"Ha-ha..." Grandma Clement laughed, "Aisling, you are old, and so am 1.1 will be able to have my great-grandson soon, and you will have your grandson. Therefore, I will not argue with you in the future. In front of the children, I will try my best not to embarrass you. After all, you have your own pride, so I understand you."
She thought about it over and over again. She was old, and she couldn't travel back and forth from aboard to home anymore. Her family members were always worried about her. In this case, she would not go aboard again.
After all, she had to get along well with her family. She was so old, and there was nothing she couldn't give in. She could respect her daughter-in-law in front of others. After all, no one wanted to be criticized in public.
"Ha-ha..." This time, Aisling laughed, "Mom, have you finally admitted that you're old?" Grandma Clement nodded with a smile, “My hair is grey, and my face is full of wrinkles. I even have my great- grandchildren. Aren't I old? Kenny, Gia and Ricky are almost seven years old. See, I'm so lucky. Phillip's parents died at a young age. They didn't even have the luck to watch their grandson get married. I should cherish my luck now."
Aisling walked over and sat beside her, "Mom, I'm sorry for having argued with you for so many years! I'll change my temper in the future. Eden is right. When we are alive, we should get along well, not to mention that we're family. After I found Eden, I felt so sad when I heard from others that she used to live a bad life. She grew up in such a family, but she didn't give up on herself. On the contrary, she was confident and hard-working. She had the urge to make progress. She's successful now, so we can know how hard-working she is."
"Yeah!" Grandma Clement nodded, "We should thank the hardships we once suffered. Only by experiencing different lives can we live a better life. Eden will get better and better in the future. Life is short. Even if we can't make great achievements, we can't live like a coward. Your children are all obedient and conscientious, and you should be gratified."
Aisling nodded with a smile, "Mom, I've learned how to cherish my happiness. It's not easy to live a happy life."
"Mm! It's good that you understand this. Decorate Buddy's room quickly and let Zofia live here. When will you pick up Zofia?"
"Mom, don't worry. I have sent someone to arrange it. Besides, we can't pick her up if she has no time." She knew that Grandma Clement was anxious and worried about Zofia. She was concerned about Zofia, too. After all, Zofia was pregnant but she insisted on working.
Jasper had been on a business trip during this period of time. After getting off the plane, he went straight back to his office.
Sitting in the office, he took out his phone and looked at Eden's phone number, but he didn't dial it all the time.
He lowered his head. Under the dim light, his facial features looked more brooding. His eyes were gentle as he looked at her phone number. These days, his heart was in a mess, and he had been avoiding Eden.
When he was on the business trip, he had been thinking that he should let go of his love for Eden. Victor was not only her childhood sweetheart, but also the father of her children. It was so perfect. How could he bear to separate them?
Jasper got up and stood in front of the French window. His back looked so depressed and melancholic. Looking at the lights outside, he seemed to be so lonely in this city.
He looked down at his phone again. This time, he dialed Eden's phone number without hesitation.
Soon, the phone was connected.
"Jasper, are you back? When did you come back?"
Her voice was as usual, and he couldn't help laughing, "Eden, I came back today, and I just arrived home. Have you eaten yet? If you haven't, let's have a meal together."
This was the first time that he had had the courage to face her after she was with Victor.
He always avoided her before, because he didn't know how face her.
In fact, he thought too much. If he concealed the love in his heart like he used to, he and Eden would be friends again.
They could still chat happily and play together as they used to.
Eden was speechless.
"Has Mr. Skye felt better? Can you record a video for Abby secretly? She has been worried about him these days."
Victor smiled, "Dear, since you said so, I'll record a video for her. But do you really want to meet Jasper?"
Eden said, "Why can't I meet Jasper? He is my friend." Eden said in a warning tone. She knew what Victor was thinking about.
Victor said, "Of... course you can meet him. I'll come to you when I leave here. Let's go home together."
Eden said, "Call me at that time."
Victor responded listlessly, "Okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Eden shook her head helplessly. Since she was with Victor, she had been very annoyed every day. Victor was very clingy. At night, he had to sleep with her, and he was reluctant to leave her at daytime.
Especially when they stayed alone, Victor, who was cold in front of outsiders, could actually whisper a lot of sweet nothings to her.
He always said something like "You are pretty much the only thing that makes me want to get up in the morning." She didn't even know how he could say this.
In her eyes, he was simply too sappy.
