Chapter 464 Meeting Wyatt again
During the later years of his life, his grandfather spent most of his time sitting in a rocking
chair and indulged in reading newspapers to pass the hours.
Marilyn was in the yard watering the flowers. As Josie arrived, Marilyn’s hand trembled
slightly as she exclaimed, “Josie!”
“Marilyn.”
Startled by the sound, Grandpa quickly set aside the newspaper and walked out. “Young
lady! Why didn’t you tell me you were coming? I could have arranged for someone to pick
you up. Did you come here all by yourself?”
Josie’s nose twitched slightly. “Yes, that’s right. The car could only be parked halfway up
the mountain, so I had to walk the rest.”
Grandpa’s heart ached as he quickly took the gift from her hands and ushered her inside.
Once Josie sat down, her priority was to examine her grandfather’s medical records,
checking if he had attended his follow-up appointments. After confirming everything was

“Where on earth is Dexter?” Grandpa exclaimed.
“I’ve left the Russell group, Grandpa,” Josie said, her nerves subdued. “I now run my not
far from our old home. I’ll be able to visit you more often.”
Grandpa seemingly nodded. He reached out and gently patted Josie’s hand, a hint of
tenderness in his eyes. “Marrying into our family has brought you so much hardship. I
apologize for that.” Grandpa had known about her hardship all too well.
Adorning her wrist was a mesmerizing jade bangle, a delicate masterpiece gleaming with
vibrant green hues. She never failed to wear the jade bangle her grandfather had given
her, and today was no exception.
Casually toying with the bangle, Josie turned solemn as she spoke, “I am fine, Grandpa. 1
believe this is all worth it.”
Grandpa smiled slightly and asked, “Is your father awake?”
“How did you know?” Josie was somewhat taken aback.
“Dexter told me.”
She was surprised that Dexter cared.
“He’s awake and undergoing rehabilitation, but it’s been a slow journey, and walking is
still a challenge,” Josie explained. “Once he’s in better shape, I’ll arrange for my father to
come and visit you.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Your father is the one who is ill, so it should be me
visiting him instead. Give me the address, and don’t worry about anything else,” Grandpa
muttered quickly, with a hint of exasperation in his voice.
“But…”
“Josie, forget about these trivial matters. We are a family here, and family members don’t
discuss such matters,” Marilyn said gently. “Besides, your Grandpa is bored at home every
day.”
“Alright then,” Josie replied as she smiled sheepishly at Grandpa.
After enjoying dinner at the Russell mansion, she spent a long time conversing with

He was reluctant to see her go, but she reassured him, saying. “Dexter will come to pick
me up. You can trust him.”
Exiting the Russell mansion, they were taken aback to find several black Bentleys parked
by the gate. Marilyn and Grandpa exchanged surprised looks as they watched Yanis and
the others leave the vehicles. Spotting Josie, they exclaimed. “Josie?”
Josie’s gaze focused on Wyatt, who seemed vapid, standing behind Yanis. At that moment,
Wyatt deliberately avoided meeting her

eyes.
Despite her underlying fear of his presence, Josie remained calm. “Yes, it’s a bit late for
you to visit Grandpa. Isn’t it?” she said sarcastically.
“Oh, I had an emergency, Wyatt replied, his gaze briefly lingering on Josie before turning
away. “Wyatt, how rude of you. How could you not greet your sister-in-law when you see
her? I heard that she played a vital role in helping you through your recent crisis.”
Finally, Wyatt lifted his head and greeted tersely, “Hello, Josie.”
