Journey to Happy Ending

Chapter 1524 Sensible Side Of Michelle (Part Three)

"So, you mean that you crashed into her car and didn't even offer to pay for what you had done?

That… that doesn't sound like something you would do," Cynthia said looking at her husband. The little

boy's words intrigued her. She raised an eyebrow at her husband to ask. Cynthia wanted to know what

exactly happened. Jonathan was never one to be short of money. So, why didn't he offer to pay that

woman for the problem that he caused?

"No! We paid her! Grandpa wrote her a 50, 000-dollar check to have her car repaired. But that woman

was greedy. She wanted more. Of course, we wouldn't agree. That's why grandpa glared at her to

make her leave," Justin continued his narrative. Her grandson was more excited than usual. Maybe it

was because it was his first time to experience something like this and come across a woman who

wanted to rip money off his intimidating grandfather. How ridiculous! Such a situation seldom

happened, so Justin was thrilled to be part of something fascinating.

"Oh, I see. I think she saw how very generous your grandpa was. That's why she wanted him to pay

her more. After all, if a slight scratch can get her 50, 000 dollars, she would be a fool not to try to rip

him off," Cynthia nodded in understanding. She finally understood what exactly happened, and now

everything made sense. Cynthia knew her husband didn't care much about the money he had, so he

might have been willing to give her more to repair the car. But if, as Justin described, the woman was

greedy, she would have annoyed him enough to make him treat her that way. She couldn't help but

think, 'Some women nowadays are really shameless. All they want is money.'

"Yeah, I think so, too, grandma. Hey, do you think that woman was interested in grandpa?" the boy

asked hesitatingly. He might be young, but he was smart and had a wild imagination. No wonder

everyone loved Justin.

"Well, you two can discuss the matter all you want. But I am not joining you. That's it! I'm going to get

myself out of this mess," Jonathan said. He looked at his wife with knowing eyes for several seconds.

They had been a couple for so many years and knew each other well enough. Of course, he knew

Cynthia was only going along with Justin in teasing him. But he was not going to say this out loud. His

wife could do anything she wanted as long as she was happy. After all, he was very secure in the fact

that his wife knew how much he loved her. She would never doubt Jonathan simply because of Justin's

mischievous words. So, let them talk if that was what would make them happy.

"Why grandpa? Are you guilty?" Justin quickly asked. Seeing his grandfather head to his room, Justin

became a little anxious. Unless Jonathan stayed and listened, everything he'd been saying would go to

waste. That was the reason he couldn't let his grandfather walk out.

The old man turned and held Justin by the shoulders. "Little guy, don't try creating a conflict between

your grandma and me. We are unbreakable because we love each other so deeply that you can't even

imagine how much. So, save it." His tone was somewhat severe to make the boy understand. Being

the boss of the famous Mayfly, Jonathan quickly saw through what Justin was doing and had figured

out his ploy now. It was apparent to him that his grandson was only trying to get back at him for not

allowing Cynthia to play with him the other day, so he wanted to embarrass his grandfather in front of

his wife. But it was something Jonathan would never allow. Frankly, both he and Cynthia knew what

Justin was trying to do and would never fall for his act.

"All right," Justin sighed. "You caught me." There was a look of frustration in his eyes. After hearing

Jonathan's words, the boy wrinkled his nose. He knew it! He would never win against his grandfather.

But at least he tried.

Cynthia broke into laughter. "Come one, little guy. It's time for dinner. I bet you're already hungry," she

invited Justin. It amused her to watch the interaction between Justin and her husband. The boy could C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

sometimes be very cute. But she and Jonathan had been through so much. They even went through

some life-and-death situations. Of course, they had had their share of ups and downs, but because of

their love for each other, they overcame these challenges. So sensitive words would hardly break them

apart.

"We don't need to wait for Daddy and Uncle Luke?" Justin asked. He raised his head to look at his

grandmother while following her to the dining room. The boy didn't expect his father and uncle to miss

having dinner with them.

"No, we don't have to wait for them. Your daddy is having dinner with a client. And Uncle Luke will be

joining him," she explained. Holding Justin's hand, Cynthia led him into the dining room. It felt like she

was back in the days when her son was as old as Justin. Unfortunately, holding Edward's hand when

he was very young rarely happened. She didn't have a good relationship with her son as he was

growing up, which was why they had always been distant as if they weren't mother-and-son. But that

was all behind them now, because everything was all right. Cynthia had made up with her son, and

their relationship now was much better. She couldn't be happier with her life. A loving husband, an

intelligent and successful son, a sweet daughter-in-law, and a beautiful grandson, all these made her

feel like the happiest woman on earth.
