Chapter 9
After a seven–hour flight, Lesly arrived in Erfield.
It was already late, but the villa halfway up the mountain was brightly lit.
As soon as she got off the car, she was helped onto the wheelchair and pushed towards the door.
From a distance, she saw a group of people waiting at the door and immediately became nervous
The butler on the side kindly introduced everyone at the door to her first.
“Mrs. Leach, you can refer to him as Mr. Leach, the person in the middle is Mr. Leach’s grandmother, on the left are Mr. Leach’s father and mother, on the right are Mr. Leach’s grandparents, and behind them…”
Lesly never expected to meet so many members of the Leach family on her first day visiting.
She tensed her nerves, quickly adjusted her breathing and expression
When she was about to stand up, she was gently held back by the kind Madam Lech.
“Lesly, you came a long way and it was hard for you, and you also have injuries on your body. You don’t have to be so formal, just have a seat.”
I heard you were coming to Erifield, our whole family wanted to come see you, don’t be nervous.
‘yes yes yes, hello sister–in–law, I am Vincent’s cousin, you can call me Libby, this is Madam Leach…”
With the help of this ten–year–old girl, Lesly successfully greeted the Leach family as the referee.
After a brief exchange of greetings, as it was getting close to dawn, everyone dispersed and agreed to meet again after a while when she would be feeling
better.
The nanny pushed Lesly into the bedroom, and Madam Leach followed. When she saw her face, her eyes were filled with nostalgia.
Leven held you in
“Lesly, when you were just born,
you in my arms! At that time, your grandfather was still around and jokingly said he wanted to arrange a marriage for you. Vincent, who was standing by, really liked you as his little sister and readily agreed.”
“Later, the Leach family moved back to Erifield, and our families had less contact. But Vincent always kept you in mind! In the period before his accident, he was still mentioning that your birthday was coming up and he wanted to go see you. Unfortunately, he couldn’t make it due to the unfortunate Incident
Fortunately, everything has passed. Since you are willing to come to Erifield, our whole family welcomes you. In the future, consider this place as your own home. If you need anything, just come to me. Grandma will be your strong support
Lesly was also moved by Madam Leach’s rambling about the past
Although she didn’t remember things from her childhood, she could feel her genuine concern from this kind and friendly old person, gently holding her
hand.
“Grandma, my grandfather used to often mention you to me, saying that you had a ‘very good temper and a lot of determination“…”
Two people talked about the past, slowly opened up their hearts, and laughed heartily.
Before going to bed, Madam Leach patted her head and smiled.
“Rest well. Tomorrow, I will accompany you to get a physical check–up, and then in the afternoon, we will go see Vincent together, okay?”
Lesly nodded and escorted the old man out.
After closing the door, she remembered they had mentioned everything was ready, and turned back to enter the cloakroom.
In the cabinet, there were pajamas, regular clothes, underwear, and socks. Next to the dressing table, various brands of skincare products were also. placed. In the bathroom, all the toiletries were neatly arranged.
Thinking about what had happened in just two days, Lesly fell a sense of ureality deep in her heart.
Did she come to Frifield like this, to marry into the Leach family?
