CHAPTER 80: CHAPTER 80: THE OLD LADY IS AN OLD ACQUAINTANCE

The old lady’s thoughts, she could understand; after all, she was someone who had divorced and got pregnant before marriage. It was normal that she couldn’t be accepted.

"Grandma has wanted a granddaughter-in-law for a long time. Once you meet my grandma, I hope you can give me some face and acknowledge that we’re together. Otherwise, Grandma will be unhappy knowing that after all this time I still haven’t won you over."

"Acknowledge we’re together?" Seraphina Sinclair never expected Desmond Fairchild’s worry to be so refreshingly unique! Her expression became somewhat complex.

"Now the internet is flooded with rumors about my divorce. Are you really not worried that your grandma won’t be able to understand that you chose someone like me?"

"My grandma probably thinks it’s good enough that someone wants me," Desmond Fairchild replied, recalling the days when Grandma would nag him about getting married, feeling a bit of a headache.

Upon hearing this, Seraphina couldn’t help but curl her lips, recalling his secrecy about his affairs, she sarcastically remarked with a chilly tone, "Indeed, President Fairchild is cautious, always using the guise of a male public relations officer when going out. It’s normal that no one wants you, Grandma’s worry isn’t overly thought."

Although Seraphina wasn’t wrong, hearing her call him by his title made Desmond Fairchild feel vaguely displeased. He frowned and said, "Don’t call me President Fairchild from now on."

He didn’t want to be so distant from his future wife.

After hearing what he said, Seraphina asked in response, "Then what should I call you?"

Recalling Desmond Fairchild’s status, Seraphina felt a bit nervous. Had she said something wrong? Strong dragon doesn’t suppress the snake in its domain; Desmond Fairchild had influence in Bayside City, and if he suppressed her and prevented her from seeking revenge, wouldn’t it be awkward?

It seems she could never treat this man like a male public relations officer again.

Desmond Fairchild looked at Seraphina’s slightly tense little face through the rearview mirror and suddenly wanted to tease this woman.

"Whatever it was before, it’s the same now. Or if you’re not satisfied, you can call me ’husband’ in advance to get used to it."

After hearing his words, Seraphina’s face instantly flushed, feeling as if the car’s air was clogged.

What a flirtatious man! Even if he’s not a male public relations officer, he’s definitely a debauched young aristocrat!

While speaking, Desmond Fairchild had already driven the car to the old mansion of the Fairchild Family. The servants saw the young master’s car return and immediately walked to the gate to open it for him.

This was Seraphina’s first time at the Fairchild Family’s old mansion, and she was quite taken aback by the scene before her.

Although she had known before that Cloudsea Group had significant status in Bayside City, hearing and seeing in person were indeed different.

The building before her was entirely European style, the three-story villa exuding luxury; not to mention anything else, the Fairchild’s large courtyard alone could probably park dozens of cars.

Although the Sinclair Family had its glory days, in Bayside City, likely only the Fairchild Family could afford to build such a villa.

"We’re here, you can get out now." After Desmond Fairchild parked the car in the parking lot and saw Seraphina motionless, he immediately reminded her.

Upon hearing Desmond Fairchild speak, Seraphina finally reacted, promptly reaching to unbuckle the seatbelt and get out of the car.

"Mommy!"

Just as Seraphina came out of the parking lot, she saw Jude Sinclair running towards her from nearby.

Seeing Jude’s lively and bouncing demeanor, Seraphina finally relaxed, her face showing a long-lost smile.

"Mommy, are you okay? Were you alright after heading home last night?"

Not seeing Seraphina for a night made Jude feel a bit down; after all, since he was born, he had never been apart from his mother.

Although he understood that Old Mrs. Fairchild was his great-grandmother and this was his father’s home, regardless of its grandeur, the time he missed most was being with his mom.

Seeing Jude’s young face with furrowed brows, Seraphina felt a pang of sympathy and quickly reached out to smooth the furrowed lines on his forehead, speaking softly, "Mommy is grown up, do I really need you to worry? Just take good care of yourself and Mommy will be grateful."

"Oh, indeed, it seems the child is closer to his mom. Last night I tried to keep him company all night but didn’t receive such enthusiasm from him."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded not far behind Jude, prompting Seraphina to look in that direction.

She was slightly surprised to see Old Mrs. Fairchild in person.

The elderly lady looked kind and wore a smile; despite her age, Desmond Fairchild’s features faintly showed her contours, making one marvel at the power of bloodlines.

It also added some familiarity, making one feel extraordinarily warm when she squinted and looked at her.

"Girl, what are you standing there for? Aren’t you going to call Grandma?"

Old Mrs. Fairchild seeing Seraphina standing there dumbfounded and speechless, couldn’t help but feel a bit impatient.

Just now, Desmond Fairchild phoned to say he’d be bringing Seraphina home. Old Mrs. Fairchild was overjoyed, quickly getting styled and even asked Jude what colors Seraphina liked for her clothes.

"No, Grandma, hello. I just didn’t expect to be greeted by such a kind old lady."

Old Mrs. Fairchild, hearing Seraphina’s words, immediately took two steps forward to hold her hand, beaming with joy: "Girl, were you okay last night? I went to Azure Cloud Water Town one day wanting to see you and Jude, but unfortunately, I only met Jude. I’ve been wanting to meet you since, but never had the chance. And Desmond, that useless boy! So many years without dating any woman, finally got you but still acts like a blockhead..."

At the mention of this, Old Mrs. Fairchild began her endless complaints about Desmond Fairchild, making Seraphina want to laugh.

The esteemed President Fairchild hadn’t dated any girl for so many years? Even getting despised like that?

Desmond Fairchild seeing this pair of grandparent and grandchild standing at the door couldn’t help but show a gratified smile.

It seemed he truly chose the right person this time; even Grandma is exceedingly fond of Seraphina.

Under Desmond Fairchild’s guidance, Seraphina and Old Mrs. Fairchild finally ended their chat, and all of them headed towards the villa.

Along the way, Seraphina and Old Mrs. Fairchild walked ahead, both chatting and laughing.
