Chapter 183Chapter 183
At the sight of Josiah, Ysabelle got up onto her feet from the chair immediately.” You’re awake, Josiah?
I heard that your granny is in town so I came to pay her a visit.”
Looking at his grandmother who was caught up in her own world, Josiah nodded and took a seat at the
dining table.
Ysabelle hurriedly poured him a glass of milk. His grandmother was still wailing while holding her heart.
“I want my own great grandchildren. I think I’m going to die of devastation if I have to wait any longer.
Honey, how could you stop me from staying here in Jehovah City when I want to make sure that Josiah
gets married so that I can have my cute great grandchildren? You’re so cruel.” On the other end of the
phone, Josiah’s grandfather tried to comfort her, “There, there. It’s because I miss you so much that
I’ve lost all my appetite. I think I might die of hunger if you don’t come home soon.”
The corners of Josiah’s lips curled up a little. He did not expect that his intimidating grandfather would
turn into such a gentle and loving person in front of his wife. Puzzled, Ysabelle asked, “Josiah, who is
the little angel that granny is referring to? Where did she see her? I am now curious too. Does a perfect
child like her exist?”
Taking a sip of the milk from his glass, Josiah replied, “At the mall. Granny is just exaggerating.”
Josiah’s grandmother had ended the call.
Grabbing onto his arm, she said, “Josiah, the mall is owned by Shelby, isn’t it? Can you get someone to
find out the name of the child, where she lives, and…”
“Grandma,” Josiah cut her off and replied helplessly, “are you really thinking of buying over the kid and
keeping her to yourself?” “Can’t I do that?”“No, you can’t. It’ll be illegal.”
Josiah’s grandmother’s face crumbled as she murmured disappointedly, “Fine
then…”
Ysabelle quickly added, “Granny, no matter how gifted the child is, it doesn’t belong to you. Why not
have Josiah give you one instead?” “Do you think I don’t want that? I’ve prayed so hard for that.”
Shooting a glance at Josiah, she asked, “Tell me, when are you going to give me a great-grandchild?
“Granny, shouldn’t I first get married before giving you a great-grandchild?” “What are you waiting for
then? Go get married.”
Ysabelle spoke up carefully, “Granny, it’s not that Josiah doesn’t want to get married. It’s just that
Yena…she is still unconscious. Who is Josiah supposed to marry then?”
“What? You’re still waiting for Yena?” Josiah’s grandmother looked aghast. Glaring at him, she
demanded, “Well what if she never wakes up? Are you never going to get married then?” “I’ve not
thought about that.”
novelbinTaking a deep breath, Josiah’s grandmother said solemnly, “Josiah, you’re not young anymore.
Shouldn’t you be making plans for your future?” “I know that you like Yena but we aren’t even sure if
she’s going to wake up. You can’t stay waiting for her like that. You can’t afford to, and neither will the
entire Shelby family allow you to do that.” “Granny, marriage is not a business. It’s not that easy.” “Why
not? There are so many decent ladies out there. Pick one and I’ll help you settle the rest.”
Josiah’s grandmother could not understand why her eldest grandson was still single and unmarried
when so many ladies were fighting over him. What exactly was the problem?
