Before signing her name, Arabella added a line: Forever your Bella (Melody).
Grandma Shirley saw this and couldn't stop laughing. She immediately asked Brodie to find a picture frame, and she put the paper in it herself.
“Darling, it's about time. The kids must be hungry; let's have dinner first.”
Phillip's words fell on deaf ears.
After Grandma Shirley framed Arabella's signature, she placed it on the bedside table and even asked Romeo to help her take a picture with Arabella.
Phillip hurriedly said, “I want to join. Let me take a picture with you guys, too.”
“You, step aside.” Grandma Shirley wanted to have a few solo shots with Arabella.
Phillip moved aside, watching Grandma Shirley hugging Arabella and beaming at the camera. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy.
She had never been this close and intimate with him since she woke up.
After the photo session, Romeo, noticing Phillip's frustration, kindly said, “Grandpa, your turn.”
Phillip, being called out, was instantly as happy as a kid.
But the next second, Romeo handed him the phone, “Help me take a few shots with grandma and Bella.”
Phillip was speechless. Was he excluded???
“Actually, Brodie could help with the pictures.” Phillip tried to join them.
But Grandma Shirley disagreed, “There's no spare room here.”
Spare? So he was spare.
After taking the photos, with her left arm around Arabella and her right arm around Romeo, Grandma Shirley finally said, “Alright, Brodie, have the kitchen serve the food. Bella must be hungry.”
“Darling, I haven't taken my pictures yet!” Phillip, disregarding everything, squeezed into the middle and directed Brodie, “Quick, help me take a few pictures!”
If he waited any longer, Grandma Shirley wouldn't cooperate!
Brodie hurriedly pressed the shutter. Phillip in the frame was making a gesture, seemingly extremely happy to take a picture with his awake wife.
“Darling, let me push your wheelchair to join the kids for dinner.” Phillip personally lifted his wife onto the wheelchair.
Romeo and Brodie wanted to lend a hand, but he shooed them away, “I'm not so old that I can't lift her. Darling, even if you gain another 10 kilograms, I can still carry you.”
“Not 10 kilograms. If I gain 2 more kilograms, your old back would probably get hurt.” Grandma Shirley could see he was struggling.
“Who says, no matter how much weight you gain, it's not a problem! I will keep fit from now on.” As Phillip said this, he looked at Brodie, “You supervise me from now on!”
“Yes.”
The family of four was chatting and laughing as they went downstairs, where a lavish dinner was already laid out.
“Grandpa Phillip, you've prepared too much.”
Arabella looked at the food in front of her. There were definitely more than twenty dishes, which the four of them could never finish.
Each dish was not only made of rare ingredients but also posed a considerable challenge to the chef's cooking skills.
It's safe to say this dinner was beyond luxurious.
“Your grandma said this is her first dinner with you. We can't just go through the motions,” Phillip added with a smile.
