When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster Chapter 161: How Adrian Lancaster Got Injured

Eliza raised her eyes, "Dad, because I trust Adrian’s work ability, he can manage the company perfectly well without my concern. Besides, it’s always good for won not to get involved in politics."

This left the old man speechless.

But since Grandpa wanted to talk to her today, there were so things he wanted to say—

"What about Faye? She married Adrian, becoming your daughter-in-law! So why, in your eyes, is this girl dispensable?"

"Dad, Adrian’s marriage, he probably hasn’t figured it out himself." Eliza hit the nail on the head, "You arranged it like this, there might be changes in the future, you know?"

"..." Grandpa was very angry but restrained.

"This kind of unstable marriage isn’t worth my ti to pay attention to!" Eliza determined, this marriage won’t last long, "I don’t like Faye! No chemistry."

"Nonsense!" Grandpa was angry, "Who says it won’t last?! As long as I’m alive for a day! He dares to try divorcing!!"

Knowing that the old man was emotional and upset today, Eliza did not argue with him.

"Dad, I don’t like her, but I haven’t interfered either." This was the only thing Eliza could do.

Facing the old man’s gaze, her heart was as calm as a lake, not thinking she was wrong, only if soday Faye posed a threat to her, she would oppose.

For now, she treated Faye like a transparent person, unworthy of her notice.

Grandpa scolded her a few more tis, still concerned about Adrian’s arm injury, after all, it was negligence on the guardian’s part.

The woman did not retaliate, in her heart, she deeply respected the old man, loving the house and its crow, she really loved Caleb a lot.

Therefore, she treated the old man as her own father.

"Enough, enough, you can go." Grandpa finally waved her off in annoyance, "Faye is a good girl, I hope you can like her too! My judgnt isn’t wrong."

Regarding this matter, Eliza didn’t express her opinion.

What she couldn’t do, she usually wouldn’t promise.

But after leaving the study, mories kept pulling her back.

How did Adrian have scars? And such extensive burns?

As she racked her brains to recall, suddenly, a scene flashed in her mind—

"Mom, this dumpling is so delicious, would you like to try one?" He held a bowl, obediently chasing after her.

She coldly replied, "I don’t eat."

"Mom, it’s really delicious! Nanny Warren made it for , why don’t you just try one!" At that ti, he had already lost favor but was still trying hard to please.

"I said I don’t eat! Take it away!"

"Mom..."

Young Adrian, carrying a bowl of soup dumplings, persistently chased after her, always hoping to get her attention, believing if she ate a dumpling, she would love him.

But at that mont, Eliza felt a deep-seated aversion to him, during that period, her heart was also in despair, on the brink of collapse.

And so, she waved her hand—

"Eat eat eat! All you know is eating!! Get lost!"

The whole bowl of freshly cooked dumplings was directly flung onto his arm!

At the ti she saw his painful expression, but he didn’t cry, not even a sound.

So she assud the dumplings weren’t hot, and swiftly left!

Eliza returned to the shrine and stood before the Buddha, the scene repeatedly surfaced in her mind.

Her expression appeared calm, but there was already a ripple in her heart.

Before Adrian turned five, he was her jewel, she would take him to amusent parks, let him ride horses and shoot arrows, fulfill all his requests, all but fetch stars from the sky for him...

She loved him more than her own life.

But, in his fifth year...

Eliza thought of those past events, she coldly closed her eyes, the hatred in her heart!
