Bab 588: Chapter 588

"Ah—" Dorothea didn't expect her granddaughter to ask her to stay. So she was stunned for a second before she replied slowly, "Mackie, I still have things to do in my room. That's why I can't join you for dinner."

"Awww…" Mackie pouted sadly. "Then, can you join us for dinner tomorrow?"

"T—That I can't do as well. You know that Granny is very busy, right?"

"Umm…" Mackie naturally knew that her Grandmother was very busy. It was the main reason Mackie was never allowed to stay for too long with Granny in the Gray mansion, because she would have to meet with her socialite friends by three, and then to another party by five, et cetera. 

But it was still sad because Mackie expected Granny to eat with them daily since she lived in the same apartment as them, just on a different floor. 

"Can you at least eat with us for Thanksgiving, Granny?" Mackie asked. "Or Christmas, I want to open Christmas presents with you!"
