair.

Even though it had been years since they met each other, even if they had only spent a mere six months together, Molly still felt a strong sense of closeness with him.

When she was overseas for these five years, this old man was the one who had been giving her care and affection! Molly sneaked in and walked toward Grandpa Dave as she called out to him softly, "Grandpa, I came back to see you."

Grandpa Dave immediately opened his eyes when he heard her.

His face was covered with smiles as he sat upright, looking at his real granddaughter standing right in front of him.

"Oh dear, you are finally back, Molly! Come closer to me so I can have a look at you…"

Molly nodded obediently and leaned in.

Grandpa Dave looked at her from her head to her toes and said with a smile, "Not bad, you’ve gotten even prettier! I was right – my granddaughter is a diamond in the rough.You are only tan and skinny because you’ve been living a hard life in the countryside! How would my granddaughter be ugly?! That Herring kid sure has a bad eye!"

Molly almost teared up as she listened to Grandpa Dave praising her.

Even her biological parents found her embarrassing.

Her grandpa was the only one who thought that she was the best! Molly fought back her tears and responded with a smile, "I’ve been obeying you these years, grandpa.I’m living a good life, and I’m learning well.That’s why I’ve become a better me and came back to see you."

"That’s good…"

Grandpa Dave patted Molly’s hand lovingly.

"My granddaughter has made it.You are even an honorable practitioner in alternative medicine!"

Molly found Grandpa Dave’s prideful expression hilarious, and her heart had melted like wax.

Suddenly, Grandpa Dave changed his tone and scoffed, "Let your blind parents see how good you are! They don’t care about their own daughter, yet they’re treating someone else’s daughter like a treasure.Outrageous!"
