Contract Marriage With Mysterious President

Chapter 138 A Valuable Jade Bracelet

Grandpa John wasn't happy, "She's fine in the country. What's she doing here? This stubborn woman

now needs our money!"

When Halbert and Addy divorced, Grandma Eva insisted on staying with her daughter-in-law. She said

that she didn't need the money of the Carter family. And she wouldn't live with them.

However, she changed her mind. Grandpa John looked down on such broken promises.

"Dad, Mom probably missed us." Cathy tried to persuade Grandpa John.

"That's impossible! The family all went to visit her during the Spring Festival! If she comes, we would

suffer a lot." Grandpa John was clear about that. He knew his wife.

Cathy didn't know what to say. No one seemed to like Grandma Eva.

But her return was inevitable.

Apart from Grandpa John, every one of the family was standing at the door to welcome Grandma Eva.

The black Bentley eased into the yard. Halbert got off the car first, then he helped Grandma Eva out.

Jacob and William supported Grandma Eva. Richard was not here. As for Amy and Hilary, they just

stood where they were.

Grandma Eva had white hair but was hale and hearty. She did not have many wrinkles and took great

care of herself.

But she was not that kind of old people. Her gaze was sharp. When she passed Amy and Hilary, she

looked at them with disgust.

"William and Jacob are still so caring. Unlike some people, they are now too proud to be polite!" When

everyone was seated, Grandma Eva said suddenly.

William, Jacob and Sophia were pleased to hear this, but Cathy was not.

"Mom, you only have two arms. You don't need that much people to help you."

Grandma Eva glared at Cathy. She now knew why Amy was so indifferent to her. It was because of

Cathy! What a mother-in-law!

"So many excuses." Grandma Eva said.

Cathy wanted to explain, but Halbert signed her.

"She has just recovered. Just stop." Halbert said softly.

Grandma Eva came, and it was fortunate that she did not bring Addy over. Cathy felt a little better.

"Where is that old jerk? Why doesn't he come to meet me?" Grandma Eva looked around and did not

see Grandpa John.

"Mom, Dad is in poor health. The doctor advised him to have more rest." Halbert explained.

"I just came out of the hospital! And look at me! He just doesn't want to see me! That liar!" Grandma

Eva was angry.

The Carter family was big and wealthy. But Grandma Eva came from a peasant family. Her father

helped the Carter family a lot. Therefore, Grandpa John's father let Grandpa John marry her.

She pretended to be kind, but over time, her cynical nature was revealed. Thus, Grandma Eva and

Grandpa John only had two sons and a daughter. After giving birth to a girl, Grandpa John never

touched her again.

Listening to Grandma Eva, Amy felt a little sympathetic towards Grandpa John. It was really hard to live

with a wife like that.

Halbert and Cathy then took Grandma Eva to her room.

"You call this a room? You want me to stay here? What are you thinking about?" Grandma Eva looked

at the room and started complaining.

Actually, it was a clean and sunlit room. It was the best choice. But Cathy prepared the room and

Grandma Eva didn't like her.

"Mom, what's wrong with that? Just rest here. Cathy will prepare the food. William and Jacob, bring

over all of your grandma's things. Amy, Sophia and Hilary, help your grandma clean her room." Halbert

knew that his mother did not like Cathy, so he let Cathy go somewhere else.

Everyone started to do their business. Grandma Eva stopped complaining when she saw Cathy leave.

"Sophia, you are really nice and pretty. William is so lucky to have you." She liked Sophia because

Sophia was Addy's daughter-in-law. Grandma Eva did not like anyone related to that Cathy.

Amy and Hilary kept quiet and did their cleaning work.

After the cleaning, Grandma Eva glanced at Sophia and praised, "You're really on the ball. Sophia, I

didn't prepare much. Just take this." She deliberately gave Sophia her jade bracelet in front of Amy.

Sophia actually did not like that bracelet. What she wanted was Cathy's bracelet which was a symbol of

family dignity.

But Sophia hid her feeling. It showed that Grandma Eva liked her, and did not like that Amy.

"Thank you, Grandma. It is a beautiful gift." Sophia held the bracelet and showed it off in front of Amy.

Amy did not react. She did not interested in these things.

Hilary couldn't bear to see this stupid show.

"Amy, why aren't you wearing the bracelet that Mom gave you?" Hilary said this on purpose. She

wanted to remind Sophia that Amy's bracelet was more valuable. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Sophia almost threw away that bracelet when she heard this.

What? How could Amy own that bracelet? She, Sophia, was the first one to marry into the Carter

family!

Sophia stared at Amy with hate.

"It looked very valuable, and I was afraid of breaking it." Amy answered honestly. She did not know that

her bracelet was completely different from Sophia's.

Hilary looked at Sophia's face and secretly smiled. Sophia always wanted that bracelet. She would be

furious to know that it belonged to Amy now.

But what Hilary done brought a lot of trouble to Amy. That greedy Sophia would do anything to achieve

her goal.
