Chapter 528 Grandpa’s Wrath
The whole way there, Abraham kept coaxing Ste. After a lot of sweet–talking, she finally agreed not to go with him.
The car pulled to a stop.
Abel respectfully opened the door for Ste. “Ms. Ste.”
Ste looked at Abraham with pleading eyes.
She still wanted to go with him to find Marie. Grandpa was really scary.
The man affectionately pinched her cheek. “Go on. Be good.”
“Okay, I’m going.”
“Mm, go on.” Abraham nodded.
Ste reluctantly stepped out of the car.
The Luke family’s butler had been waiting at the front gate, already informed of her arrival. When he saw Ste step out, he hurried over and bowed respectfully. “Ms. Ste, wee.”
Ste nodded.
The butler nced at the car disappearing in the distance. “Mr. Abraham’s noting in? Your grandmother had the kitchen prepare a whole spread–all your favorites.”
Ste said, “Something came up with Marie. Let’s head inside.”
The butler nodded. “Understood.”
He gestured politely for her to go in, and Ste walked forward.
Behind her, the household staff followed at a respectful distance.
Meanwhile, in the car.
Abel said to Abraham, “Ms. Ste seemed very nervous.”

Thinking of her anxious little face just now, Abraham smiled indulgently. “He won’t cat her.” Still, she deserved a little scolding–especially after running away for years.
Grandpa was strict. Even with Abraham present, Ste would still get an earful.
He wouldn’t actually do anything to her. The old man might look fierce, but he truly cared for the younger generation.
It’s just… after running off for three years, if Ste couldn’t give a decent exnation today, she was definitely getting chewed out.
Inside the house, Ste could already hear Grandma’s voice from afar:
“Lorette just called. She said that girl Ste’s pregnant, so don’t you go yelling at her.”
<i>Mom </i><i>even </i><i>called </i><i>ahead</i><i>? </i>
Didn’t seem to be doing much good though.
She heard Grandpa’s cold snort: “Hmph. That child needs discipline. Who knows what kind of trouble she’ll causeter?<b>” </b>
His tone was harsh and angry.
You could definitely see a bit of Abraham in him.
Ste had always felt like Abraham was a skipped–generation copy of the old man–same face, same natural presence.
Plus, Grandpa had spent the most time teaching him, so not just their looks, but even their temperament matched.
Grandma started to say something, but Grandpa cut her off: “She ran off for three didn’t contact anyone. What else wouldn’t she dare to do? I really underestimated her. Used to
years and be such a sweet kid.”
Just thinking about Ste running away made the old man furious.
Whatever the reason, disappearing for so long was inexcusable.
Ste stood frozen at the entryway, too scared to go in.
She looked to the butler for help.
The butler gave her a warm smile and whispered, “The old master’s been upset these years.”

Chapter 528 Grandpa’s Wrath
She was the most pampered child in the family, and she ran off.
Any family would be mad.
Even rebellious kids need to know limits.
Ste pouted but didn’t say anything.

Grandma tried again: “Yes, yes, you’re right. But there’s a time and ce for discipline. She’s not a kid anymore–and she’s pregnant now.”
“And didn’t you always say that kids should have their own opinions? She’s grown up now. Having her own thoughts is a good thing.”
Grandpa snapped, “That’s ‘having her own thoughts‘? I say she’s still in her rebellious phase.”
Grandma had tried to defend Ste, but her words only made Grandpa angrier.
Ste’s heart clenched.
The butler tried tofort her. “He’s just worried about you. We’ve all been searching these years.”
The longer they searched and failed, the more frustrated everyone became.
Grandma said, “Alright, alright, she’s back now. Quit it. Don’t scare her again.”
“Hmph.”
Grandpa gave a sharp snort.
Grandma really was afraid he’d scare her again.
In her eyes, Ste was still terribly timid. If they scared her now…
Grandpa asked, “Whose kid is she carrying?<b>” </b>
“I’m telling you, if she went and got herself knocked up out there–don’t let her eat a bite.”
Just bringing up the pregnancy made him even madder.
Grandma replied, “Lorette said it’s Abraham’s.”
“Oh. Then that’s fine.<b>” </b>
The moment he heard it was Abraham’s, Grandpa instantly calmed down. His expression softened considerably.

“That’s more like it. I guess the girl wasn’t too out of control after all.”
Grandma said nothing.

Ste poked her little head out from the entryway, peeking hopefully toward Madam L.
