Unexpected Marriage: She is the Sugar Mommy!-Chapter 367: Naming

When Seraphina Sinclair reconciled with him, she also said there should never be any deception in the future.

In fact, Seraphina had already guessed some of Old Mrs. Fairchild’s situation, and even if Desmond Fairchild didn’t say anything, she would eventually find out.

"Aunt Seraphina, you’re back?" As soon as Seraphina stepped into the Azure Cloud Shores Villa, Pomelo ran out happily to greet her.

"Has Pomelo been good today? Have you been behaving well at home?" Cecelia Sinclair affectionately ruffled Pomelo’s hair.

"I’ve been so good, even Chloe praised me." Pomelo beamed, rubbing against Seraphina’s chest.

She missed Seraphina terribly, having not seen her all day.

With a loving smile, Seraphina traced her warm fingers across Pomelo’s cold little face, "Go put on your cute little dress. We’re going to stay at Great-grandma’s house for a few days."

"Great-grandma?" Pomelo looked puzzled, "Who is her grandma?"

Seraphina explained with a smile, "Great-grandma is the grandma who came yesterday. She is your brother Jude’s great-grandma and yours too."

"Can Pomelo go? Will it be inappropriate?" Pomelo hesitated a little. Even though she’s young, she understands very well that she has no blood relation to Seraphina’s family.

No matter how kind they are to her, she feels like an outsider.

"Silly girl, we’re already family, why worry about appropriateness? From now on, you’re my daughter, visiting Great-grandma is perfectly normal."

Seraphina was quite aware of what Pomelo was thinking. This child had a pitiful background and was overly sensitive.

Only through continuous interaction would she gain a sense of security.

This is when Jude needs to step in.

Seraphina had realized, at home Pomelo might not always heed her words, but Jude’s words, Pomelo would definitely listen to.

Sure enough, after Jude had just said a few words to Pomelo, she obediently packed her things and went to the Fairchild old residence with Seraphina.

On the way, Seraphina couldn’t help teasing Pomelo, "You little girl, since you listen to brother Jude so much, why not marry him when you grow up?"

Unexpectedly, hearing this, it wasn’t Pomelo but Jude who blushed slightly, "Mommy, what nonsense are you talking about? Pomelo and I are just kids, how can we joke about this?"

Seraphina realized it was indeed inappropriate to say such things in front of two children and quickly apologized, "I’m sorry, I didn’t think it through, it won’t happen again."

But at that moment, Pomelo shyly clasped her fingers and answered softly, "If brother is willing, when Pomelo grows up, she would like to marry brother and be his bride."

Hearing this, Seraphina laughed heartily, "Pomelo is truly adorable."

Jude’s face turned even redder, but he didn’t say anything further.

The family arrived at the Fairchild old residence. Seeing her great-grandchildren naturally made Old Mrs. Fairchild happy, and she immediately called the two children to her side to ask about their well-being.

Though Pomelo wasn’t a Fairchild by blood, she didn’t feel neglected.

This greatly eased Pomelo’s previous tension.

Taking advantage of the moment, Seraphina quickly pulled Desmond into a room, asking him softly, "Did you check? Is there something wrong with grandma’s health?"

"Yes, I checked." Desmond furrowed his brows, his expression a bit serious.

"What’s the result?" Seraphina held her breath, the atmosphere instantly tense.

Desmond’s face was grave, and he remained silent in front of Seraphina.

Seeing his expression, Seraphina had already guessed most of it, "Is the result not good?"

"It’s Alzheimer’s disease." Desmond sighed heavily, his mood sinking to rock bottom.

He never thought grandma would suffer from this illness, and the doctor told him there’s no cure for it.

Even Desmond found it hard to accept at first.

Much less Seraphina.

Upon hearing this news, Seraphina was stunned on the spot, mumbling to herself, "How can this be? Hasn’t grandma always been healthy? How could this happen?"

"Grandma’s health has indeed been good these past few years, but Alzheimer’s isn’t caused by physical weakness. As long as someone is aged, they can develop Alzheimer’s."

Desmond had been puzzled too, but after asking the doctors, he learned it was this way.

Seraphina gazed intently at Desmond, "So what do we do now? Is grandma aware of her condition?"

"Yes." Desmond forced a bitter smile. If she weren’t aware, she wouldn’t try to hide it.

"How do you treat this disease? Are there any special symptoms?" Seraphina didn’t know much about Alzheimer’s, only that it’s dementia, but she was unclear about the specific symptoms.

"Grandma is currently in the mild stage, medication can control it. For now, there shouldn’t be major issues. But over time, when medication no longer works, not only will her memory deteriorate rapidly, but she might also not recognize people anymore."

Desmond pressed Seraphina’s shoulder gently and spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Seraphina’s face turned even paler, "How can this be? Isn’t there any cure? You know so many people, are there no more skilled doctors? Money isn’t an issue, we must cure grandma."

"I will arrange for it, don’t worry." Desmond assured Seraphina not to think too much about it.

Seraphina nodded slightly, worrying wouldn’t help right now, it could only be dealt with one step at a time.

Desmond’s family of four returned to live at the Fairchild old residence. Naturally, the old lady was overjoyed, although unaware of their intention, she still kindly hosted them.

"Is Pomelo just called Pomelo? What’s her surname, what’s her name? Doesn’t she have a proper name?" Old Mrs. Fairchild found it odd. While Pomelo’s name was cute, she was at the school-going age, she couldn’t always be called Pomelo, she needed a proper name.

Desmond and Seraphina had discussed this matter, but they hadn’t mentioned it to Pomelo yet.

So although Pomelo is just a child, changing her name still requires her consent.

Before Seraphina could speak, Pomelo chimed in sweetly, "Great-grandma, since Pomelo became aware, she hasn’t had a name. If great-grandma doesn’t mind, you can give Pomelo a name."

Pomelo’s words made Old Mrs. Fairchild even more fond of her, quickly comforting, "It’s okay, child, from now on, this is your home, I’m your great-grandma. Since you said it, I’ll give you a name, shall I?"

"Okay! Pomelo will listen to everything great-grandma says." Pomelo gazed expectantly, unwaveringly at Old Mrs. Fairchild.

She was finally going to have her own name, a feeling indescribable surged in her heart.

She felt both touched and pained, and suddenly, her eyes turned misty, almost tearing up.

"From now on, she’ll be with..."

Before Old Mrs. Fairchild could finish, Seraphina spoke up, "Naturally, she’ll be with Desmond."
