Katherine looked at Ivy between them and felt her heart ache. With the child here, she didn’t want to fight with him.

Up on the second floor.

Elijah stood there, his gaze heavy as it fell on Rachel.

He had never liked Rachel. Whether she was decent or vile, Elijah saw clearly.

A woman who knowingly clung to a married man for eight years wouldn’t have great

character.

If not for the ties between the Grants and Harts, he would never have allowed her to stay

here.

“Mr. Elijah, the child Mr. Lucas brought back is really adorable,” George said.

Elijah looked over. Seeing the little pink bundle, warmth softened his eyes. “What did Lucas call that child just now?”

“Ivy.”

“Ivy. That’s a lovely name.” Elijah sighed. “I wonder what Katherine’s children’s genders were.”

“Mr. Elijah, just now, were you testing Mrs. Gran, or are you convinced she didn’t abort the children back then?”

“Based on Katherine’s personality, I don’t believe she’d be able to bring herself to abort the babies, but I can’t be 100% certain, because…”

Because his own grandson was a complete mess

In a moment of rage, Katherine might really have acted impulsively.

Besides, he had checked. There truly was no evidence that she had given birth.

So earlier, it had been more of a test than a conclusion.

“If Katherine really didn’t abort the children, that would be wonderful.”

At lunch, Elijah looked at Ivy with undisguised affection. “Ivy, eat more.”

Ivy sat beside Lucas, one hand holding her plate the other gripping her spoon. She wasn’t shy at all, eating like she was at home, shoveling food nonstop, her little mouth never resting.

If nothing else, Ivy was always number one at eating.

“I love meat,” she said between bites.

“Good, good, eat more meat.” Elijah laughed heartily. “And you can just call me Grandpa.”

“Ahem…” Katherine nearly sprayed her food in shock.

Lucas’s long brows lifted slightly as he looked at her. “What’s wrong?”

Elijah was Lucas’s grandfather.

If Ivy also called Elijah “Grandpa”…

That would completely mess up the family tree.

Katherine tugged at the corner of her mouth. “Nothing. I just choked a bit.”

Elijah smiled and reminded Katherine to eat slowly.

Katherine desperately wanted to grab Ivy and interrogate her about how she’d gotten to Crestburg, and where Julian and Ethan had gone

What, are they set on scaring their poor mom to death

Rachel sat beside Sarah, poking at her food with her fork, her eyes locked on Katherine and Ivy as if she wanted to burn holes through them

This is driving me insane.

I don’t just have to deal with Katherine.

Now, some random kid showed up out of nowhere to help Katherine gang up on me.

This is infuriating.

Absolutely infuriating!

After lunch, Lucas told Fred to keep trying to contact Ivy’s parents.
