The Soft-Hearted Wife of Mr. Big Shot-Chapter 262: Elder Grant’s Rambling

"Of course I’m satisfied, extremely satisfied."

Leo slightly curled his lips, and his smile was particularly deep.

He was very satisfied.

The gift Holly gave him was a shop selling small items, and the decoration inside looked particularly romantic.

Most of the things sold inside were related to couples, mostly in pairs: couple dolls, couple pillows, couple pendants, couple pajamas, couple clothes...

All related to couples.

Holly used this shop to express her love for him, and Leo was well aware of this, feeling particularly joyful.

"I want this shop to open up all over the world."

Holly blinked lightly and said seriously.

The shop’s name was simple: S♡L.

Leo smiled without saying a word, just looking at Holly with tender eyes.

This shop narrated the love story between them; she wanted thousands of people to witness her happiness.

"Our happiness will continue on and on."

Leo pulled Holly into his arms and spoke softly, his eyes full of affection.

Their happiness would continue on and on, they would always be happy.

"Brother, I want to choose my own wedding dress, is that okay?"

Holly playfully blinked and slowly spoke.

She wanted to choose her own wedding dress, to keep an element of surprise for Leo, and she felt that certain things like a wedding dress were best chosen by herself.

"Sure, pick several sets, we’ll need them for the wedding photos."

Leo nodded in agreement.

He initially thought of having someone design the most beautiful wedding dress for Holly, but since she wanted to choose herself, he could have one less designed.

"Oh, don’t have someone design it, I’ll choose myself."

Holly seemed to see through Leo’s thoughts, looked up at him, and slowly said.

She knew Leo well enough to guess what he was thinking.

"...Okay."

Leo was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.

His little thoughts had indeed been seen through by Holly.

The two chatted idly about the wedding arrangements, Leo always seeking Holly’s opinions, and as always, her preferences were the most important; nothing else was that significant.

The doorbell suddenly rang, and Holly froze, seeing who was at the door.

"Grandfather, what brings you here?"

The person who came was indeed Elder Grant, accompanied by The Grant’s Butler, carrying some things.

"Just came to see you two."

Elder Grant, getting on in years, looked slightly hunched. He was usually seen sitting, but standing now, it was particularly clear.

"Grandfather, come in, have you eaten yet?"

Holly invited Elder Grant in warmly.

"Not yet."

Elder Grant responded.

He didn’t use WeChat or understand those things, and he learned about Leo and Holly’s marriage certificate from Sean Grant.

Without a second thought, he came directly to Leo’s place.

This kid, getting married is such a big deal and didn’t even tell him.

"Grandfather, what brings you here?"

Seeing Elder Grant, Leo was completely taken aback, not understanding why he came.

"You brat, you got your marriage certificate and didn’t tell me, were you planning to hide it from this old man?"

Elder Grant, seeing Leo, directly tapped him with his cane, his tone carrying a bit of indefinable anger.

His grandson got married, but this old man knew nothing about it.

If he were against it, Leo hiding it would be understandable. But he was actually very pleased and supportive, and yet Leo still didn’t tell him.

He really felt quite angry.

"Ah, grandfather, I forgot at the time, was planning to tell you later, how did you find out?"

Leo, belatedly realizing, indeed hadn’t told Elder Grant.

With all the excitement, he had forgotten many things.

"You think this old man can’t keep up with trends, doesn’t use WeChat so knows nothing?"

Elder Grant, without further ado, grabbed Leo’s ear. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

He was holding onto a bit of anger, he just couldn’t comprehend it.

Holly stood aside, watching, and couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle softly.

"Grandfather, I was wrong."

Leo admitted his fault, and Elder Grant finally let go.

That evening Elder Grant stayed for dinner; the meal was cooked personally by Leo, filling the table abundantly.

"The first time eating a meal cooked by my grandson."

Elder Grant sighed and said.

Ever since he was young, Leo hadn’t stepped into the kitchen. He received the best education and enjoyed the best resources, not wanting to step into places with heavy kitchen smoke.

After meeting Holly, this kid learned to cook a big meal, and the taste was quite good.

"In the future, let Leo cook for you often."

Holly used serving chopsticks to add food to Elder Grant’s plate, curling her lips slightly as she spoke earnestly.

"That won’t be necessary."

Elder Grant shook his head.

"Having it once is satisfying enough. My Leo has truly grown, he really is different from before."

Elder Grant’s gaze lingered on both Holly and Leo’s faces as he spoke slowly.

In the past, he feared suddenly leaving, leaving Leo all alone.

Now he wasn’t afraid, with Holly by Leo’s side, he could leave without worry.

The Grant Family, although a large family, bustling with people, wasn’t necessarily everyone one could confide in, and not everyone related by blood was definitely the closest or the one to trust.

The meal concluded amid Elder Grant’s ramblings; after the meal, he left.

Leo and Holly invited him to stay overnight, but he insisted on leaving, leaving the couple with no choice but to see him out.

"Grandfather might not have much time left."

Standing at the door, Holly watched Elder Grant leave and slightly turned to look at Leo, speaking softly.

Yes, indeed, there wasn’t much time left, as everyone eventually faces departure.

Even if she healed his body, Holly knew clearly the state of Elder Grant’s health.

She didn’t want to say things that would upset Leo, but it was a fact that had to be acknowledged.

"I know."

Leo lowered his eyes, with a fleeting expression of sadness.

He knew, he understood everything.

Grandfather wasn’t one for words usually, but today he talked a lot, which Leo could perceive.

Birth, old age, illness, and death are the constants of life. Some can speak lightly of these, but when they happen to those close to you, it is hard not to hurt, hard to let go.

"He can make it to see our wedding."

Holly confidently stated.

She couldn’t keep Elder Grant alive indefinitely, but she could extend his life a bit longer.

Extending his life for a month or two was within her capabilities.
