Chapter 1593 – The Granny’s Argument
*****“Ma'am,” Xavier said respectfully, “would you be willing to accept this small gift from Little Lola on our behalf and help us surprise the children tomorrow morning?”This time, however, the elderly woman didn't answer immediately.Instead, she quietly studied the three of them.Her gaze settled briefly on Little Lola before moving toward the colorful bags filled with stuffed toys.She remained silent long enough that Xavier unconsciously began wondering if something was wrong.‘Does she... not want to accept them?’ The thought crossed his mind almost immediately.‘Perhaps there was some rule against accepting donations, or perhaps...’Before his thoughts could wander any further, a smile of gratitude that reached all the way to her eyes appeared on the elderly woman’s face.“Thank you, little girl.” Her affectionate gaze rested on Little Lola. “Thank you for thinking about our children.”She then turned toward Xavier and Grace.“And thank you both as well.” Her voice carried un
Chapter 1593 – Grace’s Embarrassment
*****At this moment, the famous ice queen of the business world was nowhere to be seen.Standing there was simply Grace… a compassionate woman whose heart had been thoroughly shaken tonight.“You only did what anyone responsible would have done,” she said sincerely. “If anything, we unknowingly created a situation that looked suspicious. Given everything you've experienced... your reaction was understandable.”Her words carried no trace of blame.Only understanding and respect.Beside them, Little Lola suddenly spoke in her soft, adorable voice.“Uncle, big sister, and Ma'am aren't wrong.” The little girl lowered her tiny head guiltily, nervously twisting her fingers together. “It was Little Lola's idea.”She looked genuinely remorseful.“Uncle and big sister told Little Lola everyone must already be sleeping.” She sniffled softly before continuing. “Little Lola was the one who wanted to leave the presents by the door so the brothers and sisters would wake up and be surprised tomorro
Chapter 1592 – The Granny’s Reason
*****“Do people really abandon their children this often these days?”The unexpected question startled the elderly woman so thoroughly that she looked up at Grace in surprise, momentarily forgetting her own embarrassment.The heaviness in Grace's tone made it obvious that she wasn't mocking her. She truly wanted to know.Realizing this, a faint look of appreciation first appeared on her weathered face before she slowly nodded.“Yes,” she answered quietly, though that single word carried a weight that seemed far heavier than it should have.Almost immediately, an unmistakable ache surfaced in her eyes… the kind that didn't come from a single bad memory but instead from years of watching the same tragedy unfold over and over until even tears became exhausted.“The crying of an innocent child,” she murmured, her voice lowering unconsciously, “wakes me from my sleep almost once every week.”Her fingers tightened around the wooden broom.“They cry for their parents and sob until their lit
Chapter 1591 – The Granny’s Embarrassment
*****The elderly woman’s gaze swept over Xavier and Grace from head to toe, lingering on their clean appearance and the understated yet unmistakably expensive clothes they wore.That single observation only poured more fuel onto the fire already blazing inside her.Her eyes turned crimson with indignation as she thrust the long broom toward them like a spear, looking less like an elderly caretaker and more like a veteran general preparing to charge into battle.“Why?” she demanded, nearly choking on her own outrage. “Why would rich people abandon their own child? I always thought it was only those who couldn't afford to raise a child who left them at my doorstep.”“But you people...” She pointed accusingly at the couple again, her hand trembling with anger. “You have money! You have decent clothes! You look healthy! Yet you're even worse! At least poverty has an excuse. What's yours?”Without waiting for an answer, she launched into another relentless barrage.“Do you know how many c
Chapter 1590 – An Unexpected Misunderstanding
*****Neither Xavier, Grace, nor even Little Lola could process the elderly woman's accusation.For several long moments, the three of them just stood rooted to the spot, staring at her in complete disbelief as though their minds had collectively stopped working.Her words echoed over and over inside their heads.“Take responsibility for your own children, for heaven's sake!""Stop dumping them here!"The accusation was so absurd that none of them could immediately figure out where to begin correcting it.And as such, an awkward silence settled over the courtyard.The elderly woman continued glaring at the couple with unwavering conviction, gripping the long broom as though it were a legendary divine weapon forged specifically to punish irresponsible parents.Meanwhile, Xavier, Grace, and Little Lola remained frozen for what felt like an eternity.Then, almost simultaneously, Xavier and Grace turned to look at each other.Their expressions mirrored each other perfectly… half speechles
Chapter 1589 – An Unanticipated Situation
*****For a brief second after hearing Little Lola’s words, both Xavier and Grace merely stared at her, not reacting.Then, without realizing it, a complicated smile, brimming with warmth, admiration, and a faint trace of self-mockery, slowly appeared on Grace's face.She chuckled quietly before shaking her head."Compared to Little Lola..." she murmured with a soft sigh, "...I'm not kind at all."Little Lola was stunned for a second after hearing those words, then she immediately puffed out her cheeks."No!” She exclaimed with certainty,“Huh?” Grace blinked, lost.Little Lola shook her head seriously."Beautiful Sister Grace is kind."She pointed toward Xavier."Uncle is kind."Then she proudly poked her own tiny chest."And Little Lola is also kind."After saying that, she nodded with complete confidence, as though she had just delivered an undeniable universal truth.For a second, Xavier nearly laughed at how innocent the little girl was. ‘Me? Kind?’ he wondered to himself, as tho
