Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169 

+15 BONUS 

Wouldn’t having your grandma move here be more convenient?I suggested

Matthew sat at the head of my bed. He scooped up a spoonful of cornflakes and brought it to my lips

That’s exactly what I think too, but Grandma doesn’t agree. She’s been in Southsville since she was young and doesn’t want to leave, insisting she’ll be buried there

What she really can’t part with, I believe, is the house. She had chosen it with Grandpa. For her, the house makes it feel like Grandpa is still around.” 

How’s your grandmother doing now?I took the bowl to eat by myself

Matthew didn’t try to take it back but set up a small table on the hospital bed. He said softly

Grandma’s wish has been fulfilled.” 

I’m sorry, I didn’t know.” 

She passed away last winter. I laid her to rest next to Grandpa so that they could be 

together forever. I think that made her happy.” 

Matthew was raised by his grandmother. He had a deep bond with her. He was enveloped in sorrow when he spoke of his grandmother, who had left him

He sat in a spot without sunlight, looking like an abandoned child. Tears slowly welled up in his eyes

I felt a pang of sympathy when I saw him sitting there alone

I reached out instinctively and held his hand that was resting on the table. Don’t be sad. Grandma is in heaven now, watching over us. Let me come with you when you pay her a visit, okay?” 

Matthew looked up in surprise. He took my hand in his palm and covered it with his other hand

His hand was large, warm, and strong

My face started to heat up. I was sure I was blushing

I wanted to pull my hand back, but he held it tightly and refused to let go

My heart thumped rapidly, like the beating of war drums

1/2 

After several unsuccessful attempts to free my hand, I let him hold it

+15 BONUS 

That morning, my heart softened when I saw a grownup who had liked me for years saddened over his beloved grandmother. I wanted to comfort him, to make him feel better

Lulu, I’m so happy. Really, I’m very happy. Thank you,he said, pressing my hand against his face

Matthew’s eyes were brimming with affection and contentment

I couldn’t believe letting him hold my hand like this could make him so happy. It seemed he was easily satisfied

Lulu, I’ll make you fall deeply in love with me, just like how I love you.” 

I couldn’t respond. I felt too shy to even look at him. Again, I tried to withdraw my hand, but Matthew held it tighter. He refused to let go
