Chapter 217: Falling for Slander
Ella didn’t say much. As for Grandma Davis, she didn’t have a particularly good or bad impression of her. Grandma Davis wasn’t as kind as family, but she wasn’t as malicious as Brianna either.
She was just an ordinary old lady. This visit was surely spurred on by someone stirring the pot, causing her to rush over without even making a phone call, right?
"Oh, Mrs. Harris, can you go upstairs and bring down the old phone on the desk?" Ella had thought of visiting Grandma Davis the next day, and it wasn’t for show. She didn’t hate her just because she was Robert’s mother.
After all, Isabella’s poisoning had nothing to do with Grandma Davis.
Plus, she was a mother who had lost her son, which was pretty pitiful. And sometimes, Grandma Davis could be quite reasonable. Ella’s impression of her was gradually improving.
Before long, the taxi dropped Grandma Davis at the villa’s entrance. Ella went out to greet her. The cab driver gave Ella several looks, but sensing Eric’s cold gaze and strong presence, he quickly left without lingering.
"Grandma, you’re here! Come on in and have a seat. It just so happens that today’s my birthday. Your timing is perfect!" Ella said with a light smile, reaching out to take Grandma Davis by the hand.
Grandma Davis gave a cold snort and, with a dark expression, walked inside.
Seeing how luxurious the villa was, Grandma Davis was both shocked and unsettled. After sitting on the sofa, the other guests tactfully moved to the small bar to have a drink.
