Chapter 760
The tears that Taya was forcibly holding back from staying finally fell.
As it turned out, this seemingly innocent and lively pup knew everything.
Seeing Taya crying on the video call, Grace rushed to give the
screen a few kisses.
“Auntie, don’t cry, I’ll never say that again.”
It broke Taya’s heart to see the young Grace so concerned
about the emotions of others.
Having no parents of her own, Taya was brought up with low self-esteem and sensitivity, caring more about the feelings of
others than her own.
She didn’t expect that Grace would also be like her, understanding how to observe and read people’s expressions at such a young age, and placing others first in her heart.
Taya couldn’t stop the tears rolling down her face as she thought that when Grace grew up, Grace would become as
overly cautious as she was.
you
have to be so careful. You can say whatever
you want in front of me.”
Grace seemed to understand and nodded her chubby little head, “Then Auntie will stop crying, okay?”
After Taya answered “yes”, she lifted a finger and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, “Grace, where do you live
now?”
Grace cradled her phone in her arms and turned around, pointing the screen at the house at the foot of the cemetery, “I live in that little house.”
Strange Uncle lived up to his name. He insisted that the local
residents help him build a wooden house and said that he
would settle here in the future.
Grace hated this place so much because at night there were always people crying outside, and she was so frightened that
she cried several times.
If it wasn’t for Uncle George being here, she would have packed her little bags and fled.
Seeing Amon living at the foot of the cemetery with Grace,
Taya instantly frowned, “Grace, give George your phone.”
Grace responded with a sound, propped her hands on the
grass, stood up and walked quickly to stand in front of George who was leaning against a tree.
“Grandpa George, my aunt wants you to answer the phone.”
George opened his drowsy eyes, picked up the phone and poked his hand at Grace’s bulging stomach.
“I’ve told you, I’m only forty and I’m not old enough to be your grandpa.”
Grace originally called him uncle, but after knowing his age, she suddenly changed it to grandpa, and George wondered what that meant?
Standing on the side, Grace tilted her head and looked at George, thinking, “My grandfather was forty years old too, why could I call him “grandpa”, but not George? Does George not have the power and authority of my grandfather, so he cannot be called ‘grandpa’?”
Taya over there expressed shock when she heard George’s age, “George, are you only forty?”
When she first saw him and his white hair, she thought he was
in his sixties or seventies, but she did not expect him to be a
middle-aged man.
George rubbed his forehead helplessly, “Miss Palmer, appearances can be deceiving, and people’s worth cannot be judged solely by their age. Let’s not discuss age between us.”
“I’m sorry, hmm… George, Grace’s father, Casare just came to
see me.”
George lowered his hand on his forehead, his helpless expression turning instantly serious, “What did he want with. you?”
Taya replied truthfully, “He’s here for Grace…”
Next to her, Grace heard her father coming for her and hurriedly moved her head over, “Auntie, where’s my father?”
Before Taya could reply, she heard Amon’s casual voice on the other end, “Tell him I’m in the cemetery.”
Then a finger reached out towards the screen, and the video
call was disconnected.
Taya stared at the gradually darkening screen, thought for a few seconds and took the business card out of her pocket.
Amon did not resist Casare going to him, and Grace cannot live with Amon in the cemetery for long…
As soon as Taya entered the number on the business card into

her phone and dialed it, everything would be back on track.
But for some reason she felt uneasy, as if something big was about to happen, and that kept her from calling Casare.
