Chapter 580: Your Brother Is in Trouble

After all, she had been looking after the child for many years. And with her true granddaughter Nancy Law gone too soon, Stacy Summers had somewhat transferred her affections onto this little girl, Rosalind White.

Moreover, when she was young, Rosalind White had once risked her own life to save Adrian Law, coupled with the abbot of Sage’s Mercy Temple’s prophecy, declaring her a Heavenly Destiny Noble Lady—such remarks offered her protection. As a result, the Law Family’s attitude towards Rosalind White was permissive from top to bottom.

Without mentioning the respect shown in words, all her clothing, food, housing, and transport, including the credit card she used regularly, were extremely luxurious, surpassing even many young ladies of high society.

Despite living such a good life, Rosalind White not only lacked appreciation but also gratitude. Instead, she aspired to marry Adrian Law and become the eldest young lady of the Law Family, driven by the greed to maintain her lifestyle.

If Adrian Law were not the eldest grandson of the Law Family, perhaps, no matter how good he was, he would be beneath Rosalind White’s notice.

Throughout the years, Stacy Summers had indeed arranged marriages for Rosalind White.

Even if Cecilia Vaughn had not married into the Law Family, Adrian Law’s indifferent attitude towards Rosalind White was evident even before. He had long declared that he would never marry Rosalind White in this life, urging her to abandon the thought.

Who would have thought, shortly after these words spread, Rosalind White had cried, yet only became more pretentious.

She even went around flaunting herself as Adrian Law’s fiancée.

Adrian Law watched her antics indifferently, unwilling to marry all these years, consequently allowing this woman to wreak havoc outside.

She was nothing more than an unaware scapegoat.

...

However, Rosalind White became more arrogant, seeing Adrian Law escorted into the world’s top university. Unwilling to lag behind, she sought Frank Law’s help to pull strings while studying desperately, squandering the Law Family’s money to pave networks, and finally entered the prestigious Vesperian Ivy League University.

She took advantage of this golden opportunity, merely to have passersby say they were a perfect match when she marries into the Law Family.

Such manipulation was not particularly clever, for without the Law Family’s resources to drain, where could she be so smooth sailing?

Adrian Law understood this truth, and Frank Law was not unaware either. However, his partial blindness made him believe that Rosalind White’s noble lady prophecy was real, thinking that sustaining this living deity would ensure the Law Family’s smooth path.

...

Even Stacy Summers, who appeared amicable to everyone, began to understand why Adrian Law advised caution towards this girl when Rosalind White stopped being the sweet, gentle girl she once was.

Stacy Summers sighed deeply.

"Ah, Rosalind grew up under my care, how did such a good young girl... turn out this way now?"

"Back then, she risked her life for you, with eyes nearly blinded by the scorching fire... She was such a sweet and kind child..."

Stacy Summers lamented, recalling the past, then glancing at her tall, handsome grandson, she felt some gratitude towards Rosalind White. Aside from bringing her up, setting aside her transferred affections from Nancy Law, at least Rosalind White had saved Adrian Law’s life.

...

Hearing Stacy Summers’ words, Adrian Law smirked sarcastically.

"Perhaps, she never changed at all?"

"Ah?!"

Stacy Summers tilted her head baffled.

Cecilia Vaughn was amused by the elderly woman’s naturally naive demeanor.

"Pfft..."

"Cecilia, why are you laughing?"

Stacy Summers chuckled, glancing reproachfully at Cecilia Vaughn, then reached out her wrinkled hand to gently tap Adrian Law’s head.

"Alright, alright, I know you don’t like that child Rosalind..."

"But no matter what, she did save your life back then. Without her, you might have died in that fire. Even if Rosalind does wrong, she can bear the consequences, but I don’t wish for you to take the initiative to deal with her, understand?"

"What about passive defense?"

Adrian Law squinted his eyes, jesting toward Stacy Summers.

Stacy Summers naturally nodded.

"It’s not that you must wait until she harms you to retaliate; it’s always good to be cautious. If necessary, I think finding a match for Rosalind to quickly marry into would be best..."

This hot potato, within the Law Family, posed a significant danger.

Adrian Law sighed helplessly.

"Grandma, her father is still around, so when would it be your place to make decisions from afar?"

Besides, Rosalind White claimed she was already pregnant. Which unfortunate man would be trapped?

...

"Right, I completely forgot Butler White is still here... My faulty brain... Why am I stepping in unnecessarily..."

Stacy Summers cutely slapped her forehead.

Though her complaining tone was not exactly sulking, Cecilia Vaughn felt sweetened by her antics.

"Okay, Grandma, let’s ignore them. I’ll take you back to your room to look at those little things. Didn’t you say the gifts this time made you very happy?"

"Indeed... Our Cecilia’s taste and vision are always the best; this old woman is utterly pleased."

Stacy Summers contentedly nodded, then glared at Adrian Law slightly, extending her hand.

"Grandson, why didn’t you bring me any gifts when you came to the Law Family?"

Adrian Law flushed embarrassingly for once.

Over these years, indeed, he hadn’t been as considerate to Stacy Summers as Cecilia Vaughn.

Shameful.

"Grandma, if you’d like, shall I get one for you now?"

"Too late!"

The old lady stomped her foot indignantly, grabbed Cecilia Vaughn, and rushed indoors, leaving Adrian Law outside the door.

Adrian Law chuckled helplessly and then returned to work at the Law Group.

...

Cecilia Vaughn lingered at the Law Family’s old residence for quite a while, but as Fiona Vaughn might return, even if she hadn’t run into her, Cecilia Vaughn didn’t wish to stay longer.

"Grandma, I’m leaving, take good care of yourself."

Though reluctant, Stacy Summers had no choice, momentarily pressing a string of quality pearl earrings into Cecilia Vaughn’s hand.

"Here, Grandma’s gift for you. Such a bright color suits young girls, not this old lady."

"Nonsense. Grandma, you’re blossoming even at eighty!"

Though Cecilia Vaughn was flattering, her sweet words had the elder beaming.

"Alright, alright, go back now."

...

Cecilia Vaughn arrived in her own car, prepared to drive back to Starfall Bay.

Suddenly, her phone buzzed with a message.

——Sister, help!
