Her Joy Made His Gut Twist In Pain

||Asher||

It all began when Asher accidentally heard Old Madam Shen's conversation with Madam Ma a few days ago.

At that time, he stayed the night at the ancestral home. Audrey was not there due to her work commitments. She needed to spend late hours at the voice-recording studio.

"I hope to see Lili's special performance. If only I can go there ah."

Old Madam Shen's faint voice slipped out of the gaps between the sliding door of the Paulownia Room. In the next second, Asher heard Madam Ma chuckling before she gently chided his grandmother.

"If you persist, I'll tell Lili that you've sprained your ankle."

"Samantha, can you not be cruel to a pitiful old lady like me?" replied Old Madam Shen, her voice imbued with helplessness.

"You ask for it yourself," Madam Ma paid no heed to Old Madam Shen's act to gain her sympathy, "You should rest properly and wait for your outing with Lili soon."

"Urgh... you're right."
