Chapter 337
โBut coincidentally, Nora told me that last night Isabelle, in order to show filial piety, specially asked someone to get a 500-year-old ginseng root and made soup for my grandfather to drink.โ
โIt was difficult to find ginseng that had been aged for five hundred years. I had just sent a piece to my grandfather, but they threw it away. Isabelle managed to get one from someone. Isnโt that a coincidence?โ
After listening to her, Winfordโs eyes had already turned cold. Yesterday, Ophelia went to the Whitakerโs villa to visit Shaun but was unable to enter. This already displeased him, but he restrained himself due to his wifeโs concern for her family. However, he did not expect that someone else would be rushing to their own demise!
Ophelia was also very unhappy. Not only was she deceived, but the most important thing was the old ginseng root. That was personally prepared by Winford for her grandfather! Now Isabelle just took it and made it seem like she had obtained it from someone else. How could she not be angry?
โDoes Lia have to handle this matter herself?โ Winford asked her.
He took matters into his own hands and directly dealt with Isabelleโs attitude, as she didnโt want to handle it herself.
Ophelia squinted her eyes, and a sudden idea popped into her mind. She smiled and swayed her agile waist, tilting her head back and said, โLet Graham go and pick up the things. Those things were carefully prepared by you and me, and each one is very precious. How can we throw them in the trash can?โ
Winford instantly understood what she had in mind, indulging in a smile, raising his gaze, and calmly giving orders: โGraham, did you hear that? Go, make sure to โpick upโ all the gifts that Mrs. Pruitt sent over, every single one of them, understood?โ
Graham was not a fool either, and he immediately laughed and said, โAlright, Mr. Winford, I got it.โ
Ophelia watched Graham leave. Hmm, she wanted to see where that 500-year-old ginseng was in which trash bin!
Graham arrived at the Whitakerโs villa. The Whitaker family did not want to see Ophelia, but since Graham was using Winfordโs name, they could not refuse to see him.
โMr. Winford?โ Shaun heard the servantโs report and was somewhat surprised. Their family has nothing to do with Sunset Vista, so why did Winford send someone over?
Helena Shaffer, on the side, suddenly said, โCould it be because of Liaโฆ that childโฆโ
Shaun fell silent immediately. Although he claimed to not care about his granddaughter Ophelia, it was impossible for him to completely ignore her in his daily life. So the fact that Ophelia got married to Sunset Vista, they naturally knew about it. At this moment, Shaun also realized that the Whitaker family and Winford had only one connection, Ophelia.
Chapter 33
โPlease come in.โ Shaun sighed and said.
Richard went to work, Xander went out for something, Freya and Lenora heard the noise and came downstairs, feeling confused. What is Graham coming over for?
Isabelle fell behind, and when she heard the news of Grahamโs visit, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, instinctively thinking of that old ginseng. No, the matter of her offering the old ginseng to Shaun is known only to the Whitaker family members. Opheliaโs side is impossible to be aware of it.
Graham came in. He respectfully greeted the two elderly people, saying, โHello, Sir Whitaker, hello, Madam Whitaker.โ He discreetly glanced at the two elderly people while speaking. Shaun had white hair, but his eyes remained clear and upright, and he carried an air of dignity, making him appear to be a remarkable old man.
