After they descended the plane, Terrance helped them grab their suitcases, while
Victoria only had to bring her children. Perhaps they were afraid she might get
kidnapped again, which was why several tall, muscled bodyguards stood close to her.
Those bodyguards stood on every side of her, and from an outsider’s perspective, she
and the two children seemed well protected. If someone were to try anything, they
would definitely fail. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Meanwhile, Terrance followed behind them with the suitcases. When he saw they were
about to reach the entrance, he reminded Victoria, “Miss Selwyn, Mr. and Mrs. Cadogan
will be waiting at the entrance. We’ll see them soon.”
Victoria nodded upon hearing that reminder. “Okay.”
Then, she leaned down to face her children, coaxing them, “Nicole, Nathan, did you
hear that? You’re going to meet your grandparents soon. Remember what I said to you
on the plane?”
“Of course!”
“Don’t worry, Mommy. Nathan and I will be very polite.” The two children gave her their
promise.

Then, they soon arrived at the entrance under the protection of the bodyguards.
Meanwhile, at the airport entrance, Mary pulled out a small mirror and kept looking at
her reflection but still felt dissatisfied. So, she turned to ask her husband, “Honey, look
at my makeup. Is it too cakey? Is this the right makeup for meeting children?”
Adrian glanced at her and replied, “It’s fine. The children will love it.”

Mary thought of asking for his opinion, but she instantly thought he was unreliable
once she heard what he said. “Do you even hear yourself? What do you mean when you
say the children will love it? You make it sound like you know what they’re thinking.”
Adrian sighed in resignation. “Yes, I don’t understand children’s thoughts, but you don’t
either, so what’s there to worry about?”
That’s right. Children have different tastes than grownups, and they probably don’t
know whether my makeup is too heavy. All they know is that I’m their grandmother.
What’s there to be worried about? It’s nothing.
Mary released a sigh of relief when she thought of that and felt more relaxed but soon
became nervous again. She kept away her mirror and spoke to Adrian, “I’d say Victoria
is full of surprises. She ran away for five years and secretly gave birth to two children.”
When Adrian heard her bringing this up, he looked at her and asked, “What are you
trying to say?

Chapter 433 Be Nicer to Her
“What am I trying to say? It’s all your son’s fault. He has definitely done something
wrong. Otherwise, why else would Victoria leave and raise her children abroad? That
brat. Sob. It’s such a pity that my two grandchildren… They’re definitely lonely without
their father and grandparents with them all these years. Once we see them, I will
definitely try my best to make up for the years we missed.”
Mary wiped away the tears at the corner of her eye as she spoke.
Adrian watched her exaggerated act with affection in his eyes and smiled, cooing
gently, “All right. You should save it for when you see them.”
When Mary heard that, she angrily turned to look at him. “What are you calling
exaggerated? I’m being serious, alright? Don’t you miss your two grandbabies? Don’t
you feel heartbroken for what they experienced?”
Adrian fell silent.
“I’m telling you. I’m going to get back at that brat about this matter, and you aren’t
allowed to stop me.”
“When have I ever stopped you? Haven’t you been in charge of this family since you
married me?”
Mary gave it a thought and figured that his words held merit. Hence, she pouted her
lips, not saying anything else.
Chapter 433 Be Nicer to Her
Ever since Victoria divorced Alaric and left, Mary had changed drastically. With
Griselda’s passing, Mary’s personality was not as gentle as before, and she became less
forgiving toward her son.
That was because she felt that her son had something to do with Victoria’s departure.
They were both women, after all. In a situation where both were married, a woman’s
departure meant that her husband had done something wrong.
One possibility was that the woman had found a new relationship, but Mary was there
for all of Victoria’s milestones. So, she knew exactly what kind of personality that child
had.
From Mary’s perspective, Victoria would never do something that would hurt her
marriage, so the only possibility was that her son had done something wrong. Since it
was her son’s fault, she, as his mother, was also at fault because she failed to educate
him.
Therefore, for a long time after Victoria left, Mary would feel frustrated every time she
thought about that, and whenever she felt frustrated, she would call and nag at Alaric.
Back then, Alaric was not in a good mood either and would hang up before she could
nag more than a few sentences.
He would hang up every single time she called.

Afterward, Mary found out Alaric had started drowning his sorrows in alcohol and
started feeling distressed for her son. Nevertheless, she still could not help but place
the blame on his feet. He deserves this. He did not cherish her when she was around,
so what’s the use of regretting it now? Let him deal with his suffering.
Although that was what she said, she was still secretly heartbroken for her son.
A few years later, Mary gradually forgot about Victoria. Although she was reluctant to
do so, Victoria had disappeared without a trace and did not even appear when Griselda
passed away. It seemed like they would never see each other again.
Mary gave up on her search. Then, Claudia appeared and kept Alaric company, so Mary
decided to let her son start a new relationship with Claudia. Alas, she did not expect
her son would stay so true to his feelings for Victoria and would not develop feelings
for Claudia, no matter how long she stayed with him.
Mary had entirely changed her attitude toward Claudia after what had happened
recently. Who would have guessed a nice woman like her could be so shrewd to steal
someone else’s credit for several years?
She made the Cadogans mistake her as Alaric’s savior and even used that so–called
“saving grace” to threaten Alaric into marrying her. Just thinking about that made Mary
feel chills run down her spine.
Being where they were now, the members of the Cadogan Family had seen all sorts of
Chapter 433 Be Nicer to Her
people, but it was the first time Mary had seen someone with such cunning at such a
young age.

Whenever she remembered that Victoria was the Cadogan Family’s savior and that she
raised her children all alone abroad, she would feel her heart clench in heartache. Oh,
my pitiful Victoria. She lost her mother at a young age and suffered many hardships.
With that thought in mind, Mary reminded Adrian, “Once we meet them, I won’t only
compensate my grandbabies, but I will also be nicer to Victoria.”
Once she said that, her eyes suddenly lit up as she waved in a particular direction and
hurried over. “Victoria!”
