“Grandma, you would definitely live to be a hundred years old,” I urgently spoke, my voice filled with sincerity.


    Reynaldo nced at me, his face remaining expressionless.


    Danielle smiled at me and said, “Well, may Grandma live to be a hundred, but little girl, you still need to hurry up and give me a great- grandchild. My olddy can’t wait, you know.”


    I didn’t speak.


    Even when ites to having children, Reynaldo probably only wants to have them with Kimberly.


    But Danielle didn’t know about my current rtionship with Reynaldo, so to avoid saying the wrong thing, I could only choose to remain


    silent.


    “Oh my, you two should make <b>a </b>promise to me. I know young people. are easily shy, but what’s the point of being shy in front of grandma?”


    Danielle urged me to speak.


    I remained silent.


    Reynaldo suddenly smiled faintly and said, “Don’t worry, Grandma. I will soon make sure you can hold your great–grandchild.”


    “Hehe, Grandma was waiting for you to say that. You can’t deceive Grandma, you know.”


    “Um.”


    “Alright, alright, you go downstairs and help entertain the guests. I still want to chat with my precious daughter–inw for a while.”


    “Okay.”


    Reynaldo nced at me lightly and then stepped back.


    After he left, Danielle sighed again.


    “You may think Reynaldo is sessful now, but in this family, there are still many people who can’t stand to see him doing well.”


    I nodded: indeed it was so.


    Just now. I was downstairs and you could tell by the way those people were looking at Reynaldo.


    Although they wanted to tter Reynaldo, they were also equally jealous of him.


    Danielle suddenly eximed angrily, “You have no idea how they used to talk about Reynaldo before!”


    Ever since Reynaldo married you, they couldn’t stand to see Reynaldo doing well. They said Reynaldo had no backbone and that Reynaldo marrying into your family was a disgrace to the Humphrey family.


    They also said that you and your family treated him badly, saying that you treated him like a dog and theyughed at Reynaldo in front of me every day.


    Fortunately, although my wife often made mistakes, she was not


    foolish. I knew that they were just jealous that Reynaldo married such a good wife like you, so they wanted to cause trouble.


    I choked and shook my head, “No, Grandma, actually I wasn’t that good, I…<b>” </b>


    Chapter71


    “Silly child,” Reynaldo concluded, “that is the best.”


    I knew Reynaldo’s personality very well.


    Don’t be fooled by his usual silence, in fact, his personality is very stubborn and strong–willed. If it weren’t for him liking you to the extreme, how could he agree to marry into your family?


    No.


    Danielle still got it wrong in the end.


    Under the pressure of major news media and my family, Reynaldo had no choice but to marry into my family.


    How could he possibly have liked me?


    Moreover, at that time, I had no connection with him at all, at most, we had only met a few times.


    Danielle added, “At that time, everyone in the family was mocking Reynaldo. Reynaldo told me not to pay attention to them. Reynaldo said, ‘Your family has always treated him very well.“”


    Later, Reynaldo became sessful, but they still persisted and started criticizing you. They said Reynaldo divorced you and that your family had fallen into poverty. They even used you shamelessly of clinging onto Reynaldo.


    Those people, they just have nothing better to do, can’t stand to see Reynaldo’s love life and career flourishing, really!”


    I pursed my lips, realizing that Danielle didn’t know that I had divorced. Reynaldo.


    But she didn’t believe it.


    It seems that Danielle only believed Reynaldo’s words, but Reynaldo did not tell Danielle about the financial difficulties in my family, nor did he tell her about our divorce.


    But why didn’t he exin it clearly to Danielle?


    How can he be with Kimberly in the future if Danielle misunderstands it like this?


    With a puzzled mind, I suddenly felt Danielle tighten her grip on my hand and say to me, “Girl, just focus on being with Reynaldo and quickly give me a big, chubby great–grandchild to drive them crazy!”


    I smiled faintly.


    I never made a direct promise to Danielle about having children.


    I didn’t want to disappoint Danielle with things that couldn’t happen.


    As for what Reynaldo just promised Danielle, I think he would go to Kimberly for help to fulfill it.


    Just as I was thinking, my wrist suddenly felt cold.


    I instinctively lowered my gaze and noticed a bracelet on my wrist.


    A jade bracelet of excellent quality and color, it was clearly valuable at first nce.


    I looked at Danielle in astonishment.
