A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 394

Linda still felt scared when she thought about what had happened.

If her grandfather hadn't saved her from the surging river, then she would have been dead now.

Her grandfather must have paid close attention to her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to save her in time.

She sobbed when she thought of her grandfather's concern for her.

She had a really wonderful time during her stay in the Nalan clan's house. Richard took good care of her, and he loved her very much.

From him, she saw a living example of a caring grandfather. His love was genuine.

Maybe she had been treated this well because of her mother, Richard's youngest daughter. Linda had heard that Richard had loved his youngest daughter deeply.

The death of Sherry was a heavy blow to him. He had refused to contact the Xia clan ever since. He also despised Johnson because he hadn't protected his lovely little girl.

But as time passed by, he was determined to let the past stay in the past. It was no good for him to bury himself in sorrow caused by Sherry's death.

"Grandfather, can I ask my father to visit you? When you're free?"

Linda still hoped the two clans would be reconciled.

After all, there was no need for Richard to hold a grudge against Johnson. Her mother's death had little to do with him.

Even though she felt there were still some secrets, Linda had decided to let it go since May was already in jail.

May had already gotten what she had deserved. Linda was determined to stop the whole thing here so as to leave a good karma for the five-month old baby in her womb.

"No need for that, I think. If the Xia clan treats you badly, you can come back anytime you want. Okay? The Nalan clan's door is always open for you." Richard shook his head. Sherry's death cast a pall over him, and although he decided to let go, he hasn't completely recovered from it, yet.

"Grandfather, please. We are all family. It was all May's fault. Please don't blame my father for it." Linda held and shook Richard's hand, trying to convince him.

Richard cast a glance at her. Her earnest countenance touched him. He was about to change his mind, but his rage overwhelmed him. He was still unhappy about what had happened in the past.

Actually, he was not mad at Johnson because of him not being able to protect Sherry, but the fact that he married May right after Sherry died.

Even though he knew through his investigation that Johnson and May had known each other since childhood, Richard still thought that they shouldn't have done it that fast.

What he didn't know was that Lisa was already two years old at that time, and that was why Johnson had to marry her in such a hurry.

Johnson was a softhearted man, and May was good at using him, so she seized the opportunity.

"All right! It's getting late. You should get going now." Richard failed to counter Linda, so he nodded and agreed with her.

He was getting old now. It was useless to hold on to the past. He had to move on. What Linda said made sense. They were family.

After she reluctantly left the Nalan clan's house, Linda headed for the Xia clan's house. She hadn't come back in such a long time.

Since she was unwilling to tell him, he didn't want to interfere with her private life. He believed that whatever it was, she could handle it.

"I'm good. Father, don't worry about me." Her nose twitched, and tears rolled down her face.

"There, there. Let's come in. I've asked the cook to make your favourite dishes."

Johnson was on cloud nine when he saw Linda's tummy. The five-month old baby in her womb was big enough to bulge her belly a bit.

Back when he had read the news that Charles abandoned her after her miscarriage, he was very surprised. From Linda's tummy, the news seemed to have been fake. But he knew that the news couldn't have been cooked up from nowhere.

Something must have happened.

But that didn't matter. He was happy to see that Linda was healthy, active, and even plump due to her pregnancy.

"Okay. Bun, fetch the luggages. We are going in." Linda turned her head back and told Bun, who was behind her.

"Okay, My Lady." Bun nodded and smiled back. Then, she walked towards the trunk.

All of sudden, some black cars stopped at the gate of the Xia clan. From the plate numbers, Linda could tell that those cars were from the military.

What was going on here? Why were there cars from the military?
