Chapter69
The gloom between Reynaldo’s eyebrows instantly receded.
He didn’t look at me again, he just turned around and pushed the door
Just as the servant opened the door, he saw him and exclaimed with joy, “Madam, it’s Mr. Reynaldo, Mr. Reynaldo has returned.”
As the servant’s words fell, an old lady, leaning on a cane, excitedly approached.
“Reynaldo, my eldest grandson, you have finally returned.”
Reynaldo hurriedly went to support her.
“Sorry, Grandma, I came back late.”
Reynaldo said, helping his grandmother Danielle to sit down on the sofa.
I endured the pain in my knee and followed along.
Today is Danielle’s 80th birthday.
Danielle’s hair was gray, but she looked fine and in good spirits.
I used to think that Reynaldo was a black sheep of a wealthy family, disliked by everyone in the family.
But at this moment, as I looked at Danielle and saw the kind and loving look in her eyes, I realized that she truly cared for her grandson.
Without exaggeration. Danielle was his most important family member
But I used to mock the person he loved the most.
No wonder I said those things about his grandmother back then, he. who had always been gentle and virtuous, looked at me with such cold and resentful eves.
“You, you deserve a beating! Today is my S0th birthday, and you actually arrived so late!”
Danielle pretended to angrily tap Reynaldo’s back of the hand.
The servant interjected. “Yes, young master, you have always prioritized matters concerning the old lady, let alone such a big event like her eightieth birthday. Why did you come back so late?”
You didn’t know, the old lady has been waiting downstairs for you all along. She even said. “If you don’t come back, this banquet won’t be allowed to start.”
Without waiting for Reynaldo to speak, I said. “It’s my fault, I wasted his time.”
Danielle paused for a moment and then noticed me.
She pointed at me and asked Reynaldo, “Who is she? Did you bring her back?”
Reynaldo glanced at me lightly and said, “She was Esmeralda ”
“Esmeralda?” Danielle instantly seemed to be lost in memories, pondering over my name.
I looked at her and said earnestly, “Danielle, I’m sorry”
Danielle’s kind eyes scanned me up and down, and after a moment, she suddenly exclaimed with joy to Reynaldo, “Is she the Esmeralda who married you? My daughter–in–law?”
“Sorry,” I said to her again, respectfully
I’m sorry I wasted Reynaldo’s time and made her wait for Reynaldo.
