“How are you, Grandma? Are you feeling better?” Lucas followed Ashlyn into the room as well.
Susan was surprised to see this tall and handsome man. Gazing at Lucas, her eyes glimmered with emotion as she courteously said, “Lucas, what are you doing here so early in the morning? Don’t you need to go to work? You really don’t need to worry too much over an old lady like me.”
Lucas nodded lightly. “Grandma, you don’t need to be so polite with me.”
Ashlyn took out the lunchbox she had prepared and turned around, only to see that there were expensive gift boxes strewn all over the couch on the far end of the room as well as the coffee table in the center.
The gifts included supplements and some lavish daily necessities.
She could also tell that the flowers in the room had just been changed by the dewdrops on the sunflower petals.
One glance was enough for her to conclude that Lucas was the one who prepared everything.
Horace would never be this kind.
Ashlyn stared at Lucas with a complicated gaze as her heart fluttered in her chest. “You’re more thoughtful than I am. Thank you.”
This man is so attentive.
Even more so than me as a granddaughter.
“Your Grandma is my Grandma too.” Lucas’ dark eyes narrowed slightly as he peered down at her, saying in a baritone voice, “You treated my grandfather better than I ever did last time, so... it’s my turn now.”
Ashlyn was taken aback. Her long lashes fluttered slightly as she thought about the time Charles was still alive.
Lucas was always busy back then, so she always freed up some time to accompany Charles every week. They played chess, chatted and had tea together.
She used to be in a hidden marriage last time, so she couldn’t take her grandmother in.
Now that she was divorced, she was going to stay with her grandmother no matter what.
Susan studied the two of them with her wise eyes. The more she did, the more she was certain that they were a match made in heaven.
“I have told Lucas not to do anything excessive, but that assistant of his, Spencer, kept sending in gifts of every size.”
