Chapter 32 Something Is Fishy With The Two
Charlie sensed trouble upon seeing how Xavier’s complexion rapidly darken.
“What did they say?”
“The best solution would be to have Auri apologize,” Xavier said with a grave expression. “The PR team hired by the Leedon family is quite famous in Ja to turn white into black, and no matter what the truth is, they can tamish Auri’s reputation surely.”
Charlie knew that what Xavier said was the truth. Although he was at the bottom of the entertainment industry, he was well aware of how deep the waters of the industry ran. What met the eye was not always the reality,
Unexpectedly, his beloved younger sister, who they had cherished since childhood, was not only bullied by others, but now she was also being slandered
They would rather endure mistreatment themselves than let Auri suffer any injustice.
“Let’s think of another solution. The mere thought of Auri being wronged pains me.” Charlie’s eyebrows were almost knitted together in distress.
Xavier’s lips were tightly pressed as he looked at Charlie and said, “If my friends are saying this, it means that there are hardly any other ways except for Aurelia to take the initiative to apologize. Of course, we can turn the tide
Upon hearing the words “Quigley Group’s PR team“, Charlie’s expression turned even more unpleasant.
How could this be possible!
This is harder than reaching the heavens!

Aurelia bought a bouquet of flowers from a florist on her way.
When she arrived at the ward with flowers in hand, Mabel was engaged in conversation with an elderly gentleman.
Upon seeing Aurelia arrived, Mabel couldn’t wait to introduce her to the old man. “This is the granddaughter–in– law I was just talking about. Isn’t she beautiful? She has such a wonderful temperament. Matthew is truly blessed.”
“Auri, why did you buy flowers again? Aren’t they heavy? I have been feeling that the hospital room is too plain these past few days. You placing flowers
“This is Old Mr. Quill, the one I mentioned yesterday. He wants you to visit his collection room to see those old items he has collected.
Aurelia stepped forward, and addressed Elijah politely, “Old Mr. Quill.”

chuckle.
Aurelia found Elijah somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him before in some news report. The Elijah portrayed in the news was very stern, intimidating
However, the man before them was kind and benevolent. His eyes did not hold that kind of awe– inspiring aura that shook all directions. He was very approachable.
Aurelia placed the flowers into the vase, her palm–sized face always adorned with a gentle smile.
“Once I’m discharged from the hospital in a couple of days, I’ll bring Auri to your house,” said Mabel.
Elijah nodded, his gaze kindly settled on Aurelia. “Then, I will present you whatever you like from my collection.”
“Old Elijah has plenty of treasures, so don’t be shy when the time comes. Just tell Grandma what you like, and I’ll have him give it to you.” Mabel said to
It was evident that the two elders had known each other for a long time. They were the kind of old friends who could converse freely with each other.
Aurelia looked at them, her smile radiant as she nodded. “Thank you, Old Mr. Quill.”
“You don’t need to be formal with him. Well, he used to adore good old Hannah and always hung out around her. Mabel felt that she might be getting old of reminiscing about the past
The events that occurred in her youth, felt as though they happened just yesterday.
Who would have thought that life was so short, and in the blink of an eye, she was already in her old
age.
Elijah watched Mabel speak with a smile. When he heard the name Hannah, a hint of tears seemed to glimmer in his eyes. However, it was only for a moment, and not even the slightest trace of emotion could be discerned. He said, “In my life, I’ve never been afraid of anyone
“What did she have for you to fear? She gave us so much with her tender heart. All I wished for was for her to be happy genuinely. However, she told me that during those y
As Aurelia listened to the two elders mention Hannah, a sour sensation tingled at the tip of her nose. She truly missed the dear old lady deeply.
In her heart, Hannah was even dearer to her than her own grandmother from the countryside.
Hannah seldom spoke of the past, and she never asked her about it. Often, Hannah would gaze at the distant mountains, lost in thought for an entire da
At that time, she guessed that Hannah must be very lonely. She wanted to accompany Hannah, to let her know that she too had a family.
“Young lady, has good old Hannah ever mentioned me before?” Elijah suddenly asked Aurelia, his eyes. filled with a clear sign of expectation, subtly glis
Aurelia shook her head, speaking honestly, “She rarely talks about the past. She said that some people and some things are meant to be kept in one’s h forget them in this lifetime.”

Elijah paused for a moment, then nodded somewhat absentmindedly. “Yes, that’s good enough as long as they are not forgotten and kent in the heart.”
Mabel’s eyes were also somewhat red. “She had a way of seeing everything so clearly.”
Following their discussion about Hannah, the two elders didn’t bring her up again. After a few words, Elijah left. As he was leaving, he invited Aurelia to v
Hearing that, Mabel glared at Elijah, and told him not to compete with her for Auri.
Aurelia couldn’t help but laugh as she watched the two elders bicker like children.
When Matthew entered the ward, what he saw were two people who couldn’t contain their smiles.
Inside the ward, a warm and comforting ambiance filled the air.
Matthew’s gaze lingered for a moment on Aurelia’s charming face which was adorned with a smile. Then, he turned to look at Mabel. “Grandma.”
Mabel’s fondness for Aurelia was as great as her disdain for her own grandson.
Auri was indeed endearing, her delicate and gentle demeanor simply invited affection. One couldn’t help but to treat Auri well wholeheartedly
She looked at her grandson, and noticed that as he grew, his personalities became more crooked. His handsome face rarely adorned a smile. Oh boy. H
Mabel snorted through her nostrils.
Feeling the clear disdain directed at him, Matthew remained unfazed as he was accustomed to such
treatment.
“Auri has been chatting with me and Elijah for quite a while, she must be thirsty by now. Just peel an apple for Auri Mabel said to Matthew.
Matthew raised an eyebrow. What? Am I supposed to peel an apple for her?
“Grandma, I just had some water and I’m not thirsty. I can’t eat an apple right now, but when I feel like eating. I’ll peel it myself,” Aurelia hurriedly said.
She dared not let Matthew peel an apple for her.
“They weren’t that close after all.
After hearing Aurelia’s words, Matthew, who was just about to reach out for the apple, withdrew his hand.
Their eyes met unintentionally.
Just as they were about to moved away at the same time.
Suddenly, they felt the piercing gaze of Mabel on them, as if she had sensed something.
Thus, their gazes were locked together.

They had to avoid any suspicion in front of others, but they were a real married couple, and there was no need to hide anything in front of Mabel.
Upon seeing the exchange of glances that seemed to be filled with a certain kind of playful mischief between the two of them, this observation quickly sp look.
