Chapter 251 Brainchild
Caroline smiled and replied, “I don’t have full-time helpers, Mia. They come twice a week to ensure that the guest rooms and the yard are taken care of.
Due to my paternal family experience, I don’t allow them to enter my family’s bedrooms. Our laundry is done by the hotel housekeeper. I take care of my loved ones.
The Grant family was very wealthy, my grandfather was the CEO of the Grant Group, and my grandmother was the Deputy CEO. My grandfather wanted my grandmother to be a housewife, but she refused.
When my dad was five years old, my grandfather divorced my grandmother because he felt that everything was done by a helper. So, he felt that the helper catered to his needs more than my grandmother.
He then married the helper, who was my grandmother’s cousin. My grandmother tried to save her marriage by asking her aunt to intervene. However, my grandmother was told that her cousin was already pregnant.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Avery hugged her mother-in-law, but she didn’t know what to say because her mother-in-law’s grandmother had been betrayed by her relatives.
Mia looked at Caroline and said, “Sorry about that, Caroline. Your grandmother’s cousin had a black heart. Some people are heartless and ungrateful. Was she really pregnant? Did their marriage last?”
Caroline shook her head and replied, “No, she was not pregnant. They wanted my grandmother to give up. After they got married, my grandmother’s aunt moved to her daughter’s mansion with her family.
They were married for many years, but they were not blessed with children. Since the company was my grandmother’s brainchild, my grandfather failed to take the company to greater heights.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
After the divorce, my grandmother started the Ford Group from scratch, and she became the most respected woman in the business world.”
Mia and the others were happy that Caroline’s grandmother didn’t allow her husband to destroy her life. Instead, she became stronger.
At that moment, Avery’s phone started ringing. She excused herself, then she said, “Honey, are you looking for me?” Xavier smiled and replied, “Sweetheart, please tell Mom that the Ford family has arrived.” Then they hung up.
Avery looked at her mother-in-law and said, “Mom, the Ford family has arrived.” Caroline smiled brightly and said, “Let’s go and greet them.”
When they came out of the lift, Caroline heard her younger sister saying, “My handsome nephew, I wasn’t going to come, but my sister told me that you married the most beautiful girl in the world.
So, I have to come just to meet her. Where is she? Was my sister lying to me?” Caroline told Avery to hide behind the pillar, then she laughed out loud and said, “Good afternoon, lovely Caia. How are you, baby sister? I was joking with you.”
Caia pouted her mouth and said, “Daddy, big sis is bullying me. I was supposed to submit my thesis, but I had to beg my Professor to give me an extension because I wanted to meet my gorgeous niece.” Caia was doing PhD in Economics.
Mr Ford’s eyes lit up when he saw his eldest daughter. He hugged and kissed her and said, “How are you, my lovely daughter?
Please apologize to your sister.” Caroline was beaming with joy and replied, “I am well, Daddy. How are you?” Her father indicated that all was well with them.
Then she hugged her mother and her brother, Reece. Her mother smiled brightly and said, “My beautiful daughter, who are these lovely girls?”
Caroline smiled brightly and replied, “Dad, Mom, this is Bridgette Taylor, my brother-in-law’s wife.”
Caroline’s mother smiled brightly and said, “You are so beautiful, Bridgette. Congratulations on your marriage to Keith.” Then they kissed her and hugged her. Bridgette smiled sweetly at her and thanked her.
Caroline smiled and said, “This is my friend, Mia Shelton. She brought her family with her from Australia.” Mrs Ford smiled brightly and replied, “What a lovely child. I have never been to Australia before.
Please take me with you when you go back.” Then Mia was hugged and kissed. Mia smiled brightly and said, “Nice to meet you, Mrs Ford. I will surely take you with me when I go back.”
Caroline looked at Caia and said, “My beautiful daughter, please come and greet your grandparents.” Then Avery walked to the living room smiling.
The Ford family was stunned when they saw Avery. She was beyond gorgeous. Avery smiled brightly and said, “Good afternoon, Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Reece, and Aunt Caia. Are you well?”
Grandpa Ford came back to his senses and replied, “Good afternoon, my granddaughter. You are stunning.” Then Grandpa Ford kissed her on both cheeks.
Grandma Ford hugged her tightly and said, “You are so beautiful, you deserve my grandson.” Uncle Reece kissed his niece on both cheeks and said, “Nice to meet you, my stunning niece.”
Caia was dumbfounded. She thought her big sister was exaggerating when she told her that Xavier’s wife was the most beautiful girl she had ever seen. The girl in front of her was breathtakingly beautiful.
When Caia looked at Avery, she was sure that she was in high school. She took Avery’s hands and said, “You know I thought my sister was lying about your beauty. I haven’t seen anyone so beautiful before. Are you a model, Darling?”
Avery shook her head and replied smiling, “I am a doctor, Aunt Caia.” Caia was so shocked and asked, “How old are you, Sweetheart?” Avery told her that she was nineteen years old.
Grandpa Taylor smiled broadly and replied, “Caia, my granddaughter in love, completed her medicine degree within three years with cum laude. She is the best Neurosurgeon in the country.”
Caia looked at Avery and asked, “Do you mind being my daughter?” Her sister shook her head and replied, “No, Caia. She is my daughter.” Caia smiled and said, “My sister is stingy.”
Caia looked at her nephew and said, “You have a gorgeous wife, my handsome nephew. I like her a lot. I cannot wait to see your babies.” Xavier smiled at his aunt and thanked her.
Later, Xavier looked at the Shelton twins and said, “Let’s get some fresh air.” Then he took them to the car showroom.
When Ethan and Logan saw the luxury cars from different automobile companies, their eyes nearly popped out of the socket.
Xavier looked at Logan and asked, “Brother-in-law, please let me know if there is a car that you like. I will deliver it to you as your eighteenth birthday present.”
Logan smiled broadly and replied, “I will let you know later, Brother-in-law.” Two hours later, he took them to his tree house. They were very impressed.
Logan looked at the lavishly decorated tree house and asked, “Did you build this house, brother-in-law?”
Xavier nodded his head and replied, “I built it with my grandfather when I was six years old. I did the rest when I was twelve years old.”
Ethan looked at his brother-in-law and said, “Brother-in-law, we have not been in a tree house before. Do you mind if we sleep here?”
Xavier smiled and replied, “I don’t mind, Ethan, but you have to ask permission from your parents.” The Shelton boys were over the moon. Ethan made a silent prayer thanking the Lord for breaking up Jordan Bennet and his beloved sister.
