Charlotte immediately w
rapped her arms around Ava, her voice dripping with affectionate playfulness, “Grandma, | know | haven't been
doing well. | realize | was wrong, and | promise to work harder from now on.”
Ava let out a soft snort, her nimble fingers opening the bedside drawer. She pulled out a delicate sachet,
carefully unfolded it, and placed it under Charlotte's nose.
The refreshing scent flooded Charlotte's senses, and she couldn't help but take a deep breath. Instantly, her
foggy mind cleared.
“Grandma, you're amazing! What is this?” Charlotte asked curiously.
Ava tossed the sachet to her. “Figure it out yourself. If you can’t, don’t callgrandma anymore.”
Charlotte caught the sachet, tied its strap carefully, and tucked it away like a precious treasure. “I will definitely
figure it out!”

Pete, who had been standing quietly by the side, smiled and said, “Since everything's settled, I'll take my leave
now.”
Charlotte looked at him and offered a gentle smile, “Thank you
so much.”
Pete chuckled, “You better start thinking about how to thankproperly. Today’s meal is off the table. Someone
here just loves to stir the pot.”

Charlotte blinked, nodding in agreement. “No problem.”

As Pete turned to leave, Ava finally put down the phone she had been fiddling with and looked at Charlotte with
interest. “What's this about? Did you have dinner with Pete?”
Charlotte nodded. “Yes, I'm really thankful for his help. It's why | offered to take him out. | told him he could pick
anywhere he wanted to go.”
Ava clicked her tongue. “Ate good food without me, huh?”
Charlotte panicked for a second before explaining, “Next time, I'll take you with me. Please don’t be mad.”
“Forget it. That boy just wanted salone twith you. He probably wouldn't wanttagging along
anyway,” Ava said with a wave of her hand. After a pause, she added, “I've watched Pete grow up. He's learned
all his grandfather's tricks. If it weren't for what happened five years ago, I'd actually love to see you two tie the
knot.”
Charlotte pressed her lips together. “Grandma, that’s all in the past. Let's not bring it up again.”
“It’s not too late to talk about it now. | can see you're thinking about a divorce,” Ava said, looking serious as she
held Charlotte's hand. “I support your decision. I've never liked Arthur. But you should fight for custody. The child
is innocent. Raising him with you might just keep him from becoming as cold and haughty as his dad.”
Charlotte lowered her eyes slightly and confessed, “Grandma, | actually chere today to tell you something.”

“I figured as much,” Ava said calmly.
Charlotte was taken aback. “You already knew?”

Ava gently stroked her hair. “Camille toldright away. It’s funny, really. Did she think I'd accept just any girl
she found? You're the only one | recognize as my granddaughter, so you don’t need to be afraid.”

In an instant, Charlotte's eyes welled up with tears, and she hugged Ava tightly.
Tenderly stroking her hair and back, Ava exclaimed with affection, “Camille is ungrateful. Ill pretend | never gave
birth to her. But you are different. | liked you the moment | saw you. That's why I'm willing to teach you those
skills. It has nothing to do with whether you're my granddaughter or not, understand?”
When Charlotte was just a little girl, Ava kept her distance, never once coming to see her. It was all because she
was Camille's daughter, and Ava wanted nothing to do with her, avoiding any closeness or contact.
But as tpassed, Charlotte learned about Ava and secretly sought Ava out one summer vacation. When Ava
finally found Charlotte, Charlotte just revealed who she truly was.
Ava was in utter surprise. “How on earth did Camille manage to have such an intelligent kid?” she thought.
Charlotte had run away with very little money, so Ava let her
stay.
The more tthey spent together, the more Ava grew
