Huh?
Rebecca said she was a vivacious old lady?
To meet his grandma...
She was an important family member.
Mavis was indescribably nervous, clutching the hem of her coat uneasily.
It was the first time to meet their grandma, so did she need to prepare anything?
But she had seen all the good stuff, right?
The worldly jewels and gold must not have caught her eye, and with her present wealth she could not afford anything of value.
Thinking about this, Mavis can't help but feel a little anxious.
What was she gonna do?
To make a good impression on the old lady?
When people were nervous, even the eyes were easy to become erratic.
Mavis' nervousness was too obvious for Anthony to ignore.
"Don't be nervous. Grandma is easy to get along with. She won't make things difficult for you."
Having said that, Anthony can't guarantee that she will not give Mavis any trouble.
Mavis bit her lip and didn't speak for a long time.
They were a contract couple, but Mavis wanted to make a good impression on his family while she was his wife.
"Do I need a present for Grandma?"
Anthony chuckled. "What do you think she needs?"
Yes, as the elder of one of the three grand families in Crana, she had everything.
After much hesitation, she asked, "So... what kind of granddaughter-in-law would grandma like?"
She'll be the woman the Callahans liked.
Anthony's voice suddenly turned cold.
"Don't change anything. Just be yourself."
Sensing a flicker of anger in him, Mavis was at a loss.
Why was he angry... ? She didn't say anything wrong?
What was wrong with not wanting the Callahans to hate her?
Mavis, a little resentful, looked out the window.
Neither of them spoke.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became awkward.
It was Rebecca again, trying to lighten the mood.
Pressing the answer button in the car, Anthony asked, "What's wrong?"
"Anthony, Grandma's back today. Did you and Mavis go to the airport?"
"On the way. Prepare a room for Grandma. Remember to follow her preferences, and put on incense."
"Don't worry. You and Mavis stay safe. I'll be waiting for you."
After the call ended, Anthony offered to lighten the mood. "You like Spencer and Molly a lot?" He asked
At the mention of Spencer and Molly, Mavis's lips curved slightly. "Who wouldn't love cute, smart kids like them?"
If she can have such lovely children in the future, her life will be worth it.
To tell the truth, she really envied Lyra.
She had such a beautiful appearance, and her husband loved her so much. And they had such lovely kids. It was fair to say she had it all.
Anthony looked at her face and subconsciously said, "If you like kids, have them."
As he spoke, Mavis stared at him in shock.
Was he... serious?
Did he want to have a baby with her?
Sensing the warmth in her eyes, Anthony felt his face turn red. He did not continue the conversation but merely changed the subject. "I don't want Grandma to know that we are in a contract marriage. You should know what to do."
