Chapter222
Over a decade later, Ashley still remembered vividly. She recalled a heartbreaking bathroom trip. Upon returning, she saw Grandma Lin holding two ice cream bars, one for her and one for Tanya. One bar had a chunk missing, slightly soiled by a passing waiter’s tray. Tanya instantly picked the perfect one. Grandma Lin simply ruffled her hair, smiling without replacing the damaged bar.

Grandma Lin and Vivian showed no embarrassment, likely anticipating her response.
