Chapter 1156
Although they were not blood-related, Margaret had raised Ralph as her own for many years, so it was difficult for her to cut him loose.
"Grandma, it’s not up to me but him.He still hasn’t thought it through and refused to return home.Let’s discuss it when he does, okay?"
He added, "It’s time for me to go to the office.Have a good rest, Grandma."
Lily came in, bringing the food as he was about to leave.
"Please take care of her." He said and left.
Lily did not hear what they were talking about but could have guessed it.
"Grandma, you must be hungry.Have some garlic bread and mushroom cream soup, but eat slowly."
Lily sat by the bed with the tray on her lap, dipped the bread into the soup, and offered it to Margaret.
Margaret wanted to take the whole plate instead.
"It’s okay.You’re pregnant.You don't have to serve me."
"Let me do it.I’m still early in my pregnancy, so don’t worry." Lily said with a chuckle.
"Stop insisting.I'll laze around when you feel better, okay?"
Margaret stopped insisting and let Lily feed her the slice of bread.
Margaret looked at her granddaughter-in-law smilingly.
After experiencing an upheaval, she changed her mindset so much that her gaze was different now.
‘I couldn't stand the sight of her before this, but now she’s become a sight for sore eyes"
Ralph had tried to make things difficult for him since they were young and even attempted to chase him out of the family the other day.
How could one expect him to let Ralph off just like that? Margaret was the only reason he had not chased that man out of the family, as he worried she could not handle the blow.
However, it did not mean he would forget everything Ralph had done and leave the score unsettled.
"Well..."
Margaret was stumped.She knew what he said was right and reasonable, but she could not bear to see Ralph suffer.
"I know you're right, and I’ve gone too far, wanting you to let him off the hook.Then can I still keep him by my side? Even if the family doesn’t acknowledge him as its own, will it be okay to take him as my foster son?"
Margaret sounded desperate.
Alexander lowered his gaze and saw one of her hands gripping the blanket.He noticed her earnestness and knew it must be difficult for her.
