Chapter 428
“Carrie, how can you drop your cutlery at dinner with Grandpa? Where
are your manners?” Shannon lectured Carrie with a long face.
“That’s enough. It’s just cutlery. Must you yell at the child?”
Nigel had a problem with Shannon because Carrie was his precious
granddaughter.
Shannon gripped her fingers under the table. She could be blamed for breathing in the presence of the old man.
“Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I’m finished with dinner.”
With her cheeks burning in shame, Carrie kept her head down and bit
her lips as she left the dinner table in a hurry.
Justin stared in contemplation at his sister’s receding figure while
falling into thought.
Bethany was delighted to get even with Carrie.
‘You should stay an invisible dummy, Carrie. You didn’t have to
endure the humiliation. But that’s what you get for trying to get with
my man. Open your eyes and see who is Mom’s and Dad’s favorite

Nigel blinked and asked in bewilderment, “I thought Ryan was into
Anna.”
Gregory, Shannon, and Bethany made a face.

“Doesn’t he like Anna? I might be 80, but I can read the room. Ryan. was all over Anna at my birthday celebration.copy right hot novel pub
