Chapter 158 Can’t Forget Where You Came From


Two days later, Cherry called Erin from the mansion Chandler had arranged for her. Erin was extremely shocked when she received her call!


“Mom, why are you abroad?”


Cherry was dressed in designer brands from head to toe as she sat in the living room in the mansion, saying with great excitement. “Erin, that’s what I was going to tell you! I already know about you and Chandler! I fully, absolutely support you and him being together!”


Erin’s heart missed a beat. She had not had the time to tell Cherry about her and Chandler. She had only told Cherry previously that she was going on a vacation abroad with her friend for a period, much less the fact that she got pregnant out of wedlock.


She had been waiting for Chandler to resolve the problem. However, Chandler told her that it would still take some time for his grandfather and father to accept her. He asked her to first take good care of the baby, and he would handle everything else.


After that, Erin never mentioned this to him again. She was afraid she would put too much pressure on Chandler if she kept talking about it. She chose to believe him and wait for him.


“Mom, was Chandler the one who told you about me and him?” Erin asked calmly.


Cherry smiled and said, “Of course. Erin, since you’ve found such a perfect man, why didn’t you tell me about it? Chandler was really generous and thoughtful. He had somebody take Gavin and me here to settle down, letting us accompany you when you’re waiting to deliver your child. Your brother is over the moon! After tomorrow, he’ll be studying at the elite school that he used to dream of going to!”


Erin had mixed feelings when she heard that. She was very thankful that Chandler could do all this without her knowing and let her reunite with her family. However, why did she have a slight feeling that she had fallen into a plan he had designed?


He had told her back then in Fleuverton that he wanted to let her settle down abroad.


“Mom, you know that I’m pregnant?” Erin asked, her eyebrows furrowed.


“Of course! Don’t worry. When you come over, I’ll make nutritious meals for you every day. I guarantee that you’ll have plenty of nutrition during your pregnancy!” Cherry held the phone in one hand and looked at the emerald ring in her other hand.


When Kyle told her this ring was worth more than ten million dollars, Cherry was simply stunned. She could not sleep for days. Holding this ring suddenly made her feel like she had become rich overnight. There was no need to mention how happy that felt! In short, she felt


elated!


Erin could feel that her mother was sincerely happy over the phone, and she could not help but feel a little sad. Cherry had been tough her entire life. She had it rough the few years after she got divorced when she was young, and things got slightly better after she met Grayson


later.


Cherry never wanted to spend a single cent of the child support Steven had paid when Erin was still a child. She had never gotten to enjoy a lavish life after the divorce. She was only comfortably off at best in a place like the county. 1


“I’m glad that you’re happy, Mom. Have you and Gavin gotten used to staying abroad?”


“What’s there not to get used to? People abroad are still people. Their features just look different. Chandler is very meticulous! He hired a few chefs specializing in various styles of Coandrian food for the mansion Gavin and I are living in. The food they make is better than any restaurants in Southwrok County …”


Then, Erin heard Cherry singing all kinds of praises. In short, with money, everything in life was good and all materialistic needs could be


met.


Erin had not heard Cherry go on and on chatting like this for so many years. She could not bring herself to stop her, so she let her talk to


her heart’s content. 1


“Erin, listen to my advice, don’t think too much about other things. They can wait until the baby’s born. I simply don’t believe his father won’t accept you! No matter what, the child you’re bringing into the world is the Frost family’s eldest grandchild!” Cherry looked proud. She was worried that Erin would not be able to remarry after she’d gotten a divorce back then. She did not expect that Erin would be pregnant in a blink of an eye.


She could get married after giving birth to the child. At this time in age, that was already nothing new.


Erin smiled. “How is it that you know everything. Mom? Did Chandler tell you all that?”


1/3


“Hahaha. Not all of it. I called your best friend, Holly, and she told me about many things. The more I know, the less I’ll worry about you. Mr. Morn said you’ll be reuniting with me and Gavin very soon. Is that right?”


“Mm–hmm, very soon. I’m still in Mufrana, waiting for Chandler to come back. We’ll go to you together when the time comes.”


At that moment. Erin looked forward to living abroad even more. Previously, she was missing home very much because she had been staying in Mufrana for a while. However, both her mother and brother were already abroad at that point, which she felt was the best thing. for her. Therefore, she suddenly no longer missed her home country that much anymore. (1)


In the next five minutes, Erin and Cherry talked a little about the condition she was in after she got pregnant, then the call ended quickly because Cherry and Gavin wanted to go sightseeing.


After that, Erin walked to the pool. Watching the clear ocean outside the pool made her feel happy in an instant.


Erin knew Chandler deserves all the credit when she thought of how her mother and brother were happily living abroad. Never mind whether they could get accustomed or not in the future, at least they seemed to have gotten used to it at that moment.


She had to admit that it was great to live comfortably like this. Even her father’s company had gotten much better and was already


heading on the right track.


Erin even speculated if it was because Quentin had slowly accepted her. Otherwise, why did Chandler not go against his father anymore?


