Chapter 272 You've finally begun to care for your wife,” Wanda quipped. Glowering at Jerome, she continued, “What have you been doing in the past?” Grandma- “Grandma, you're right. | wasn’t doing my best back then.” Jeradmitted his mistake before Mikayla could even finish speaking.
“It’s not your fault. | was imposing on you,” Mikayla said. “Grandma, Uncle Stephen and Aunt Matilda should be arriving soon. I'll go and take a look.” The last thing she wanted was to be in his presence. He reminded her of Kylie, and she didn’t want to be furious at him because of her.
Knowing that was probably an excuse, Wanda nodded. “Alright.” She slapped Jerome's hand away once Mikayla left. “Go away! You're so clumsy. Kay did a way better job than you!” Jerwithdrew his hands, his gaze still fixated on the direction Mikayla left.

“Why are you still here? Go accompany your wife!” Wanda snapped.
He obeyed and trailed after Mikayla.
Stephen and Matilda had arrived. They were busy greeting Zachary and the other Miller relatives. Mikayla didn’t want to get involved, so she took a seat in a quiet area.
She was just about to request a glass of water when anE3n reached out to her. It was Jerome, with a glass of warm water in his hands.
Mikayla furrowed her brows. “Aren’t you supposed to accompany Grandma?” Jerplaced the glass of water in her hands. “Grandma complained that | was too clumsy. She kickedout.” “You should go greet your relatives. | want to spend ston my own,” she said.
Jerome's expression was indiscernible as he sat down beside her. “Ignore what Dad said. He basically dislikes everyone, so he’s not targeting you.” Mikayla snickered. “I don’t think so. He seems to be quite pleased with Kylie.” “Mr. White used to work as our butler, so Dad trusts him. That's why he cares about Kylie as well.” She was surprised that he actually bothered to explain. “It’s none of my concern. It doesn’t matter whether he likesor not. From tomorrow onward, I'm no longer part of his family.” Jerfelt like he had been stabbed. Well aware that she was annoyed, he averted the topic promptly.
