But the look in his eyes had grown colder. Anyone who was with him could sense his lousy mood right now.
Julia was even more worried now. “Elisa, you…”
She stopped halfway.
Elisa looked more relaxed now. She smiled and reassured Julia, “Grandma, you don’t have to worry about me. Really.”
“Sigh. How can I not worry about you? Why don’t you come back, Elisa? Tell Vincent to send you back here. I shall chase that rascal away from this place so we can talk. How does that sound?”
Elisa spoke gently, “Grandma, I’m really fine. Moreover, I still have some work to do. How about I go visit you some other day?”
Vincent knew that Elisa would not go back tonight. She was still overwhelmed with her feelings. So he interrupted, “Grandma, I’m sending her back now. She’s going to see her best friend so she will feel much better. You don’t have to worry; I’ll make sure she gets back safely.”
Elisa pursed her lips silently.
Finally, Julia took a deep sigh. She had not expected this to happen.
“Sigh… I would not have told him to prepare a surprise for you if I knew this would happen. This is all my fault!”
Elisa quickly answered, “Don’t say that, Grandma. I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
“Fine… I won’t.” Julia was obviously throwing a tantrum now.
Elisa pursed her lips. She was suddenly at a loss for words.
