After hanging up, William looked at Valeria and said, “You’re in charge of inviting Gavin to dinner!”
“Why? You’re the one who made the promise, so why are you asking me to do it now?” she retorted.
“We’re a married couple, so it doesn’t matter who does it, right?” he coaxed her with a smile, “Besides, I have amnesia. It’s not realistic for me to invite him to dinner, is it?”
“I don’t want to be in charge of this,” she did not hide her dissatisfaction in front of him.
“You and I were schemed against by Natasya and Hardy. My parents reminded my grandfather about it many times, but he didn’t believe them and kept defending Raelyn and Natasya. He even said that we need to have concrete evidence in order to accuse them! It’s obvious that he favors them and wants to help them… I’m very upset by his behavior, and now that you are here for me, I don’t need a biased grandfather like him anymore!”
“Darling, your grandfather isn’t biased! It’s true that we didn’t have evidence against Raelyn and Hardy, but that’s because they covered everything up. In other words, if Raelyn tries to accuse Archer, he will also require her to show him some evidence behind her claims. He is not wrong, and people his age tend to want to work things out, so I’m pretty sure it’s hard for him to face this situation!”
“Pfft! Look at you, you’re speaking wisely like an old man!” she said while rolling her eyes. He laughed and said, “You’re getting bolder! How dare you mock me for being old?”
“Aren’t you? You’re older than me anyway, so you’re an old man!”
“Have you seen any old men as handsome and loveable as me?” he stuck his tongue out, “Well, I’ll admit that I am an old man, so can you give your grandfather a call?”
“I don’t want to! I’m not in the mood!” she said deliberately.
“Be good, my dear. I’ll give you a kiss!”
“Disgusting!” Even though she said that it was disgusting, she still enjoyed it when he showered her with kisses. Then, she reluctantly picked up her mobile phone and dialed Gavin’s number.
Gavin was sulking on the sofa with Oreo in his arms when he heard his phone ring. If it were someone else, he would have definitely not picked it up, but it was a call from Valeria.
He picked up the phone and her sweet voice came through, “Grandpa! I’m Valeria. What are you doing now?”
“I’m alone at home,” he replied gloomily.
“You must be lonely! I’ll come back and have dinner with you.”
“You? No, you are pregnant, so you shan’t move around so much.”
“Then can you come to see me? I haven’t seen you for a long time, and I miss you. Can you come and have dinner with me?” she acted like a spoiled child.
The words “I miss you” made his eyes turn red. When he thought of how Raelyn and Natasya tortured Valeria, he felt extremely sad.
He was not a fool. Previously, he did not believe Archer and Natalie’s accusations because there was no evidence, and he wanted to prioritize harmony in his family. But now, the concrete evidence was laid out in front of him.
Judging by the fact that Natasya pretended to be William’s girlfriend, one could tell just how shameless she was.
How did he raise such a shameless person? Raelyn and her daughter’s shamelessness contrasted sharply with Valeria’s purity, and he felt a lump in his throat, “Valeria, I’m so sorry!”
He wept bitterly as he was choked up with sobs. Valeria was shocked and subconsciously looked at William. He silently asked her to comfort Gavin, and she immediately began to console him. After a while, he finally calmed down.
“I will come and see you right away! What do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you.”
“You coming here is enough for me! I’m in the Wolf Group now.”
“You’ve been discharged from the hospital?” he was very surprised.
“I’m not discharged yet, but It’s too frustrating for me to continue to stay there, so I’m staying in the Wolf Group for a few days first. Grandpa, come here and I’ll treat you to a big meal.”
He agreed and hung up the phone. She let out a sigh of relief, “Hubby, did my grandfather cry just now?”
“Yes, he was touched by your affection!” William laughed.
“What did I say to make him cry? Wasn’t he so protective of Natasya and Raelyn before? Why’s he a completely different person after I called him?” she did not understand.
William laughed, “Let your smart husband analyze this for you. He only found out about Natasya and Raelyn’s true colors today, so he must be furious. Finding out that he was lied to by the people he trusted most made him lash out at your father. He probably broke down when his sweet granddaughter called to check up on him because he was so touched.”
“You know that this would happen! William, you asked me to call him on purpose, didn’t you?”
“Yes, but it’s not that I don’t want to call him. I can’t!” he explained in a good temper.
“Your grandfather is very angry now. If you, the person who was most wronged in this situation, called to comfort him and invite him to dinner, he would let go of the rage. It would be outright unreasonable if he stubbornly stayed mad even after you did all of this. I bet that he will be all smiles when he visits you later, and he probably won’t be mad at your parents anymore. Natasya and her mother, on the other hand, won’t be so lucky. I predict that he will cut ties with them.”
“You meanie! How dare you use me! You’ve crossed the line!”
“It’s my fault. I apologize! Please forgive me, my beautiful wife,” he pleaded.
After laughing and joking in the room for a while, Valeria suddenly remembered that she wanted to invite other people over for dinner, “Shall we invite everyone over tonight?”
“Sure, everything’s up to my beautiful wife,” he teased.
“Okay, then I’ll call Abbie and Braelynn, and you can call Michael, Richard, and Marcus,” she said as she picked up her phone happily.
“I haven’t seen Braelynn for a long time, and I miss her very much. Have you heard of her sad past? She was kidnapped by Lucian! How can someone be so heartless? By the way, Abbie has always said that we look alike. Why does Braelynn look like me? Is she a relative of mine?”
“Is that possible?” William looked at her helplessly and smiled, “Darling, I think you’d better call Braelynn and Abbie first. Let’s talk about this later.”
