Chapter 1952


    CHAPTER 1952 MEETING THEIR MATERNAL GRANDFATHER


    Coralie was really curious about what exactly Jonathan was doing that he went back on his word to


    pick her up.


    After leaving the hospital, she booked herself a room at a five-star hotel.


    Then, she made a call.


    “Trey, help me investigate Jonathan Queen of the Queen family and see what exactly he''s doing. My


    brother had once asked you to keep tabs on him in the past.”


    Trey Calnan was someone Shawn personally trained in Horington. He spearheaded a small team


    specializing in collecting information, very much efficient at his job.


    He had kept tabs on Lucian and Jonathan in the past and managed to obtain genuine information on


    them.


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Of course, it was also possible that both men could not be bothered to conceal their whereabouts.


    In no time, Trey came back to Coralie with the answer.


    “I''ve found that Jonathan Queen likely remained at Madilyn Xander''s house for a few hours and only


    left after lunch. The license te matches.” After reporting back habitually, Trey hung up the phone.


    Coralie was stunned for a long time before fury abruptly zed to life within her.


    So... I lost to Madilyn? Did she really seize advantage of the time while I was away from Horington to


    take her rtionship with Jonathan further at lightning speed? Countless wealthy heirs pursued me


    back in the north, but I could not muster the slightest interest in them all. After meeting an intriguing


    man like Jonathan, I''ve taken my rtionship with him seriously. Never had I imagined that I''d lose to


    an inferior woman with no background whatsoever.


    Her blood boiled, and she was so incensed that she opened a bottle of wine and started downing it


    sullenly.


    In the evening, Roxanne listened as Madilyn narrated the events that had happened that day. Deep


    within, she felt rather d that Jonathan did not bother about Coralie but took care of her best friend


    instead, proving that thetter upied a crucial position in the man''s heart.


    Nevertheless, Madilyn did not dare tell her about Jonathan having seen her unclothed in the morning.


    Roxanne again encouraged Madilyn at length, urging her to be more proactive instead of being


    reserved and to cling to Jonathan tightly.


    The two of them then teased one another. It was not until the triplets had returned from school that


    Roxanne hung up the phone.


    Subsequently, she phoned her father, Grant, and arranged for him to meet the children at a park.


    Grant sounded incredibly emotional on the phone, thanking her fervently, but that put her slightly ill at


    ease.


    Lucian helped the triplets take their bags and books into the mansion. On the heels of that, he told


    them to change in preparation for meeting their maternal grandfather.


    “Granddad? Why are we going to meet him, Daddy? Has Mommy agreed?”


    “Granddad never wanted us, no? I don''t want to meet him!”


    Archie and Benny''s aversion was still as candid as ever. They understood many things and had never


    seen their maternal grandfather all these years, making it clear that the man did not care about them at


    all.


    Looking at her brothers, Este followed their lead. “Since Archie and Benny don''t want to go, neither


    do I.”


    Roxanne overheard the conversation and could onlye over and exin things to them, pointing


    out that it was just a brief meeting that would not take long.


    Elias likewise coaxed, “If you all don''t like it, just have a look at him from afar. This is basic courtesy.”


    At longst, the triplets relented.


    With Lucian driving, they all headed to the park.


    Right then, Grant was busy packing everything up at a dpidated residential area in the suburbs. He


    had bought a lot of branded children''s clothes and even had three emerald pendants made for the


    triplets.


    Behind him, Winnie wore a chagrined expression. “Why did you spend so much money? Those three


    brats might not necessarily acknowledge you. Your n this time had better seed. Otherwise, you''ll


    be getting it from me. How dare you ask me to y along with you, even getting a divorce with me for


    real!”


    “What do you know? I only did so to show her in a show of sincerity. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have been


    able to approach Roxanne at all. Aren''t I doing all this for the sake of our future? If you''ve got nothing to


    do, Winnie, take some money and look for that son of yours!”


    Wrath lined Grant''s features, and he knew all too well that she had no control over him at the moment.


    After all, the divorce certificate was real though the divorce itself was bogus.


    He had finally convinced the woman to y along with him after much difficulty, and it was all for the


    sake of obtaining perpetual financial support from the heir of the Crawford family.
