Chapter 365 âYour grandfather is still downstairs. Tell me honestly: How is your relationship with Xavier?â
Men were always careless about this kind of thing.
But Mrs. Taylor had been down this road before. She could see that although the two respected each other and were not that close.
Zeta was stunned, not expecting her grandmother to ask about this. Mrs. Taylor took her hand and brought her to the dressing table. Then, she opened a wooden box and took out a bracelet. âThis bracelet was given to me by my grandmother. It was originally intended for your mother...â Thinking about it, she was a bit reluctant.
When she was young, there was a bit of conflict between her and Zetaâs mother, her daughter inâlaw.
After a long time, they got over it. And she loved Zeta, her granddaughter, very much. After thinking about it, she still gave her this bracelet.
âI donât know how many more years I have left. There are many things we cannot bring with us after death. Now, the only thing that I am concerned about is your wedding.â Not expecting her to say such things so suddenly, Zeta could feel her eyes turn red. âDonât say that, Grandmother. You will live a long life!â As she was speaking, she leaned on her grandmotherâs shoulder. Mrs. Taylor patted her head lovingly and sighed. âYou are already a grownup; you are not a child anymore. It is very normal for humans to die eventually. You are a doctor yourself, so . you should learn to face death.â
âNo.â Although Zeta was a doctor and had seen numerous births and deaths, she had never had the experience of a loved one dying.
The moment she thought that her grandparents would leave her one day, her heart ached. She was not willing to let this happen. She said stubbornly, âYou will definitely live a long life.â Mrs. Taylor sighed, âSilly girl... No matter what, as long as you live a good life, I will have no regrets even if I were in the underworld.â âDonât say that, Grandmother!â Zeta suddenly got annoyed. She was very repulsed to hear such words. âI donât want to hear it!â
Mrs. Taylor did not say anything. She stared at Zeta with her cloudy eyes. âWhen your grandfather and I are still around, we still have the say. Tell us if Xavier bullies you, okay?â
Zeta was taken aback. She instantly understood that they saw how she interacted with Xavier just now.
âGrandmother...â Zetaâs eyes were getting watery. She was the treasure that her family held in their hearts, yet she was compromising with Xavier. Was this not problematic?
Zeta was a bit distracted after coming back from Mrs. Taylorâs room. When she saw a man appearing in her room, she was shocked.
âWhat are you doing here, Xavier?â.
She closed the door and walked in. The manâs face was a little grim. Sitting beside the bed, he did not respond. She did not know what she had done wrong that had made him angry, so she asked subconsciously, âWhatâs wrong?â
He glanced at her. His gaze was devoid of emotionâit was even a little cold. Then, he pushed the laptop to her. âWhat is this?â She was still a bit confused. She took a step forward. When her eyes fell on the screen of the notebook, she froze. She hurriedly stepped forward and closed the laptop. âHow can you snoop around other peopleâs stuff!â
She raised her voice and said angrily, âForget the fact that you entered my room without telling me, but why are you peeking at my privacy?â âAm I?â He was incredulous. âZeta, donât forget that you are my fiancée!â
