Grandpa John wasn't happy, "She's fine in the country. What's she doing here? This stubborn woman now needs our money!"
When Halbert and Addy divorced, Grandma Eva insisted on staying with her daughter-in-law. She said that she didn't need the money of the Carter family. And she wouldn't live with them.
However, she changed her mind. Grandpa John looked down on such broken promises.
"Dad, Mom probably missed us." Cathy tried to persuade Grandpa John.
"That's impossible! The family all went to visit her during the Spring Festival! If she comes, we would suffer a lot." Grandpa John was clear about that. He knew his wife.
Cathy didn't know what to say. No one seemed to like Grandma Eva.
But her return was inevitable.
Apart from Grandpa John, every one of the family was standing at the door to welcome Grandma Eva.
The black Bentley eased into the yard. Halbert got off the car first, then he helped Grandma Eva out.
Jacob and William supported Grandma Eva. Richard was not here. As for Amy and Hilary, they just stood where they were.
Grandma Eva had white hair but was hale and hearty. She did not have many wrinkles and took great care of herself.
But she was not that kind of old people. Her gaze was sharp. When she passed Amy and Hilary, she looked at them with disgust.
"William and Jacob are still so caring. Unlike some people, they are now too proud to be polite!" When everyone was seated, Grandma Eva said suddenly.
William, Jacob and Sophia were pleased to hear this, but Cathy was not.
"Mom, you only have two arms. You don't need that much people to help you."
Grandma Eva glared at Cathy. She now knew why Amy was so indifferent to her. It was because of Cathy! What a mother-in-law!
"So many excuses." Grandma Eva said.
Cathy wanted to explain, but Halbert signed her.
"She has just recovered. Just stop." Halbert said softly.
Grandma Eva came, and it was fortunate that she did not bring Addy over. Cathy felt a little better.
"Where is that old jerk? Why doesn't he come to meet me?" Grandma Eva looked around and did not see Grandpa John.
"Mom, Dad is in poor health. The doctor advised him to have more rest." Halbert explained.
"I just came out of the hospital! And look at me! He just doesn't want to see me! That liar!" Grandma Eva was angry.
