Chapter 1194
After arguing for a while, they finally realized that Celeste had been standing all this time. Her grandmother hurriedly said, “We’ve been talking so much Steven, hurry up and order the food. Letti must be hungry, right?”
Celeste forced a smile, I’m good, I’m not too hungry”
Her grandmother gently said, “Come here, sit next to me, let me have a good look at you.”
Celeste, feeling a bit restrained, walked over and was pulled to sit between her grandmother and Hiram.
Her grandmother studied her face. Maybe she saw her own daughter in Celeste, and her eyes welled up with tears
Celeste felt touched, but not to the point of crying
She was different from this family. She was taken good care of by Caitlyn since she was young, and for over twenty years, she didn’t know she was adopted; she hadn’t experienced the pain of losing a loved one.
But the Hann family and the Garcia family had witnessed the deaths of their child, their daughter, and their wife. They had experienced the pain of parting with a loved one
So when Celeste appeared in front of them, they were more likely to lose control of their emotions
Celeste was touched, as if she had suddenly filled a void in her emotions.
Her grandmother held her hand and asked softly “Letti, how have you been these years?”
Celeste lowered her eyes and said softly, “My mom, I mean, my adoptive mom treated me very well I didn’t suffer”
Her grandmother sighed, “She had a tough life too, but now she’s at peace. In a few days, take us to the cemetery to see her want to thank her personally
Celeste nodded.
“Move aside, let me talk to Letti”
Her grandfather squeezed in and handed Celeste a bank card, “Letti, this is the money I saved for over twenty years.” He whispered, 1 saved more for you than anyone else.”
Sheldon Hann was taken aback, “Dad, why did you steal my line?”
Sheldon Hann also took out a bank card, “What am I supposed to say now?”
Hiram smirked, taking out a bank card from his pocket, “Did Steven tip you guys off about what I was going to give?”
Celeste and Steven fell silent
A moment later, three bank cards were shoved into Celeste’s hand
She was worried that the elders might think of her deceased biological mother when they saw her and that there might be some resentment towards
her
But that wasn’t the case. They were careful not to hurt her feelings, and no one brought up that incident.
in their eyes, a child was a continuation of life, not a “killer” who “caused the death of a loved one.
Celeste pursed her lips, put the bank cards on the table, stood up, poured a glass of wine for herself, and said softly, “I would like to make a toast to you
all ”
After Celeste finished her drink, she noticed the surprised looks on everyone’s faces and felt a bit embarrassed.
It was Sheldon Hann who reacted quickly. He coughed and said, “Just like my sister when she was young!”
He picked up his glass, “Come on, I’ll drink with you”
Hiram was very excited and quickly picked up his glass, “And me.”
Just as Hiram was about to speak, a female voice sounded at the door, “I knew you couldn’t resist drinking.”
Celeste turned around and saw Janis standing at the door
She was elegantly dressed and looked refined and intellectual
Seeing everyone looking at her, Janis gently called out, “Mr. Hann, Mrs. Hann, long time no see.”
