"What would you like, kids?" Aubree took the children's hand. "There are mangoes, grapes, cantaloupe, and jackfruit in the fridge."
While in front of the children, she couldn’t be serious.
"Grandma, I’d like some mango!" Diana raised her hand cutely, her eyes narrowing as she smiled.
Alfie also replied, "Then I’ll have some mangoes too."
"Okay." Aubree let go of Alfie and Diana's hand and stood up, "I'll go get it." With that, she went to the dining room.
It was the servants’ job to prepare fruits, but now Aubree wanted to take the time to adjust her mood.
Seeing Alfie and Diana’s innocent faces and smiles, Aubree just couldn’t be ruthless.
Although they were Jennifer’s children, their father was Ivan.
As their grandmother, Aubree loved them.
"Madam Aubree, I’ll do it." A maid followed her.
"No, leave it to me." Aubree picked up two large mangoes, washed them, and cut them with a knife.
Yet accidentally, she cut her index finger while dicing the mangoes. Blood quickly seeped out.
She stared blankly at her blood, couldn’t feel any pain.
The pain was always an afterthought.
The maid next to her screamed, "Madam Aubree! Put down the knife! You've cut your hand!" She quickly took the mango and the knife from Aubree’s hand and wiped the blood with a handkerchief.
"I'll go get the medicines!" The maid was anxious.
Aubree's eyes were pale, "No need to panic. It's nothing serious." Compared to the injury on Ivan's back, hers wasn’t worth mentioning.
Alfie and Diana heard the panicked voice of the maid and hurried to the door.
