Chapter 1195


    The moment she finished talking, Celeste picked up on the shift in the room’s vibe.


    Her grandfather’s warmth towards her had cooled significantly, while her grandmother remained


    expressionless.


    Sheldon Hann took a sip of his drink, remaining silent.


    Steven paused for a moment, “Mrs, Janis.”


    It was Hiram who awkwardly stood up, “What brings you here?”


    Janis spoke softly. “You forgot your blood pressure meds. I thought you might not be able to find them,


    so I brought them over.”


    Steven remained silent with his lips pursed.


    Blood pressure meds weren’t emergency drugs. There’s no need to carry them around all the time.


    But Hiram didn’t think that much. He took the meds, whispering, “You could’ve just sent someone to


    deliver this. Why did you have to personallye?”


    Lowly, Janis replied, “Mr. and Mrs. Hann have been in J City for a while now. I wanted to visit them.


    And Celeste, you’ve been looking forward to this for so long. I wanted to share this joy with you.”


    Hiram was in a bit of a bind.


    Although his parents hadn’t said anything about his remarriage, he could sense their resistance.


    And this was the first time Celeste had met them. It wasn’t appropriate for Janis to be there


    Hiram whispered, “You should go home. We’ll all have a meal together when Celeste is free. Let the


    child have a good reunion with her grandparents today.


    Janis seemed a bit disappointed, but she didn’t argue with Hiram. She whispered, ‘Let me say a few


    words to Mr. and Mrs. Hann. I will leave after that.”


    Hiram couldn’t stop her. He turned his head to look at Old Mr. Hann, who red back at him.


    Janis walked over, cing a beautifully wrapped bag on the table. She greeted the elderly couple


    warmly, “Mr. Hann, I know that you like painting. ir asked a friend to bring some paint. I don’t


    understand much about it, but I heard that this paint is good, especially the bright colors. I hope you will


    like


    Celeste nced at the box, realizing it was indeed high–end.


    During her painting sses, her teacher once mentioned a high–end paint that was so expensive that


    many people couldn’t afford it. She didn’t expect ir to have bought it.

    Celeste pursed her lips..


    The gift Liam had prepared for her wasn’t as valuable, although it wasn’t cheap either. It was their first


    meeting, and they were still unfamiliar, so it wasn’t suitable to give them something too expensive. Liam


    had chosen the gift based on what they usually give their grandmother on holidays, something suitable


    and respectful.


    Butpared to what Janis brought, it felt a bit shabby.


    The old man nced at the gift and said indifferently, “This is too valuable. You should take it back.”


    Janis spoke softly, “ir asked her friend for a long time to select this, especially for you. It’s a token of


    her affection. Taking it back would be a waste.”


    Old Mr. Hann wanted to refuse further, but Old Mrs. Hann gave him a tap under the table.


    Old Mrs. Hannughed, “Then we’ll ept it.”


    When Old Mrs. Hann finished speaking, Sheldon Hann stood up and epted the gift, saying “Thank


    you.”
