Chapter 254
Staying in King Family, Preston’s past
winter vacation is coming, everyone in Class 7 has basically returned to San Francisco, and a small number of them choose to visit a certain scenic spot.
Hedy first went to visit his grandfather’s house, and after being rubbed, hugged and kissed by several people, he returned to the apartment.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Amos and grandma playing with Little Thirteen.
Little Thirteen is also very face–saving, milky milky wags her tail, showing a very close relationship.
Grandpa, grandma.” Hedy greeted, “Recently, are you in good health?”
“Daughter–in–law is back? The general and I are in good health.” Grandma had a kind face and came over to hold Hedy’s hand,
“Yes How is your back injury?”
When Hedy won the championship, she and Amos watched in front–of the TV, not to mention how proud she was.
Apart from being proud, they were also very distressed, especially when they learned that the granddaughter–in–law only spent three months practicing figure skating and fell so many falls.
“It’s all right, nothing serious.”
Grandma nodded, “That’s good.”
“Hedy.” Amos said, “We came back from the country this time, and we have two things.”
“Please tell me.”
“First One thing, I want you and Preston to get engaged and hold an engagement banquet for you.” Grandma looked expectantly.
Amos added, “You haven’t reached the legal age of marriage, so you can’t get married. You can only hold an engagement banquet first, and when you reach the age, it’s not too late to get married.” “Yes.”
Hedy nodded.
“The second thing is to bring you into the King Family so that others
won’t continue to gossip.” Having said this, Grandma’s expression suddenly became slightly cold.
“Okay.” Hedy’s eyes flashed, and he understood what the “rumours” in grandma’s mouth meant.
Although she made an official announcement with Preston, she never followed Preston back to live in the King Family Instead, she lived outside and never met the relatives and friends of the King Family.
This led some media and the outside world to speculate whether she was not recognized by the King Family, or something else
In fact, she rented a house here at the time, just because she didn’t want to make a high profile.
Preston lives here to accompany her.
“Then you go to King Family with us now, and take Little Thirteen with you, and let the servant deliver the things back.” Grandma took
Hedy is fine right now, so he agreed to grandma ‘s proposal, and the three of them took Little Thirteen and took a military jeep to King Family.
King Family is a manor with a large area and beautiful scenery. It is a mansion among mansions.
But the feeling here is a bit cold, and it seems that there is no popularity.
The jeep stopped in front of the villa.
The three got out of the car, and the maid carried Little Thirteen down first.
This maid Hedy met in San Francisco.
Grandma and Amos walk in with Hedy.
There are two posthumous photos in the villa, which are Preston’s mother and father.
She was weak and sick since childhood, and Preston died when he was nine years old.
Ben died in an accidental car accident when Preston was eighteen.
Hedy didn’t understand these things until later.
“Actually, the general and I have always felt very sorry for this child -Preston.” Grandma put a stick of incense on
She and Ben, with a sad expression, “This child is too obedient. He was only four years old when his mother was in poor health. He just went to learn how to make cakes and make his mother happy.
Whether it was an exam, or piano equestrian violin, he would do his best, and then take the awards and medals back to show to his mother. He thought that this would make her proud and happy. His mother
did She was very happy, and often said that Preston was a gift from God to her.
Unfortunately, she still failed to overcome the illness.”
Grandma wiped her tears.
She has experienced twice the pain of a white–haired person sending a black–haired person.
After wiping away her tears, grandma said again, “On the day my mother was buried, Preston cried very sadly, and he stopped crying the next day.
I asked him why, and he said that if he kept crying, Dad would be more sad, and grandparents would be sad, so He can’t cry.
Tell me, isn’t that child like a gentle little sun?”
Hedy nodded, feeling a little depressed.
I didn’t expect Preston’s past to be like this.
“But he will cry secretly, he will lock himself up and cry, and I have seen it several times.” Grandma smiled.
“After his mother passed away, he studied harder. We almost didn’t have to worry about it. He would worry about us and worry about us.
This, there is no elder who does not envy our King Family for producing a Preston. At that time, there was a saying ‘Having a child should be like Preston‘.” Grandma puffed out her chest unconsciously.
“It’s also being circulated now.” Hedy corrected kindly.
“Indeed.” Grandma smiled, and then became even more sad,
“It’s a pity that the good times didn’t last long. When he was eighteen, his father died in a car accident. Before he could be sad, he had to take over the crumbling King Family, because the general and I don’t know how to do business…”
A heavy burden suddenly fell on the shoulders of the just–adult Preston.
“As a result, he not only revived the King Family, but also developed the King Family and gradually formed what it is today.” Grandma said with emotion,
“Sometimes the general and I also think, isn’t he tired? Why, he never complained to us. What about it?”
Hedy said softly, “He hopes you can be happier.”
“Yeah, why is he so sensible.” Grandma wiped her tears again.
Amos stood in front of the floor–to–ceiling windows smoking a cigarette, and the reflection on the glass was equally sad and remorseful.
“By the way, grandma.” Hedy changed the subject, “Do you know what Preston likes to eat?”
Grandma asked, “What’s the matter? Do you want to buy it for him?”
Hedy shook her head, “I want to make it for him.‘
