Chapter 708: 708. Stew soup for him to nourish his body_1

"Come sit by Grandma."

Old Lady Jones was clearly very happy as she patted the seat beside her and beckoned Elly Campbell to sit down.

Elly obediently walked over and had barely sat down when she heard the Old Lady gesture with her chin towards Island Master Jones, who was busy in the kitchen, and whisper,

"Seeing you two reconcile makes Grandma so happy."

She held Elly’s hand and said, "Adam has been without his parents since he was a child. He had to become sensible far earlier than other kids his age and take on heavy responsibilities sooner. As a result, he’s become quite a loner, never really liking to have too much to do with others since he was young..."

As the Old Lady talked about Adam as a child, her tone inevitably revealed a touch of heartache.

"If his father hadn’t passed away so suddenly, he wouldn’t have become so cold. Back when others his age were still playing, he had to take on such a large company.

Grandma’s health wasn’t much help, and I couldn’t assist him much. Now that he has you by his side, even in such a short period, Grandma has seen a complete change in his temperament, sometimes even a bit of child-like behavior.

Grandma knows it’s all because of you. You’ve given him the purest love and the promise of a beautiful future. Only you can make him happy for the rest of his life.

As long as he’s happy, Grandma can die in peace."

Elly felt choked up by the Old Lady’s words and felt more pity for the little boy who lost his father at six and was heartlessly abandoned by his mother. Likewise, she grew more resentful towards Daisy Thompson, that heartless and cold woman.

Now that woman had the audacity to look for Adam; she wouldn’t let her get another chance to hurt her Island Master.

The Old Lady didn’t know Daisy Thompson had sought out Adam. Worrying that the woman’s presence might agitate the Old Lady, Elly didn’t dare bring it up in front of her.

"Grandma, what are you saying, talking about such unlucky things? You’re still young, let’s not talk of life and death."

Elly held the Old Lady’s hand and said, "Didn’t I tell you? I’m going to give you another great-granddaughter. You need to keep yourself well. Adam and I won’t know the first thing about raising children; we’ll need you."

As soon as the Old Lady heard about a great-granddaughter, she burst into delighted laughter.

"Grandma is almost 80, and still young? Yet, I really do wish to look after my future great-granddaughter myself. You two better work hard."

The old lady’s words made Elly blush, but she didn’t shy away from the topic, instead lowering her voice, she said,

"Yeah, we’re working on it."

"Hahaha, good, good, good..."

The Old Lady was very happy as she patted Elly’s hand, saying,

"When we get back, I’ll have Gloria stew some nourishing food for Adam to have a good nourishment."

Elly: "..."

It was at this moment that Adam, who had just come out of the kitchen and hadn’t yet taken off his apron, seeing his grandmother chatting so happily with his wife and hearing the Old Lady’s words, couldn’t help but join in—

"What do I need nourishment for?"

Of course, it’s for the kidneys...

Elly added silently in her mind but didn’t answer aloud, instead looking at Adam with a look that was somewhere between a smile and not.

The Old Lady just smiled, paying no mind to her grandson’s puzzled look.

But this did not prevent Adam from using his powerful imagination; seeing the expressions of his grandmother and his wife, he easily figured it out.
