Chapter 634 Different Vibe of Affection
On her way to the restaurant, Skylar received a call. Only after Colleen identified herself that the former
realize who had called her.
Upon finding out that Colleen was at the entrance of her house, Skylar bid goodbye to Kate and got off
the car. She then hailed a taxi and headed back home.
By the time she arrived, Madelyn had already invited Colleen into the house and made the latter a tea
to drink while waiting in the living room.
Sipping on the top-grade green tea, the knowledgeable Colleen immediately praised when she saw
Skylar, “The tea leaves you have here are superb. They are rarely on sale out there.”
Skylar recalled that those tea leaves were from Tobias. She heard from someone that tea leaves
contained a high concentration of amino acids that would aid in weight loss, she begged Tobias for
some.
Nonetheless, she had barely touched it after getting them as she could not get used to the taste of tea.
Skylar sat opposite Colleen. Since she had not seen her often, she still felt quite distant from the latter. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Miranda had once recounted how Colleen had been exceptionally domineering since a young age.
Skylar learned how the latter had deliberately gotten herself involved to hasten Miranda and Thomas'
divorce back then.
“Why did you make your way here? Why didn't you tell me you were coming? What if I'm not home?”
Colleen slowly took another sip of tea. “I'll wait for you by the door if you aren't at home. Am I imposing
on you for my sudden visit?”
Skyler clenched onto the piece of the napkin so tightly it turned into a ball. “Is anything the matter? Is
he feeling better?”
Since she visited Thomas at the hospital the last time, she had never tried to ask about his situation.
She looked nonchalant, almost like she had nothing to do with him, and neither did his life or death
matter anything to her.
Worry was written all over Colleen's face as she cleared her throat and said, “Are you still concerned
about your dad? He's at the hospital for so long, yet you didn't even pretend to show some care.
Gosh... He's your father, no matter what.”
Hearing those words, Skylar twitched her lips in displeasure. “If that's what you wanted to say, please
leave then. Don't come to me because he is my father, look for his beneficiaries instead. Do you not
know how much he adores his other daughter? Why are you putting on the shackles of morality on me
now that he's sick?”
At once, the tea in Colleen's mouth turned tasteless. She could not believe that Skylar would become
so smart-mouthed after not seeing her for a few years.
She went straight to the point. “If you still treat me as your grandmother, let go of those past grudges. A
family should never have any old grudge. Your dad is turning fifty soon. I hope you'll come over and
attend the celebration.”
Skylar did not accept Colleen's invitation at once. After all, she figured she would be in an awkward
situation if she were to show up. Moreover, she still could not bring herself to give any sincere
blessings.
Colleen sighed. “I know it hasn't been easy for you all these years. Your living conditions aren't great
either. I've wanted to help you many times, but you should know what your stepmom is like. I'm in a
difficult position too.”
Hesitant about being calculative with her aging grandmother, Skylar lifted her hand, tucked some stray
hair strands behind her ear, and curled her lips into a faint smile. “I know that. That's why I've never
blamed you. Every family has its problems. Since things have passed, there's no use harping on it. I'll
still acknowledge you as my grandmother.”
Colleen placed her hand over Skylar's that was placed on her knee. Her rough and wrinkled palm
reminded Skylar of Meredith.
They shared the same kind of warmth but different vibes of affection.
