My Child and I Married a Billionaire novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Great-Grandpa~

Cecelia Archer came to Candy’s rescue. "Candy isn’t feeling well today, so she’s not in the best mood. Please don’t take it personally. We were about to head on and look around some more. Are you going to keep shopping?"

The sister-in-law ignored her, her gaze fixed on Damien Vaughn with a broad smile.

"Of course! We just got here! Rocky wasn’t feeling well today either, always crying and fussing at home. I had no choice but to bring him out. The poor boy usually never asks for any toys, so I plan on buying him a few to make it up to him."

"Cecelia, how long has it been since we went shopping together? This is so wonderful!"

As she spoke, the sister-in-law looped her arm through Cecelia Archer’s in a show of intimacy.

’She was unbelievable,’ Cecelia Archer thought.

They had never gone shopping together. It was always the sister-in-law dropping hints about what her household needed, and Cecelia would be the one to dutifully go and buy it.

’It’s a shame the Academy won’t be giving her an Oscar for Best Actress.’

Since the woman wouldn’t leave, and they couldn’t very well just kick her out, the group of five had no choice but to continue shopping together.

Every time the sister-in-law saw something, she would pull Rocky over and ask if he liked it. She did this for item after item. Since Rocky’s mother rarely took him to such high-end malls, he naturally liked everything. The sister-in-law would then make a show of offering to buy it for him, and as a result, Damien Vaughn inevitably ended up paying for it all.

Half an hour later, both the sister-in-law and Rocky were laden with shopping bags.

Cecelia Archer checked the time. They still hadn’t found a gift for the old master, and Damien Vaughn would be in for it if he wasn’t home on time. She had no choice but to stop the sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, we’re running late for an appointment, so I’m afraid we have to leave. Are you and Rocky heading back now? I can call a car for you."

The sister-in-law had quite the haul today, having spent over 20,000 of Damien Vaughn’s money, and she was absolutely delighted.

Since they were leaving, she couldn’t be bothered to shop anymore either.

"Yes, let’s head back. You’re always so thoughtful. It really is inconvenient trying to manage your nephew and all these bags by myself. Thank you for calling a car for me."

A ride-share driver accepted the request quickly, and the group of five waved their goodbyes.

A middle-aged man with a pretty young woman on his arm was coming down the escalator and happened to witness the entire scene.

"Bye, Uncle! Bye, Auntie! Bye, Candy!"

"Cecelia, brother-in-law, we’re off then! It’s a deal, come over for dinner when you’re free! I’ll cook something delicious for you both. You have to come, okay!"

Hmm?

’Isn’t that Damien Vaughn? When did he get married? And with a daughter that old!’

The man was both shocked and confused. Not daring to approach Damien Vaughn directly, he recorded a short video and sent it to the old master.

"Uncle Vaughn, when did Damien get married? His child is already so big, and I had no idea! Why didn’t you mention it? You should have called me over for a celebratory drink. If I hadn’t happened to see him today, would I never have gotten to drink a toast at his celebration?"

Downstairs was bustling with activity as the two daughters-in-law helped set up for the old master’s birthday banquet.

Finding it too noisy, the old master had retreated to his study to practice calligraphy. He was stunned when he suddenly saw the message.

’Damien is married? With a child that old? How is that possible?’

But after watching the video again, he confirmed it was indeed him!

’That little brat! What has he been doing behind my back? I’m his grandfather, and I didn’t know a thing!’

"Where did you film this?"

"Westcap Road, Walden Plaza, fifth floor. Uncle Vaughn, if I hadn’t known about Damien’s good news, that would be one thing. But now that I do, I insist on making up for it with a proper gift. When are you free? I’ll come visit. You have to let me share in the good fortune."

’Good fortune? That scoundrel! If it’s such a happy occasion, why would he hide it from his family?’

The old master tossed his calligraphy brush aside and summoned the butler.

After finally seeing the sister-in-law off, Damien Vaughn took Cecelia Archer to the antiques section.
