Capturing the Millionaire’s Heart on Divorce Day novel Chapter 251

Brother Jia wouldn't literally hoist Jessica up as Ethan had jested. Instead, he approached the door of Jessica's bedroom, tapping gently, "Miss Jiang, Mr. Grant would like to see you."

Jessica was not in the mood for an early rise, and upon hearing the knock, she just buried herself deeper under the covers without a word.

But Brother Jia was the epitome of patience, repeatedly knocking without a change in his calm demeanor, "Miss Jiang, Mr. Grant would like to see you."

It was like a relentless chant, and Jessica's irritation finally peaked, tossing the covers aside and opening the door in a huff.

Brother Jia, expecting this, stepped back with a smile, gesturing for her to follow, "Miss Jiang, if you'd please come downstairs."

Jessica, glaring, said, "Aren't you aware that waking someone from a dream is rather loathsome?"

"I am aware," Brother Jia replied serenely. "But I must carry out the boss's orders. Please bear with me, Miss Jiang."

Jessica wasn't truly irked with Brother Jia, her annoyance stemmed from being woken up. With an impassive face, she marched down to the dining room, sat heavily across from Ethan, and demanded, arms folded, "What's so urgent that you had to disturb my sleep?"

"It's New Year's Eve; let's start the day with a visit to the cemetery," Ethan said.

Surprisingly, Jessica's mood lightened as if a switch had been flipped, and she agreed with no further complaints, "Fine, fine, I'll get ready quickly."

Madison was internally taken aback at Jessica's swift change of heart.

"Would you join us for the visit?" Ethan asked her.

Madison nodded earnestly, "Of course."

An hour later, Jessica, now dressed and having had breakfast, carefully selected a beautiful bouquet of flowers before joining Ethan in the car.

Today, they were to pay respects to Ethan's mother, whom Jessica held in the highest regard as if she were her own mother. The magnanimity and kindness it took for a woman to raise the child of her husband's mistress were not lost on Jessica.

The Mukino Cemetery, known for its serene beauty in Slandon Harbor, was lush with greenery and tasteful decor, avoiding any overly grim atmosphere.

It was divided into two sections: one bustling with pets that roamed freely, while the other was more tranquil, catering to those who preferred either setting in life.

Ethan had chosen the livelier side for his mother's final resting place.

Upon arrival, Madison's gaze was drawn to the gravestone, where the woman in the photo radiated kindness and grace.

Ethan introduced, "Mom, I've brought my fiancée to meet you. She's a pilot, too. I know you'd like her."

Advancing, Madison greeted with a nervous respect, "Hello, Auntie, I'm Madison."

The solemnity of meeting one's in-laws this way didn't escape her, and after a pause, she placed her bouquet down, promising earnestly, "I'll take good care of Ethan and our future together, you can rest assured."

Ethan was touched, not expecting such a heartfelt vow.

He hadn't wanted Madison to worry about taking care of him; he wanted to ease her burdens, not add to them. Holding her hand gently, he reassured, "My mom would be happy now."

At that moment, Jessica joined, wiping the gravestone's photo, "Mom, I'm here. You always worried about my reckless nature, but look, I've got my brother and a strong sister-in-law. I'm learning so much from her, and nobody dares to bully me. Rest easy, okay?"

Turning red at the mention of family, Madison heard Ethan whisper, "Do you want kids?"
