Hancock Manor.
Nourish Heart House.
Old Madam Hancock had been closely following her grandson's affairs with Ave Carlisle, so she naturally knew they had grown close recently. Although she liked Ave, Old Madam Hancock always felt something was amiss, since Ave had already been involved with another man and bore his children. Old Madam Hancock did not want her grandson to get entangled in another family's affairs, only to possibly end up in the wrong.
As a result...
"You mean to say Emma isn't born of Ave?"
"Yes!"
"And Ave never actually got married abroad?"
Flynn Taylor thought for a moment, nodded, and then shared some details about Emma's birth.
Although Old Madam Hancock was a tough person, she was also kind-hearted. Clutching her chest, she said, "My goodness, what a poor child, what a great mother. Very well, Ave is the only one in the world worthy of being called 'Mother' by Emma."
A gentle smile appeared on the corners of Flynn Taylor's mouth.
