Chapter 7: Did You Fry Your Brain?
Chapter 7: Did You Fry Your Brain?
...
It took a long time for Gwenda to calm down after Olivier left as she temporarily threw what happened
earlier out of her mind.
...
Lying on the bed, she stared at the ceiling and contemplated many things.
Since she had been reborn, she could not let this chance go to waste and do what she had not been
able to do before.
Therefore, the top priority right now was to find a way to get her grandfather's company back from her
father.
By doing so, it ensured that the company would not fall into Gretchen's hands, nor would it be sent onto
the path of acquisition.
Gwenda continued to ponder.
At this moment, the door opened, and in came her cousin August Reed and her Grandma Suzanne.
"Grandma!"
Seeing her grandmother, Gwenda rushed down from the bed and hugged her.
In her previous life, her grandmother was tremendously upset at her father for handing over the
company to Gretchen that she fell ill and could not get up from bed.
Three months later, she passed away.
Due to being distraught, Gwenda got into a car accident while heading to the funeral after receiving the
news. As a result, she did not even get to see Grandma Suzanne for the last time.
Fortunately, God gave her another chance and allowed her to see her dear grandmother again...
...
"Grandma..."
Gwenda hugged her grandmother Suzanne tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.
She could not describe her feelings at the moment.
She just wanted to hold on to her and never let go.
Suzanne did not expect her granddaughter to have such a big reaction. Stunned, she gently touched
Gwenda's head and murmured, "You must be frightened, child. I was too. If I hadn't seen the news this
morning, I wouldn't have known that you were in an accident!"
"I'm fine." Gwenda sniffed.
...
August snorted when he heard that. "Granny, I told you that you didn't have to worry about her. Look at
her now. What could have happened?"
"What did you say?"
Grandma Suzanne let go of Gwenda and turned back to glare at him. She lectured, "She's your
younger cousin sister! Not only do you not care about her, but you're also speaking of her in such a
manner. Do you think it's reasonable?"
...
August pursed his lips, feeling that he did nothing wrong.
He had always had a bad relationship with Gwenda.
He had always felt that the Evans family had raised Gwenda to be a naive child. She was brainless and
only knew how to cause trouble, which made her an annoying person.
If Granny Suzanne had not asked him to escort her today, he would not have come at all.
"What kind of attitude is this!"
Seeing his expression, Suzanne was instantly enraged.
On one side, Gwenda took one look at August and suddenly remembered what he was like in her past
life.
Back then, their relationship was terrible.
August always spoke ill of her, and Gwenda hated him as well.
So, they often fought each other.
However, when Gwenda was at her lowest after those terrible things happened. August was the only
one who stood up for her.
That was when Gwenda realised that the people who cared for you most were likely to appear uncaring
on the surface, and those who cared could hold bad intentions towards you.
...
Pulling back from her thoughts, Gwenda slowly looked away and tried to persuade Grandma Suzanne,
"Don't be angry, grandma. August is not to blame. I am indeed fine."
"There's should be no such attitude from your elder cousin." Grandma Suzanne berated.
...
Gwenda smiled faintly and changed the topic. "Well, don't stand around now. Grandma, please take a
seat."
She then helped Suzanne to a chair.
August frowned when he saw how unconcerned she was. He walked up to Gwenda and felt her
forehead, asking in confusion, "Gwenda, did you fry your brain?"