Perhaps Chandler had truly put in a lot of effort in private.


Thinking of that, she truly missed Chandler very much, so much so that she could no longer hold herself back. She could not help but make an international call to him. Sending a few texts could no


longer express how much she missed him!


When Chandler received Erin’s call he was dressed in a black tux, looking like a groom. At that moment, he was standing in Quentin’s


study and confronting him.


As soon as Quentin saw Chandler’s gaze, he sneered. “It’s her, isn’t it?”


Chandler was torn, but he still rejected Erin’s call.


“I’m already standing here today. Shouldn’t you be giving me her address?” Chandler’s gaze was resolute.


Seeing that his son looked sullen the whole time on his wedding day, Quentin did not feel at ease at all.


He said, “What’s the hurry? As per our agreement, I’ll give you the address. Let’s first talk about Erin. Do you really have the heart to bring the child back after Erin’s given birth and raise him in our family? You should know that I would never acknowledge her as the Frost family’s daughter–in–law. As for your grandfather, I’ll keep helping you to hide this from him.”


Then, Quentin added. “Also, how you should treat your wife is your business! However, she’s the granddaughter of your grandfather’s


comrade. No matter what, you can’t let her have a marriage in name only and put your grandfather in a difficult position! You’ve accepted the marriage your grandfather arranged for you, and he’s getting healthier now. I can’t deny that you deserve the credit for that…”


Chandler’s perfect, handsome face started to look annoyed. “Are you done? If you are, give me the address!”


In that instant, Quentin fell a little infuriated. Whether it was his outstanding appearance, intelligence, ability, or means, his son was


extremely similar to him. However, he just liked to go against him.


They were father and son, but they were also like enemies.


“Listen to me! No matter if you like Jazzlyn Overton or not, don’t forget that she’s the granddaughter– in–law your grandfather handpicked! If he hadn’t fought hard in battle back then and was lucky enough to survive in the end, we wouldn’t be here today, much less have the Frost Corporation.” Quentin was so worked up that he had already got up from the leather chair.


“What exactly are you trying to tell me? I’ve already married Jazzlyn. What more do you want from me?” Chandler was seeing red as he glared at him.


Quentin walked up to Chandler and said with a sullen face. “I’m trying to tell you that no matter how successful your business is, you can’t forget where you came from! You can’t forget the forefathers of the Frost family! Your grandfather is old now. How many more years can you make him happy? Was the war and suffering he had been through when he was young incomparable to your marriage?”


Quentin added, “I can’t stand Erin, but I’ve also compromised for you, haven’t I? I allowed her to give birth to our family’s bloodline.


Chandler, you can’t be so greedy! You are here, but your mind is elsewhere. Today is your wedding day. Don’t let your grandfather notice. any clues. Even if you have to act, play your role as the groom well today!”


At that moment, an old and deep voice could be heard coming from outside the study. “Chandler


Chandler and Quentin looked at the door at the same time. The door was soon opened, and in came Gaston, who was wearing a gray suit


and holding a cane.


“Quentin, what are the two of you talking about? No matter how important business affairs are, it’s too outrageous for you to leave the Overton family waiting in the dining room!”


Gaston turned to look at Chandler and said, “Chandler, I agreed with you back then to not have a grand wedding, not announce it in the newspapers, and just have the two families share a meal together happily. But what is the nonsense of you, the groom, hiding in the study? I’ve asked Simon to chat with Jazzlyn now! As time passes, what are your in–laws going to think of you and the Frost family? You’ve just gotten married, yet you’re already ignoring your bride. You’ve embarrassed me! My comrade is already looking sullen. He loves


his only granddaughter very much…”


Quentin immediately walked up and said pleasantly, “Dad, it’s our fault! I was lecturing Chandler. Let’s go. We’ll all go downstairs now, and I’ll apologize to the Overton family in person.”


Hitting his cane on the floor, Gaston furrowed his eyebrows and said with a smile. “That’s more like It! Chandler, hurry up and come downstairs with me!”


Chandler looked at Quentin meaningfully, and Quentin immediately understood what he meant. He said. “I’ll give you the ‘client’s information‘ you wanted after dinner.”


Upon saying that, he turned and followed Gaston out of the study. Walking in front, Gaston said, “Chandler, hurry up.”


Chandler glanced at his phone, but he did not return Erin’s call in the end. Restraining himself with great resolve, he followed them down


the stairs.


The guilt he felt toward Erin got one step deeper.


Yes, he had lied to Erin from the very beginning.


In order to get the address from Quentin and fulfill his promise to his grandfather, Chandler had chosen to be an obedient grandson.


As for Erin, he could only do all he can to make it up to her even more for the rest of his life. He could give her money, love, time, and


anything. The only thing he could not give her was the status of being his legitimate wife.


At that moment, Chandler was walking down the stairs. A woman he did not love at all was sitting in the decorated dining room, and she


owned the position Erin had longed for–the granddaughter–in–law the Frost family approved of and handpicked.


The sorrow Chandler felt was boundless as he thought, “Erin, it’s enough that I love you, right?”
