“In your mind, am I the one who bullies others?” Elvis was a little helpless. Did he look like he would bully others?
The old lady and Evelyn didn’t give Elvis any face, and they said with certainty. “You have never suffered any loss since you were a child. This is the same as your father. Nola is such an honest and nice girl, will she bully you?”
“Dad, am I really your son?” Elvis twitched the corner of his
son?
mouth and asked. Why did he feel that he was not their own
“I used to have the same question as you. You will get used to it.”
Elvis was speechless for a while. It seemed that Brandon had suffered a lot. Elvis should communicate with Brandon more and gain some experience so as not to suffer in the future.
“The three of them are united.”
“The men in the Grayson family have always had a low family status. You should know that.”
Elvis nodded seriously. He had experienced this since he was a child. But at that time, Elvis never thought that one day he would be reduced to such a position.
Both Evelyn and the old lady laughed.
This family was happy and harmonious, and Nola didn’t expect the Grayson family to be like this.
When Nola thought of her own family, compared with the Grayson family, it was totally different. With such a good family environment, every couple in the Grayson family must have a very good relationship. Nola could tell that Brandon looked serious, but he was a gentle person.
Seeing Brandon standing with Elvis, Nola thought that when Brandon was young, he should be the same as Elvis.
Some people looked indifferent because they would only give their tenderness to only one person. Brandon and Elvis should be such people.
Evelyn pulled Nola to sit together and talked with Nola.
In the car, Evelyn took Nola’s hand and said, “I trust my intuition, you are a good girl. I won’t intervene in the relationship between you and Elvis. Elvis is cold outside but hot inside, just like his father when he was young.”
Nola nodded. She knew it. Elvis had a cold face every day, but he did gentle and considerate things.
“He has been very sensible and smart since he was a child. I have a bad heart. Elvis took over the company early and asked Brandon to take me to travel around the world. I am really relieved that I have such a sensible son.”
“Elvis is very good.”
“The Grayson family doesn’t need those complicated business marriages. I have told Elvis to find someone who he loves so that they can stay together for a lifetime. I sincerely hope that in the future, you can take good care of Elvis.”
“Mom, I will.”
Evelyn nodded. “The past is over. What matters is the present and the future.”
Evelyn patted the back of Nola’s hand and said a lot, but the last sentence carried a deep meaning.
“Under the influence of us, Elvis has always attached great importance to feelings. Because of some rumors, there is a hurdle in his heart, and he does not want to get close to others.”

“Are you talking about the girl Nancy?”

“They are childhood sweethearts.” Evelyn nodded. “Nancy is also nice, but she has some small thoughts. At that time, I liked her very much. Elvis had a deep affection for her. After Nancy left, Elvis was depressed, and I’m worried that he won’t be able to get over his past feelings. Fortunately, you appeared.”
Nola didn’t expect that Evelyn would take the initiative to mention Elvis‘ past to her, and even Elvis himself never mentioned it to her. In fact, Nola minded it, but she thought, why should she bother to care about a person who was dead?
Elvis and Nancy grew up together. At that time, the Rivers family had an accident and got into a lawsuit. Both Nancy’s parents fell from the building, and she also left because of the car accident.
It happened too suddenly, and it hit Elvis hard. Rumors from the outside world said that Elvis would bring bad luck to his wife, which was groundless.
“Do you believe that?”
“No.” Nola’s answer made Evelyn look at her with admiration.
“If it were any other girl, she would have run away after knowing this.”
“I’m not the best one, but I’m willing to stay by Elvis‘ side and accompany him.”
“You are a nice girl. I basically know everything about you. Don’t worry, after entering the Grayson family, no one will dare to bully you again. Elvis will arrange your mother’s things, and maybe it will get better.”
What Nola was most worried about was that the elders of the Grayson family would have a prejudice against her because of her mother’s insanity, but Nola never expected that Elvis‘ parents would be so open–minded.
“Thank
you, M
“It’s fine. We’re
a
family.”
Along the way, Evelyn chatted with Nola a lot. Evelyn seemed to have endless things to tell Nola, and she also told Nola a lot about Elvis‘ childhood. Nola found out that Elvis was very powerful when he was a child, and at that time, Elvis had had the temper that he had now.
The car drove all the way to the old mansion, and the servants at home were ready to welcome them home at the door.
When getting off the car, Nola looked up and saw a palace–like, magnificent building. She thought that Breeze Garden was good enough, but the mansion of the Grayson family was even more shocking.
The courtyards of three independent villas were connected by long corridors, surrounded by flowers and trees. All year round, it was full of flowers. Nola had never seen such a good place before.
Seeing her stunned look, Elvis smiled and squeezed her palm, and Nola came back to her senses.
The servants bowed neatly. “Welcome home.”
Elvis led Nola to the back and introduced every place to Nola, but Nola couldn’t remember.
Usually, they each lived in their own houses, with their own study, master bedroom, and even a place to receive guests. However, the Grayson family had a habit of eating together.
Normally, there were only three people. Elvis lived in Breeze Garden, and he would only come back when he was free on weekends.
Hearing what Elvis said, Nola suddenly said, “The house is so big. Grandma lives here alone, wouldn’t she feel lonely?”

As soon as Nola finished speaking, the three people in front looked back at her at the same time.
Nola was startled. She said in such a low voice, but they heard that. Did Nola say something wrong?
