My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 298

“Yes!”

Nash and Finn exchanged stunned looks.

The old woman was obviously blind, so how had she known where Nash was sitting?

“You’re lying…”

The old woman spoke chidingly, a sullen expression on her face.

Then, a wave of sound washed over them.

Cracks appeared on the walls, and the coffee table’s glass topper shattered.

“Grandma…”

Melody Stone’s elegantly arched eyebrows furrowed together, seemingly worried the old woman would injure their guests!

She was using the Lion’s Roar method!

Nash narrowed his eyes and used his true energy to protect his eardrums.

Finn was caught by surprise, and his brain felt like it was about to explode. He grabbed his head and let out a piercing shriek.

“I’m not lying. I have my grandfather’s ring with me!” Nash said as he raised his right hand to show her the ring on his finger, which was glowing dimly.

“Grandma… he’s got a gold ring on his finger. It looks the same as the one in the picture you have in your study!” Melody said as she stared intently at the ring on Nash’s finger.

The look on the old woman’s face changed abruptly. She staggered to her feet and dropped to her knees before Nash. “Little Master… it really is you!”

The old woman was so overcome with emotion that even her voice was trembling.

“Ma’am, please, why don’t you take a seat first?”

Nash helped the woman back to her seat on the couch.

The old woman must have been a survivor of the Young Family Village massacre. Since she was addressing him as “Little Master”, it meant she was not a member of the Young family but must have served the family as a nanny or something similar.

“Twenty-three years!”

“I thank the heavens for allowing me to finally meet you again while I’m still alive, Little Master!”

“I should have died alongside the rest of the Young family, but I never returned to the Young Family Village because I wanted to survive… I deserve to die!”

The old woman fell to her knees again as she spoke and sobbed hysterically.

Nash helped the old woman to her feet and said comfortingly, “Granny, please don’t overthink things… Anyone who tried returning would have gotten killed. I’m sure the Young family will rest in peace knowing you survived!”

His great-grandfather had adopted her, and instead of treating her as a nanny or some other lowly servant, she was treated as one of his own. The fact she was literate and had practiced martial arts meant his great-grandfather had thought of her as his child.

Since she was around his grandfather’s age, it made sense for him to address her as his granny.

Nash had thought he was the sole survivor of the Young family, and he was pleased to hear there was another survivor. It felt like he had finally found land after years at sea.

“Thank you… thank you for forgiving me, Little Master…”

The old woman’s lips trembled as she thanked him.

Her legs shook as she staggered her way back to the couch.

“Granny…”
