Chloe wiped away her tears as she said, "Ah, it's all because my daughter doesn't know how to appreciate. But what can an old lady like me say about young people's affairs? I dare not interfere either."
"Today I saw the eldest of the Murray family get married, so I thought of giving money as a gift. I asked Lucy to take it over, but the most important thing is to take this opportunity to see my Lucy."
The latter half of the sentence, Chloe didn't lie, her purpose today was indeed to meet Lucy.
No one was taking care of her anymore, so she wanted to find Lucy, even if it was just to give her a little pocket money every month.
While the child was still young, we built a closer relationship.
Christian understood and expressed his understanding.
It is also pitiful. The child divorced, the daughter ran away, leaving only an elderly person.
Because of the daughter's fault, I dare not come to see my in-laws and I don't even dare to see my granddaughter.
Christian looked at Chloe and saw her looking confused and uneasy, which made him feel even more sympathetic.
"Then come with me this way, the young masters and misses of the Murray family should be over here."
Christian is familiar with the wedding scene and has walked through it before. Before the bride walks towards the groom, he needs to check the hem of the dress again.
The flower girl was waiting on the other side with the bride, and Miss Lucy should have been here as well.
Christian arrived at the bride's dressing room, where the staff were busy preparing. Lucy happened to be sitting on a chair in the garden, munching on a mango.
Although wearing a skirt, she had one leg crossed under her buttocks, looking very bold.
"Lucy!" Chloe exclaimed without waiting for Christian to speak.
Lucy looked up in confusion, took a few seconds to finally react, and exclaimed, "Grandmother?"
Christian heard it and indeed it was the child's grandmother.
Chloe hurriedly ran over, with a pained expression, she touched here and there, wiping away tears as she said, "Lucy, Grandma's little sweetheart!"
"Are you doing well recently? Why are you eating alone here..."
"Did you eat well? Look at you, you've lost weight!"
Lucy felt a bit uncomfortable, she slightly turned her head and furrowed her brows, saying, "Grandma, why did you come?"
Chloe wiped her tears and said, "Grandma misses you, Lucy. Have you forgotten about Grandma?"
Lucy was speechless for a moment.
She hadn't seen her grandmother for a long time and she had a carefree personality.
Grandma had once explained to her why her parents got divorced and what mistakes her mother had made.
Lucy knew that her mother had killed someone, and the ugly ghost in her sister Soul Calabash was the one her mother had killed.
So, Mom was arrested, and Lucy could understand and accept it.
Just grandma's words...
To be honest, although Lucy was neglected in her childhood, she honestly admits that both her mother and grandmother treated her well, giving her whatever she wanted and comforting her when she threw tantrums.
People are not like plants, who can be emotionless. Although Lucy seemed a bit unnatural, she still said, "Grandma, you better not come. My grandmother will be unhappy if she finds out."
Chloe sighed, turned her back, and pretended to wipe away tears quietly.
"Grandma knew, Grandma just came to see you, and she was satisfied with just one glance..."
Lucy felt a little upset deep down, after all, she was just a child.
Children's minds are always a bit tender.
Lucy, being absent-minded, blurted out without thinking, "Grandma, have you seen it? Can we go back now?"
Chloe opened her mouth.
Christian frowned slightly.
This child, compared to another child Susie, really fell far behind.
Which child would directly say to their own grandmother, "So, have you seen enough? Can we leave now?"
Did she really despise her own grandmother like that?
In the Murray family, she lived a good life, enjoying all the luxuries. However, her grandmother definitely did not live well.
Even the clothes and bags were outdated for several years, but they had to be worn to keep up appearances.
If she were a lady from a wealthy family, who would dress like this? She would be laughed at if she went out.
So Christian really sympathized with Chloe.
The old man longed to visit his granddaughter, but he was rejected by her.
The old person must have been sad and embarrassed.
"You guys chat for a while, I'll come over to pick you up later," Christian said gently to Chloe.
He turned around and was about to leave, but couldn't resist and turned back to say a few words to Lucy.
"Miss Lucy, this is your maternal grandmother, who loved and raised you when you were young. You shouldn't treat her like this."
"Each of us has a time when we grow old. Grandma misses you. Is it not good for you to make Grandma leave directly?"
"If it were you, you would also be sad, right? Your grandmother is already old, and it's really not easy. Talk to her more!"
Lucy: "..."
She didn't know what to say, for heaven's sake!
And she didn't forget about her grandmother either. She knew about the things her grandmother did, like playing with fire, meddling in her parents' affairs, and causing trouble for her grandparents.
She never thought about taking the Murray family's money for her grandmother, because it was her grandmother's and Uncle Martin's money.
But she had thought about earning money herself and supporting her grandmother when she grew up. Her grandmother had indeed doted on her and treated her well as she grew up, so it was her duty to take care of her grandmother in her old age.
Caring is caring, looking after is looking after, and there is nothing more to it.
No one knew that carefree Lucy had ever thought about these questions, not even Chloe was aware. If she had known, she wouldn't have gone through all this trouble to make such a scene.
She never knew that it was today's actions that completely disappointed Lucy, even the thought of support in her heart was gone...
