    **Chapter 586: Love is Perishable**


    The abrupt change in conversation sent Finn reeling, his mind struggling to adjust.


    He bit down gently on his lower lip, a habit he had developed when caught off guard. “Why?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper,den with confusion and a hint of desperation.


    The olddy’s demeanor shifted, her expression transforming into one of unexpected gravity. Her gaze drifted out toward the open courtyard beyond the office windows, the serenity of the evening contrasting sharply with the tension in the room. Her voice, though calm, carried a weight of experience. “When you married Tess, it was because she loved you. And now, as you stand here divorced and yearning to win her back, it’s because you love her. But back then, your love wasn’t strong enough; you pushed her away at every opportunity. Even under my pressure, your actions were merely obligations. But Tess? This time, no one ispelling her. If she no longer loves you, then every effort you make will be futile.”


    Her words struck Finn like a physical blow, knocking the breath from his lungs. Hisplexion drained of color, and the rhythmic pounding of his heart filled his ears, drowning out all other sounds.


    “Grandma, she used to love me so fiercely. She pursued me for years! How could it… how could it just vanish in such a short span of time?”


    Finn’s voice trailed off, choked with emotion as he battled the bitterness rising in his throat. He felt as if he were standing on the edge of an abyss, the ground crumbling beneath him.


    Julia observed him in silence, her heart aching for her grandson. Finally, she exhaled a soft sigh, the sound tinged with sorrow.


    The lines around her eyes deepened with concern as she reached out, cing a gentle hand on his shoulder. “Finn, love is a perishable thing. It withers away when it’s nurtured with disappointment.”


    Finn swayed slightly, as though the very foundation of his world was shifting.


    Julia pressed on, her tone taking on a more practical edge. “When Roxanne arrives, I will be watching closely. If Tess can sit there and witness another woman cling to you without so much as a flicker of jealousy or emotion… then even my intervention would be futile.”


    She straightened, her gaze now fixed on her grandson, who sat behind the massive desk, a figure of both strength and vulnerability.


    In her eyes, Finn had always been extraordinary—sharp,posed, and driven to an almost relentless degree. Even after severing ties with the Shaws, he had carved out a ce for himself in Aetheris through sheer determination. Yet, she had never seen him so unmoored, not even once. And now, all of this turmoil was for a woman he had once been hesitant to marry.


    A bittersweet irony tugged at her heart. Love, she mused, is perhaps the most perplexing riddle life has ever devised.


    With that thought, she resolved to seize this moment to craft a gift for her beloved great-granddaughter, La.


    As a great-grandmother, she felt a profound sense of duty. Even if Tess chose not to reconcile with Finn, La would always be her great-granddaughter. Julia would cherish her as family, no matter the circumstances.


    The mere thought brightened the heavy atmosphere that had enveloped Finn’s office. Her frail but graceful figure seemed to lighten, her steps quickening with purpose. There was a spark of excitement dancing in her eyes.


    “La, my darling, your great-grandma is on her way!”


    —


    That evening, the long-abandoned Lock family estate in Aetheris glowed with a vibrant array of lights, a stark contrast to its usual solitude.


    Tess had just stepped outside, eager to check on the progress of the brooch Connor was crafting for her, when she spotted him arriving in person.


    His warm smile was afort, and he held up an exquisitely packaged jewelry box, the corners adorned with delicate emeralds, pearls, and diamonds, creating a harmonious blend of ssic elegance and contemporary ir.


    “You came all the way here yourself?” Tess eximed, blinking in surprise, a swell of warmth blossoming in her chest.


    “Didn’t want to keep you waiting,” Connor replied, his eyes bright with anticipation. “Here, take a look.”


    He handed the box to her, and Tess epted it, shaking her head in gratitude. “I trust your work implicitly. But I need to hurry—it’s getting dark. Drive safely.”


    A quick nce at her watch confirmed her urgency; she was cutting it close to the time she had promised Julia. With a sense of quiet determination, she moved swiftly.


    Connor nodded, watching as she climbed into a cab, the vehicle disappearing down the road.


    The sky still held thest remnants of twilight, hues of purple and orange mingling in a breathtaking disy. Connor sighed inwardly, his gaze dropping to the small nicks and cuts on his fingertips. A wry smile tugged at his lips, a reminder of the price of creativity.


    Even as a seasoned veteran in the design world, he still managed to bleed for his art.


    He brushed his thumb over the rough patches of skin and climbed back into his car. But after a moment’s pause, he decided to swing by Evermount Heights to check on La.


    Meanwhile, at the Lock family estate, a conspicuously modified, diamond-dusted pink sports car roared up the drive, its engine echoing like a thunderp.


    By the time Roxanne stepped out, Julia was already seated in the indoor conservatory, savoring her tea.


    “Mrs. Shaw!” Roxanne chirped, breezing past the line of house staff, her usual arrogance evaporating the moment sheid eyes on Julia.


    With syrupy sweetness, she dashed forward, wrapping her arms around the elderly woman.


    Julia’s face softened into a warm smile, her hand lovingly patting the girl’s hair, a gesture that was both affectionate and subtly polite. “Roxanne, don’t tell me you snuck out again without letting your family know?”


    Her voice was teasing, but her knowing gaze left little room for denial.


    Roxanne stuck out her tongue, a yful grin spreading across her face. “You already know, Mrs. Shaw! Why tease me about it?”


    Julia chuckled softly but chose to say no more, until she felt a sudden drop in temperature behind her.


    Turning slightly, she wasn’t surprised to see a tall, cold figure standing there, rigid and imposing like a cier.


    Roxanne followed her gaze, and when her eyesnded on Finn’s sharply defined face, her cheeks flushed a deep crimson.
