My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1098

Then, Naomi pointed at me and said with a smile, "Grandpa, you gave away Grandma's bracelets to others so casually. Aren't you afraid that Grandma will be angry at you?"

Ziglar was stunned for a while and looked at Hendrix in befuddlement.

Hendrix's attitude remained pleasant. He quickly stood up and bowed in apology. He said, "I'm really sorry, Master Attwood. I've always wanted to explain to you about it back when we were at the hotel, but I didn't have a chance to do so. I'll have to apologize to you today for not explaining it to you earlier."

Then, he took the bracelets that Ziglar had given to Rowane out and handed it back to Ziglar. He then said, "Arianna is my wife. We had some issues some time ago during the time we had dinner together in the hotel. We cannot accept these bracelets from you."

As he said that, I stood up and bowed to apologise as well.

Ziglar seemed as if he hadn't come to his senses yet. He looked at me blankly and said, "You both.."

Naomi said, "Grandpa, do you still not understand? They had a misunderstanding before, and it caused them to have a great row. However, I think Mr. Roberts is right. Those bracelets were left behind by Grandma, so you can't just casually give them away to someone else. If you want to give them a gift, you can give them something else. Those bracelets contain your memories with Grandma, so you shouldn't give them away."

Ziglar smiled and opened the box the bracelets were in. Looking at me and Hendrix who were still standing up, he said, "Alright, you both can sit down now. The misunderstanding has now been settled."

Hendrix and I sat back onto our seats. Ziglar continued on, "It's normal for a married couple to fight occasionally when you live together."

Hendrix and I quickly nodded in response. Naomi looked at me and whispered, "I didn't expect your handsome husband to be so respectful to the elderly!"

I smiled faintly. Hendrix was charming not only because of his appearance and his leadership, but also because he was strict towards his own subordinates and spoke little to others who weren't involved with him. Those were all just his habits.

He was a gentle and loyal person deep inside. He was patient with children and respectful towards his elders. Those were all part of his charms.

Ziglar looked at the bracelets in his hands and sighed slightly. "As you all said, this bracelet isn't a suitable gift for you both. Actually, your Grandma gave me when she left. We had a good relationship with the Roberts family for decades. This bracelet was originally given to us by the Old Madam Roberts. 60 years ago, when our nation was at war, we had to flee from place to place to hide. We then met the Roberts family, who were in a similar situation as us. At that time, we had to scrape together whatever we could just for a meal. Just a bowl of grains was good enough for us."

As he spoke, Master Attwood sighed and continued, "These bracelets might look worthless to all of you as they come off as just a humble pair of silver bracelets. However, back then, it was a great thing to give such a thing to others. The Roberts family's daughter- in- law had originally planned to get us to sell these bracelets in exchange for some grains to eat."

He looked at Naomi and said, "However, your Grandma wouldn't agree to do so. No matter how hungry she was, she treasured them a lot. Later on, we escaped to Myanway. Your Grandma lived a hard life while raising your father, yet she still didn't sell them. After a long period of hardship, she could have lived a good life. However, due to being malnourished for so long, her body suffered from various illnesses. She had always wanted to bring those bracelets along to meet your wife, but she died before her wish could come true."
