The family of six joyfully finished their breakfast.
Mabel descended the stairs while looking pale.
“Grandma, good morning.”
“Good morning, Grandma.”
The children greeted Mabel one after another.
Mabel walked to the dining table and sat down. Mr. Brown immediately served the breakfast that had already been prepared long ago.
Adina put down her chopsticks and stood up. As she was about to go to the living room, Mabel called after her.
“Duke, Addy, I have something to tell you both.”
Adina halted her steps and said lightly, “What is it?”
“I booked my ticket to Australia this afternoon.” Mabel said with a hoarse voice, “I will stay and live in Australia from now on. You guys can visit Australia and spend a few days there if you have the time.”
Adina remained silent and pursed her lips.
Their current relationship was not suitable for them to live together. It would be awkward for each other.
As a child, Duke could not request Mabel to move out. The fact that Mabel could take the initiative to do so spared both parties the indignity.
The children froze when they heard it.
Harold climbed up to Mabel’s knee. “Grandma, why would you want to go to Australia? We talked about this before, didn’t you say you wanted to stay in Sea City to watch us grow up?”
Melody reluctantly tugged on Mabel’s sleeve. “Grandma, you also said you would take me to buy a diamond necklace. Are you going back on your words?”
George said in a deep voice, “Grandma, if there is no reason why you must go, it’s better to stay.”
Alden pursed his lips and said nothing.
Tears quickly filled Mabel’s eyes as she patted the children’s heads one by one. “The climate in Sea City is not suitable for Grandma. I will get dizzy and cough all day long, so it will be better if I return to Australia. If you guys miss Grandma, let Mr. Brown send you guys to Australia to play for a few months, okay?”
