Chapter 971 -974: Birthday Gathering (2)
“Grandma, sister is right, Paul loves you the most, Paul wants Grandma to hold him!”
Charles Taylor didn’t listen to anyone except Rowena Gray and Milly Gray.
Now that Rowena wasn’t here, he listened to Milly.
Milly had long ago taught him words to ingratiate himself, and she was planning to find an opportunity later to have Charles Taylor complain to Grandma.
He would say the children missed their mother, but unfortunately, their mother had been framed by villains and locked up.
Although Milly no longer dared to covet Aidan Lucas, she still hadn’t given up on using him to her advantage.
She knew the weight that Grandma held in Simon Taylor and Emily Taylor’s hearts. If the grandmother spoke up, Emily would surely get Aidan Lucas to help and get Rowena out.
Then, she could take the opportunity to reveal Lily Redington’s affair and get rid of that woman with ulterior motives as well.
“Very good… our Paul is so considerate. Our Paul is truly incredible, so sensible at such a young age. In the future, he will definitely be able to carry on and expand the Taylor Group!”
The grandmother beamed with joy, and everyone else followed suit with laughter.
Even Emily genuinely felt happy for her big brother.
When Simon was young, he was busy taking care of her and Dominic Taylor, as well as managing his career. After his ex-wife’s death, he indeed neglected his personal life.
Now, it was not easy for him to have a child later in life.
Everyone was in high spirits except for Emma Shaw, who sat among the crowd with a smile, yet her heart was not pleased.
She had given Simon Taylor a son and a daughter, yet somehow, the hearts of The Taylors were so biased that they couldn’t find their way.
She knew she wasn’t a decent person and had offended quite a few people in the past.
Her relationship with Emily had deteriorated, Dominic was disappointed in her, and other relatives had endured a lot of indignities from her in the past, so they were unwilling to speak up for her.
But even so, Grandma really shouldn’t be like this. n𝚘𝚟𝚙u𝚋.co𝚖
Emma Shaw never dared to offend this old lady from start to finish.
Moreover, the children she bore were also the flesh and blood of Dominic, yet these people didn’t mention them in the slightest.
Listening to Grandma just now, it seemed like she planned to leave the entire Taylor Group to Charles Taylor.
If everything went to Charles Taylor, then what would become of her two children?
While Emma Shaw was pondering whether she should bring up her two children studying abroad at this moment, she heard grandmother suddenly ask Emily.
“Oh right, Emily, where is your grandson? Wasn’t he going to make a special trip back from B City to celebrate your birthday? How come I haven’t seen him?”
Elderly people really love children.
Emily’s grandson was also her great-grandson, and she was even more eager to see him.
“Oh, Ben… he was just here a moment ago.” Emily craned her neck and took a look around, but didn’t see Ben’s figure anywhere.
She immediately understood in her heart that her grandson must have found this place too noisy and gone somewhere quiet.
But she couldn’t tell the old woman that her grandson thought they were talking too loudly.
For a moment, she found it almost impossible to maintain her smile.
Just then, a voice suddenly came from within the crowd, “Emily, Ben was just asking me for directions, he said he was going to the bathroom. This place is too big, and I’m afraid he, being just a child, might get lost. Maybe I should go and look for him.”
Emma Shaw took the opportunity to stand up from the sofa and head for the door.
Emily breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Emma Shaw was helping her out of the situation.
Although this sister-in-law was power-hungry and liked to take advantage of small gains, Emily was quite surprised she was willing to help out at a critical moment.
She smiled subtly and said to her grandmother, “Auntie, the child probably got lost. Emma has gone to find him and bring him back. He’ll be here to see you soon.”
“There’s no rush. I just wanted to see my Favored grandson. I’m not trying to criticize, but he’s not even five years old, and you all don’t seem to be keeping a careful watch over him. It’s worrisome if such a small child goes out alone and gets lost.”
“Not at all!”
Charles Taylor snuggled in the old woman’s arms, speaking defiantly with childish indignation.
“That’s because Young Master Charlie is too dumb!”
