Virginity in second marriages novel Chapter 954

Manuel told Beatrice what had happened.

-Your mother is taking care of Aunt Anna who has a fever? -Beatrice frowned.

Manuel nodded.

-How can a pregnant woman take care of someone with a fever, what if she gets infected?

But Manuel only knew that Anna needed someone to take care of her, and Mom was willing to help.

Seeing Grandma Beatrice's worried expression, Manuel realized the importance.

-So, Mom.

-I'll call your father and he'll take care of it.

After everyone's identities had been sorted out, Beatrice had Cristian's phone number.

Angelo listened to their conversation, and after Beatrice left, he sat down next to Manuel.

Great-grandfather.

Manuel greeted him as if he had just noticed Angelo.

Angelo was excited and a little disappointed.

He had been alone for many years and all he wanted was a family.

Angelo was already happy to have such a handsome, intelligent and educated great-grandson.

-Manuel,‖ he replied, smiling with childlike joy.

-Aunt Anna is very good to me, she always cooks for me," Manuel said.

-Really? -Angelo was a little surprised.

-Manuel nodded.

-I had to stay home to look after her, but if no one came to eat here, you would be lonely, so I came to keep you company.

-You don't mind me being the only one here, do you? -Manuel pulled Angelo's sleeve.

Angelo said nothing.

How could he be unhappy?

Of course, he wanted everyone to come to dinner.

After all, yesterday's Christmas Eve dinner had been very lively, even though Cristian and Manuel were not present.

It had been a long time since he had been this happy.

After all these years, Angelo could no longer remember much of what had happened before.

The memories only made him sad.

Yesterday's Christmas Eve dinner was really what he remembered most clearly; it was something he longed for.

He had grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and a daughter, and if his granddaughter and her friends had come, it would have been a big family.

-What? -Angelo's eyes widened.

-Mom raised me by herself.

Manuel looked like he was about to cry: -Mom had to work and take care of me, and it was hard every day.

By saying something nice about his mother, Manuel made Angelo feel even worse than Cristian.

Angelo kept silent, knowing absolutely nothing about Manuel's childhood, probably because the boy was so well protected by the Giordano family.

He wondered what had happened then to make Serena raise Manuel alone.

Serena had always been good to him, even though she knew Angelo was not happy with her.

He could have eaten more of what Serena had cooked at that Christmas Eve dinner if Beatrice had not stopped him.

Serena always looked at Angelo with gratitude.

And she had raised Manuel very well.

Angelo's opinion of Serena had changed dramatically.

He thought it was extraordinary for women to raise their children alone.

After all, it was very difficult.

However, the two daughters he had worked so hard to raise had eventually left him.
