Chapter 97 Too Far Away To Help
Alfie took Diana's hand to give her some hints and strength.
Grandma's attire was very special, wrapping herself up so tightly, which gave off a sense of distance.
When Diana saw her grandmother wearing a half mask, she was instinctively scared, but she was her grandmother, her family, after all, and she had to please her grandmother. Pippa helped the old Mrs. Marsh to sit on the couch.
The children held their hands firmly, their eyes blinking.
In the bright light, their exquisite faces were clearly seen. Aubree looked at them up closely. The two children looked just like Ivan.
They were simply likable, and unlike those wild kids who grew up in the village, they were well-mannered.
The only flaw was that they were Jennifer's kids.
This irked Aubree to the most.
Having withdrawn her gaze, Aubree sat down in the couch with a cold face.
The living room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Alfie let go of his sister's hand and hurried forward to pick up the teapot, and Diana cooperated with him tacitly, handing him two cups and helped him pour two cups of tea. Aubree just watched as they walked toward her with the tea cups.
"Grandma, please have some tea."
"Please have tea, lady."
The soft baby voice warmed Pippa's heart and she couldn't help but smile, "Thank you." She reached out to take it.
Jordan, who was standing aside, felt relieved to see this scene.
Aubree couldn't be hard on a child in front of the others, as it would make her look petty.
She reached out to take the cup of tea and took a sip.
"Grandma, are you here to see Dad?" With a smile on her face, Diana mustered the courage to ask, "If it's important, you can call him, but if it's not urgent, then let's talk about it tomorrow. He's quite tired today. Maybe he's already asleep."
"Tired? Where did they go?" Aubree gazed at him.
Alfie's voice was loud and clear, "Daddy has taken Mommy out of town by train!"
"By train?" Aubree was stunned. What a new word.
Then her face changed!
How could the president of the Marsh Group travel by train?
Alfie sat down on the opposite couch, his eyes shining, "Grandma, Daddy took Mommy to fly a kite. Then they headed to the beach and made a fort out of sand. They also went to see a little girl Mommy used to sponsor! Took lots of pictures!"
He wanted to tell Grandma that Daddy and Mommy were very close.
Fly a kite? Make a fort? Ride a train?
What's the magic of Jennifer?
Aubree panicked. She felt her son had been snatched away!
"Grandma, why don't you stay tonight?" Diana approached forward and take her gloved hand.
Aubree was a little surprised and gazed at her. The little girl was as pretty as a doll. She had two cute pigtails and pretty milky skin, unlike the village bumpkin as she imagined.
"Grandma, if you stay, we'll sleep with you tonight!" This was what Alfie said.
Pippa was just about to help Aubree reject it, but instead the Madam said, "OK."
Her son liked peace and quiet and was used to being alone, so Aubree had never spent the night in Emerald Bay.
The two children looked at each other and smiled.
"Grandma! Let's go upstairs!" The children came over to pull her.
Pippa hurried to protect Aubree, "Slow down, slow down."
Watching them go upstairs, Jordan was lost in his thoughts.
Thus, the children led Aubree upstairs.
"Watch out, watch out!" Pippa was supporting her beside. "Be careful, slow down!"
Aubree was wrapped tightly from head to toe, showing only half of her face. Her body did not hurt anymore, but the burn marks on her skin were unsightly, and her outfit like this was only to cover them. The several people disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
Marry came to Jordan's side and asked worriedly, "What should we do? Should we tell Mr. Marsh?"
"Mr. Marsh is not in Arkpool City... I'm afraid that he's too far away to help."
