Chapter 1816 Catching Up Words couldn't describe Julia's excitement. Especially after so much had happened, Gareth and Elisa still came to visit her together. But what was even more touching was yet to come.
Suddenly, a person appeared behind Gareth. Julia was dumbfounded when she saw it was Bella, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Bella walked up to Julia and hugged her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"It has been so long since | last met you. My body was too weak, so | couldn't fly to your wedding at that time and sent Elisa as a representative. Later, | heard your husband turn out to be a sc*mbag..." A lump rose in Julia's throat. She had watched Bella grow up, so she felt exceptionally sorry for her.
Bella patted Julia's shoulder to comfort her. "It's okay, Grandma. Everything has passed." Julia nodded. "Why did you only come and visit me now?" Despite the complaining tone, Julia's expression was loving.
Bella chuckled and apologized, "I've moved to Bayswe, Grandma. And I'm working in Elisa's company now. I'll come and visit you more often." "Really?" Bella nodded earnestly. "Of course!" "What great news..." Julia's eyes brimmed with tears of joy. As an elderly person, she most hoped for the company of the younger ones.
Elisa supported Julia in walking toward the dining table and said, "Bella is competent. She landed a substantial client not long after joining the company. The contract will soon be signed. Once everything is confirmed, she'll get a promotion. We're gathering today to celebrate her achievement. Let's eat while talking, Grandma.” Julia praised Elisa for being thoughtful while holding Bella's hand. As for Gareth, he was left behind.
His gaze had never left Elisa. Although Julia did not pay attention to him, being surrounded by his loved ones, felt awesome.
When they were about to take their seats, Gareth quickened his pace to pull the chair out for Elisa. Then, he sat next to her.
Elisa thanked him softly, and the two whispered into each other's ears.
Julia and Bella exchanged glances that were tinged with a hint of teasing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLater, Julia asked Elisa and Bella, "What have you guys been up to? | haven't seen you guys for quite a while. Elisa, are you together with Gareth now?" Gareth sensibly chimed in, "Grandma, please stop asking. We're not in a relationship for now." Despite Gareth's remark, the look in his eyes said otherwise, and Julia was experienced enough to tell it.
She darted a profounding glance at the two, understanding it was already considerable progress between them and she should let nature take its course.
After dinner, Julia continued chatting non-stop with Bella and Elisa. Gareth sat aloofly across from them, acting to read a newspaper, but his eyes were glued to Elisa's face.
Time passed quickly. When Julia finally realized it, it was already past ten at night.
She rubbed her temples and said, "Oh, look at me. | got too excited and forgot about the time. Why don't you stay here tonight? I'l have the servants prepare the rooms."
