CHAPTER 538
Chapter 538 Can You Let Him In?
“It’s only natural for a grandmother to prepare some things for her grandson to get married. How can it be considered a bother? Even if it’s a bother, it’s still a pleasure!” Miley was still smiling. She looked more benevolent
than before.
She seemed to have expected Simon’s rejection. She continued, “Moreover, you young people don’t understand. This pregnancy requires more rest, but it is not to lie in bed all day. This is not good for the mother and the child! A pregnant woman occasionally needs to go out to walk around and breathe fresh air.
“Kid, you have been following your grandfather since you were young and don’t have much time to be by my side. After you grow up, you become even busier. It’s rare for you to have some time now. Why not walk around with me? Don’t tell me that you can’t fulfill me with just this little request. I’m old, and I don’t have many days left to live. Now, I just want to hang out with my grandson. Why can’t you satisfy me?”
As Miley spoke, her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked very sad.
Simon was lost for words.
Silvia was speechless.
They were the kind of people who were used to handling threats, but Miley was playing the emotional card, which was not in their field. Miley even mentioned Simon’s grandfather. For a moment, it was hard to refuse.
“Grandma, that’s not what I meant,” Simon said. “I just think…”
“He was just afraid that you would be too tired.” Silvia interrupted him and continued, “It’s not that we don’t appreciate your kindness, but we are afraid that it will be tiring for you to go out. But you are right. I should go out occasionally, I can’t stay at home all day. I also told Simon before that I wanted to go out for a walk, but he refused to let me go. He’s just too sensitive.
“You see, now Miley also said so. Then let’s go out for a walk with Miley!” she looked at Simon and said with a smile.
Hearing her say this, Miley became happy. She wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and smiled, “Right! My granddaughter-in-law is so considerate. She knows my feelings. Look, you wouldn’t listen to me. Now that your wife has spoken, you can go out for a walk with me, right?”
Simon looked helpless. He glanced at Silvia and said lovingly, “Alright! I know you’ve been bored at home for a long time. Let’s go out together.”
The two of them changed their clothes. Miley looked around. This house was so big. She did not know which room the things would be hidden in. She had done everything she could, but she did not know if Bridger could get what he
wanted.
As she watched, Simon and Silvia had already come down. Miley casually stuffed the ring on her hand into the gap in the sofa and stood up. “Alright, let’s go!”
The three of them got into the car, and the car quickly drove out.
Ten minutes later, Bridger’s sports car had already arrived near the gate, and he was honking loudly.
“Mr. Bridger, Mr. Simon and Mrs. Palmer just left. You should come another day,” the gatekeeper said.
“What a bummer! But it doesn’t matter. I’m not in a hurry. I’ll go in and wait for them.” He patted the steering wheel and did not have any intention of leaving.
“Sorry, Mr. Simon and his wife are not at home. It is not convenient for you…”
“What do you mean inconvenient? Do you know who I am to Simon? I am his biological uncle. Isn’t that reasonable

for an uncle to visit his nephew?” His face was full of dissatisfaction. “Hurry up and open the door. Be careful that I let my nephew fire you!”
However, Simon’s servants were all well-trained and only listened to Simon. Naturally, they would not let Bridger in
because of his words.
“It is my duty. Please forgive me.”
Rolling his eyes at the gatekeeper, Bridger had expected it. He said, “Then how can I go in and wait for them? I have an urgent matter. It is not good to wait outside. How about this, if Simon lets me in, can I go in?”
The gatekeeper was stunned. He didn’t understand what Bridger meant, but he replied, “If Mr. Simon agrees, of
course, it will be OK. But he is not here now, then…”
“Why are you so stubborn? If he isn’t here, I can just give him a call!” Bridger picked up his phone and made a call. “Hello, Simon. Where are you? Where’s mom?”
Simon turned to look at Miley. “She’s beside me.”
“Beside you? Why did you leave? Didn’t we agree to wait for me? Tell Mom to answer the phone!”
Bridger muttered. He seemed dissatisfied that he had been stood up. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Seeing that Simon was looking at her, Miley asked, “What is it?”
“Uncle Bridger said he told you to wait for him. Did you tell him?” As Simon spoke, he handed the phone over.
Miley patted her thigh. “Hey, my bad memory! 1 originally wanted to tell him to come and find me so that we could all go together. As a result, I was too happy to chat with you guys, so I forgot about it!”
As Miley spoke, she picked up the phone, patted her forehead, and sighed, “Bridger, I’m sorry. I forgot about it because I was too happy. Why don’t you go home first?”
“What am I going home for? I have to have afternoon tea with you and watch a play later. Never mind. I will wait for you here, but they won’t let me in. Let Simon tell the gatekeeper to let me go in and wait. What is he afraid of?”
As Bridger spoke, he glanced at the gatekeeper with a face full of dissatisfaction.
“Well… I am afraid it is not very convenient.” After hesitating for a moment, Miley looked at Simon. “Look, it was my mistake. I was too happy going out with you, so I forgot about it. Let your uncle go in and sit down to wait for us to come back, okay?”
Simon’s expression was indifferent. “I’m afraid it’s not convenient. Today, you probably don’t have much time to watch the play. Why don’t you let Uncle Bridger go back? You can go tomorrow.”
“How can that be? That play doesn’t perform every day. Today is the final day!” Miley immediately refused.
“Then let’s turn around and go back now. You and Uncle Bridger go to watch the play, and we will go shopping another day. Is that okay?” Simon immediately raised his opinion.
Miley shook her head. “You are a busy person. Your wedding date is around the corner. If this drags on, who knows if there will be any changes tomorrow.”
“Then…”
It seemed like Miley insisted on letting Bridger in.
“Forget it. I’ll let him go back first. I won’t watch the play!” Miley was a little unhappy, but when she waved her hand, she realized something and exclaimed, “Hey, where is my ring? Why is it missing?”
Mom, what do you mean? What happened to you?” on the other side of the line, Bridger asked nervously.
