Puzzlement inundated Elias. “Why? You're Essie's grandmother. Why would Roxanne forbid you from visiting Essie? Is there some misunderstanding between you both?”
At that, Sonya sighed bitterly. “What misunderstanding could there be? She never liked me when she left six years ago. That aside, I'd always wanted Lucian to be with Aubree and objected to her being with him. Thus, she holds a grudge against me.”
While saying that, she hung her head and nestled into the man's embrace as though she had suffered untold grievances.
Subsequently, she added, “She's already treating me in such a manner now when she hasn't gotten back together with Lucian. What should I do if she were to really marry into the Farwell family in the future? Am I going to be prohibited from visiting my own son and granddaughter?”
Elias knew absolutely nothing about the issue between the two women.
After hearing his wife's complaints, his first reaction was to mediate a peaceful resolution.
“There must be some misunderstanding between the two of you. Everything will be fine after talking things out.”
At the end of the day, he didn't believe that his son would take an interest in a petty woman.
When Sonya noticed that the man showed no signs of siding with her, panic swamped her. She even eked out some tears.
“It's all on me. I shouldn't have poked my nose into her relationship with Lucian. But it wasn't me who forced her to leave six years ago. After she left, I even searched for her for a long time. And now, she wants to come back. What does she take the Farwell family for?”

Tightening his grip on her, Elias stated solemnly, “I'll ask Lucian about it.”
Only when Sonya heard that did she feel somewhat gratified.
Right then and there, Elias took out his phone and gave Lucian a call.
Meanwhile, Lucian was working in the study.
