Chapter 295 Hanging out with them felt like a breath of fresh air After a good chat, I pulled a measuring tape from my bag to take Adah's measurements.

Gregory directed. “Ms. Webster could you also measure Ramona while you're at it?" I agreed without a second thought, "Sure." Having more people meant getting to work on more designs. I was over the moon about that Ramona waved her hand. "I don't need it" "Ramonal Gregory interrupted, convincing her, "If you refuse, wouldn't it seem like I'm playing favorites?" "Okay, you got it." Ramona conceded with a laugh.

As I finished measuring, the butler cto announce dinner was ready. However, Gregory had to leave due to an urgent phone call. Before leaving, he handeda room key.

I felt it was also tforto leave. "I should probably head out with you" "Jane," Adah said warmly, insisting, "Don't worry about him. Stay and have dinner. After we eat, Ill arrange for a driver to take you to the hotel." "You see, my grandma is very approachable, but she rarely invites people over for dinner." Gregory grinned sheepishly. "Can I ask for this favor?" I had no choice but to agree The table was laden with a lavish spread, half made up of easily digestible food suitable for the elderly ladies and the other half consisting of beef, lamb, and seafood.

Adah took the lead: “Jane, make yourself at home. Help yourself.” "Sure" I smiled obediently Maybe it was a longing for familial warmth. In the presence of such kind elders, I naturally behaved myself. Near the end of the meal, the servants brought out individual desserts.

I took a bite without thinking, only to realize something was off. I discreetly spat it out into a napkin.

Ramona caught the moment. She always seemed gentle, but unlike Adah's easiness, she was somewhat distant with strangers.

Her eyes flickered with interest, speaking todirectly for the first time, "Ms. Webster, do you not like peanuts?" "It's not that." I smiled awkwardly, explaining. Tim allergic to peanuts." Ramona's grip on her spoon tightened as she asked, “Have you been allergic since childhood?" "Yes," I replied honestly.

Ramona's gaze softened toward me, sighing. "My granddaughter is also allergic to peanuts." Linstinctively followed up. "Dorothy?"

"No, the rightful heiress of the Myers family" Adah handed Ramona a m tissue, cutting to the chase. "Lily's" been gone for ages now, and you're the only one in the Myers family who still keeps her close to your heart." "I do!" Ramona dabbed at her eyes. "She's my granddaughter delivered by my own hands. Bom prematurely by two months, so tiny, I feared she wouldn't make it That was when I learned Ramona was an obstetrician.

Adah seemed moved, too, her eyes reddening. "It's a shame, such a fate for a girl bom into a family like the Myers, yet enjoyed any of it "True." Ramona sighed deeply, a mix of affection and helplessness, "The ones who should be enjoying life aren't, and t shouldn't be are."

As an outsider, it felt somewhat awkward to interrupt. But somehow, I seeing Ramona like that I felt a pang like of empath and offered. "Ramona, they say fortune and disaster are two sides of the scoin. Maybe Ms. Myers is also living a good life now."

"Ah, let's hope your words ctrue.

Ramona clasped her hands. "All om these years, I've been ading charity work, hoping work, hoping it would somehow make up for everything and bring Lily sprotection from above." Cheater 296
