Laurie looked at Rosemary coldly, snorted, and turned upstairs.
Rosemary saw Andrew Harris with pain in his eyes. She sat next to him and said, “Dad, don’t be sad. She’ll know one day that you have her best interests at heart.”
Rosemary comforted Andrew Harris, said a few words of reassurance, and drove back to The Grant’s.
…
“Rosemary!” The Old Mrs. Grant was so happy to see Rosemary back.
Rosemary’s face lit up with a smile when she saw The Old Mrs. Grant. “Grandma!”
The Old Mrs. Grant looked at Rosemary lovingly and smiled. “You’re going back to school tomorrow. Have you got everything ready? If you need anything, buy it yourself. Did Darren give you any money today?”
Rosemary saw The Old Mrs. Grant’s expression of concern and felt very happy. Although Wilson Grant could not be with her, it was a blessing to have a grandmother who loved her.
“Don’t worry! I’m all set. He gave me the money, and now I have everything!” Rosemary said sweetly with a smile on her face.
The Old Mrs. Grant was relieved to hear her say that. “Go up and take a shower,” she urged. “Then come down for dinner later. Darren and Marian will be home for dinner today.”
“Ok.” Rosemary smiled.
Rosemary went to her room, took a shower, changed into a casual dress, and went downstairs.
Rosemary went downstairs and saw Darren Grant and Marian already back. They were sitting on the sofa reading the evening paper when she stepped forward and called out in a shallow voice, “Mom, Dad!”
Darren Grant looked up at Rosemary and said faintly, “Yes?” Then he looked down and went back to reading.
“Are you ready for dinner, Mr. Grant?” Owen walked up to Darren Grant and asked respectfully.
“Yes.” Darren Grant put down his newspaper and walked to the big mahogany round table in the dining room.
Darren Grant walked over to the table and helped The Old Mrs. Grant sit down before he sat down.
“Good evening, grandma!” Chad Grant cried as he walked in the door and hugged her.
“Good evening.” She patted Chad Grant indulgently on the back.
“Let’s start dinner!” Darren Grant said gently.
With that, Chad Grant turned and went back to his seat.
Rosemary was eating with her head down, and she always felt something was wrong with the atmosphere today. She just wanted to finish the dinner as soon as possible.
“Rosemary?” Marian’s voice sounded faintly.
Rosemary looked up at Marian doubtfully with a bad feeling in her heart. She tightened her grip on her chopsticks.
“You’ve been married into our family for a while now, and you should think about having a child for The Grant family. As to how? It’s up to you.”
