Chapter 375 Visit Andrew’s Grandfather
Chapter 375 Visit Andrew’s Grandfather
Ashley felt exhausted after dinner. She didn't like most of the food that was served except for the soup.
Thus Ashley had a lot of serving of the soup which made her feel full right away.
When she put her bowl down, she let out a burp.
When Andrew looked at her, Ashley immediately flushed. She felt so embarrassed that she wanted to hide herself.
Much to Ashley's relief, Andrew just smiled at her and looked away.
She gazed back at Andrew whose dazzling smile was mesmerizing.
There were lots of camellias outside the villa. After dinner, Ashley liked to walk around to help digest the food she had just eaten.
She intended to go on her daily walk that day too.
The sun hadn't set yet but the weather wasn't hot. When Ashley and Andrew stepped out of the villa, the breeze that met them made them feel refreshed and relaxed.
Ashley walked over to the white camellias—taking the scene around her, all in. Never had she felt so relaxed.
Andrew followed Ashley's gaze and asked, "Do you like these flowers?"
Even though this was his villa, he wasn't the one who had designed his garden. No wonder Ashley felt so distant and unfamiliar with the place when she first came here.
'Maybe it was Johnny who had the flowers planted, ' she thought to herself.
She chuckled at the thought of Johnny.
'Johnny's such a great assistant. He is quite helpful. He handles everything from work to Andrew's personal life, ' she thought inwardly.
When she saw the look on Andrew's face, she spoke, "Yes, I like them very much."
Suddenly, the breeze blew again to which the camellias responded with a soft, graceful dance.
"I'd like you to meet someone. Can we do it over the weekend?"
Andrew said as they walked back to the villa.
"This weekend? Who am I going to meet?" Ashley asked doubtfully as she looked at Andrew.
"My grandfather."
As soon as the words left Andrew's mouth, he regretted it immediately. He had initially decided to tell Ashley on the day they were actually going to visit his grandfather. He didn't know why he had to tell her in advance.
Ashley was visibly taken aback—she had stopped in her tracks.
She didn't catch the look of regret on Andrew's face.
'Visit his grandfather?
Do I have to visit Andrew's family now?' thought Ashley.
Whenever Andrew avoided the topic before, she would feel briefly upset but would quickly get over it.
When Andrew mentioned meeting his grandfather, she felt nervous right away.
'Am I really going to meet Andrew's family now?' she thought inwardly.
She said gently, "Are we going to visit your grandfather this weekend? What if I'm not ready yet? What's your grandfather like? I'd like to bring a gift for him."
Ashley looked at Andrew nervously as she thought about meeting Andrew's family.
She was both a little excited and nervous.
Andrew tried to comfort Ashley, "Well, you don't have to prepare anything. Your presence is the most important."
Andrew was brought up by his grandfather. His father and mother were only married for business. In marriages like this, even if they didn't love each other, they couldn't simply separate as they had to think of the business ties and connections they could possibly break if they did.
However, Andrew's mother was different. At first, she had wholeheartedly agreed to marry Andrew's father. No one had expected that she would ask for a divorce less than two years after they got married.
Andrew's father also had a mistress. They divorced when Andrew was just six years old. After the divorce, Andrew's mother had gone on to live in another country.
She hadn't come back to visit Andrew in years.
Andrew grew up with his grandfather. His grandfather had taken a liking for him.
Out of everyone in his family, it was his grandfather that he respected the most. Nothing would make him happier than to get his grandfather's approval of Ashley.
Even then, he knew his grandfather would support him if he told him how much he loved Ashley.
Ashley frowned. "Don't we have to prepare anything? But this is the first time I'm meeting him. I should probably bring something. Tell me what he likes and maybe I can buy or prepare it for him."
Andrew conceded. He smiled gently as he responded, "All right, all right. Let's think about that later. Let's go inside the house now."
Ashley nodded and said, "Okay."
Ashley started preparing for her meeting with Andrew's grandfather as early as that same night.
Since Angelina started living at the Gu villa, her life had changed drastically. She had never think that her dream would ever come true.
Never in her wildest dreams would she have thought that she would be born into a rich family and tragically separated from them at such a young age. She couldn't believe that this was actually happening.
'My real family has found me.
I'm a member of the Gu family now, '
Angelina beamed as she thought of this.
Jennifer looked at Angelina in amazement. She reached out to touch Angelina's forehead gently and said, "You don't have a fever, do you?"
Angelina came back to her senses. She removed Jennifer's hand and said, "What are you doing?"
Jennifer looked at Angelina carefully and said, "What do you mean what am I doing? What are you doing? Since you met your brother, you've been acting a bit weird. What happened? Why are you so happy?"
"What did I just do?" Angelina asked.
Jennifer nodded and said, "You're acting strange. You've been acting like this since yesterday. Did you win the lottery or something? Why are you acting like that?"
Angelina remained still, looked at Jennifer and said rather mysteriously, "No, I didn't win the lottery. I don't have a fever either. I'm just in a good mood."
Angelina decided to keep her little secret to herself for now. She wasn't sure anyway so she couldn't tell anyone yet. It would be embarrassing if things suddenly change and she had already told people.
Jennifer said, "Really? You're in a good mood. But you've never acted like this before even when you were in a good mood then.
Please tell me what happened. Why are you so happy? Just tell me." All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Angelina thought for a moment and then said, "Well, it's better than winning the lottery."
"What? You're rich now?" Jennifer prompted.
