“Grandma.”
Mrs. Chester was so emotional that Jaquan couldn’t help frowning and interrupting her.
“You know my mother’s health. She almost died a few years ago. The doctor said that she had to rest. Don’t blame her.”
He explained and did not forget what his mother had suffered.
In addition to that, he also added.
“If Cici hadn’t come back, I’m afraid what you said would have been true. My mother wouldn’t come back anymore. After all, the doctor said that my mother wouldn’t have survived two years.”
As he spoke, he raised his eyes and glanced sharply at Belle.
Belle was shocked. “Why are you looking at me? My dear nephew, you said your mother is in poor health. If she really can’t make it, she won’t be so lucky. It’s not my fault, is it? Besides, isn’t she fine now? Tell me, what quack doctor did your family hire?”
Her tone was hurried, and she panicked naturally in order to defend herself.
Others didn’t know what she had done, but she knew what she had done.
During that time, she had been saying that Sarah was not blessed, which had caused Sarah to become sadder, and she was ill.
She was stubborn, but no one knew what she was thinking in her heart.
“Aunt, why are you in such a hurry to refute? I didn’t say anything about you. I just told you about my mother’s past.”
Jaquan sneered in his heart. His sharp gaze was filled with disdain as he looked coldly at Belle.
“You’re in such a hurry to defend yourself. It makes it seem like you’ve harmed my mother.”
Belle stiffened.
She felt guilty and her face turned pale.
When she came to her senses and was about to defend herself, she was interrupted by Mrs. Chester.
“All right. It’s not easy for our family to gather together. Don’t say those things. It’s very depressing!”
“Mom, you’re right. Sarah would be fine.”
She took the opportunity to hold back her words and coax her mother.
And she also criticized Sarah.
As expected, Mrs. Chester did not say anything else. Her face darkened and she did not mention it again.
After her turbid old eyes swept over Sarah, she looked elsewhere.
“By the way, didn’t you say that Cici would come today? Where is she?”
She missed Cici so much.
She kept saying.
What’s more, Sarah had Cici at an advanced age, and there was a big gap between her and Jaquan.
Now that she was back, she was the apple of the elders’ eye!
Mrs. Chester glanced around and did not see any unfamiliar faces. She could not help but look at Sarah in confusion.
“I’m coming!”
When the girl’s voice came from behind, everyone’s eyes followed her.
With a smile on her face, Cierra held the hand of the other little guy. “I’m sorry. Just now, Will said that he would take me to see the flowers he planted at Mr. Chester’s house, so I’m late for a while.
I’m sorry!”
“I’m sorry, great-grandma and great-grandpa. I took Aunt to see the flowers.”
Will looked eagerly at them.
What he said was true, but he didn’t have much feelings for them.
The reason why he went to see the flowers was that he didn’t want to come here, but Will was afraid of Jaquan, so he had to take Cierra with him.
Every time he followed his father to the Chester family, no one cared about him..
He was alone. He always felt that he was not their relative. He was very sad.
He didn’t expect to hear them call Cierra.
Will suddenly felt a little guilty.
As such, he tightened his grip.
