Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared novel Chapter 45

Heirloom?

Old Master Firth gave her the heirloom?

Nancy's eyes almost welled up with tears. The bracelet in her hand felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, making her almost breathless.

Overwhelmed by emotion, she struggled to speak, managing only two words that escaped her lips, "Grandpa..."

"All right, all right."

Old Master Firth waved his hand at them, "Charlie can take an opportunity to put it on for you in person. It's getting late. You should go back home."

Holding the bracelet, Nancy wanted to say something, but Charlie already pulled her away.

They had taken quite a few steps away when Nancy turned back to see Old Master Firth. He still stood there, smiling at them.

If only he were her real grandfather...

Nancy sorrowfully turned her head back, reluctant to part with this beloved old man.

If only...

But there were no ifs in this world.

In the car, Nancy gazed on the bracelet in the box. The bracelet was very beautiful, emitting a green glow under the light. It was cold to the touch, but it warmed Nancy's heart.

But how could she take the Firth family's heirloom?

She bit her lip hard, as if making a decision. She closed the box and handed it to Charlie, "Here."

Charlie frowned, both hands on the wheel, not taking it, "It's given to you by grandpa. You can keep it."

"But I..."

The mere thought of her leaving Charlie and the Firth family in two days was so unbearably painful causing her eyes to turn red.
