Chapter 770

Little Rose was startled. Although she did not want to admit, it was difficult not to admit that Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master were definitely not up to par with Gregory Graham.

She hesitated for a moment and finally said the truth, “N-No.”

Madam Graham laughed without minding.

She let out a sigh and said, “Yeah, they aren’t his competition at all, and Harrison’s now old. It’s clearly easy to see who will be the future heir of this huge Graham Corporation. As a stepmother who never took care of him when he was young nor lived with him, the bit of affection he has for me may easily be less than any random servants here.”

“Based on this situation, when Harrison gets even older or isn’t around anymore, how do you think the three of us will be living the rest of our lives?”

Little Rose was completely stunned.

She could only see what was in front of her and was dissatisfied with Gregory’s attitude towards Madam Graham.

However, she never thought far about all these.

Madam Graham shook her head and let out another sigh.

“Did you think I would gladly come all the way to my love rival’s territory, look at all the things she left behind, take care of the son she left behind, plus allow my pride, ego and face to be stepped on the ground?

“It’s not that I like it, it’s just that I don’t have a choice. The Graham family is going through a difficult time but at least there’s someone who’s able to support the family from behind.

“If even he’s not around, it’ll really be the end of the Graham family. If the Graham family’s finished, we will be finished too. This is what it means to be bound together for good or ill.”

As she spoke, her eyes grew darker and she said with a low voice, “Adding to this, Gregory’s someone who shows gratitude. One day if we were to fight for an inheritance, even if we never showed him any grace, as long as we have shown gratitude on the surface, he wouldn’t treat the three of us too harshly. Do you understand now?”

Little Rose froze.

She never thought that these would be Madam Graham’s thoughts deep down in her heart.

She looked down reluctantly, seeming a little terrified and dissatisfied.

She said quietly, “It doesn’t seem like Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master have no chance, why do you need to make yourself suffer this way...”

Although her voice was really soft, Madam Graham heard everything she said.

She raised a brow and asked, “Am I really suffering?”

Ah! How could this be suffering?

If her two sons really had the chance to inherit the Graham family, she would naturally be fine. If they were not able to, just being on the good side now would help with her in the future.

This was like trying to get both the fish and the bear’s paw. She did this to give herself double protection, so how could this be counted as suffering?

However, she decided to keep these words to herself without mentioning them to Little Rose.

Little Rose was just a maid who only looked at things on the surface. She would forever search for whatever benefits she could get in front of her.

Hence, there would not be any benefits if Madam Graham were to continue talking.

Madam Graham shook her head and stopped talking.

Suddenly at this time, a car’s engine sound traveled from outside.

She froze slightly and asked, “Who returned home with a car?”

Little Rose froze as well and said, “I’m not too sure myself. Young Master’s still in his room and never left.”

She paused a bit and said, “Maybe it’s Mr. Osborne? The only people who could drive in and out of this chateau would be the both of them.”

However, Madam Graham shook her head.

“No, Mr. Osborne just gave us dinner and went to the garden behind. I saw him walking there with my own eyes, so it definitely wouldn’t be him.”

She paused for a second and instructed, “Little Rose, go out and take a look at who that is.”

Little Rose nodded and went out quickly.

She returned immediately within a minute.

Her expression did not seem too good.

She ran to Madam Graham’s side and whispered, “Madam, It’s a young woman.”

Madam Graham was startled.

A woman?

Gregory already had a woman?

Her heart suddenly tensed up by the thought of this. Her heart that was once calm suddenly became nervous.

She wanted to be friendly and real towards Gregory but that did not mean she was willing to wait and see Gregory get married and have children.

Furthermore, her two own sons did not have any children till now.

The position of the Graham family’s first grandson should not be easily obtained by someone else.

As she thought, she stood up instantly.

She said, “Go see who that is.”

As she spoke, she walked out of her room too.

Little Rose read the situation and quickly followed.

On the outside, Vickie was just about to return from her day out.

She went out today to deal with some affairs. This was because Mr. Osborne mentioned she could use any of the cars in the chateau so she drove one of the cars out.

Actually, it was not anything special. She just handed out the ten thousand dollars bank card that was given by Mr. Osborne to Jennie.

She knew that Jennie was a hostess in a club. Her monthly salary was really low. It was not only exhausting but most importantly, it was dangerous.

Jennie was different from her. Vickie had lost everything, to the point where she would be willing to sacrifice her own life.

Even if someone wanted to take advantage of her, Vickie would have sold them off before they could even do so.

Jennie, however, was different.

Jennie was a well-mannered and honest girl so Vickie did not want her to go down the wrong road. She did not want Jennie to be bullied but she could not be by Jennie’s side all the time protecting her nor watching her. The only way was to quickly make her change her job and leave the place.

No matter whether it was a change of job or lifestyle, both would not work out without money.

Therefore, Vickie requested ten thousand dollars from Mr. Osborne and then passed it to Jennie. This was because she remembered Jennie mentioned previously that she wanted to open her own fashion boutique shop.

Although ten thousand dollars was not a big amount, having that money would be enough for her as capital to open a small shop.

The shops here were not that expensive. Even after paying the rent and deposit with ten thousand dollars, she could still buy lots of stocks.

However, Jennie had to depend on her own abilities to keep walking on this road.

Vickie just wanted to help her but did not plan to hold her hand while walking forward. A person should be responsible for his or her own life in the end.

Therefore, Vickie only gave her the money, explained the reason why and did not say anything else.

Initially, when Jennie heard this, she still refused to accept the money.

This was because she knew that ten thousand dollars was not a small amount based on Vickie’s situation. This was too much and she could not accept.

Thus, Vickie said to take this as borrowed money. Jennie could just return it back to her if she made money in the future.

Jennie accepted the money reluctantly after listening.

After accepting the money, Jennie naturally asked Vickie where she got the money, where was she working and so on.

Vickie naturally prepared her answers to respond to her questions too.

Vickie only told her she was living at a friend’s place and was helping out a friend for some matter. Regarding the money, it was just a salary she could get in advance so Jennie should not need to worry at all.
