Chapter 1140: Served on a silver platter
[ZHU ANCESTRAL HOME]
Dominic sat on the chair while Grandma Zhu was still in the rocking chair. He arrived five minutes ago, but Grandma Zhu hadn’t said anything to him. He leaned back on the couch, checking his wristwatch.
’I’ll only stay here for another ten minutes,’he thought, knowing Ivy was outside with Butler Fu. He wouldn’t hear an end of it if he got out of here earlier than fifteen minutes.
Dominic snapped his eyes to the rocking chair where Grandma Zhu was. Another deep exhale slipped past his nostrils.
"Grandma, how are you?" he asked, and obviously, he got nothing from her. "It’s been a hectic week for me in the minister’s office. The meetings aren’t half as bad as the ones I used to have during my tenure in the company."
He paused, keeping his eyes on Grandma Zhu. "About Axel... he’ll come around. Basti and Miracle will visit you with Mom and Dad sometime this week. They’d been wanting to visit you, but it’s been a little tricky."
"How was Silas?" After another minute of silence, Grandma Zhu spoke.
"He is... doing fine."
"Dominic, your grandmother has made a lot of bad decisions in the past," she said. "But that doesn’t mean I don’t recognize my own family."
