Claimed by My First Love’s Brother Novel

Chapter69 The gloom between Reynaldo's eyebrows instantly receded . He didn't look at me again , he just turned around and pushed the door Just as the servant opened the door , he saw him and exclaimed with joy , " Madam , it's Mr. Reynaldo , Mr. Reynaldo has returned . " As the servant's words fell , an old lady , leaning on a cane , excitedly approached . " Reynaldo , my eldest grandson , you have finally returned . " Reynaldo hurriedly went to support her .

" Sorry , Grandma , I came back late . " Reynaldo said , helping his grandmother Danielle to sit down on the sofa . I endured the pain in my knee and followed along . Today is Danielle's 80th birthday . Danielle's hair was gray , but she looked fine and in good spirits . I used to think that Reynaldo was a black sheep of a wealthy family , disliked by everyone in the family .

But at this moment , as I looked at Danielle and saw the kind and loving look in her eyes , I realized that she truly cared for her grandson . Without exaggeration . Danielle was his most important family member But I used to mock the person he loved the most . No wonder I said those things about his grandmother back then , he . who had always been gentle and virtuous , looked at me with such cold and resentful eves . " You , you deserve a beating !

Today is my S0th birthday , and you actually arrived so late ! " Danielle pretended to angrily tap Reynaldo's back of the hand . The servant interjected . " Yes , young master , you have always prioritized matters concerning the old lady , let alone such a big event like her eightieth birthday . Why did you come back so late ? " You didn't know , the old lady has been waiting downstairs for you all along . She even said . " If you don't come back , this banquet won't be allowed to start .

" Without waiting for Reynaldo to speak , I said . " It's my fault , I wasted his time . " Danielle paused for a moment and then noticed me . She pointed at me and asked Reynaldo , " Who is she ? Did you bring her back ? " Reynaldo glanced at me lightly and said , " She was Esmeralda " " Esmeralda ? " Danielle instantly seemed to be lost in memories , pondering over my name .

I looked at her and said earnestly , " Danielle , I'm sorry " Danielle's kind eyes scanned me up and down , and after a moment , she suddenly exclaimed with joy to Reynaldo , " Is she the Esmeralda who married you ? My daughter - in - law ? " " Sorry , " I said to her again , respectfully I'm sorry I wasted Reynaldo's time and made her wait for Reynaldo . I'm sorry for my previous attitude towards her . She was such a kind and gentle old grandmother , and yet I still mocked her .

Esmeralda , you were really out of line ! I secretly blamed myself in my heart , and the inner guilt grew stronger and stronger . Just as I was feeling extremely guilty , Danielle suddenly pulled me to sit beside her . She smiled kindly at me and said , " Oh , my silly daughter - in - law , why apologize to grandma ? A man should wait for his own wife . " I stared at her blankly . What happened ? Does Danielle still not know that I divorced Reynaldo ?

And from the way she looked , it seemed like she didn't dislike me . What happened ? Danielle lightly tapped the back of my hand and looked at Reynaldo , saying , " Alright , just say that you were late because you were waiting for your wife , and Grandma will forgive you . " Reynaldo smiled and said , " Thank you , Grandma . " He paused for a moment and then said , " You have always wanted to meet her , haven't you ? I brought her here .

" " Okay , okay … " Danielle kept holding my hand , her eyes filled with kindness and joy . It can be seen that she liked me very much and was very satisfied with me as her daughter - in - law . But I was so terrible to Reynaldo , and I had already divorced him , why is Danielle still …. I looked at Reynaldo in confusion . Reynaldo , however , suddenly got up and said to me casually , " I'll go get some fruits . You can keep Grandma company and have a chat . " " Oh , okay , sure .

I nodded blankly , watching his departing figure , filled with confusion in my heart . Danielle teased me , " Look at you , Reynaldo just went downstairs to get some fruit , and you can't bear to let him go ? " " No , I didn't . " I blushed and lowered my head . Danielle laughed again and said , " Young couples like you should stick together , but since it's my first time meeting you , there are many things I want to say to you .

So , I can only ask you to accompany this old lady a little longer " " No , Grandma , not at all . I enjoy being with you , " I said sincerely . Nowadays , in the Humphrey family , perhaps only Danielle and Winston treated me well .
