Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After novel Chapter 405

Chapter 405 Where’s My Grandson’s Lovely Wife

As a figure slowly approached the villa entrance, Linsey had no time to think. She sprang to her feet, linked her arm with Collin’s, and plastered on her sweetest, most obedient smile before stepping forward to greet the

visitor.

Outside Vista Villa, Ivy was just getting out of the car.

Dressed in a loose–fitting dark outfit, her silver hair neatly combed, Ivy didn’t look frail in the slightest.

Despite the wrinkles on her face, she radiated energy.

Collin’s assistant, who looked nervous, quickly moved to offer help, but before he could touch her arm, Ivy shot him a dismissive glance and waved him away.

“Enough! I’m not in perfect health, but I’m hardly dying. I don’t need your help,” she snapped, then grinned, her eyes filled with eager curiosity. “Now, where’s my grandson’s lovely wife? What are you waiting for? Show

me to her.”

With that, Ivy strode forward on her own, her steps surprisingly brisk.

The assistant scrambled after her in a panic. “Mrs. Riley, please slow down! The doctor warned you not to overexert yourself!”

He stepped in front of Ivy, attempting to block her path and calm her down.

Ivy clicked her tongue in irritation, raising her cane as if to strike him. “Move aside! Don’t waste my time–I’m here to see my dear granddaughter–in–law!”

Though she swung the cane in his direction, she never actually struck him.

The assistant squeezed his eyes shut and, with a sigh of resignation, said, “Mrs. Riley, go ahead, scold me if you must! But the doctor said your body can’t handle any strain. Even if it means I end up getting beaten up, I can’t just stand here and watch you ignore medical advice!”

Ivy kept her cane raised but didn’t lower it.

Her glare was so sharp it could have cut through stone, her breath coming in uneven bursts as her aer flared.

“You brat! Did the doctor tell you to make me angry instead?” Ivy huffed, scolding him for what felt like forever, though her cane never made contact.

The back–and–forth at the villa entrance continued, the tension growing, but Ivy’s health seemed just fine. Linsey, who had just stepped outside with Collin, couldn’t help but watch the scene unfold.

She stood there, stunned. This was nothing like she had expected.

Hadn’t Collin said Ivy was in poor health? That she had been recovering in some foreign sanatorium for years?

But now, watching Ivy banter with Collin’s assistant, Linsey couldn’t help but think that Ivy looked even

stronger than she did.

Ivy looked far too lively to be someone who needed rest.

Beside her, Collin let out a resigned sigh, though he seemed used to his grandfnother’s antics.

After a beat, he finally spoke. “Grandma, please don’t pick on my assistant. He’s just doing his job. Please give

him a break.”

Ivy immediately scowled. “Collin, what nonsense are you spouting? How am I bullying anyone? I’m just excited to meet my granddaughter–in–law, and your assistant is the one slowing me down.”

She paused, then lifted her head, her eyes naturally landing on Linsey, who was standing beside Collin.
