Chapter 918: The Matter of Children
Seeing Ethan Grant say this, the elder Mr. Grant fell silent, unable to find any other words to say.
The living room fell silent again, as Ethan Grant really had nothing to say to the elder Mr. Grant.
The Matron Grant and the elder Mr. Grant also had nothing to say.
The elder Mr. Grant wanted to find something to say, but didn’t know what! "Neither your father nor I object to your marriage."
The Dowager Grant broke the deadlock, speaking up.
Having been sent back to her hometown by Ethan Grant, the place was too humid, causing her rheumatism to flare up to an unbearable degree.
She had the elder Mr. Grant bring her back, expecting Ethan Grant to oppose it, but it went smoothly, making Madam Grant privately feel that Ethan Grant’s hatred for them was merely superficial.
After all, they’re one family.
Moreover, she was Ethan Grant’s elder. How could Ethan be so ruthless to her without fear of gossip?
So, she had to say what needed to be said, otherwise how could she face the deceased in the Grant Family! "But there’s one thing I want to ask."
"What is it?"
Ethan Grant replied with a subdued tone.
He wanted to hear what Madam Grant had to say.
Was she looking for trouble?
The result was just as Ethan Grant expected.
"I heard before from your father that you have some problems in that regard."
Ethan Grant having issues was caused by Madam Grant and the others.
"It’s been treated."
Ethan Grant said, not too pleased about the matter.
Previously, without Serena, it was irrelevant, and could even drive away women interested in him.
But now?
No way!
He couldn’t allow misunderstandings to arise, and certainly couldn’t have Serena being gossiped about.
"Really!"
Upon hearing Ethan Grant’s reply, Madam Grant was immediately delighted.
"Truly a blessing from Buddha!"
Normally a devout Buddhist, the old lady clasped her hands together joyfully and said.
"Our Grant Family has an heir now."
She feared Ethan Grant might have problems, with the elder Mr. Grant having only one son.
Her words fell, and the living room fell silent once more.
Serena’s physical condition was known to everyone present.
Ethan Grant had recovered, but she might never have children in her lifetime.
The old lady sensing the atmosphere was off, glanced at the elder Mr. Grant with a stern expression, then at Serena with her head bowed, she suddenly remembered this matter.
"Right, Serena, you can’t have children!"
Serena’s situation had been clearly explained to Madam Grant by Renee Grant earlier.
With a poor memory, thinking only of Ethan Grant’s matters, she now remembered Serena also had issues.
"Grandmother!"
Before Madam Grant could continue, Ethan Grant sharply interrupted, "My affairs don’t require your concern."
"Your affairs, of course, I won’t interfere in any longer."
How could the old lady dare!
Not to mention the elder Mr. Grant recognized his error, even Renee came to her and said not to target Serena.
She didn’t know what spell had been cast on the Grant Family, but in a short time, they all changed.
"It’s just about the child issue..."
Madam Grant looked at Serena, "You say, what are you planning to do!"
"The Grant Family cannot be without an heir."
Now she wasn’t wanting Serena to give the Grant Family a son, just a child would suffice.
"There are so many people in the Grant Family, they don’t need mine."
The elder Mr. Grant may only have Ethan Grant as a son, but further up the line.
The elder Mr. Grant has a brother and a sister, both with children of their own.
So, in the end, the Grant Family would always have someone to inherit, though from a side branch of the family.
