Mila explained, “It’s because Grandma came in too often and it truly bothered me,”

“That was her way of showing her love and your reaction was actually hurting her,” Zach said.

Mila hadn’t realized it until now. She felt guilty about it.

Zach continued, “You never opened the presents that your grandma buys for you. You just put them in your cupboard.”

Mila remained silent. It wasn’t that she didn’t like it when Loretta bought her presents. She just wasn’t interested in the presents she bought.

She loved learning, reading, machines, astronomy, geography, and all kinds of things to do with knowledge. Yet, Loretta gave her clothes, stuffed animals, jewelry, luxuries, and cosmetics.

“Every time your grandma talked to you, you would lose patience after a few sentences. But you could talk to me forever without tiring. Your grandma saw this and felt hurt.

“She didn’t get a lot of education and is fond of small talk and gossip. But that’s how she sees the world. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to keep up with you.” Zach thought about Loretta’s hardships over the years and was moved.

Mila dropped her head, feeling even worse. She had never realized the pain she had caused

Loretta.

“Even so, your grandma still loves you very much. That fake Sally is completely different from you. She doesn’t bury herself in books. She doesn’t study and say things that your grandma doesn’t understand.

She pleases your grandma with her sweet tongue.

“She loves eating the snacks your grandma gives her, loves receiving the gifts your grandma buys her, loves hearing your grandma’s gossip, and even loves hanging out with your grandma. She even loves spending time with your grandma doing things you consider boring. and a waste of time.

“She’s the granddaughter your grandma has always dreamed about. Your grandma isn’t refusing to accept you. She simply can’t accept the fact that her granddaughter, who came back as an adult, still hates her as much as before,” Zach explained.

Mila lifted her head and wiped away her tears. She sniffled and choked up, “I’ve never hated. Grandma or looked down on her since I was a little girl. I–I just wasn’t sensible when I was young.”

Zach patted her hand gently and said, “Even though I can understand it, your grandma. probably can’t. Her mind isn’t that complex. She needs simple expressions and direct feelings.

Mila smiled through her tears. “Grandpa, I get it. Grandma doesn’t love the fake Sally. She just can’t accept that her beloyed granddaughter doesn’t love her.”

Zach gave a helpless smile. “Yeah. She feels that you must hate her even more now when she thinks about how she used to scold and insult you for the sake of the fake Sally. She thought she’d already lost her favorite granddaughter.”

Mila looked back at Loretta’s room and muttered, “I never blamed or resented her. She’s overthinking.”

Zach continued eating. “Wanda, it’s okay for you to resent her. That old woman is truly clueless. She doesn’t even recognize her granddaughter.” Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

“Nathan didn’t recognize me either,” Mila said in a bitter tone.

“That’s because he hasn’t seen you for ten years and young people believe in science. It’s different with your grandma.

“You’ve video–called her every year. How could she not recognize you after only three years. since you disappeared?”

Mila’s mood sank again. She let her head drop, lost in thoughts. Her mind was on what Nathan had told her that day in the party hall.

He had said that he would be willing to wait another five years, even if it was only for a single

contact after that.
